Okay, maye I’m jsut being paranoid or it’s a big coincidence, but this seems to be a consistent event. I’m updating my iPod with iTunes, and everything is tooling along nicely. Podcasts are updating and downloading, the store is working, and the music is playing. Perfect.
Then, an update becomes available (this time 7.5). Now, before downloading the update, iTunes crashes every five minutes with the Not-Vista’s-Fault error “caused by iTunes”. In addition, the iTunes store and my podcast downloads start timing out.
This same pattern happens when using Firefox and AVG: everything fine then crash city once an update becomes available.
I wouldn’t put it past Vista to say “Fine. If you don’t update your software we’ll make you do it.
Anyone else on Vista having this experience?

Makes a great point about syntax.
Plus, I’m blogging using Flock. How neat.
I used to hate Javascript’s syntax. I still do, but to a lesser extent. But I know where most of it came from. And I don’t know what your programming experience is, but C, PHP, etc. all use “function,” so it is totally natural to me.But I’ve grown up about syntax, and I’ve realized that while every programmer wants a language with beautiful syntax, arguing/worrying/complaining about syntax is stupid. I don’t care if it’s def or function, class or object, import or include. I care about what I can do with the language, and that’s what this is all about.

I installed InstantRails on my iPod (so that I can work/save anywhere without paying for a server, of course). I am writing a tiny app based on 4 Days on Rails.
I am planning my exposure to this incredible framework will give me some serious inspiration for Black Dog’s PHP framework. These plans are well-laid.
As for love, I’ll let you know.
