In your "WHAT YOU SHOULD DO" section, you missed the most important thing.

Stop using LinkedIn, and stop using these terrible services that rip away our privacy.

"This Deployment has been disabled."

This is why people shouldn't use Vercel. The last thing you want is a message like this when people come to your site.

Exactly what I was going to say. Who wants a LAN port that is slower than the WAN port?

However this wasn't really true till 1.2 if I am reading the spec correctly. Plus many parsers default to 1.1. =\

Thanks. Didn't realize anyone thought this. I checked the YAML docs when I saw this post, and it didn't seem like an official feature.

The SAP article definitely states it, that's the first time I have seen it described that way.

I am confused, when was YAML ever considered a superset of JSON?

These are completely different serialization formats.

I have extremely fond memories of the ranch. It was what got Throttled Pro off the ground and was by far the best Objective-C resource I could have possibly imagined.

Aaron will forever be a hero in my book. Best of luck in the future.

I was one of those devs long ago. The shareware model worked wonders.

This model should be done more. Develop the product in the open, offer a fully functional open source version, and then offer a paid version on commercial app stores.

This can bring in some extra revenue for the project, plus covers the app store dev work.

I bet a bunch of users would buy it just to support the dev team. Plus I would argue an app store purchase (one click) can be done faster/easier than any donation flow I have seen for an open-source project.

Just something to think about.
