Actually, this particular class-dump comment has been around in Mac OS X for quite some time, even going back to NeXTStep days.

It can be surprisingly amusing at 3am.

That method doesn’t sound very funny. It sounds more like someone being a douche.

Just sayin’.

Ah, but it doesn’t have the same connotations, something like “Ve haff vays of keeping you from using der zekret methods, dey are VERBOTEN!” (Read in a Colonel Klink accent for optimum effect.)

When the person with the sense of humor at Apple is discovered I am sure they’ll be fired!

“The practice of playing with verboten methods is heavily frowned upon”

Please use “forbidden” and not “verboten”!

I found out the other day that Automattic also has a sense of humor - they do something similar. I was messing around with headers, and discovered wordpress.com sending out a header that says “If you’re reading this, you should visit automattic.com/jobs and apply to join the fun, mention this header”.

One of my coworkers blogged about it here: http://bonzobox.com/blog/2009/06/wordpress-tricky-tricky/ (sorry, the screenshot is kind of borked).

No. Only one person at Apple has a sense of humor.

Comment on Long Live 3.5mm: HTC Makes The Switch by joe

Standardization is always better for products on these non-strategic, non-differentiating features. All it has done is create drawers full of cords and chargers that have not been used in years, but might be used in the future. 3.5 will always have a place in the world until Bluetooth X.0 finally becomes reliable enough to keep me from swearing at my phone for the crappy connections it STILL provides. I’ve gone to the extreme of wiring my car to avoid Bluetooth.

Do you want to buy me a Bluetooth radio or reciever? I thought not. My stuff already has 3.5 mm jacks.
