iApp Pricing
So, iOS app developers, I felt I should share my pricing rule. This is a hard rule designed to save my bank account, and it’s worked rather well. I have a top price per platform I’m willing to toss at software. Anything over that it simply out of consideration.
For the phone, it’s $10. Nothing on the phone is worth more than $10 because the interface prevents me from...

Hey Designers?
Please stop using hexadecimal color codes when talking to developers. We stopped using those in the late 90s.
With CSS we’re using rgb and rgba to give us our colors using the same channel values as most graphic programs (each channel ranging from 0-255). This applies to software for desktop and mobile devices as well.

Star Trek always had the most problematic ship designs. A mouse farts in engineering and cables explode on the bridge. It’s amazing they got out of the solar system at that rate.

Impossible Alarm Clock
I have a really unique alarm clock and I’m not entirely sure how it came to be, but every morning around 7a it comes into my room and stares at me until I wake up and then says, “Daddy, I used the potty. Here. Help me put underwear on.”

Too Fast
He just ran into the bathroom, turned on the light, closed the door, used it, cleaned up, re-clothed, opened the door, and turned out the light.
A couple of weeks ago I was putting his undies back on every time and about all he did was hop on the can. This kid is a fast learner.
