Tim Cook kicked off the 2016 WWDC with a moment of silence for the victims of the attack in Orlando on Sunday night. It was a powerful moment for both the company and Cook, who came out as gay in 2014. Not … Continue reading

Upcoming (Week 12)

Yet another week that’s crippled by a holiday: Easter is coming up, so only one meeting booked. Training, some socializing, some TV, a concert, and setting the clock forward one hour on Sunday. This is happening on Monday and Tuesday … Continue reading

Sunday Miscellanea

After a recent upgrade of a client’s database to FileMaker Pro 14, there’s no reason to keep FileMaker Pro 11 around anymore. This in turn means there’s no reason to not upgrade OS X to 10.11 anymore. I’ve waited with … Continue reading

Upcoming (Week 51)

This week: three meetings, training, two concerts, as well as running a few errands and going to a glogg party or two. The Logitech keyboard for the iPad Pro is rather sturdy (read= kinda heavy), but wow! what a difference … Continue reading

The Apple Pencil

The Apple Pencil is getting a whole lot of love: “going to change my life” is a pretty bold statement; “closest thing to a fountain pen in digital form“, and “extremely precise” are just some of the extremely positive remarks it … Continue reading

Had a friend visiting for a few days last week, and another one visiting this upcoming weekend. Before that however, this week will mostly be about further preparations for an all-day conference, and more FileMaker work. Latest weather forecast for Barcelona predicts a drop … Continue reading

Upcoming (Week 38)

After last week’s rather packed schedule with various client meetings I’m quite happy I’ve only booked one meeting this week; while meetings are obviously important and interesting and can be fun at times, it’s also disrupting the workflow. Training, a seminar, … Continue reading

Assorted (Mid September Edition)

After this week’s announcements, I want a new Apple TV (for the Siri control), an iPhone 6s Plus (12 MP camera and 4K video), the iPad Pro (including the Apple Pencil), and iOS 9. At least I’m getting a shiny new … Continue reading

Friday Miscellanea

TV shows: watched the first 2 episodes of the Wachowskis’ Sense8 last weekend and it’s definitely interesting, that’s for sure. Music: love the weirdness of F**k the Summer Up with Leikeli47. Goings-on: work, training, eating, planning, fiddling with the  Watch, … Continue reading

Thursday Miscellanea

Fascinating read and an example of how language is always changing – What Part of “No, Totally” Don’t You Understand? This. Friday evening. Sadly the new Swedish Siri sounds like she is heavily sedated. The grave and dead-serious response when asked how … Continue reading

Saturday Miscellanea (Rainy Afternoon Edition)

Friday Miscellanea

Hmm – found songs in my iTunes library that I haven’t listened to in the last 10 years. On the other hand, with 3 months worth of music there are some songs that will be played more often than others. … Continue reading
