CCATP #553 – Bart Busschots on PBS 57 of X – the Bootstrap Grid

Things take a turn for the mind-bendy in this installment about Bootstrap as Bart Busschots explains the Bootstrap Grid.

Listening to Bart Really Pays Off

Bart has been teaching you and me for many years now. Between his Taming the Terminal series and now his Programming By Stealth series, he’s attempted to cram vast amounts of knowledge into our brains.

PSA – In an Accident, Start Taking Pictures

2005 The day after Christmas in 2005, I was rear-ended when I stopped suddenly because of an unexpected pedestrian in the crosswalk. I was rather proud of my reaction to the accident at the time.

Batch Resize, Rename, and Watermark Images with PhotoBulk for macOS

Today everyone can be a great photographer, simply armed with a good phone camera.

If you’re in the latter camp, you take great care to get the lighting right, to frame […]

Be Like the Cool Kids – Easy Emojis with Rocket for macOS

Sometimes the problem to be solved is that we need to have more joy and silliness in our lives. A little while ago Bart mentioned an app he’d heard Mikah Sargent of iMore talk about, called Rocket, and it’s my new favorite app. In the words of the great early podcaster, Tim Verpoorten, it’s a […]

I asked Steve onto […]
