Richardson software recently released a major new edition of RazorSQL — one of my favorite tools. This is a paid upgrade ($49), but well worth the money. Checkout the additions and fixes here. This is a product that I use EVERY day, well worth the money. I compel you to buy it ;o)

Hypercritical is ending it’s run BWAHHHHHH!!!
I used to listen to Sirius Radio in my car during my weekly commutes to the airport. VW didn’t offer Satellite radio as an option on my new Beetle, so I switched over to listening to podcasts while driving. I jumped around between a few of the usual suspects, Ted Talks and Freakonomics and […]
iPad Mini, et al
I ordered an iPad mini on the first Friday that it was released. I’ve owned several iPad models, the original iPad, and the “New iPad” (i.e. the third model). In the interim, I’ve also tried out the Google Nexus 7, which I liked a lot. I still have my original iPad, but I sold the […]
Working with MonoDevelop — and I don’t hate it.
Working with MonoDevelop on the Mono Platform in parallel with a C# course and a I don’t hate it. We have portfolio companies that develop on .Net and it is very nice to be able to work on .Net code without having to resort to running Parallels or RDPing into a Windows Box.
Got a new MacBook Air
Bought a new MacBook Air last week — it got delivered on Thursday. Connected the two machines on Friday night. The Mac Migration Assistant really works like a charm, with the exception of VPN settings and Microsoft Office. You basically have to re-install those two by hand after the migration. Connected the […]
mySQL Hack (aka Jim’s Friday Stupidity)
Made a classic, classic rookie mistake today. Actually, what I did was galactically stupid. Was converting/scrubbing data from a marketing list and loading it into Salesforce.com (SFDC). The SFDC part isn’t really relevant, but that’s the reason that I was doing it. One of my partners was in charge of loading data into SFDC […]
Workout and Diet Updates
Haven’t updated this page in a good long while. I’ve been working on an iOS Karate application (which I released in March). Almost all of my workout posts are at my wabi sabi kumite site. So click here for future workout posts.
It’s a miracle (albeit a small one)
The Wabi Sabi Kumite User’s guide FINALLY got released on the iTunes Bookstore. A miracle of fatima. ;o)
Mobile devices have essentially destroyed manners in this country.
Was in line at Starbucks this morning per usual. (Always a different city each week — but always a Starbucks). Woman in line in front of me was playing a game on her iPhone right up until the time that she ordered her drink. The cashier rang her up — THEN THE WOMAN […]
Waiting and waiting for iTunes Bookstore approval
I built an iPhone app called “Wabi Sabi Kumite“. (Ok, I had some help — but I designed it). While we were working out the kinks in the software I started working on a User’s Guide. You need an iPhone, iPad or iPod to run the software, so it made sense to put […]
