This could really be something else. I signed up and am #777 in line. I'm assuming this will be more worth the wait than Mailbox - and probably delivered about the same time.

The build, check, tweak, rebuild is certainly the most time consuming part of any iOS development. This is a really great enhancement.

There is already an example project on Github using Cocos2d in a RubyMotion app. https://github.com/anydiem/cocosmotion

While it can't do all of that, you Blekko let's you use slash tags like /programming or /ruby to limit your results to specific, relevant sites. Definitely my go-to for tech queries.

I'd highly recommend Blekko. It is by far the best alternative out there and they support tons of ways to get exactly what you need.
Additionally, they run their own crawler so it's not just rehashing Bing results, etc.

You are allowed to overpay the IRS. If he'd like to pay more no one is stopping him from sending a check.

I would venture to say that photo sharing apps are the PREVIOUS geolocation apps.
While they may be new as phone apps (as opposed to web apps), people have been sharing photos in a million different locations and ways for years (Twitter, Flickr, Facebook, Snapfish, OFoto, MobileMe, Picasa, Email...).
As it stands right now, I can't see Path solving any problem for me that isn't more easily solved by any number of already existing and wildly more pervasive tools.

This is true (and SFO in San Francisco does not use the TSA). However, even the 5 private agencies airports may choose to use must follow the exact same procedures set by the TSA.
So, while the TSA may not write the paychecks for those airport screeners, they do set the rules.

The author of the article is the one who rightly explains that the only thing that has made us safer since 9/11 is locking cockpit doors and the knowledge that passengers should not comply with terrorists. In fact, that last one was learned so quickly it disrupted the 4th plane of that very attack.
Everything else is security theater.

That's not a goal. That's a fantasy world.
There will always be a tiny fraction of people that want to harm others. Whether it is because they have an agenda or are simply crazy (or likely both), they will always exist.
We have the choice of whether we want to sell our liberties and freedom for the illusion of safety from insignificant, yet inevitable, risks.

What if your hands were rubbing all over the back like this patent? http://appft1.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO1&Se...

Some of the items are regional (east coast/west coast), but Joe Navarro is great. His book on poker tells is amazing. Reading it is like taking off glasses the next time you play a game.

jQuery is the library of the present. LOVE it.
It's made me look forward to writing JS in my projects, and that's saying something.

I'm not sure I'd use it to the extent of the original poster, but I can think of a number of places it could come in handy. Like the ruby(&:function), frequently that is what you want to do.
I would be curious to see if there is any performance hit. I wouldn't think so, but sometimes JS finds a way to surprise me like that.

Spoiler warning
When watching this the first time the facial expression at 2:29 clearly gives away the outcome. The pinched lips is a classic poker tell for discomfort in honesty. While in a poker game an experienced player can hide or mix in false tells, this completely jumped out at me.
