As strongly recommended. Luckily I haven't been hit by the attack that's been going around.

Any problems, please let me know.

Apple used to bundle developer documentation with releases of Xcode, but as the docs started to get updated more frequently, it made more sense to have us download them separately. This means that when you install Xcode for the first time, you do not yet have a local copy of the docs. You have to go get them.

The way you install or update your docs depends on which version of Xcode you're using:

• If you're using Xcode 3.2, go to the Documentation pane of the Preferences panel.
• If you're using Xcode 3.1.x, go to the Documentation window, which you can open from the Help menu. If there's an "Update" or "Subscribe" button next to the Core Library docset, click it. Otherwise, use the gear menu in the lower left corner to manually update the docset.
• If you're using Xcode 2.5, this bug doesn't affect you, but it's a good idea to keep your docs up to date anyway. As in 3.2, go to Preferences -> Documentation. Make sure to restart AppKiDo so it can reparse the docs.
• If you're using an Xcode older than 2.5, you should really, really upgrade.

Peter Hosey describes a way to get the docs using RSS, which you might prefer for one reason or another. Come to think of it, I might find this useful for archiving past releases of the docs, for testing AppKiDo with.

Lawrence O'Donnell writing for TIME:

If the subject does any of those [physically threatening] things, cops always write it out with precision. When they've got nothing, they use phrases that mean nothing.

This was key for me. It's not just that the phrase "tumultuous behavior" is vague. It's that the lack of specifics tells us there were no specifics. In this case, absence of evidence is evidence of absence.

Also:

The president was right when he called the arrest stupid. It doesn't mean Crowley is stupid. It means that, in that moment, he made a stupid choice. Barack Obama has made some stupid choices on occasion too. We all do. Everyone who is defending Crowley's arrest, including his union, needs to re-read his report. There is a crime described in there. In fact, Sergeant Crowley's report is a written confession of the crime of false arrest.

I think this is a very fair take on the situation.

Wow. I really like Zappos. Good for them.

Clever. Peter Hosey uses OmniWeb to browse the docs. Watch the video to see how slick it is.

[Edited to add a mention of OmniWeb, so I can find this post more easily in the future.]
