Today on AppAddict - Question for Developers About Updates - Why do some apps not cooperate with updater apps that use Sparkle or Homebrew? Does it cost extra money, or is it more difficult to implement than I am aware of? I've heard that you can't use Homebrew unless your app has a GitHub page with more t... social.lol

The first time we climbed this mountain, Whitetop in SW VA, was in 2013, and we discovered a group of self-described old hippies near this spot. They were having a gourmet picnic and insisted that we share it with them. Starving thru-hikers that we were, we gorged ourselves on brie and prosciutto.

On this day in 2010, I celebrated reaching 10,000 miles on my bike in a single calendar year. I'd lost 100 lbs the year before and was coming up on two years of sobriety. Good times, fondly remembered #Cycling

"The Use And Abuse Of Printers In The Enterprise" should be the title of my first book. If there was one problem that would absolutely make some people freak the fuck out, it was not being able to print. It's 2025 and some folks still think they have to kill tree to get work done.

It's been a busy week. We're heading to Costa Rica in a few days, which should be awesome. It will be my first trip to Latin America. I just got diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes, so I'm learning how to manage that. Still on a continuous hunet for good books, movies and apps/
