I don’t know why this symlink is not set up after installing sublime. (Textmate does it!) You can simply do this: sudo ln -s /Applications/Sublime Text 2.app/Contents/SharedSupport/bin/subl /usr/local/bin/sublime Then you should be good to go. Try typing sublime in your terminal and sublime should be launched. If not, add this line to your ~/.bash_profile file. export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin Or you can mess with your own $PATH variable to make it right for you. ...

My only hardware design experience was back when I was in college using MAX+PLUS. It was confusing to me at best. Gone are those days. Today I came across circuits.io. Basically, you can make your circuit design in your browser! I can imagine one day circuit design can even become open source. [vimeo 50052950 w=650 h=400]

Recently I came across this currency exchange peer-to-peer service called CurrencyFair. I haven’t had a chance to try it out yet, but it looks quite promising. Basically, you get the best exchange rate by skipping the banks. They claim their commission rate is 0.15% only, much lower than anything you could possibly find. [youtube ] ...

I am not sure what I did that led to this error. I was simply doing some typing in TextEdit and some web browsing. Then while trying to open a pdf file, this happened. Then I tried opening some other picture files and it was the same error. Basically, Preview.app stopped working and kept giving me this -600 crash error. To fix this, you need to reboot. Yea, I know, I ran out of ideas, so rebooted, and the error went away. Hope this helps! ...
