		<title>Snow Leopard upgrade, Firefox crash</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I ran across a problem that only seems to happen to people who use Firefox 3.5 (maybe other versions) with profiles (which I do, to separate dev plugins/links from the rest) who upgrade a Mac to Snow Leopard.
When you start Firefox from the command line with:

/Applications/firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox -P whatever &#038;

&#8230;you get a crash that complains about [...]]]></description>

		<title>Paint Experiments</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I spent the afternoon painting.  I wasn&#8217;t feeling energetic (or skilled) enough for an ambitious project, so as an exercise I tried imitating some of the abstract styles I see around.
Piece #1 out of this effort is &#8220;Agent Lee&#8221; (8&#8243;x10&#8243;, oil and acrylic on canvas board):

(Yeah, not the best photograph.  I have limited [...]]]></description>

		<title>Kanye vs. Taylor Swift &#8211; FIGHT!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[If you caught MTV&#8217;s Video Music Awards last night, you probably saw Kanye West grab the mic out of Taylor Swift&#8217;s hand during her acceptance speech and rant about how much better Beyonce&#8217;s video was.
Yeah, seriously.  Does he not know that most of the people voting for these awards are bubblegummers?
Anyway, this one&#8217;s for [...]]]></description>

		<title>Free MacBook Drawing</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The exceptionally nice people over at PowerbookMedic.com are giving away a free MacBook.  Details are here.  Even if I don&#8217;t win it, I may take an interest in their stock of stock of pre-owned Macs.
It&#8217;s sad that this is my first blog post after so long without writing, especially with all the cool [...]]]></description>

		<title>Nerd Trick of the Day &#8211; iTunes Move</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Problem:  The main drive on my Mac Mini was filling up, but I needed room to install more development tools.  The main culprit, of course, was iTunes &#8211; between the music, tutorial videos, and language lessons, it adds up.  And I&#8217;m not deleting any of it.
The Non-Solution: iTunes has a preference [...]]]></description>

		<title>In Lieu of a Real Blog Post&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Besides my technical exploits, I haven&#8217;t had a whole lot to share here.  (Though after the current round of projects, I plan to get back to painting in a serious way, so watch this space if that turns your crank.)
Things on the software side have been buzzing, though, and in light of that I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Tuesday Talk</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A note for interested parties:  I&#8217;ll be giving a short (10-15 minute) talk on using Ruby with Hadoop for distributed computing.  The plan is to give an ultra-brief description of the MapReduce algorithm and Hadoop, show 2 examples of working code (including one with Wukong, Flip Kromers Hadoop Streaming wrapper), and closing notes [...]]]></description>

		<title>You Do Design to Change Behavior</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Ross Popoff put up a short and sweet post that should give creative/builder types food for thought for days.  The basic insight: You design to change the user&#8217;s (or viewer&#8217;s, or reader&#8217;s&#8230; &#38;c) behavior.
I think I&#8217;m gonna put that on a stickynote on my wall.
