QLab for Timing Audio/Video Productions — by Andy Dolph
Hi, this is Andy and I’m here with a little bit different kind of a story for the NosillaCast. My background is in sound, lighting, and projection design for the theater. I’ve been thinking for a while about telling you all about an application I use a lot. It’s called QLab, the letter “Q” “L […]

Jill with her Apple IIc This is Jill with reflections on the new-to-me MacBook Pro. I have been a Microsoft gal when I built my first 8088 in the early 80s and it had MSDOS v1. When I bought my Apple IIc in college, it was an extraordinary amount of money given to me by […]

Since it’s only a week until Christmas, I thought now would be a good time to resurrect the poem that has become a holiday tradition on the NosillaCast. This year we lost our beloved Honda Bob, a long-time NosillaCastaway and contributor to the show and a very dear friend. But his memory and the silliness […]

Bart is nearing the end of his mini-series recapping al of the different hats JavaScript objects wear, doing a lot of redux to cement the concepts that have been spread over so many lessons. He takes a really interesting approach this week to his teaching. He explains a concept and then instead of having a […]
Continue readingCapto – More than a Screen Shot Utility
I collect screenshot apps like other people collect shoes. It’s not that I haven’t found a good one, it’s that there are so many good ones to play with. I probably use the built-in screenshot utility in macOS more than any of them. ⌘⌃⇧4 to copy a screenshot to my clipboard is my constant go-to […]

You may know from way back that Bart and I did a podcast called Taming the Terminal. Bart was the instructor and I the student asking the “dumb” questions in which he taught me how to make the Terminal do my bidding. It was planned to be of limited length, and we stopped at 37 […]
