Mac OS X: It's the "little things"
It’s details like the following that sometimes make me stop and realize how fined tuned a software Mac OS X really is.
Tonight, I did the following, sequentially:
- Moved a folder to the trash, not realizing that a subfolder contained a file being written to.
- Tried to empty the trash. The Finder told me those files were still in use.
- Took the directory out and dropped it on my Desktop (not the original location)
- Inspected the files and dropped them back into their original location
Where things get interesting is that the process which was writing to the said file never crashed or in any way gave an error. It happily followed the files as they moved around, keeping on keepin’ on. Everything was handled cleanly by the Finder and abstracted from the process. Classy.
It’s also worth noting that the said process was not an Apple app, so no unfair advantages.

Where Good Ideas Come From, Illustrated and Animated
Brilliant whiteboard animation based on Steven Johnson‘s book, Where Good Ideas Come From.
If you enjoyed this one, you might also like his TED talk on the same subject.

Looking Back with a Critic's Eye
Ben never fails to impress me with his insight into the startup ecosystem. His latest essay, “A Postmortem Analysis of Standout Jobs“, falls square in this category. A great read for any entrepreneur, whether made or wanna-be.
