I had never seen this $ref and $id tags before, so I didn’t know how to use them or what to make of it. It turns out that in order to condense the JSON object into a smaller object, it avoids rewriting an object twice if it doesn’t have to. In order to accomplish this, the JSON.NET serializer will serialize these special JSON properties of $id and $ref. Every object being serialized will get an $id. If that same exact object is used again somewhere in the same JSON object, it will use a $ref property to tell you that the particular object you’re looking at has already been serialized. It then gives you the $id to lookup as the value of the $ref property so that you know where to find the object being referred to.

Here's what that command means.� The ". /r" part says to look at the current directory recursively, which is why you must run it from the root (top directory) of your workspace.� Here I've specified "/noprompt" so that I don't get dialog, but that's optional.� The "/stopafter:1" option tells tf to print only one changeset.

It's this scheduling feature that appears to be misbehaving on New Year's Day. MacRumors reader Spacesamurai posted about his experience:

I am in Japan so it is 2013, and I am finding that my iOS devices (iPhone 4 and iPad 2) are showing "Do Not Disturb" even though it is outside of the time I set for them. Not sure if this is related to the new year. Reloading the devices does not help and the software is up-to-date.

Spacesamurai's experience has been echoed by others, but not everyone.

Apple has had other bugs in the past related to New Year's day. In years past, Apple has had issues with alarms not going off into the new year. Fortunately, the "Do Not Disturb" feature does not disable alarms set with Apple's built-in Clock app.
