London.pm Dim Sum Thursday 1pm Crispy Duck

2009-07-27 Thread Léon Brocard
It has come to my attention that there is a restaurant in Chinatown that we haven't been to. It might have Cripsy Duck, but my sources also tell me that the dim sum are tasty. Let's try it. Also, remember this week is the technical meeting: http://londonpmtech.appspot.com/ London.pm dim sum is a

Decent OS X audio rip software

2009-07-27 Thread Paul Makepeace
I've just discovered that iTunes will merrily rip CDs with errors and make no mention of this. Is there a way to have iTunes bail or retry on rip error? Or software that does? I remember when I was using Grip it would complain on errors which would prompt me to wipe the CD and have another go.

Tricky localization/scope question

This will localise any changes to @INC/%INC on the way into the block and restore them on the way out. Ooh, that's nice. I think I'll attack it from that angle. Should be on GitHub in a day or three... Randy -- Randy J. Ray Sunnyvale, CA http://www.rjray.org rj...@blackperl.com
