Script Meridian, LRI

Through an interesting twist of link I ended up on the old Script Meridian website today. For old times sake I trawled throught DOODADS, and came across what is probably the last Frontier script I ever released. Load Regexed Images would let you give it a regex to apply to a folder of images, and load any image that matched the regex into Frontier's object database. I was hacking Frontier a lot back then - 8/7/1998. (Background)


It's not the tools...

On another topic, Dori says "The answer seems to be in Apple support document #14449, [...] No direct link from here, unfortunately, because [...] WebObjects sucks."

NetStruxr has put out a new release of their excellent WebObjects 4.5 frameworks.

Tell us how you really feel

Overheard at work today: "There is no way in hell I'm touching [that] code."


"We're nowhere near maxing out..."

Tom Negrino at Backup Brain, to whom I think I have never linked, has some great tidbits about the iPod from Macworld: "We're nowhere near maxing out the power of the iPod's hardware."


Replies

Quick Note: I fixed the "replies" info on weblog posts, so it now includes direct replies to the post, and their replies.


Extensible Outliner for Mac OS X

You find the most interesting things on BlogTracker...


IA Slash

ia/ has an information architecture weblog, the source of some good links lately. I want to follow up on this one, on taxonomies, soon.


NewsFlash: H2 updating

My buddy Hans has a case of blogger's guilt, and has started updating again. Yay!


Hehe. I've got the #2 link on Google for "obj-c xml-rpc", and the first one that actually is about the Objective-C language. Coooool.


Stupid Soup

"I blame the soup".


F-Script

I saw O'Reilly's articles on F-Script a while back (1, 2), but had not had time to download and poke around with it. It's pretty sweet, andd the object browser is an incredible means of learning the Cocoa APIs. Wow. Have to work with it more now.

Micheal Sippey, iPhoto, and the command line.


Tape -> MP3

I'm looking for solution to a particular problem. I have source audio material on cassette tape. Assuming I have a machine with audio inputs, what sort of software (preferably free, or cheap) should I be looking for to:

  • rip the audio in realtime from the sound card to disk,
  • cut the file (it's lecture-style) into manageable portions, and
  • convert the files from (I assume) AIFF to MP3.


  • Between a rock and a soft place

    Jodi and I found a cool rock gym about 10 minuted from our house - it's also easy to get to from work so on my way home this evening I stopped by and bouldered for an hour or so. Oy! My poor noodle-soft arms! I am NOT in shape, and since Arizona has some of the best climbing in the US, I figured I better get back into shape.

    Solutions can be Mac or PC, as I don&[#39](http://monkinetic.blog/tag/39);t yet know where I&[#39](http://monkinetic.blog/tag/39);m going to be doing this. If you have ideas or pointers, please post them, and if there are any particularly good ones I&[#39](http://monkinetic.blog/tag/39);ll point to them here.

    Cool article about the design of the new iMac: an interview with Jonathan Ive, Apple's hardware guru and lead designer.

    You know who you are, both the good and the bad, and you know how to have fun... unfortunately, that sometimes gets you into trouble.


    Tom's Hardware on LCDs

    Must get back to this: Tom's Hardware reviews a bunch of LCD monitors. As one who's home CRT is threatening self-destruction, I need to check this out.
