Everyone needs a good UNIX quick reference for the times you cannot remeber the command you need, but you know exists, and I recently found a good one, good enough to bookmark until I compile my own. The Univeristy of Washington’s Quick Reference: Unix Commands
Over the weekend I had the pleasure of doing a clean install on my Cube. (Apple, I love the specs section, but I am not crazy about the PDFs, especially if you just need to see one stat) Anyways, I thought I would share what I have on my computer besides the standard install that […]
All I ask from anyone who reads this today is to look at their backup strategy. I thought I had mine down. I have an original iMac with a big hardrive that serves as my backup server at my house. I have a .mac account with Apple, so I used (past tense) Backup for my […]
Well. I often find myself looking for one thing on the web and ending up with finding multiple cool things that I ordinarily would not find otherwise. Here is a taste: Satan’s Landromat A really cool photo log. Chicago Uncommon Really cool pictures of and around Chicago. FileExt A web site that has a database […]
After a confusing day filled with follies of all sorts…I have to ask someone (because my answer is biased): do standards (both technical and personal) and hard work really matter? The day started off by me losing the last spot in my normal train parking lot to someone that I waved in front of me […]
Steve Jobs at his finest, and in a tux! Happy belated birthday (yesterday) Macintosh!. Without further rambles: the ever-so-wonderful mac video.
Well I got the call last night. One of my good friends (Ben you know who) called to tell me she is getting married in October…and that I am going to be a bridesmaid. (Yes, Doug you can have a picture). So today, I am officially start my training for Operation Sarah Connor: get fit. […]
This weekend, in between validatint my code, football, and SoCom II, I ran into a cool project that I think is worth mentioning: Darwine. For people like me that do not always have access to a PC but believes in QA for multiple browsers/platforms, there are times when all I need is IE for Windows. […]
When I first started creating web pages with using SimpleText or BBEdit, my code was super clean…it might not have been as complicated as it now, but everything was in it’s place and it was damn impressive to look at. Enter in GoLive CyberStudio (now Adobe GoLive). Lots of great features and awesome site management, […]
When designing web sites and then performing QA/validating I have found the Firefox plugin “web developer” to be invaluable. (I am finishing up jappler.com and my validation this weekend). You can easily view all your CSS elements, validate your CSS, outline tables, view page information, even view a page’s speed report. I would highly recommend […]
Well, yesterday after hours of frustration and CSS style sheet number three, I started thinking that what I wanted was not possible…not even close. Thoughts entered my mind like : “maybe I will forward all IE users to a nice web site on standards” and “maybe I could pdf my web site and make users […]
Well well. Who says you should settle? I decided to completely re-write my style sheet and I have almost everything down for both IE and Netscape (FireFox, Safari, Netscape) browsers. Some things I still need to look at are the bulleted lists on the right (blog) and some other details. I again feel like I […]
