iTunes is infecting everything.
Downloading and installing the massive Xcode installer is a huge hassle if you just want GCC and related tools.
The osx-gcc-installer allows you to install the essential compilers from either pre-built binary packages or helps you create your own installer.
Upgraded to Lion yesterday, typed make, it doesn’t exist. Installed this, problem solved.

Jay-Z, Rashida Jones, Kanye West, Kid Aziz Ansari, Justin Bieber, Kid Cudi and Tyler the Creator
It’s like one of those awful photos that get taken at clubs, with people pointing vaguely towards the middle and pulling faces they didn’t realise they could make. Except here, everyone, minus Bieber, is at least 50% cooler than you could ever be.

Courtney Love does the maths for us. A great article outlining the artists side of the music industry in the fight to get payed.It’s piracy when the RIAA lobbies to change the bankruptcy law to make it more difficult for musicians to declare bankruptcy. Some musicians have declared bankruptcy to free themselves from truly evil contracts. TLC declared bankruptcy after they received less than 2 percent of the $175 million earned by their CD sales. That was about 40 times less than the profit that was divided among their management, production and record companies.

Artists want to believe that we can make lots of money if we’re successful. But there are hundreds of stories about artists in their 60s and 70s who are broke because they never made a dime from their hit records. And real success is still a long shot for a new artist today. Of the 32,000 new releases each year, only 250 sell more than 10,000 copies. And less than 30 go platinum.
The four major record corporations fund the RIAA. These companies are rich and obviously well-represented. Recording artists and musicians don’t really have the money to compete. The 273,000 working musicians in America make about $30,000 a year. Only 15 percent of American Federation of Musicians members work steadily in music.
We’re close. It seems Gocompare totally missed the ad skipping boat and just came in with their interpretation of the flaming baby skull.
Didn’t realise God was writing lyrics for metal bands now.
