I love letting other people find this stuff first. I dont expect to upgrade to Mountain Lion for a week or two, at least.

I see proposals like this more and more frequently in the last few years. They frighten me. I don’t want a single entity (Google) to be the gatekeeper of how people access the web (though I recognize this battle has effectively been lost already).

SuperDuper! is already Mountain Lion compatible.

SuperDuper is one of the Mac utilities I trust the most. You’re not just trusting Time Machine are you? *shudder*

Selling out isn’t a dirty choice. It doesn’t matter what the deal’s details are, or the amount of money, or who you’re selling to. It’s fine. It’s business. If you want to take the money, take the money. It doesn’t make you a bad person.

I’m fine with this as a stance as long as you don’t try to blow smoke up my arse and tell me you’re in it for the product or “changing the world” at the same time.

For what it’s worth, I believe that this is something that customers should care about. I believe a license like this is a real solution. It affords developers the right to protect their product and make it commercially viable, but also provides assurances to customers that they won’t be left out in the cold.

Absorbing new information and allowing it to color your view of something – it’s disheartening how “shocking” this is in our fingers-in-the-ears-I-can’t-hear-you-la-la-la-la-la-la-la society these days. (thanks Mike via Shawn)

I recognize the logic behind the “guns don’t kill people, people kill people” argument, but it’s hard to see this tragedy happening without a gun.

This makes intuitive sense to me, but I’d love to see someone create example code that can demonstrate the performance differences.
