Just Another Victim Of The Ambient Morality

Quick braindump:

  • Heard about these crazy “pro-life” pharmacists on Radio 4 last night. Arrogant pro-life-the-way-I-say-so idiots.

  • Tiger is released tomorrow, and since this is a blog I have to list the new features I think might actually be useful:

    • Xgrid: apparently it’s absurdly easy to cluster Macs now. Xcode’s distributed compilation was neat, but this looks great (proviso the lack of documentation today; we’ll see tomorrow)

    • Inkwell: I shyed away from tablets because they looked like a pain in ass to use. No longer

    • Xcode 2.0: Remote debugging looks nice

    That’s pretty much all. I’m sure that the other enhancements are great, but I won’t be rushing out to buy it on the strength of this.

  • Buying a house == PITA (yes, still)

  • Where is FreeBSD 5.4-RELEASE? Well, there is a networking regression that needs working out. We have a pretty lengthy list of new features too. There’s an upgrade I can recommend.

Update: The aforementioned bug has been fixed, and FreeBSD 5.4-RELEASE should be unleashed on May 9th.
