  • Good reasons to read Ars Technica

    Fortunately, we were able to re-solder the USB connector back to the PCB and continue testing.

    How many websites would bother doing this, and more to the point how many websites have reviewers who could do this?

  • SQLEditor 1.6

    The SQLEditor 1.6 public beta has been available now for about 3 weeks and I’m getting more hopeful about a final candidate release.

    SQLEditor 1.6 is required for Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard support, but because major sections needed rewriting to get this compatibility, there are also improvements to the core of the application.

    There is a brand new SQL parser which is based on ANTLR and a new, more extendible, export system. Plus there are lots of other improvements in both user interface and functionality.

    Best of all, it’s going to be a free upgrade for existing SQLEditor customers.

    The beta is currently at version 1.6b7 but 1.6b8 will probably be out very soon.

    I hope that you like it.

    🙂

  • Criticism

    I just saw this comment while reading an article about David Letterman:

    This article is poorly done. It uses sweeping generalizations, it is factually incorrect in several areas, and shows a general misunderstanding of television. …

    I  enjoyed reading the article anyway, but should I have done?
