steipete··on Ask HN: I've written iOS Middleware. How to market it?
Thanks! This is superb feedback - I updated the website to reflect your suggested changes - much, much better!
steipete··on Xcode 4.1 now available free from the Mac App Store
And it's not the same as 4.1GM! 4B103 != 4B110. Everyone, get it from the AppStore!

steipete··on Moving to New York: a Guide for Software Engineers
I'd love to read the article "Moving to San Francisco: a Guide for Software Engineers" ... moving there in august.
steipete··on Lets just drop the 5 from Perl 5
Why? Isn't Perl6 the "new hot" thing? You could rename Perl5 to Pearl Classic. (see Python...)
steipete··on Symfony2: 2.0 RC1 released
I tried out Symfony (1.x) and I'm thankful for it. It's madness drove me to Rails, where I built some amazing stuff with! It was the entry drug that brought me over from php to the great (but at first sight scary) land of Ruby.
steipete··on Dropship — successor to torrents?
There was a direct link from the original webpage.

Here's a mirror: https://github.com/steipete/dropship
steipete··on Github: Goodbye Priorities
I second the priorities feature; it gets more important as the project grows and more "noise" is added to the tracker. We'll see how the otherwise in every way better Issues adapts to it.

e.g. https://github.com/pokeb/asi-http-request/issues is now sorted after creation date - really not the best way to sort the list.

steipete··on Settlement in George Hotz Case
Sucks. He should have gone down the road, fighting for his rights to legally hack the PS3.
steipete··on WWDC sold out in ten hours.
One more reason to use Twitter!

Wow - that's a total bummer.
steipete··on iOS Libraries
The Syntax for NSRegularExpression is really awful. Main reason why I stick with RegexKitLite.
steipete··on iOS Libraries
The list is quite crappy. E.g. :GData client" doesn't help you unless you really need it. If you search for the little things, like weak-linked yet self deleting delegates, or good image crunching stuff, check out PSFoundation.

https://github.com/steipete/PSFoundation

And if you wanna have it set up for you, just clone the app template: https://github.com/steipete/PSiOSAppTemplate

steipete··on iOS Libraries
You shouldn't have. I'm using UIAlertView+Blocks for years now. (PLBlocks in the 3.x times)

https://github.com/steipete/PSFoundation/blob/master/Utils/P...

Also check out PSFoundation, great stuff in there.

steipete··on Bittorrent over Tor isn't a good idea
They really just should block BitTorrent. It's overloading an already slow Tor Network with stupid people downloading porn and piracy.

No seriously. I know BitTorrent is also used legally. But there are other, less invasive ways to share files in Tor.

steipete··on Money Won’t Buy You Health Insurance
In austria, if you have your own business, you have to pay for the state own insurance company a part of your total income, which is usually a beween a few hundredths and thousand bucks PER MONTH. So don't argue with $50-$100 a month.
steipete··on Apple to Bonobo – Retina is trademarked, change your app name
They got the trademark, even if it's ridiculous, Apple won't back down on that one. Rename or get removed. Even if I don't approve that "Retina" can be registered at all. But so did "Windows" ...
steipete··on Geohot seeking donations for legal defense against Sony.

You are talking about Objective-C.

steipete··on FunctionKit: a brave new world (functional programming in Objective-C)
Some really amazing ideas in there, it's still quite young and the API may change, but it's already helpful!
steipete··on Apple deprecates Java
the only pity may be eclipse.
steipete··on Why I'm running a bootstrapping conference in Vienna, Austria
As with many things in austria, it totally depends how you say it. Written, it means "human", "good person" in general.

Only if you say it in a bad context, with slang, it means sth bad. (but not really whore... more like crazy person) "de oide is so a ménsch!" vs "er ist wirklich ein guter mensch."
