Video on the HTC Thunderbolt Sucks! (unless you...
I have had the HTC Thunderbolt on Verizon for several months and one feature that I have used only once on the device is the video recorder. The reason: it SUCKS! The video quality was (just) ok, it was was audio that was the worst, most garbled, audio I have ever heard on a video recording device! No exaggeration, no joke. Hands down the worst!
A month or so ago I installed the...

I think this is a great Interview from last night with Andrew Napolitano on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. Among other topics, Ron Paul comes up, and Mr. Napolitano makes the distinction that there is really just ONE political party in this country, with just different visions of what BIG government should be, that is, the GOP ‘aint what it used to be! He got me thinking that Ron Paul...

I agree @neiltyson totally! Teaching Science literacy is more important that just being able to reciting facts.
Scientific literacy is a part of understanding how to approach problems, deal with conflict, and hey, while I’m at it… approach life!

Next week, team Shelby is headed to CES. I know what you’re thinking, why would a tiny startup head to one of the biggest consumer electronics shows in the world, especially when Apple has already won CES?
It all started when we won a booth at CES this past summer as part of a competition…

Marco Arment has done a great job with this product all the way from top to bottom. The bookmarklet experience is great, it’s fast, convienient, clear as to what is happening, the web experience is straight forward and designed well, and the iOS app is the first App that I knew EXACTLY what I was getting when I paid for it,...

What's left? Great opportunity.
Today I dropped my daughter off at school for the first time in more than two weeks, great family time.
As I was walking past 6th Ave I looked south and noticed the Freedom Tower. Wow, great progress since I last took this route way back in 2011. In the morning light, the lights in the still exposed upper floors twinkle majestically.
Crossing the Avenue, as the tower started to disappear...

Javascript multi-line comments shortcut in...
I am a huge fan of Textmate. I use it ALL the time for Ruby, Rails, HTML, CSS, and of course Javascript.
Commenting in most of those languages is really easy:
Ruby: # comment here
HTML: <!— comment here —>
Javascript: // comment here
What I have really wanted for some time is a keyboard shortcut to turn a line or two of text into a multiline Javascript comment.
Here’s...

How to enable JSONP support in a Rails app.
I have known about JSONP for some time now but it didn’t really “click” with me until this week for some reason. Now… I think it is awesome!
So, How to enable JSONP support in a Rails app?
In a Rails controller where you want to return JSON to a callback function specified in an AJAX request, simple add a callback key and value (via param[:callback]) to the call to render...

We Americans forget that we are still at war.
People are fighting. People are dying.
This is a powerful real look at the battlefield.

“Sometimes that turkey he looks right into ya. Right into your eyes. And, you know, the thing about a turkey… he’s got lifeless eyes. Black eyes. Like a doll’s eyes. When he comes at ya, doesn’t seem to be living…until he bites ya, and those black eyes roll over white and then… ah then you hear that...
