Installing Postgresql on OSX Lion. Even with the default installation many developers install another version alongside using Homebrew. For the sake of this article, I wanted to remove the default installation and install a single clean version on my development laptop using Homebrew. A quick disclaimer: Check you current installation for data that may be lost. Make backups and if you are unsure, don’t uninstall the default database. Ok, so onto how I tackled the process. Remove the data files. Postgresq...

Breaking Bad and its Philosophical Context - Part 2. As I’ve posited in Part 1. I began this part by stating that Walt finds. The latter is prescribed to children with ADHD by your neighborhood psychiatrist. The irony. So what makes drugs bad? What does “bad” mean? Why are they bad? The questions of what, why, how, whom, etc. are the questions that I ...

I think Rails 3.1 actually does this out of the box. So what I did was add a before filter to the application controller. Class ApplicationController ActionController: Base.

It is a great alternative to Objective-C for making iOS apps, and much easier to pick up, although the error messages could do with some improving. One error which I encountered which proved unhelpful was:. Script Error = -[ NSCFDictionary setParentOrientationController:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x9c4b270 at app.js (line 43). Global Setup Ti.include("/GlobalVars.js"); var self, button; function SettingsWindow(){ self = Ti&#...Today...
