Over the years I've dabbled in Mac OS X development but have struggled to find the time in between a full time job and also having a life to be able to see something through from start to finish. I'm convinced the ideas are sound because frequently others eventually release similar products. My last endeavour was for a better archiver than that provided by the Finder. It was to be dead simple, taking interface cues from things like <a href="http://appzapper.com/">AppZapper</a>. I discovered a little while ago that the fine folks at Apimac had created <a href="http://www.apimac.com/compress_files/">Compress Files</a>, which implemented my ideas and more.

Frustrated by this lack of time I decided to do something about it (after a small helping of procrastination). Last week I successfully negotiated a reduction to 4 days per week at my day job, with the fifth day allocated to Mac development. The first day of my new job is Mon Feb 11, 2008. However I find myself with a bit of a problem, I don't have any current projects to actually work on. Heeding the advice in Gus' post for <abbr title="Think small and make sure you really like what you are doing">Lesson #1</abbr> I'm seeking ideas from the Mac using community for a small application that I can use to get started. So if you got an idea for a small application that you don't mind sharing feel free to post a comment and let me know, it might be just what I'm looking for.

@ -8,7 +8,7 @@ I did some searching and came up with two other libraries that seemed well suite
|

|

I built the two additional libraries with the default configuration options, except for libmad, which I added the <code>--enable-speed</code> option. With the help of example code I made programs out of each that were comparable to the first version for Core Audio. I.e. MP3 file in, 16-bit Linear PCM audio samples out.
|
||||
|
||||
To provide a benchmark I wrote a script that would run each of the three programs against a source MP3 file. Each program reported the elapsed time (via <a href="http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Darwin/Reference/ManPages/man3/time.3.html">time(3)</a>) and the processor time (via <a href="http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Darwin/Reference/ManPages/man3/clock.3.html">clock(3)</a>) when it finished decoding. The programs were run one after another on the source file 10 times. Their PCM output was written to a new file for each invocation.

Can people please stop using the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feed:_URI_scheme">'feed:' URI scheme</a> for links to feeds on web pages. Its annoying and unnecessary.

The expectation is that clicking on a hyperlink that points at a "feed" URI will cause the Web browser to invoke the specified handler for the "feed" URI scheme which SHOULD provide the user with information about the data feed as well as the possess the ability to subscribe to the feed.
