I’m always amazed when I see the bugs fixes listed in the BBEdit release notes. Not sure I can remember the last time I ran into a bug in BBEdit. I am, however, a big fan of the change to the un/comment line feature.

Just early enough to my meeting to almost get into something before I’ll need to stop and, well, meet.

However, over the past 10 years or so, an entrepreneur has implicitly come to mean someone who creates. A maker.
Interesting. The definition that has taken shape in my head is completely the opposite. “Entrepreneur” only means a “maker” to me in the context of a creating a business for an exit. It holds very little to me in terms of being a creator of products, services, etc. As you can imagine, I don’t consider myself an entrepreneur. I think of myself as a developer. But the main reason for that is the attachment to the “maker” concept.
As Dave and I explored this afternoon, “entrepreneur” and “startup” may be words that have very different meanings to different people.

I don’t read sites like TechCrunch, The Verge, Engadget, etc.; I skim them for information. I’ve subscribed to MG’s ParisLemon site recently and am quite enjoying it. As usual, what folks want to write about is more interesting than what they have to write about.

WordPress 3.3 support is hot on its heels. Really!
Looking forward to BBEdit support to follow as well – I should probably send an appropriate bribe.

What we should be talking about is how to get better alignment, how to build systems and content that is better for, you know, actual human beings to use and enjoy.
Great post by John.

“Bear proof garbage cans are required and must be latched when placed in the street for pick up.” Ok then.

Glad to report my FastMail.fm folders were recovered (was a folder listing bug on their end). No data loss.

When using WordPress post formats, you’ll quickly start looking for a way to query WordPress content by the “standard” post format. This Trac ticket seeks to work on solving this. The implementation there handles URL-based requests: http://example.com/type/standard/ quite nicely. However the code in that patch doesn’t (yet) handle direct WP_Query calls. I was hacking on…

Eric does a great video interview about the Lytro camera. I’m very excited to get one of these.
