UISplitViewController Question

Brent Simmons asks about dealing with three-level hierarcy in an adaptive split view controller (presumably for Vesper this means Tags and Note list on the left, Note details on the right).

His answer so far is here: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/797aa235dffcf9ed15e3.

And — bonus — @FriedLemur has the tip of the day (regarding DerivedData):

Option key turns Clean into Clean Build Folder, pretty much rm -rf

That’s so much better than me trying to remember where the DerivedData folder actually is.

Quick tip for developers who use OS X

Quick tip for developers who use OS X

On 25 July, 2010, I saw a Daring Fireball link to a Superuser page with a growing collection of Terminal Tips and Tricks for Mac OS X.

Today when I woke up and skimmed through the front page of Hacker News – a “Quick tip for developers who use OS X” caught my eye:

OSX Terminal: hold option and click a position in the current line to move your cursor to that position. #yearslost

It’s truly amazing how small the Internet can be sometimes.
