##My Notes on Vine

Vine is an iOS only application that lets you shoot, edit, and upload a short 6 second clip. You can search twitter to find vines using the twitter api:search 'http://search.twitter.com/search.json?q=vine&since_id=MAX_ID' you'll get something like this (but with 15 results):

{
	   "completed_in" : 0.0110,
	   "max_id" : 2.982193446625239e+17,
	   "max_id_str" : "298219344662523904",
	   "next_page" : "?page=2&max_id=298219344662523904&q=vine",

"page" : 1,

Generate the list yourself:

$ cd /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneOS*.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/UIKit.framework/Headers

After spending the better part of the month implementing date support
in RethinkDB, Mike Lucy sent the team the following e-mail. It would
have been funny, if it didn't cause thousands of programmers so much
pain. Read it, laugh, and weep!

-----

So, it turns out that we're only going to support dates between the
year 1400 and the year 10000 (inclusive), because that's what boost
supports.

Here a quick thought of insanity before I leave the office at ~1.05am. I dwell and fret over design, particularly when its me making the decision, to the point of insanity (a recurring theme here).

If I have a base color, I use Adobe's Kuler to get matching colors (with some rule depending) or I checkout ColourLovers to use a platte crafted by someone with a keener eye than I. Similarly I use a typography calculator to define font sizes relative to each other and so on, so on. I have a whole bunch of these rules and methods I use so I can sleep easier knowing there is method behind my design choices.

Heres one I came up against just there, I wanted to put in a nice gradient as background in something I'm building at the moment, like anyone else who is a regular connoisseur of GitHub's trending repos, I stumbled across uiGradients ([Repo](https://git

Ello API

This is a basic exploration of the Ello API. Completely unofficial, your mileage my vary, don't smash their servers as they are likely very busy.

Methods return HTML for their representation where appropriate which is a nice little pattern. Everything returns application/json.

Like this:

{
 "id": ,

iMokhles

static BOOL tweakEnBOOL;
#define SETTINGSFILENEW "com.imokhles.Prefs"
#define PREFERENCES_CHANGED_NOTIFICATION "com.imokhles.Prefs.preferences-changed"

// non ARC

static void iMoLoadPreferences() {
    CFPreferencesAppSynchronize(CFSTR(SETTINGSFILENEW));
    tweakEnBOOL = !CFPreferencesCopyAppValue(CFSTR("Enabled"), CFSTR(SETTINGSFILENEW)) ? YES : [(id)CFBridgingRelease(CFPreferencesCopyAppValue(CFSTR("Enabled"), CFSTR(SETTINGSFILENEW))) boolValue];
}

static BOOL tweakEnabled = NO;
static void PreferencesChangedCallback(CFNotificationCenterRef center, void *observer, CFStringRef name, const void *object, CFDictionaryRef userInfo) {
	system("killall WhatsApp"); // kill app to apply changes ;)
	NSDictionary *preferences = [[NSDictionary alloc] initWithContentsOfFile:@"TWEAK_PREFS_PATH"];
	tweakEnabled = [preferences[@"tweakEnabled"] boolValue];
}
