We had our home inspection today, everything looks good. A friend of ours does home inspections; it was nice to be getting the word from someone we can really trust. I took a few photos while I was there, the view is really nice. We look back over the golf course to the mountains.

Last night was the deadline for the guys in my fantasy baseball league to turn in their keeper lists. This is the 4th season of this league and I’m looking forward to it. I’ve been able to win the last couple of years but the teams in 2-10 have scrambled up a bit. I had…

Now that I’m self-employed, I need to get some business cards printed up. Anyone use a place they would recommend? I don’t care where it is as long as they do quality work (and will work via web/e-mail/phone if they aren’t in the Denver area). I’m not looking for a huge quantity at this point…

I’ve released Tasks Pro™ 1.1 beta 2 to my Tasks Pro™ customers. This fixes the few reported bugs in beta 1. I’ll probably roll the new 1.1 release of PHP iCalendar into Tasks Pro 1.1 (and Tasks 2.0) and do one more beta, then a release candidate or two. It looks like I’m on track…

Found another Safari bug. It seems that Safari converts encoded characters when it processes them using JavaScript – this causes some problems and affects Tasks and Tasks Pro™. I encode characters like " (") and > (>) so they display correctly. When Safari loses that encoding and tries to insert the unencoded content into the…

We offered, they counter-offered, we counter-counter-offered, they counter-counter-counter-offered, we accepted. We should be closing escrow first week in April. We’ll do a little painting and change all the fixtures/knobs/etc. but nothing major. I can’t wait!

I’ve released Tasks 2.0 beta 1 to the people who donated on tasks 1.x. If you donated and didn’t get an e-mail from me about the Tasks 2.0 beta, please let me know. I’ll get a demo up next week after I fix any bugs reported in beta 1. This post is part of the…

First YAGNI, now IKIFNI. I’ve been there on this one too. This article about CSS problem solving can be expanded to cover a lot more areas. I often get questions from people along the “it just isn’t working” lines. Well, have you tried to isolate the problem? What is X doing? What is Y doing?…

I’m reading through the 63 comments on Matt’s code is food post and I inevitably got to one that mentioned that using CSS to separate content and presentation is a good thing. I’ve made this argument myself a number of times, but in many ways this is a farce. If you use CSS to apply…

I’ve released tasks 1.8.6rc1. This includes a couple of changes that should make the iCalendar work better and a change to PHP iCalendar that should put the tasks iCalendar into the ‘Calendars’ drop down. It also redirects more mobile browsers now. Tasks 2.0 development is coming along well, I hope to release the first beta…

Matt is quite perturbed over Lockergnome changing back to a table layout from a CSS layout. I don’t see it quite the way he does. The world is full of things done well and things done poorly. Something done poorly will often still work , but have a variety of drawbacks. This is what I…

tasks Version 1.8.6rc1 has been released. This adds iCalendar enhancements.

The house search was shorter than I expected. We’re writing an offer on a house in Arvada tonight, keep your fingers crossed. 🙂

It looks like Camino will have new “Safari-like” tabs soon (according to Bugzilla). I don’t mind the current tabs, they certainly do the job, but new ones will help add some polish. What I can’t believe is they seem to be emulating Safari’s ‘close icon on the left’ positioning instead of Firefox’s right hand positioning.…
