zoho.com is pretty good

The chrome setting is behind a config flag.

STS (Security Token Service) can generate credentials with much finer-grained control than just access to a whole bucket. You can require user authentication, do rate limiting, and set expire times. To allow a client to upload an image, for example, you can generate credentials that only grant privileges to a specific file location. It's much better than embedding master IAM credentials in a client.

They're signed with the same distribution keys and have the same app identifier prefix, so they have access to the same shared keychain storage on the device.

How about the worst score for an unambiguous name? I got 56.3% male for "David".

Did you make the "purchase" from your device or from iTunes on your computer? It's never worked when I've tried from a device.

Apple only offers older versions of your app to users that have previously purchased it. New users will still get the traditional "this app requires iOS 7" failure message.

I do live in SF and can confirm that we have a serious poop problem.

leetspeak for "elite"

#777 on a white background is still not enough contrast.

Awesome! I requested a DUNS number a couple weeks ago and planned on just waiting it out, but it looks like Apple already has my number after all. Thanks for the link.

With S3, yes. However, the CloudFront CDN works great for gzip now with web-backed distributions, assuming things are configured properly on your end.

It's not about the money. It's about performance. Speaking for myself, scroll-jitter is completely unacceptable at any price.

They all come with an extension cable if you don't want that.

"iPod touch" is the correct capitalization. http://www.apple.com/ipod-touch/

Renters. Lockitron isn't viewable from the outside.

I've successfully restored and migrated from my Time Machine backup, so I don't think there's currently any widespread issue.

It's actually iOS 4.3+

No, you sell someone else's shares immediately and promise to buy them back to replace them in the future. You're right that it's basically an IOU, but you got the order backwards.

Right. Visual voicemail just gets disabled. When you tap the voicemail tab, it starts a phone call to your Google Voice mailbox.

I did do this on Sprint, and I didn't like it for the reasons I stated. Google Voice numbers can only receive MMS from Sprint numbers. That effectively means I can't tell people to MMS me, since I don't always know what carriers they're on.

All previous messages in an SMS thread will be marked read each time you reply, so it's actually not so bad.

That said, there are even more downsides: no iMessage, no MMS, and increased latency for both SMS and voice in particular.

I'm in the process of porting my number away from Google Voice now. It was fun while it lasted, but I'm ready to be a first-class citizen again.

That's a fair observation, but you must admit it takes more effort to tap with a thumb fully extended like that. Especially taking precision into account, since you end up tapping with the flat part.

He tried two devices and liked one more than the other. That's not rationalization; it's just reality.

The author states that the iPhone screen is perfectly sized to allow your thumb to reach the opposite edge. You seem to be agreeing with him.

I think you got his argument backwards.

The advice here is to sit for 20-30 minutes at a time and then take a 2-minute walking break. This sort of schedule happens to correspond nicely with the Pomodoro Technique, which suggests 25 minutes of work followed by 5-minute breaks.
