Sun Microsystems wants to simplify Java for developers and get more of them involved in its evolution. "We as a community -- not just Sun --
need to make Java easier to develop to and get it out to the masses of developers to make Java successful long term," said Ingrid Van den Hoogen, director of Java marketing, during a recent interview with DevX. "Ease of development is always an issue that comes up, and we want to address that head-on." [DevX.com]
Hmmm, took them 8 years to figure that out, eh?
A Fraternity brother and good friend of mine is sailing the south seas with his family right now. Today, he sent some pictures of the their stop in the Galapagos Islands. These pictures are awesome - made me sad to be at work today - and I thought I'd share the love...
I was able to quickly (think batch mode) resize these images using the image resizer I found at www.imageresizer.com.
Like James, there's probably a Tivo Series 2 in my future. However, we've also looked at buying a DVD Recorder. So my question is: Is there a DVD Recorder that is Tivo-enabled? It'd be awesome if there were - two birds with one stone.
I'm taking my laptop (mini-me) to my local Apple Store today. I've got a couple of hardware issues that I'm hoping they'll fix.
- When I press on the bottom right corner of the keyboard (near the corner of the panel), there's a clicking and I can press down about 1/8th of an inch.
- I tripped while carrying mini-me a couple of nights ago and broke one of the hinges to the screen.
I hope they'll fix these issues as it's still under warranty, but don't know if they will. Has anyone else had similar hardware problems that they've gotten fixed (through Apple or via other means)?
I hope I can beat the crowd and maybe even get an iPod.
