		<title>bc Extensions</title>
		<description><![CDATA[More often than not, if I have to do any calculations from my laptop, I eschew the very fine GUI application PCalc in favor of bc on the command line. I also like to use the extended version, bc -l to get decimal places in my result. Like most bc enthusiasts, I have this aliased [...]]]></description>

		<title>Don&#8217;t Drop That Shadow</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As a coder, I spend way more time worrying about how something works, or how someone might break it, than on how it looks. I leave it to the designers to fret about that sort of stuff, and just make sure it&#8217;s usable and won&#8217;t crash when fed crazy input. (What my high-school physics teacher [...]]]></description>

		<title>Catching Up to Snow Leopard</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Even part-time freeware developers look forward to new OSX releases, but our software doesn&#8217;t always make the transition very smoothly. My screensaver &#8220;The Tube&#8221; is a bit of a CPU and RAM hog, so when OSX 10.6 broke it, I kind of bid it adieu and got on with other projects. After some prodding, though, I [...]]]></description>

		<title>One Two Three</title>
		<description><![CDATA[At a high level, all software development&#8211;perhaps all invention&#8211;breaks down into three steps: Build it the way you thought it should work Do it from scratch the way you should have done it to begin with, as you learned during the previous step Optimize step 2 from scratch so you can actually ship it. And [...]]]></description>

		<title>Tip for 1Password-Using iPhone Devs</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As if there aren&#8217;t enough other details to worry about, developing for iPhone has been doubly difficult for me because my provisioning certificate kept getting lost by Xcode. Exasperated, I&#8217;d delete/revoke/regenerate/reinstall, and it would work. Problem solved. For a while. Then it would break again. Even this Apple Developer Q&#38;A article doesn&#8217;t mention it, but my [...]]]></description>

		<title>Managing File Downloads</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My friends&#8217; band Surrender is heading off on a European tour. (Yes, I&#8217;m jealous.) In addition to their other merchandise, they wanted to be able to include MP3 downloads with their vinyl records, or even just sell the downloads directly. This is a service United Record Pressing offers but it&#8217;s a little, ah, invasive, and [...]]]></description>

		<title>iPhone Post</title>

		<title>Form Field Backgrounds</title>
		<description><![CDATA[At the Day Job I was called upon to make form fields with rounded corners. There&#8217;s a lot of approaches out there, but most of them are a bit too complex for my liking. Generally, it&#8217;s some variation on the old-tymey technique of putting something in the center of a 3&#215;3 table, but with DIVs [...]]]></description>

		<title>Not Spam</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My friend is embarking on a tour to promote his new book. He&#8217;ll be on the road so email is going to be the best way to announce what&#8217;s going on to interested parties. However, sending email from his Yahoo! account to multiple recipients proved problematic: emails addressed To: a complete list of recipients raised [...]]]></description>

		<title>Wikipedia + iPhone</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Does anyone NOT want to write a toy iPhone web application? It was pretty much the first thing I wanted to do with my new phone. I messed around with some cool JavaScript gizmos, played with the resize-on-rotate thing, and&#8230;time passed. Today I was looking at Wikipedia and came across some information on alternate ways [...]]]></description>
