The file revision history is - to the best of my knowledge - an OS X API that applications have to use (opt in). I don't think it comes "for free" with an OS upgrade, unless you mean Time Machine.

> I see five levels of paranoia: ... 5. Apple, complicit with the NSA, added it.

While it seems possible that Apple conspired with the NSA to add a security hole in SecureTransport, I doubt it. According to sources in the article, this bug was introduced in iOS6; and I haven't heard a mention of it until yesterday, despite it being open-sourced (http://opensource.apple.com/source/Security/Security-55471/l...).

Since nobody was raging on the internet about this bug, I see it as a good-faith effort by Apple to fix a bug that they've just discovered.

Consider this: it was only at the end of December when Appelbaum showed some documents about iPhones being hacked by the NSA, and it made a pretty big splash in the media. I think it even forced Apple to respond at the time. Especially if this was open sourced, and everyone could see they fixed it, they wouldn't immediately try to plug the bug/backdoor after that piece of news came out, especially with such a weird bug.

Those documents were about NSA bein able to plant a malware on a iPhone (1st generation) when given physical access. I would say it has nothing to do with this TLS bug

If you purchased this with a credit card, you may be able to use the card's warranty. Many credit cards come with an extended warranty service and dispute resolution/fraud protection as a customer incentive (in addition to their points/frequent flier miles/whatever). Even if this is not covered under your card's extended warranty, talking with your credit card company may allow you get the charges reversed.

And here I am, just trying to find notched Dvorak replacement key caps for my MacBook Pro...

I subscribe to this and NSHipster. What other Obj-C resources do you follow?

Mike Ash's articles are the most in-depth I've seen.

Yikes, that index page is incredibly hard to read, the actual content pages are much easier to read though. Looks like a solid resource, thanks.

It's worth it to go through the archives of Friday Q&A on Mike Ash's site.

There's also iOS Dev Weekly (http://iosdevweekly.com/) a curated newsletter with links to happenings in the iOS space.

http://inessential.com has some good stuff posted.

http://iosdevelopertips.com has some useful stuff too.

http://macdevelopertips.com often has some crossover as well.

Just yesterday, my colleagues were describing having Stockholm syndrome with Java. Went something like: "It's really easy to make fun of, but the more you use it, the more you start to feel bad for it."

Not included in the poll is MUMPS. I had a job right out of college that required me to write all of my code in it. It was pretty much the worst thing ever.

As I've already gone to WWDC, would there be any benefit to going?

As someone who wasn't able to get tickets from network issues, please don't. :)

As an iOS developer, I always enjoy @Horse_iOS.

I agree. The phrases consistently end in a way that is never completely resolved. See:

"In less than three weeks you can be looking at things differently, more creatively, if you"

"Why many people achieve very little despite spending most of their time"

"The interviews can be shorter since you would have many"
