After using Adium for years and years I finally discovered what I consider to be the best shortcut I've learned in a long long time.
With Adium being the active window command + n will let you type a contact name and opens a new message window to that contact!
This tip is so simple it can be expressed with two characters, {}, curly braces. I've encountered this issue twice now. Once with some code in a project I work on as part of my day job, and once in a map reduce project I was evaluating.
As we all know the Ruby stdlib Logger class defines a bunch of …
A long time ago, Dan and I decided we should split off and do our own personal blogs separately from twologic. We decided that twologic would simply aggregate data from both our personal blogs.

It has been a while since I last posted and I just wanted to make a quick announcement. Version 2.2 of my Ruby style OO library is now ready for public consumption. It has been sitting around in my darcs repository for a good little while now. This new version is functionally identical to the ver…
This is a follow up post regarding the OO inheritance javascript library I blogged about earlier. I planned on submitting my original work as a patch to Prototype. Before submitting my patch at the rails development site I checked out the competition. I found a couple OO implementations already i…
