yahoo TV refreshed

I’m a little annoyed that the Yahoo! TV refresh last night broke my bookmarks. We’re luddites who’ve rejected Digital Cable and On-Screen Guides for the last few years – and Yahoo! TV has been our solution for that. But, oh well. I’ve got a new TV guide bookmark now, and all better. On [...]

painfully metalicious

I find this sequence of URLs almost as funny as the blonde joke: http://del.icio.us/url/?url=http%3A//del.icio.us/ http://del.icio.us/url/9a81616a6fdc3fd6cd432f0c3cce9b5c http://del.icio.us/url/b944c5e478a1e32dc71af722951498e3 http://del.icio.us/url/3ddb685e75e1bd74363748355dc30d2d http://del.icio.us/url/e2ca7a0b59613504f3b0658a1b519b33 http://del.icio.us/url/27209b794819a0dce0e3e970be2d1789 http://del.icio.us/url/cd0b24de440fe51b2797b125a33b60e0 http://del.icio.us/url/102ab8bb6becc7d3eac87f4c2707d0a9 http://del.icio.us/url/aec6c8de3d189f18cdd85798f36bf716 I’m also happy that del.icio.us uses MD5 hashes to normalize this situation. Update: I also see that Kottke beat me to the meta.

stickis and subethaedit icon

Update to the Update: The whole issue is corrected now! Update: In the comments on this entry, I got a quick response from TheCodingMonkeys and a quick response from Stickis. I didn’t expect either response, and was happy to see both. Nothing nefarious to see here, move along. :) Checking out Stickis from [...]

content sniffing sucks

If you’re using FF2.0 go here and you’ll see why.No, I don’t want to subscribe to a PHP template used to generate Atom feeds, thank you very much.Source: snellspace.com » Blog Archive » Content Sniffing Sucks I know this is just taunting the Happy Fun Ball I said I was done taunting , but there’s a [...]

macbook pro volume settings are aware of headphone presence

Something very cool I just noticed on my MacBook Pro: There’s separate volume settings for headphones versus built-in speakers. I had the sound muted for external speakers last night. But, when I plugged my headphones in at work this morning, the volume jumped back to exactly where I’d left it yesterday. [...]

XoxoOutliner and further outline addressing adventures

Revised the addressing code a bit, adding a few new kinds of addresses and getting ready to support sub-outline updates. That is, fetch a sub-branch of an outline and then later post a change to that sub-branch using the same address. Needs more thought – ie. what happens if things move between fetch [...]

XoxoOutliner and suboutline addressing

Here’s a feature I just hacked together for XoxoOutliner and plan to refine further: http://decafbad.com/2006/11/XoxoOutliner/outlines/README;text:Features?format=xoxo http://decafbad.com/2006/11/XoxoOutliner/outlines/README;id:native?format=xoxo http://decafbad.com/2006/11/XoxoOutliner/outlines/README;contains:Implement?format=xoxo Not entirely sure that this is how I want this to work, but these three URLs demonstrate the ability to address and fetch subsets of outlines. I’m hoping this will be a basis for selective transclusion in other outlines, or maybe [...]

XoxoOutliner shows some signs of life

Remember when I started writing about XoxoOutliner around 8 months ago? Yeah, lots has happened with life in general between then and now – but lately I’ve been working on code for it again. As you might see from my Trac timeline, I’ve got lots of new code checked in. And I [...]
