ImageSnap: Capture images from iSight and other sources from the command line

by karlcow

ImageSnap is a Public Domain command-line tool that lets you capture still images from an iSight or other video source. You might remember Axel Bauer's original isightcapture tool (that is no longer supported but still works on most systems). With ImageSnap I hope we'll be able to move forward and add features, adapt to the ever-changing Apple architectures, etc.

goodbye 29

by blackgoldfish
hello 30 :) Seems like this birthday crept up on me. I still feel 25. I don't think of myself as "older". I hope maybe a little "wiser". But definitely happier. 29 you've been a pleasure. I'm sad to close this chapter (marriage, love, Mr. Handsome) but I'm ready to go onto the next. I anticipate many more happy memorable moments. He's the best pre-birthday party date ever.

FOTO8 - Thomas Ruff interview

by sbrothier
Thomas Ruff is explaining the enduring concerns that have animated the work that has made him one of the most innovative and distinguished art photographers of recent decades: ‘I always want to take the medium of photography into the picture, so that you are always aware that you are looking at an image – a photograph,’ he says, before continuing, ‘so, in the picture I hope you can see two things: the image itself, plus the reflection – or the thinking – about photography. I hope it’s visible. I’m an investigator, and it is as if I am investigating the grammar of photography.'

old sayings

by blackgoldfish
Don't panic. Wherever you go, go with all your heart. The smallest deed is better than the biggest intention. Better a diamond with a flaw than a pebble without. The only reason you die is because you live. Take the chance while you still have the choice. The only thing you truly own is your time. Be brave enough to live creatively. A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Impossible is a word only to be found in the dictionary of fools. Keep true to the dreams of your youth. The beginning of wisdom is to desire it. Always begin with an end in mind. The eyes believe themselves; the ears believe other people. Dream lofty dreams, and as you dream, so shall you become. Pick a path with heart. Take a chance in the near future. Change your luck today. Rest is a good thing, but boredom is its brother. Let the spirit of adventure set the tone. Dare to dream, hope, believe, seek, feel, find, and love. Be mischievous and you will not be lonesome. Originality overcomes everything. Good luck is the result of good planning.

Flickr: Discussing Fluidr - an easy to use web alternative to Flickr in Flickr API

by decembre
A web-based Flickr viewer called Fluidr: www.fluidr.com it's in alpha at the moment but is quite stable. Fluidr is unique in a few ways. It offers a continuous pagination (infinite scroll) interface like Darckr and Flickriver but seamlessly turns into a slideshow with the press of a key (try hitting SPACEBAR). It also allows for adding faves and comments in the same interface (scroll or slideshow) rather than having to switch to a more cluttered one. Fluidr's interface is very simple, but allows you to view Flickr content in many ways. You can do the usual Explore/User/User Set/User Tag/Global Tag/Group Pool views, but you can also chose to explore a specific date using a calendar picker, view interesting videos from today or a date range (or an arbitrary date) and filter many of the previously mentioned views by photos only and videos only. Despite these options, it uses a common two line header that (I hope at least) isn't too confusing.

Quick App: C64 Commodore 64 Emulator for iPhone — Can Hack Basic! | The iPhone Blog

by sbrothier (via)
C64 ($4.99 – iTunes link], a Commodore 64 emulator for the iPhone (and iPod touch) is now available from the App Store, despite having been previously rejected by Apple. FCC spotlight? Phil Schiller intervention? Simple change of heart? Sounds more like a slight change of code, says the C64 blog: Ultimately, BASIC has been removed for this release; however, we hope that working with Apple further will allow us to re-enable it.

love thursday: 24 simple ways to show love in the next 24 hours

by blackgoldfish
1. Buy coffee for the guy standing behind you at the coffee shop. 2. Open the door for someone before entering yourself. It doesn't matter if you're a girl and he's a boy, or you're a boy and she's a girl, or you're both boys, or you're both girls. You can do it. 3. Send a quick email to someone you haven't heard from in a while. It can just say, "Hey, I was thinking about you. I hope you're well." Trust me, it will make her day. 4. Send a small, handwritten note -- via regular mail! -- to someone far away. It can just say, "Hey, I was thinking about you. I hope you're well." Trust me, it will make his day. 5. Give someone flowers, just because. They don't have to be expensive. The blossom above was part of a grocery-store bouquet that cost $3.99. The recipient really isn't going to care that it wasn't expensive. I promise. 6. Invite someone to your home. Have something baking in the oven for them when they arrive. 7. Light a candle and think of someone who is going through a rough time. Silently offer them good thoughts/prayers. 8. Pick a charity. Give something. 9. Buy a magazine subscription for a friend out of the blue. 10. Give blood. 11. Prepare someone's tea. In my opinion, it's a wonderful act of love to not just put the hot water and a teabag in front of a friend, but actually prepare and steep the tea for them. 12. Tell a child -- or someone who is struggling with self-esteem -- how great you think they are. And mean it. 13. The next person who serves you a meal at a restaurant, or helps you in a store, or sells you your morning newspaper, look him in the eyes, smile, and say "thank you" with as much sincerity as you can muster. 14. Give someone a heartfelt hug. Just because. 15. Start a hopeful revolution: leave a hope note somewhere. Extra points if you leave it on the windshield of a stranger's car. 16. Offer to cook a meal for someone. 17. Offer to give someone a break -- babysit, hire a maid service for them, or even straighten her house yourself. 18. Clean out your closet. Give the gently-used clothing you no longer want to a shelter. 19. Take a photograph of something beautiful. Send it to someone, with the note: "This reminded me of you." 20. Give someone something of yours -- a book, perhaps, or a small trinket -- with no expectation of return. 21. Blow out a candle. Make a wish on someone else's behalf as you do it. 22. Make a short list of the things you love about someone you love. Leave the list where they can find it. 23. Make a date to have coffee or a glass of wine with an old friend. 24. Say "I love you." Mean it.

“I’m still secretly hoping that one day our curl command client will just have a flag to return the final post-Javascript DOM.”

You don’t have to hope and it doesn’t have to be a secret, Ilya. Lyndon is most of the way there.

WYSI-dangerous: Why WYSIWYG editors are bad for your website - RedCloth: Textile for Ruby

by Spone
Suppose you are fed up with rush-hour traffic and you’re looking for a new way to get to make your daily commute. “I’ve got just the thing,” I say: a personal-sized airplane that will deliver you to work like the Jetsons. Don’t worry, you don’t need to know anything about flying—it’s all automated. No knowledge of flight dynamics, weather, or navigation is required. Just push the right buttons on the dash and the computer will take care of the rest. It’s as easy as driving a car! I hope you’d say, “thanks but no thanks.” Sure, someday that will be a reality, but you realize that right now flying is a much more complex operation than driving. You’re operating in three dimensions instead of two; there are more external factors, like weather and turbulence; you can’t just pull over onto the shoulder. The consequences of making wrong choices are much higher and aviation AI just isn’t sophisticated or trustworthy enough yet.

Little Gems - Chocky The Children of Green Knowe Think of a Number Jigsaw The Flumps Hectors House Ludwig The Little Green Man The Tinderbox Toms Midnight Garden Godzilla The Riddlers Stig of the Dump Pigeon Street Cockleshell Bay Bleep and Booster Puddle

by ycc2106
This site is dedicated to the Little Gems of children's television programs that have long faded into memory such as Moondial, Into the Labyrinth, The Herbs, Cockleshell Bay, Alias the Jester, Belle and Sebastien, Murun Buchstansangur, The Singing Ringing Tree, Simon in the Land of Chalk Drawings (as shown on Captain Kangaroo) and Portland Bill. It also includes recently discovered Gems such as The Big Knights. These and other classics may no longer be seen on our television screens but we hope that this site will bring back vivid memories of those lazy days of the summer school holidays.

Maverick Conceptions » Blog Archive » Using Development Methods in Design

by karlcow

If you are creating something for someone else, hopefully a paying client, there is a certain set of rules and protocols that you communicate with in terms of feedback, revisions, deadlines and deliverable. Some designers have created a custom process that they try and communicate with their client regarding expectations and some designers just shoot from the hip and hope things go smoothly.
