Tangentially related is the Yale Haskell Group's (well, mostly Paul Hudak's) project Euterpia: http://haskell.cs.yale.edu/euterpea/

You could achieve something like that using https://github.com/defunkt/dotjs

Lists in general are great for organizing thoughts. Being able to check items off the list helps focus thoughts and offload the overhead of keeping track of progress to something better suited to the task.

On: Moving and renaming files on GitHub

[mtodd]

If you want to do multiple renames in one commit then the command line is likely the best way.

Alternatively use this feature and squash them later when you have access to a terminal.

[mineo → buttscicles]

In that case you'd need to either force the next push because squashing rewrites history or use a separate branch to do the renames in the first place.

Pain points rule everything around me.

We design and build with Enterprise in mind. This particular feature has its own Enterprise-specific design considerations and challenges.

The best answer is: when it's ready, but not before.

There is no space allotment for users. Abuse, however, isn't tolerated.

Meme freely!

Apple won't be fixing this. Their approach is to recommend transit apps depending on your location instead.

[MartinCron → mtodd]

Which doesn't have to be a terrible idea. Explicitly encouraging transit app competition is great.

Now if only you could change the default handler for addresses to route to other mapping/direction programs. Once we get that, this teapot tempest will die out.

[fpgeek → MartinCron]

It is almost certainly a terrible idea for Apple.

Carriers already push iPhone alternatives for all sorts of reasons. It doesn't matter how good the third-party transit apps are. Not having transit routing built in is an "instant demo" for any carrier sales rep trying to push an Android or Windows Phone. And, last I heard, Apple sells far more iPhones through carriers that they sell directly...
