The TapForms blog has a nice post about exporting records from the, now defunct, Bento.
I honestly wouldn’t give FileMaker my money either. Both Bento and FileMaker have been behind the times for awhile. I switched to TapForms many months ago. It’s not as pretty as Bento, but is far more usable.
Will Bond just announced Package Control 2.0. Package Control is 50% of the reason I like Sublime Text. It’s so easy to find and install useful Sublime Text packages.
The Package Control website also received a makeover to help find awesome stuff.
Will now has a way to encourage him to keep making Package Control great through donations and Gittip. What might surprise some users is that Will Bond pays $100 per month out of his own pocket to support Package Control.
TextBlob is a Python module for more simple Natural Language Processing. The sentiment analysis is just 4 lines.
I’ve worked with NLTK in the past, and it can be a real pain for the thick-headed stuff I do with it.
From the OmniGraphSketcher support page:
What exactly happens next? We’re still pondering that question, and we’re very open to ideas. At the moment, our first choice is to release it to the world as an open source app so that other developers can keep it moving forward, but for that to really work we think someone would need to volunteer to shepherd the app. If you know someone who would be interested in doing this, please send us email at omnigraphsketcher@omnigroup.

Ever get frustrated by the convoluted fine print in credit card contracts that also enable the banks to modify the terms at any time? Dmitry Agarkov did something about it:
Disappointed by the terms of the unsolicited offer for a credit card from Tinkoff Credit Systems in 2008, a 42-year-old Dmitry Agarkov from the city of Voronezh decided to hand write his own credits terms.
No way this would pass here in the US.
I know, you’ve heard from every corner of the Internet about Shawn’s new project, Delight is in the Details. But we had a great conversation with Shawn about the project, his motivations and his history with design. It’s a nice insight into where he’s coming from and what you can expect to find in the book and interviews.
Ken over at NotMillerTime:
But FileMaker’s announcement has revealed a space that I think needs to be filled. In FileMaker terms, something way more powerful than Bento, but way less complex and expensive as FileMaker Pro. FileMaker Pro 12, even at its promotional $175 price, along with the free FileMaker Go iOS app, is way too expensive. Plus you can’t even create or modify databases in Go, just deal with records.
Diddums is another Pinboard client for Mac. This one is just for posting bookmarks quickly. It’s not as full featured as some other clients but it’s good for what it is.
Shiori is a simple Mac app for posting and searching Pinboard. The tag completion is nice and the URL privacy rules are clever.
