I was certainly not alone in my problem with Screeny recording nothing but a green screen. Interestingly I got the same results from Quicktime, which made me think it was a system issue rather than an app issue. When experiencing the issue, I was on my (retina) MacBook Pro disconnected from an external monitor. I…
I’ve updated GameTonight to show the time of the event. This is also included in the JSON API and Status Board output. No guarantees that the event times are correct, but they are faithfully represented from the data feed. This is something that I put off for three years because I was having all sorts…
It’s been very gratifying to see people continuing to discover Capsule this week, and seeing it resonate with them. This was typed into the demo earlier today: This software is an example of a thing that everyone wants but doesn’t exist until a great idea suddenly comes and voila! it appears! There are a couple…
I’d like to thank Google for the additional revenue we’ll be getting from future browser compatibility development and testing.
An interesting note about WebKit and Chromium’s multiprocess architecture.
One of the things I’ve done on this site is try to find interesting ways to leverage and expose my content. It started with Popularity Contest to give me a way of exposing the content that was most popular. Then I decided I’d like to have a way of highlighting content that I thought was…
Please remember, though, that there’s nothing better than a backup you make yourself. Take a moment to visit the Pinboard export page and grab your bookmarks every once in a while. They’re in a format that should import cleanly into one of my many competitors. Best of all, since those sites are free, you can test your backups right now. Go do it!
I’m a big fan of Pinboard (and of backups).
Hobbies are what the smartest people spend their time on when they aren’t constrained by near-term financial goals.
That’s how I got started contributing to (what became) WordPress.
There are two kinds of people, those that have already had a hard drive failure and those that will have a hard drive failure. I lost hard drives and data back in 2006 and I’ve been properly paranoid about backups ever since. I care about my data. I care about my photos, about my code,…
I’ve upgraded this site to WordPress 3.5 (rc4) to help test the media compatibility changes we’ve got in place for an upcoming release of our FavePersonal theme. Please let me know if anything looks out of whack.
I’m taking Thanksgiving this year as an opportunity to thank some people who have helped shape my career. Eric Cheng – Eric and I had the opportunity to work together once his company acquired mine back in 2000. Eric and I were the corresponding UI leads for our companies, and I thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity…
We recently added the ability to take RAMP for a test drive before you buy. On the RAMP page, click that “Demo” button to sign up and we’ll set up both a staging and production WordPress site for you – with RAMP installed and configured on both sites. You can log in, create and upload…
[...] since getting my iPad Mini I’ve barely touched my Nexus 7, and I’ve found the Mini to be just generally more enjoyable and useful for the lightweight sort of consumption-oriented tasks I’ve thrown at it.
The longer I use iOS the harder it is for me to feel productive on Android. I’m looking forward to getting my iPad mini and think I’ll probably relegate my Nexus 7 to a testing device for our front-end team at that time.
