Two observations on Apple's launchd:
- There is no idea so good that XML can't make look stupid and completely incomprehensible. I understand why they did it, but ... still ...
- Where the *&^%$#@ is Apache getting started from, and how the @#$%^& am I supposed to track down these weirdnesses on Tomcat?
Okay, one on remote desktops: X11 may suck, but all of the other extant technologies for remote desktops suck more. Why aren't people using X11 in the manner it was intended? (Via and more). Yes, it's slow, and it sucks, but it sucks a lot less than VNC. And don't get me started about flashy animation and transparent window effects with VNC...
