Commute

It took 90 minutes to drive to work, due to this terrible accident.

A car fell off the 198 onto the 33.

My morning is all screwed up, but not as bad as that guy's. Yikes.

Conferences

I'm headed to a conference in SLC in two weeks, and then at the end of May going out to the Ruby on Rails conference in Portland. Wish (e:James) could come, but the last time he came to one of these he was widowed all weekend :(

It is such totally controlling Microsoft/Sony style bullshit. As far as I am concerned apple is the new microsoft. Can you imagine if the web was treated this way and Microsoft had limited all development in web browsers to the select few who had paid for the access keys. If they cant even get it together to get out the dev licenses how are they going to be able to review all the applications? Guess what big business will come first and every niche market will be taken.

Back when Microsoft was criticized for locking the web into their OS I used to love apple because they were not like that. Now they have gone from embracing opens source technologies to turning them for a profit and locking the end developers out of the game. How is it possible even?

If the web on iphone is really the next internet this is a horrible way to go. Imagine if computers went this way. Where every application had to go through a commercial gatekeeper to be on a device.

jim writes at 04:29:10 03/14/08 - Comment #32752: I've seen posts from a few big name Mac indie devs that also haven't gotten in, I think Apple was just overwhelmed with applications. The SDK was downloaded 100,000 times which is crazy.

They better get their act in gear quickly and open more dev slots or they're going to miss a huge opportunity. As is, not being accepted into the program means that you can only test in the simulator - not on the real device which is just fail all around.

So, anyone up for joining forces and trying to win $$$ in the remaining month of the Android Contest?

jason writes at 03:23:45 03/14/08 - Comment #32750: Well, it wasn't a flat out "no" so perhaps in the next round you'll get the call-up. Let us know how it goes.

paul writes at 03:01:15 03/14/08 - Comment #32749: This is why apple sucks. Other people will have a bigger headstart and way more advantage now. its sad because you are the biggest apple fanboy I know.

jim writes at 02:41:26 03/14/08 - Comment #32743: There's this guy I know, Wayne, who lives in town and is amazing. He's on the core teams of some big Ruby open source projects. He scares me he's so smart :/

jim writes at 02:25:11 03/14/08 - Comment #32741: I'm just the most bloggingest ruby programmer in Buffalo, I could give you a several names of better Ruby programmers then me lol.

mrdeadlier writes at 02:00:21 03/14/08 - Comment #32739: That's absurd. Aren't they aware that you are the premier Ruby developer in Buffalo, NY??!
