For me redirecting my DNS to Google public DNS 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 did the trick.

I think Mattt can get away with this as he has the most well known open source library for cocoa development.

To address the "moving off of Parse" comment: The way I've dealt with this is to use the Parse REST Client instead of the Parse SDK. That way you're object model isn't tied to parse PFObjects and you can swap out the Networking layer if you choose to move to another vendor. If you control the full stack, you can even model your backend to more-or-less mimic Parse's Rest API.

iOS6 user base will be miniscule in a few weeks unless you are targeting corporate or education markets which update slowly.

Isn't Sublime text 3 still in beta?

Yet most Android devs I know use Macs....

That is completely irrelevant to this articles point of illustrating Objective-C bugs that are fixed by Swift. Nowhere did it claim that no other language had solutions for @Override

haha these answers are cracking me up. Who cares? Do people develop iPhone apps using Go? Swift never claimed to invent new paradigms that didn't exist in other languages, it simply brought them to Cocoa.

That's kind of irrelevant. The only thing that really matters since swift is built to natively support Cocoa, is was this possible in Objective-C (and to a lesser extent C and C++).

I stopped reading at the first paragraph. What an inflated sense of self to think that ones' own feelings after leaving academia imply a dire situation for all of academia.
