Finally!

I think that all the Yahoo investors have been waiting for this announcement for a while.

By trade, I’m a PHP/C programmer and rarely have time to really work on some fun stuff at home. But recently, I have been trying to spend some more time working on some fun projects and getting my hands dirty with XCode and the iPhone SDK.

I recently downloaded the latest and greatest version of XCode and overwrote the beta versions I had been running with before. The installation went fine and I decided I would load up one of the demo apps to make sure that everything was indeed still working as I expected.

Done! #222 for my polling place for the day.

I managed to get out of the office around 10 and got right into the polling place. No major lines though there was a bit of an issue with the scan tron machine accepting the ballots. But you just had to try it a few times and it would usually take it.

They didn’t have the “I voted” stickers. Sure its a small thing, but its part of the process.

For the love of God, STOP CALLING ME!!!

I was once a Democrat. Many many moons ago. I haven’t been a registered anything for over 10 years and I’m pretty happy about that. But unfortunately, the Democratic Party in Iowa thinks I’m still a Democrat and needs to call me. And call often! I’m a Libertarian, get over it.

For the past 2 months, I have asked to be removed from the calling lists. Nothing has changed. At one point, I started telling them I was voting for the other guy because they couldn’t figure out how to remove me from their list, how could I expect them to run the country.

This weekend, I finally got around to installing the final iPhone SDK. Everything installed great and I figured that I would get around to playing with it sometime this week. Unfortunately, both my wife and I noticed that Safari would start to lock up more often and Firefox would do the same thing for me.

I of coarse did very little to debug this figuring that it might be bad ram. Well, last night I went to run XCode to start messing around with some new code and I got a rather cryptic error upon launching the system.
