It was a beautiful day outside so I decided to grab the MacBook Pro and enjoy the delightful weather out on our screened in porch. I had some online reading to do as I am trying to get a handle on Git, the version control system I am going to be using. Read more

When I pick up a book to read it I have an almost overwhelming desire to know something about the person writing the book before I even flip the pages of that book. I want a connection between that person and myself in order to justify committing myself to their momentary care. I look first at book forwards or introductions or at least the author’s brief inside the front cover. This is true whether the book is a work of fiction or a technical manual. Without this beginning I have a hard time relating myself to the author; I have this need to know something about them.

Out with the Logitech driver, in with USB Overdrive

I’ve had a little problem with my Logitech Control Center driver for a while now. I would get this little LCC Update icon appearing in my Dock every once in a while. It seemed as though the updater was trying to tell me something. I would click on the icon but nothing would appear. Going to the Logitech site would result in seeing the same version available for download that I already had on my machines. This was occurring on both my MacBook and Mac Pro so I was pretty sure it wasn’t hardware specific.
