That codinghorror.com article is great and is a must read for any developers on the fence about attaching a license to their open source projects. I have to admit I was feeling both awkward and douchey debating whether I should attach a license to a few miscellaneous projects that no one may ever even see.
"That's ironic, considering the whole reason I posted the code in the first place was so other developers could benefit from that code. I could have easily avoided this unfortunate situation if I had done the right thing and included a software license with my code."
Thanks for linking this. I just sent it to a few Project Managers friends. Along with:
"I find myself reading this while waiting for a build to QA. This is the time I have to write code. When the meetings are done. Meetings are important, but this is worthy of a read if you can schedule it in. Also, I'd be happy to discuss this over coffee."
Much respect to the software engineers who "Decline to participate".
"The disclosure session had yielded more than a dozen potential patents when an engineer, an Apple veteran, spoke up. “I would like to decline to participate,” ... The engineer explained that he didn’t believe companies should be allowed to own basic software concepts."
I've tried a number of apps to manage OSX's clunky alt+tab, but none have worked out long term.
The only thing that keeps me from trying Foreman is the "closing" of other apps. Like many other users here, just because I want apps out of the way, doesn't mean I want them closed. Is there no way to filter them from the task list instead?
You do make it clear on the site that Foreman closes apps, but I did come back to HN to confirm via the comments.
As far as I know, any app that's active on the dock will show up in the task list. You might want to try out Witch - I'm not 100% sure that it does what you want, but it might. Good luck!
