Some Links and Info
16 Aug 2012I'm not in a place particularly conducive to writing anything of a meaningful length, so here are a few things that might be worth reading.
- Joe Posnanski on the late Johnny Pesky - As always, Joe Posnanski pretty much nails it.
- Going between planes, wifi, 3G, no service, etc, I noticed my iPhone's battery dying rapidly. Turns out, I had a stuck iMessage. If you see iMessage always saying "sending" on a particular contact, start deleting your messages until you find the "stuck" message. Saved my battery.
- Getting your vim config under git - As a web dork, keeping my config synced across machines has been painful. I'd tried keeping them under git before, but never had gotten it quite right. This is the right way. So easy, and makes my life much nicer.
- TextMate 2 goes open source - I've never quite gotten into TextMate, but this is an interesting move. Will it keep being developed and supported commercially? (Maybe, given he GPLv3 license.) Regardless, building it to play around is pretty simple and probably worth it.
- WordPress 3.1 for iOS - For the first time, the WordPress iOS app is meaningfully usable, i.e. I typed this in the app.
