I just updated SearchLink to v2.2.8. Yes, if you’re paying attention, I did skip a few increments there since the 2.2.5 release. I’ve added a few features and then kept holding release off until I had tested, and then life gets busy. You know.

As you may be aware, I publish a lot of projects. Mostly tools and scripts I give away for free, a couple that actually pay my bills. One yearly recap I never get around to actually finishing is a list of my own favorite personal projects for the year. This year I got around to it.

I had a blast at Macstock in 2016. It was a perfect combination of tech personalities and tech lovers, great presentations, and lots of fun mingling. In 2017 it grew, and the attendees, presentations, and the social events got even better. Based on that, I’m betting on Macstock 2018 being the best one ever in the history of Macstock (ok, sure, it’s only a few years old, but let’s keep making new records to break).

I ran into a problem editing a slide in Keynote with a large blockquote. It was left-aligned, which I’m great with, but the quote started inside the left margin, which caused visual flow issues. In typography, this is solved with hanging punctuation.

Among the posters that Tower (my favorite Git client) has published, The Developer Manifesto is one of my favorites. It’s a gorgeous piece, either as desktop wallpaper, or as a print.

I mentioned DaisyDisk as my favorite tool for seeing what’s using up space on my hard drive in yesterday’s roundup, and it happens that there’s a 30% off sale on it right now. Good timing.

As usual, I’ve found myself unable to write up the complete 2017 macOS list in any reasonable timeframe, so I’m once again splitting it into parts. This year’s categories will be “Working,” “Creating,” and “Nerding Out.” Welcome to the Working edition.
