(no subject) [Nov. 20th, 2009|11:02 pm] 06:39 @tranqy @mzarra's Core Data book is a great way to get into it too. I picked up the PDF version a few months ago for an iPhone project. # 08:21 @nevali You had me ready to build a fire out back up until the 1080 part. If I'm lucky, my camera might to 720, but I doubt it. # 08:28 @nevali yeah, but it's a fire in back yard kind of day. At least it will be once this rain stops. Might end up building one anyway. # 08:53 @SteveStreza which is really amusing considering iPhoto uses that style for the Faces view. # 11:26 OK, seriously, WTF is up with Gmail lately? The web interface has been borked again all morning. IMAP & iPhone web interface are fine? # 14:15 gmail's web interface being down has forced me to start using Mail.app again. Still like some things better in Gmail, but may stay with Mail # 14:19 So, does anyone know of a streaming audio player that will let you tag/bookmark songs like Pandora does? # 16:22 so, Chrome "OS" is pretty much just Chrome the browser, running directly on the Linux kernel, with no local storage, and no base OS? HuWHut? # 16:25 OK, so it looks like there might be some sort of local storage. (Yes, I know I'm late to the Chrome OS party) # 16:38 @nevali And this is what everyone has been drooling over? # 16:45 @nevali I understand it's not easy, but it really just kind of says "WebOS desktop edition" to me. # 18:35 Screw it. My Gmail problems were due to not uninstalling Gears after upgrading to 10.6, & Mail+Gmail IMAP still bugs the shit out of me # 21:42 Loved "The Waters of Mars". Tennent may just be my favorite Doctor, even though (because?) he's so different from Barker. #fb # Automatically shipped by LoudTwitter Link Leave a comment

Couldn't have evev concidered this job without it. # 09:55 In other news, I killed my MacBook battery this AM. Worked all the way home yesterday & forgot to charge it when I go home. # 11:09 anyone else having problems loading the gmail web interface this morning? # 11:16 @nevali yeah, I first noticed about 3 hours ago. Seems better now. And the iPhone web interface was fine. # 13:53 @hypermac2 Nope, quite good actually. Just worked for 3+ hours total, and left it asleep and unplugged all night in between. # 14:59 I've heard there's a way to force Xcode to generate a warning at a certain point as a type of reminder, but I can't remember how. Anyone? # 22:12 @mitchcohen just be glad it's free. Last time I checked for wifi at a rest stop, it was McDonalds' pay service. # Automatically shipped by LoudTwitter Link Leave a comment

FTP usage is still a major fail waiting to happen though. # 08:33 @chucker no, just httpd and the user who owns the WP install have to be in the same group. And the user has to be able to login via FTP. # 08:34 @chucker still not great though. That's why I just use SVN to keep my WP install up to date. # 08:42 @chucker do you still use te zip files for plugins? I've had a hell of a time finding SVN repos for the ones I use. # 09:23 Awsome! A twitter client for Mac System 6 - OS 9: bit.ly/14wxXu # 12:24 Whew. Thought I left my iPhone sync cable at home, but it had just fallen to the bottom of my backpack. # 14:25 Never thought I'd have to worry about afternoon in my eyes with a window facing north east. # 14:26 Unfortunately, the building across from us has a lot of glass, and reflects the sun right at me. # Automatically shipped by LoudTwitter Link Leave a comment

Stupid, but that's why. # 09:54 @arepty Like I said, stupid, stupid policy. The Safari argument was made over and over again when this first started. # 10:51 Getting spoiled by this weather lately. Feels more like early October, than mid November. #FB # Automatically shipped by LoudTwitter Link Leave a comment

(no subject) [Nov. 12th, 2009|11:02 pm] 11:58 I hate it when I'm coding, and a word starts to look misspelled, even though it isn't, because I've been typing/seeing it too much. # 18:11 Had my first interview as one of the interviewers a little while ago. Definitely a different experience. #fb # 18:51 On the red line headed to Cocoaheads. Apparently AT&T has repeaters down here. # Automatically shipped by LoudTwitter Link Leave a comment

(no subject) [Nov. 11th, 2009|11:01 pm] 07:57 I think I'm going to have to plan on hitting the office around 10. Trying to make the 7:49 from Grafton is going to be near impossible #fb # 09:05 So, apparently the Wi-Fi on the MBTA Worcester line is about as reliable as tin cans and string. Great. # 09:40 @mmartel Nah. It's just gonna take a little trial and error to figure out the best schedule for when I'm in the office. # 09:41 @mmartel and actually, since about 5 minutes after I posted about the Wi-Fi, it's been fine. # 10:24 @mmartel so far, it's great. And really, flakey Wi-Fi on the train might help me focus on work a little more :-) # 10:53 @mattgemmell Good to know I'm not the only one still having trouble keeping my vi muscle memory out of other apps. # 14:27 @janeylicious good to hear I'm not the only one that feels that way. It's bad how many people have no idea who Ken Thompson is today. # 14:29 Just got back from seeing what will soon be the new @ApperianCorp offices. Can't wait to move in. # Automatically shipped by LoudTwitter Link Leave a comment

(no subject) [Nov. 10th, 2009|11:03 pm] 06:32 Sweet! Got my confirmation for the NYC tech talk last night. # 08:45 @jeff_lamarche same here. Now to see if I can get work to pay for a room for the night, or if I'm coming back to CT late that night. # 08:48 @kdaigle a local office would be nice, but then again, I am working from home today. # 08:52 @kdaigle I can understand that. Where's the new office? # 08:58 @kdaigle Nice spot. Congrats! # 09:36 One of my favorite new things in Xcode 3.2's doc viewer? The "Open in Xcode" button for sample code. # 12:09 @lapcat What did I miss from Apple yesterday? # Automatically shipped by LoudTwitter Link Leave a comment

I'm looking at adding Core Data to a project, and NSFetchedResultsController looked like the way to go. # Automatically shipped by LoudTwitter Link Leave a comment

(no subject) [Nov. 7th, 2009|11:02 pm] 09:06 @tranqy that's one of the reasons I've never tried out Python. Well, that, and Perl, Ruby and Obj-C have served me well so far. # 09:22 @tranqy it's actually pretty popular in science circles too. When I worked at UTRC most of the researchers used Fortran or Python. # Automatically shipped by LoudTwitter Link Leave a comment

(no subject) [Nov. 6th, 2009|11:01 pm] 09:18 Last day at my current job. Starting Monday, I'm a full time iPhone dev at @apperiancorp. # 09:36 @mmartel not relocating. 2-3 days a week from home, and the rest at the office in Boston. It'll be nice to already be in town for Cocoaheads # 09:50 @uconntam or, you know, just talk them all into using 1-800-GOOG-411. # 10:48 This day is going to go so slow. I've got pretty much everything tied up, but I can't really leave early. # 14:44 @mmartel I spent 3 years driving over an hour each way to Groton everyday. 30 min driving & 1 hr on the train a few days a week is nothing # Automatically shipped by LoudTwitter Link Leave a comment

(no subject) [Oct. 20th, 2009|11:00 pm] 10:20 @tranqy @atothestar I second keeping the mini. I've had one sine they first came out. Makes a great little home server/home theater box # 10:28 Definitly something odd with my 3GS battery. It's droping quickly, but hanging out at certain points forever. Oddly, one of them was 42%. # 10:33 I really need to get back to working on my software. Unfortunatly this day job keeps getting in the way. # 11:02 @nevali I assume there's still no AVRCP support though? If I can't use the play/pause/skip buttons, A2DP is useless to me. # 11:18 @nevali Yeah, but from what I've heard, iPhone/iTouch don't fully support AVRCP, just play/pause, no skip. # 11:22 @nevali if the volume controls work, maybe they fixed AVRCP in 3.1 # 11:28 And now my 3GS has been stuck at 14% for well over an hour. And I'm actually trying to run down the battery. # 11:49 Rebooting te 3GS got it back to 34% & moving normally. Last charge was 18 hrs ago and I've been listening to Pandora all morning, not bad. # 14:07 Love it when a genius playlist is this good. 3DG's "Riot" followed by "Until the End" by BB. And it just keeps going from there. #fb # 16:47 I really hate it when some douche comes into something a the last step and royally fucks up everything. Fuck off! # 17:49 @atothestar both really. And for that purpose, they are fairly well spec'ed. My 2005 G4 model does fine with anything other than HD video. # 18:14 @atothestar For me, the lack of firewire killed it. Even if the only time I use it is for migration from my previous Mac. # 20:52 @mdhughes so what does it say about the industry that someone like @jwz is slowly buying more & more apple gear? # 21:28 @mdhughes You know, that's one of the reasons I got rid of Linux on the desktop too. # Automatically shipped by LoudTwitter Link Leave a comment

I heard rumors about 3.1.1, but mine was fine until 3.1.2. # 14:25 Do What You Love: "anything you work on changes you. If you work too long on tedious stuff, it will rot your brain" j.mp/18Emoe #fb # 14:37 Definitely something screwy with the battery (or how the phone keeps tabs on it) on my 3GS. Just went from 19% -> 3% -> OFF in 30 seconds # Automatically shipped by LoudTwitter Link Leave a comment
