These aren’t necessarily theologically correct, and it might be more accurate to say life in the “new heavens and the new earth”, but here it is co-written with annatsang.com:

Just a quick post about things I’m liking right now:

1) Tabs in Finder thanks to Total Finder.

2) Cut & Paste, thanks to Move Addict. Apple say they don’t include this because its a user interface inconsistency compared to cut & paste of text which deletes the text when you cut it. On windows when you cut a file, it only deletes it after you paste. But still I think its a better way to move multiple files than dragging and dropping.

I’ve been using Accelerator Titanium to create iPhone applications in JavaScript. One thing JavaScript is missing is really good editor with autocompletion / code completion. I recently found Aptana and wanted a way to autocomplete from the Titanium API in that. I’ve created ScriptDoc compatible JavaScript header file that does the job.

Installation
1) Install Aptana standalone or as an eclipse plugin.
2) Download the javascript header file
3) Switch to the Aptana perspective in eclipse
4) Set Aptana as the default javascript editor in preferences
5) Add the timobile.js to the references

Other points of interest:
- You can download the PHP file here that I use to create the JavaScript header file from the Titanium API JSON file.
- I’m working on an Eclipse plugin, you can view the source here.
- If you’re wondering why there are function names like Titanium_UI_Window, these are to act as dummy return types, because Aptana ScriptDoc didn’t allow me to return an Object in a name space like Titanium.UI.Window.
- Mbirth has a JSDoc code completion file here, but Adobe no longer seem to distribute JSEclipse so I’m not sure how it would work in Eclipse.

I’ve been thinking a lot recently about motivation, how to balance not doing things in order to achieve, but realising we don’t always feel like doing those things. This lecture by N.T. Wright is one of the best I’ve heard, and may provide the key for all the thoughts I’ve been thinking.

Recently heard two excellent podcasts, one one free will (Ravi Zacharias) and one on the resurrection of Jesus (Rob Bell). Here’s the article Michael Ramsden mentions when he speaks.

I love my mac and my iPhone, but I wish they wouldn’t do things that are bad for the developer and the end user. I know the latest SDK fineprint might be beyond the average user, but I don’t like it, and I think it overall isn’t good to close a system even more.

Found these interesting thoughts about it:
