Re: Finer Things in Mac - Zooming in Snow Leopard, now with less sea sickness - http://finerthingsinmac.com/post...
"There's some weird interaction going on with a scrolling Terminal window when you zoom in. Try running a command like "yes" (which repeatedly prints "y" to the console) while zoomed in. There's your sea sickness!" - Brad Choate

AT&T, Verizon execs: we don't collude on SMS pricing - http://arstechnica.com/telecom...
This stuff is really infuriating. Especially for me and my wife, who have an AT&T Family Plan. We can talk by phone to each other for free and the plan has unlimited data service, but SMS? I pay $5 for 200 messages for myself and $5 for 200 messages for her. AT&T counts each message sent OR received against your quota, so sending a single SMS to my wife eats 2 of our 400 SMS texts per month. - Brad Choate

Why a simple product line is integral to Apple’s success | Edible Apple - http://www.edibleapple.com/why-a-s...
This is a post I've been meaning to write for some time. It seems obvious to me, and yet all the other big companies seem to miss this. Producing dozens and dozens of largely indistinguishable products does not help your product lineup. It makes each one harder to stand out from the others. - Brad Choate

The more real-world code I see of Perl 6, the less I like it being called "Perl". Can we just keep calling it "Rakudo" instead? - Brad Choate

Re: AntiSpam Plugins - http://andux.org/wordpla...
"We credit Matt for the WordPress plugin, since it is a derivative of the Akismet WordPress plugin. The TypePad AntiSpam API is Akismet compatible, so the changes were fairly minimal (mainly, making the hostname for the service calls configurable instead of hardwired for the Akismet server). Thanks for the review — we'll update the version requirements on our site match what is shown on the WP Extend directory, that it is compatible with "versions 2.3 and higher"." - Brad Choate

"@themexican: I think it still does, but you should explore the new Asset tags in MT 4 -- in most cases, you can use those instead of the old EmbedImage plugin." - Brad Choate
