Reminds me of Mike Neil's FishHack at the 2000 MacHack. https://tidbits.com/2000/07/03/the-machax-best-hack-contest-...
Nice. I remember writing a PostScript graph paper generator when we got our first LaserWriters back in 1985.
The current Mac version of what started as the PowerPC Graphing Calculator app can be downloaded from the Mac App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/graphing-calculator-4/id522175... The iOS version is at:…
I think 1% per year is insufficient for repairs. Even a paint job will cost more than that these days. There's also a potential HOA fee, even in many neighborhoods with freestanding homes. But there are tax benefits of…
Federal payroll taxes in the US are 15.3% (7.65% for each side).
They are pushing business-to-business service too, like ships, airlines, and retail/office backup. Plus smartphones can talk directly to their satellites. A lot of countries will use them for military use. Whether it…
My MacBook Pro M1 keyboard broke too and Apple wanted $900 to replace it. I bought a $30 replacement on Amazon and started replacing it myself. Unfortunately the repair was a bit too complicated for me, but luckily one…
The best book I've ever read on the topic was the classic Mac OS Human Interface Guidelines. I still recommend them even though some of the specifics are out-of-date. https://dev.os9.ca/techpubs/mac/pdf/HIGuidelines.pdf
The ones I remember most affecting performance were zeroing allocated memory and the Spectre/Meltdown fix. Also, the first launch of a new app is slow in order to check the signature. Whole disk encryption is pretty…
Very cool. Street names with an on/off toggle would be nice.
>Note, you have to click on the providers to see absolute magnitude I noticed that a little while ago too. Very bad UI. Tempted to post in r/dataisugly.
We had edge delivery issues when I didn't use my ISP's DNS, especially from Apple. Not exactly sure of the mechanism, but downloading Xcode would take 2 hours instead of 10 minutes.
Jobs brokered a $150M deal with Apple's arch enemy Microsoft in 1997.
PICT supported vector commands like FrameRect and FillOval, bitmap commands like BitsRect, and even embedded PostScript via PicComments. Version 1 PICTs: https://show.docjava.com/posterous/file/2012/07/9614411-DOC0... I…
Note this quote from the article: “Weakly affiliated Democrats had basal Testosterone levels 19% higher than strong Democrats and all Republicans.” So it's not as simple as "more testosterone means more Republican".
That's Roger Murdock. He's the co-pilot.
The one issue I have with SQLite's file format is that if part of the file gets corrupted, you can't easily recover the rest of the file. I asked Richard Hipp about this many years ago and he said that fixing the…
His aunt obviously had good taste. -Eric "The Grouch" Shapiro
It'll likely be very workload dependent. The M4 Max will probably do a little better in single threaded tasks like browser benchmarks and the M3 Ultra will do better in things like video transcoding and 3D rendering.
I still wish Sesame Street would let me write a modern version of The Grouch. -Eric Shapiro
Have you tried Tamsulosin (Flomax)? It seems to help a lot of the symptoms.
About 40 years ago my father, an oncologist, told me there were two common types of prostate cancer, the fast growing type that kills you and the slow growing type that doesn't. We've learned a lot about it since then,…
This sucks beyond belief. The whole reason I moved to Insomnia from Postman was because Postman uploaded all of our APIs and credentials to their server without asking. I have clients that demand privacy - we can't even…
Thanks for this. I had more fun writing The Grouch and another goofy app named VideoBeep than I did with 35 years of more serious software. -Eric Shapiro
