Comment on Cutting the cable cord. by Bob Smith

Having no live sports is a deal breaker for me, sure I could go somewhere else to watch them but I prefer to do it the comfort of my own home. Personally I’ve tried Netflix for streaming but I’ve noticed that it’s mostly stuff I’ve seen before, with no new releases and TV shows are from way to long ago… So once I started to work for DISH I noticed that the packages were surprisingly affordable, there’s even the option to add the Blockbuster@Home for additional streaming and DVD’s by mail. When you cut cords, you also limit yourself to the content that’s available online with no live sports…

Thanks for the update Harry. Did installing iTunes on top of your existing iTunes app work or did you find a way to delete it?

I have started getting many many spurios crashes and other errors from Xcode. tried to reinstall and got this exact error. Oddly, i had to quit iTunes during the install. So reinstalling itunes seems very plausealbe, except now with OS-X 10.7.3 I see no way to do it. Can’t even put iTunes in the trash!!! suggestions? (already did all the usual normal install apple updates etc.u00a0

I downloaded Xcode from AppStore, which told me it was ‘installed’ after the mega download. But in fact, I needed to look in ‘Applications’ in Finder, then run ‘Install Xcode’ as well. Not very intuitive – but there you go!

Thanks, Homebrew looks awesome! I wasn’t happy that MacPorts clobbered by .bashrc file.

Thanks! That’s a cool suggestion. In this case, I saved geocoded locations to a file for later processing, but I’ll keep your tip in mind for other situations.

I’d recommend using homebrew (http://github.com/mxcl/homebrew) as your Mac package manager as it doesn’t clobber your system libraries and is generally more intelligent than MacPorts. u00a0Also, spidermonkey, jsawk, and resty are all manageable via Homebrew.

Hi, nice post! If you like the vi editor you might be into something likennGET /the/path | jsawk ‘do_something()’ | PUT -VnnIt opens a vi editor with the result of the GET so you can edit it, and when you save it uses that as the data for the PUT.nnCheers!
