I'm a Java developer (at least I occasionally write Java code), and most of the time the CleaseCase remote client running inside of Eclipse does everything I need for source code control. The one complaint I have about CCRC in Eclipse is that it keeps using the old-looking and not very useful clearcase GUI for doing diffs and merges. A few weeks ago someone pointed me to meld.

Tuesday, January 8, 2008. How Stupid Can You Get? I read yesterday that Sony was going to join the DRM free MP3 fray. I was very excited. Since Amazon started offering MP3 downloads I haven't bought any DRMed music. Since iTunes started selling Music, I've encouraged my wife to only buy music online. Finally the king-of-DRM Sony was going to give up and start offering DRM-free music. Then I read this. In order to buy Sony DRM free music - wait for it - you have to go to . A STORE. How Stupid Can You Get?

Sunday, December 7, 2008. Ever since I bought a MacBook Pro, I've been trying to get used to OS-X. I have never done well with the concept of multiple windows in an application - I've always thought of windows as top-level things. Which is why I don't like the default Apple-Tab behavior on OS-X (Switch between applications, but not windows within an application) - Or the Apple-` behavior (toggle between windows in an application, not different apps).

Tuesday, March 20, 2007. Every year we go to the MassHort. Annual Flower Show. Its a great chance to get out of the winter doldrums, and really enjoy a preview of spring. Every year, I bring a camera, and was really looking forward to playing with my new Sony A100. I figured that I should be able to do some new cool things that I never have done in the past with it, since its a full DSLR. What surprised me is how many good pictures he got. I don't think I'm just saying that cause I'm his dad either :).

Saturday, October 13, 2007. Travel with our Son - The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly. It was also very interesting, because this was our second trip to London in the past two years. Last time we went, we didn't take Connor - it was just the adults - so it gave us an interesting chance to contrast the two trips and really try and think about what traveling with a child means. So thats why I'm writing this post. To let you know about our experiences traveling with our 4 year old. Getting from point A to point...

Wednesday, August 29, 2007. I've been watching the set of posts and articles that Paul. Has been putting up an RSS feed as shared. For a while now. I really like the fact that he did this, and I asked him how he managed to get stuff that came as part of RSS feeds as well as stuff he just found online and shared the articles. He was nice enough to tell me. So I now have a page and RSS feed of articles that I think are interesting. As well as my google reader shared items feed. What you get is the ability ...

Mike Lepore's Blog: Riding on the Assabet River Rail Trail
http://milepore.blogspot.com/2009/08/riding-on-assabet-river-rail-trail.html
Tuesday, August 11, 2009. Riding on the Assabet River Rail Trail. Connor's been riding his bike a lot lately, and he recently graduated away from training wheels. We've been riding around the neighborhood quite a bit, but there's lots of traffic and lots of hills. I remember reading about the Assabet River Rail Trail. A while ago, and had seen parts of it where it crossed various streets in town, but had never been on it. Or 9 miles round trip. They're going to start construction again in 2013 - a long w...
