Feature Wishlist: Locations

Divine Proportions

 

I was thinking how cool it would be if I could customize settings for each location in OS X.

Currently Location only works for network configurations. Wouldn’t it be cool if apple added more functionality to this making your laptop smarter.

Lets take this scenario into account. At home where your macbook may be secure a screensaver that prompts for a password is unnecessary. Nobody is there to snoop! Bring that laptop out of the context of that location, such as work and the whole situation changes. It would be super awesome to be able to change your location to “Work” and get instant changes to all your settings. Not only network settings but screensaver would then lock on prompt. Of course each locations settings would be completely configurable.

Opinions?

Been very busy at the end of this semester. Had no time to post, but now that exams are finished I have plenty of time!

I’ve been working on Objective C + Cocoa Touch Frameworks to eventually make iPhone applications. I’m making great progress. ( Did a little Cocoa Frameworks on the side for Mac OS X programming but not as much as the iPhone programming. )

I’ve also learned a lot about Assembly and loading a micro-controller with instructions for a range of different purposes. Learned how to use I2C and SPI. Pretty cool stuff there.

I also have been starting on FPGA programming but so far I’m not sure if its my thing. Cool stuff but a little like rocket science to me. :\

I feel I’ve also been making great progress on my sketches with Pen and Paper. I might digitize the book. The first few drawings are very embarrassing but some are interesting.

xcode is actually quiet delicious of an IDE
 

Random CSS

29 Mar
 

I had an idea. What if I randomize the color scheme of my last style sheet, redblack.css. This way when a user visits a page. A random CSS file will be selected to style up the page.

Or .. I could also select a color for each day of the week, similar to Fred’s post titles. ;)

I got to thinking about which would ultimately be less to code equaling faster execution.

I kind of feel like grooving purple on Sundays.

I hope everyone likes the new schema + comments. I introduced the 960 Grid System when creating this. Figuring out comment count was quiet difficult at first but I got it!

I also started reducing my code and making it do less, since less equals faster. I have a couple more ideas to work on and develop then release. It will be interesting to see the results.

The Tumblr API is doing some weird things. I wish the automatically HTML formatted text in tumblr made sense sometimes.
