This has been a very long week for me. I’m pretty much dead at this point and feel like a walking zombie.  I glad the weekend is here to finally be able to relax by getting some work done.
Why was it so long?  Easy, I did something that I’m never, never, never, never going to [...]

Picked up Mario Kart for the wii.  No real impressions yet since I’ve only done 1 50cc circuit so far.  Only thing I’ve noticed so far is that I’ve missed the first turn of every race.  I keep hitting the directional pad instead of turning the wheel.  Need to get rid of some old habits.
My friend code is 0087-2707-0051

In the end it took me about 15 minutes to decide to purchase Rivet. It has fantastic performance and options, without cost to your computer’s performance, all for a mere $18.95…
It’s not often that I spend money on software, but products like Rivet that show an unrivaled level of polish make the decision easy. [...]

One neat feature of Cyndicate is the ratings feature. As you read each article you can give it a star rating from 1 to 5. You can then sort and organize articles by their rating. The rating can be set by either having the rating column showing in the article table and [...]

Cynical Peak Software wants to have some fun this year with the NCAA Mens Basketball Tournament. We’re announcing the first Cynical Peak Bracket Challenge. It’s time to see who has the best basketball IQ (really, it’s not luck, I knew the 16 would beat the 1). Prizes, in the form of software [...]

Cyndicate offers another organizational tool that’s similar to the filters features talked about in the last article, smart folder. Smart folders work like filters except that filters move the article to a different folder while smart folders show all messages that match the conditions without moving the articles. The articles will automatically appear [...]

In the introduction I talk about Cyndicate giving you more control and power over your news, but where does the power come from? A large portion of it come from the combination of folders and filters. The combo of the two allow you to set up how you’d like to view the day’s [...]

I’m going to start a series on Cyndicate that will cover features of it that you might not be aware of and tips on using it. My goal is to show you the some of the power built into the app and give an look at the concepts behind it. The later is [...]

I found a bug today with Xcode’s refactoring tool (radar://5723465) that could be a headache if you don’t watch for it. If you refactor the name of a method, calls to used through an @selector, like [self performSelectorOnMainThread:@selector(someMethod:) withObject:obj waitUntilDone:NO], will not be changed. You have to pick those up yourself. This [...]

On more than one occasion this year, Bill Belichick and the Patriots have run up the score on an overmatched opponent, and forced an opposing coach to sit there and watch his beaten team go through the motions while their heineys were being handed to them.
But when the shoe’s on the other foot, and Bill [...]
