You write a prompt, hit enter, and watch the console light up green. Code pours out. It feels like magic. Then you try to maintain the thing a week later, and you realize your shiny new AI agent just built a leaking bucket.
I have a problem: I've put all my photos I've taken the past ten years into Lightroom. To ensure that I didn't miss any, I've put in all from my server, all from my backups etc etc etc. In short: duplicate galore. Now, I've sorted by filename and removed duplicates. I've sorted by capture time and removed duplicates. That made me go from 88k to 74k. But I still have duplicates. They have different times because some were posted in my galleries. They have different sizes because some were thumbnails. They have different names because some were exported and sent via mail. And some are more odd, or perhaps a combination of them all. But in 74k photos, finding duplicates and deciding which one to keep is hard!
I'm making OSC controllers for the iPhone, and I just sat down to check out the competition. Some projects, like TouchOSC and OSCemote are for pay. However, they are both out-competed on features and looks by Mrmr by Eric Redlinger. His version is soo much closer to what I have in mind, implements all the features by the two others and is free. That's a mighty good package you have there, Eric.
Jay, revived a project from back in April (Lighting Matrix for Max) from back when the iPhone SDK was NDA and only beta #3 was out. Well, for my first day of serious iPhone dev, I revived it, made it run with the current version, ripped out the Max/MSP part and inserted OSC instead. Good fun

The photos from the Ringve summercourse at Sund, 2008, are online, if you should have them and haven't received my mail with the super-secret password, drop me a line and I'll send it to you
It seems you cannot use the iPhone 2.0 firmware without a Twitter account, so I got one. First I started by adding some developers that I think do cool stuff. But then I got to thinking, who of my friends and contact are in there? Twitter isn't great at bulk importing, so to help me, I found TwitterWho where I could mark all my contacts in my address book, copy their names, paste it into the box and off it went and found everyone. Yay! How if I can only find a way to automatically look up Facebook friends on Twitter....
I've been looking into what to replace the Nikon CoolScan 4000 that broke and Nikon didn't manage to fix, and in that process I started a discussion on photo.net where people came up with some really nice answers. Check out the discussion
