Places
It took one full day to re-build whole Aperture library with the 2nd soultion. While digging it, I googled some new features of Aperture 3.11 which, in fact, included in iPhoto in new iLife11.2 iPhoto’s slideshow templates has been always awesome3 , but I have felt no use of them. However this time, ‘Places’ slide show caught my eyes, cause I have never missed to tag almost every pic’s GPS for years.
It was beautiful. I feel proud of it. Not because of the beauty of the theme, but my long-years’ tagging. All I did was only choosing photos with GPS and the ‘Places’ theme of slideshow. After that, Aperture 3.1 just built it. For music, I just selected for time of 10 min from my iTunes library, so it does’t fit well. I don’t care.

- Which means, with new iLife11, you can do the same thing, if you geo-tagged your pics. [↩]
- As always Apple has done. [↩]
Aperture + iTunes
iTunes and iPhone’s sync problem keeps bugging me. To find out, I tried unsync tab by tab, and it was Aperture. So, googled. Yup. The worst problem ever. – Apple Discussions: Aperture library cannot be found by iTunes. Also in Aperture users group has same thread Discuss: problem with syncing aperture photos to iphone.1
The reason is simple. Aperture didn’t make proper previews for other iApps. Hey, Aperture team. Please work with others. But the solution is … it’s case by case. 1. Someone rebuilt whole library,2 2. others selected photos and deleted previews and re-made them or 3. none of them failed.
There was pro app (and Aperture) update today. Before I do the painful rebuilding, I wished this update could fix this bug, but… So now I’m rebuilding the whole Aperture library. Thank you, Jobs.
and solution 1. failed. doing no.2.
- Even similar symptom troubled people since 2007! Apple Discussions: BUG: Photo sync with Aperture albums? [↩]
- Usually Aperture users library is hundreds of gigs. That’s why they use Aperture instead of iphoto. [↩]
What is this for
Guess it’s other’s laundry, if my sock doesn’t lose its toe. It looks like a canoe made of sock. What the hell is this for?

my own foodshed
I have kept track of my own foodshed. http://daytum.com/jacopast I wish I could embed this graph. Anyway.
1. MUFFIN (3.0) / 2. BURGER (3.0)
3. 제육 (2.0) / 4. KATSU DON (2.0) / 5. 김치찌개 (2.0) / 6. 만두 (2.0) / 7. FRUIT SALAD (2.0) / 8. 오뎅국 (2.0) / 9. PAN CAKE (2.0) / 10. MEATBALL (2.0)
It’s a month’s. There are only two tripled. It’s a nice diversity. Actually, muffin is not my favorite, but at Cosmopolitan Hotel Cafe near my work, it’s not just muffin. They bake their own crispy muffin.
To remember, I also take pictures of my food. @flickr MY FOODSHED set. But, I don’t like take a picture of food so much, cause I’m always busy to eat.
Autocad for mac
With my student ID which still survives luckily, I download and tested the most wanted software from Autodesk – Autocad for Mac.
First impression: It’s possible. It simply works as the other side of Acad does. Just opened one of my old Acad DWG file. I choose most heavy 2D drawing. It works well.
Also it supports Mac OS X’s ‘finger tips.’ I always imagine it would be great all these finger actions on track pad on graphic related software. It supports. It works. That’s all. Soon I needed the old Dell mouse. Optimization needed.
Second impression: Useless features in AutoCad for Win are still useless in AutoCad for Mac. Hello global uselessness. I don’t know what is the goal of the famous drafting software. No one actually uses Acad as 3D modeling or parametric software. Even Autodesk have other BIM / Parametric / 3D / Rendering software. The only reason for ACAD is now 2D drafting. (They even try to catch up Sketch up in 3D feature!) Actually all the redundant features only make ACAD complicated. It’s same in ACAD Mac.
After 10min’s use of this old and new software, I was inspired by the two important learning of life:
1. Throw junk in the wind, if you have one. Don’t attache to the past.
Today’s AutoCad 2011 has added up new features again and again. Most of users don’t even recognize it’s there. They just make AutoCad’s interface complicated. Therefore, the fresh-starting AutoCad can be more sophisticated. ACAD Mac only inherited the essence of long history of ACAD’s development, not the same interface.
2. What you see is what you get.
Modern softwares, especially in the field of visualization, are all powerful. Every programs are actually almost equal to each other in terms of its power. The difference comes from ease of use. Ease of use is not just service. Yes, everyone’s talking about the User Experience. It’s not just eye candy. See how sketch-up grows up. It’s not only applicable fact for software of IT gadgets.
