So, I’m one of those people where I don’t like running things “too far” from what a production setup might look like (I code on OS/X, deploy to Linux). This is why I jump(ed) through various hoops on my OS X system to get Apache/Django/mod_wsgi/etc all up and running and happy (not for serving the [...]
Just a quick note – I’ve got 10 Evernote invites – if you don’t know what Evernote is, check out the Ars review here. Post in the comments if you’d like to test drive it. I’m going to need an email address. So far, I’m loving it – but I’m also someone with about 500+ [...]
Ok. So Sun has come out stating they’re starting work based on the SDK released by Apple for the iPhone earlier this week to port the JDK over to the iPhone. Quoting the sun rep: “Now, the iPhone is open” as a target platform, Klein said. The free JVM would be made available via Apple’s [...]
Because you, like me, are interested in writing some iPhone apps (and apple is only allowing objective-C stuff right now :sad:) – here is a free eBook I kept in my pocket for when I wanted to finally dive in. It’s call “BecomeAnXcoder” from CocoaLab
NetNewWire, my favorite feed reader ever has gone totally free: Brent Simmons on NetNewsWire 3.1’s Release as Freeware. I highly recommend NetNewWire for feed management on OS/X especially for the clipping/blogging features. I’ve never quite been able to “get into” online readers (much like my continued need to use an offline mail clients) but NNW [...]

This is an excellent post from yesterday – the author outlines how, using 10.5 PyObjC bindings and the Leopard Automator, you can add a “run python script” automator action. I particularly like his followup post on where he outlines how to use the new ‘run in python’ action to ship files off to Amazon’s S3 [...]
So, most everyone know that Apple released OS/X Leopard a bit ago – I was on the early adopter train, and have not had any problems (except for the occasional spaces crash because I mash buttons fast). One of the cooler things that came out with Leopard was a completely overhauled PyObjC built-in. Including Webkit [...]
After much waiting my iphone is all setup and configured i am going to have to get used to typing on it though. I have fat thumbs. And yes – it is as good as you’ve heard.
TextMate 1.5 is released! I’ll tell you this much – ever since I watched this screen cast by a guy using it for Python, I’ve spent a lot more time working on the more interesting language features. I’ve added a lot of stuff pertinent to my work in the snippets, tab triggers, etc. I really [...]
Ran across this app via version tracker: AlmostVPN – Trac It’s interesting – it’s an SSH tunneling manager that sits in the Pref. Pane in OS/X instead of being a standalone application. For those of us who have to VPN a lot, but despise things like the official Cisco VPN client (on any damned platform) [...]
