Over the past year or so I’ve been trying out Resilio Sync (formerly BitTorrent Sync) as a possible alternative to Dropbox. It’s gradually improved to where I think I can rely on it. With my Dropbox subscription up for renewal in a couple of weeks, now’s the time. In this post I’ll describe how to […]
Gird your loins, beauty lovers. Nicely girded? Alright, it’s that time of year again when Sephora does their grand 20% off sale for VIB status shoppers (you get this if you spent $350 in the last year there, which is embarrassingly easy to do). There’s a 15% off sale in the Spring but this holiday […]
If there was ever a lipstick that I want to tell everyone “You’ve GOT to try this” it’s this one. Trust me, there are plenty of lipstick formulas that come across my desk but very few I am as excited about sharing as Burberry’s Full Kisses line which was sent to me as part of […]
This post is based on a lightning talk I gave at CocoaConf San Jose a couple of days ago. It’s that time of year– the time when summer time, or “Daylight Saving Time” as we for some reason call it in the USA– is ending. That time when a developer’s thoughts turn to date math […]
Becoming a mother is something I’ve always dreamed about and always wanted to do. In so many ways, it has been far more rewarding and far more of a sacrifice than I could’ve ever imagined. It’s officially been 100 days since this life-rocking event happened in my life so in reflection I wanted to share […]

As in holidays past, they have teamed up with Takashi Murakami for a limited edition collection featuring his iconic flower motif. To start off, […]
Hey all! Today I wanted to share with you another makeup collection in collaboration with Burberry and Sephora which was used in Burberry’s February 2016 Womenswear show. I’m so excited to be partnering with Burberry, so wanted to send a big thank you to Burberry for sponsoring this blog post and sending me these to […]
I try to keep this blog on topic, sticking to technical posts of interest to iOS and macOS developers. So when I wanted to write about something else I set up a different blog unrelated to my business. As some of you are aware, when I’m not working on apps I’m also a radio DJ, […]
Later this month I’m hosting Stump 360 III: The Search for Stump, the third annual Stump 360. It’s part of 360iDev in Denver. It’s on August 23, 4:45pm – 6:00pm. In case you’re not familiar with Stump 360, here’s some possibly interesting information. Stump is sort of approximately a game with two teams, the audience […]
