Apple Sucks

If your app won’t upload but you’re sure you’ve compiled it and signed it right, the fault might not be yours. For me, it was the built in “Compress [Folder]…” option – the archive produced from this might be missing files. You’re likely to see such errors as:

“The binary you uploaded was invalid. The signature was invalid, or it was not signed with an Apple submission certificate.”

“Icon specified in the info.plist not found under the top level app wrapper”

Seriously, Apple, what the f*ck? Thats 2 hours of my life lost because Apple couldn’t nail the basics: an archive utility. I’m so angry right now.

I was shocked and awed that my wife, Jem, shared porn with me on google reader:

and I suggest you read the post from xkcd, too. In fact, I suggest you read the entirety of xkcd. I coined the verb “to be xkcd’d” which means “when you discover a new web comic and like the latest strips so much that you go back to the very beginning and read every single strip until you catch up to date again so that you can understand all the jokes in the full context of the comic” – quite a necessary abbreviation, I think you’ll agree! With xkcd, the king of xkcding, I was actually xkcd’d twice – first when I first discovered it, and second when I realised about the title text…

And that bring me on to my xkcd reading tip: READ THE CAPTIONS – hover your mouse over the xkcd image and read the title text. Do this on the xkcd website. That Randall is a comedic genius.

Some of the captions are too long for firefox, so I have installed ‘Popup ALT Attribute‘ for Firefox which gives a larger ‘tooltip’ window.
