EasyRoute 1.2 Released!
Quick mention: it’s a good thing I wasn’t going anyway, because WWDC sold out in two or three minutes depending on your source. I had someone inform me at 1:03 EDT, so it definitely was not more than three minutes. Onto the bigger story of the day (well, at least on this site). EasyRoute 1.2 […]
Thoughts on WWDC 2013
Nope, I’m not going. I’d like to, but for a variety of reasons, I can’t. I just wanted to point out a few things I think Apple did correctly this year. First, pre-announcing the event is the right way to go. Granted, it’s only a day in advance, but it shows they heard the cries […]

Race Report: Greg Fried 5k in Roslyn
Today, I ran the 2nd Annual Greg Fried Memorial 5k in Roslyn. The tragedy in Boston made it somewhat somber for me, but I did my best to absorb being back and running through my historic and beautiful childhood hometown. Like last year, it was nice to meet some friendly runners before and after the […]
Race Report: Race for Spinal Victory 5k 2013
I ran this last Saturday and didn’t have time to write a post until Monday, but by then it just didn’t feel appropriate. I ran another race today, but I wanted to cover this one first, because it’s a great race! First, the course is terrific — a fast and flat run up and down […]
Font Runner Update
I made some updates to the Font Runner project. First, I cleaned up the project and put it into Git. It had previously been in my Perforce depot, but as I have mentioned before, I prefer git these days. Then, I replaced the old license with the GPL license and removed any references to things […]
EasyRoute 1.1 now available
After about 8 days in review, EasyRoute 1.1 is finally available. The big new feature is the elevation graph. In addition, there were some minor bug fixes and internal cleanup. When I released EasyRoute 1.0, I felt it was in a useful state even without the elevation graph — this is particularly true since I […]
Pray for Boston
I was going to make some announcements with tonight’s post; instead I sit here wiping away tears. Logic is an essential part of computer programming, thus who I am. When these things happen, I ask why? How could this happen? Even to a deranged mind, how could this make sense? I don’t get it. Marathoners? […]

First Races of the Season
I thought I overheard someone say something about it being spring a couple of weeks ago. It sure doesn’t feel like spring with daytime temperatures still down in the 40s, but the spring 5Ks are here anyway. First up, on April 14, 2013 is the Race for Spinal Victory (online registration here). I ran this […]
