How Eating Grass-Fed Beef Could Help Fight Climate Change – TIME

Monday, February 8th, 2010
On a farm in coastal Maine, a barn is going up. Right now it’s little more than a concrete slab and some wooden beams, but when it’s finished, the barn will provide winter shelter for up to six cows and a few head of sheep. None of this would be remarkable if it weren’t for the fact that the people building the barn are two of the most highly regarded organic-vegetable farmers in the country: Eliot Coleman wrote the bible of organic farming, The New Organic Grower, and Barbara Damrosch is the Washington Post’s gardening columnist. At a time when a growing number of environmental activists are calling for an end to eating meat, this veggie-centric power couple is beginning to raise it. “Why?” asks Coleman, tromping through the mud on his way toward a greenhouse bursting with December turnips. “Because I care about the fate of the planet.”

Consolidation of Information

Tuesday, February 2nd, 2010

I think I’ve finally figured out how to use the various sites and services to which I subscribe. Links go over on Posterous, daily statistic updates go on Tumblr and random nonsense goes on Twitter. I just need to remember not to go too crazy on duplication of information. Over the next while, I’ll do something about unifying the design of my various presences, but for now, the content will all end up here somehow.

How to sync an iPhone with two (or more) Computers :: Shiny Things

Tuesday, February 2nd, 2010

Normally it’s only possible to sync media on an iPhone with one computer. If you try to use a second computer you get the warning below that “the iPhone XXX is synced with another iTunes library. Do you want to erase this iPhone and sync with this iTunes library”?

 sync_warning

However, I’ve found an easy fix for this. In the instructions below I’ll show how to modify any iTunes Library so it can also be synced with your iPhone. You can then either manually manage your iPhone on a second computer, or sync different data on different machines (E.g. Music at home, Contacts/Calendar at work).

Should be useful now for archival purposes.

Project SIKULI

Tuesday, February 2nd, 2010
Sikuli is a visual technology to search and automate graphical user interfaces (GUI) using images (screenshots). The first release of Sikuli contains Sikuli Script, a visual scripting API for Jython, and Sikuli IDE, an integrated development environment for writing visual scripts with screenshots easily. Sikuli Script automates anything you see on the screen without internal API’s support. You can programmatically control a web page, a desktop application running on Windows/Linux/Mac OS X, or even an iphone application running in an emulator.

This looks pretty slick.
