Xojo decided to change Feedback statuses on reports by essentially telling users less.
So instead of knowing what reports have been reviewed and found to be reproducible by their testing staff, which ones have been verified as bugs by development staff, etc everything is now just “Open” until one day it may reach some other status.… Read the rest
Suppose there is a software product that sells brand new for $99
And once you own one you can update it for 50% off
If you can attract 500 new users every year then you should go after new users since you earn more money than if 500 existing users renew. 2x as much.
Now suppose you adopt Apples full price renewal model ?… Read the rest
Over the years I’ve seen lots of people say they buy a license whether they intend to actually use it or not JUST to support Xojo.
If thats you I’d sure willingly accept what ever extra cash you have to put to things you wont use and I’m sure I can write you some in short order.… Read the rest

Some time ago I posted about making 2019r1.1 work on newer versions of macOS
And there are reports that a related technique can be used to enable older versions as well (post copied here for posterity sake)
I ran into this problem today when I wanted to use an older version of Xojo (2018 R4) on Monterey.… Read the rest
A couple years back I joined the Canadian Ski Patrol
Normally we’d have to requalify as a patroller every year. But since 2020 was deep in the pandemic at the time the CSP extended every ones qualification for a year.
So unlike most years we didnt have to do exams last year.
Which brings us to this year.… Read the rest
Many many years ago when REALbasic first wrote the IDE in REALbasic it was said
… Read the rest“We’re also ‘eating our own dog food,’” said Perlman. Previous releases of REALbasic were coded using the C++ language, although with REALbasic 5.5, the last significant update, the groundwork was laid to add pieces that were written in REALbasic. When REALbasic 2005 is released, the entire Integrated Development Environment (IDE) will have been recoded in REALbasic itself.

Recently I had both Christian Schmitz and one of my clients from Germany visit
Christian and I spent his first full day in Canada touring about to the Royal Tyrell Museum and some of the sights on thee way out. Weather was crappy so we didnt spend a lot of time outside.
At the end of the day we got together with several other Xojo users at a local restaurant and enjoyed a nice meal and discussions around all kinds of things.… Read the rest
