Some of my favorite Dos Equis quotes
He has been known to increase property values by 30% by his mere presence alone. He gave two words of advice to a waitress once. That waitress now owns an airline. He got pulled over in Texas once. After apologizing the cop wrote HIMSELF a ticket.
He left his favorite pair of cuff links on the moon…so he went back and got them.
Does anyone have...

Does Apple take away our freedoms?
Last time I checked, I had the freedom to buy or *not* to buy Apple products and services. I’m more worried about the gulf oil spill than I am Apple taking over my digital life.
I’m trying to remember a time where there was such hatred and vitriol towards a tech company. Seriously? The nerd rage against Apple has been a bit over the top as of late. Maybe that’s just human...

This is truly a terrible thing. What I’d like to know is whether this is being published because it’s Apple and that it happens in a lot in China factories? Or is this truly isolated to the factory works for Apple’s shiny products.

The Illusion of Open →

“Here’s the reality of the Android situation now: if you buy an Android phone, it will most likely be locked down by your carrier, possibly also with some features disabled. Or, to use Tim Bray’s term, the reality is that most Android phones that get bought are a “curated experience”. ”

How to automatically build an IPA file from XCode
Edit: I originally wrote this post almost a year ago to the day (before iPhone SDK 3.0). Be sure to let me know if these instructions no longer work for you.
I have long since forgotten where I first read this, but I hope this will help an iPhone developer looking to simplify the process for sending their app to their user(s) via AdHoc.

In May of 2009, the BigOmaha gathering rocked your socks off. A few months before the first BigOmaha, I got an email from Dusty one early morning… “…it’d be cool to have an iPhone app.” To which…

Why 3.3.1 matters to me
According to some sites on the internet, section 3.3.1 of new iPhone Developer Agreement reads:
3.3.1 — Applications may only use Documented APIs in the manner prescribed by Apple and must not use or call any private APIs. Applications must be originally written in Objective-C, C, C++, or JavaScript as executed by the iPhone OS WebKit engine, and only code written in C, C++, and Objective-C may...

Thoughts on BigOmaha 2010
First of all I must thank both Jeff Slobotski and Dusty Davidson of Silicon Prairie News for putting on such an awesome and inspiring conference. I believe BigOmaha 2010 was a huge hit and I am definitely going to BigOmaha 2011. I loved most of the speakers that they were able to put together.
I laughed with David Hauser when he was recounting his experience with rebranding Grasshopper.
