hugo

00:11 Sunday 29 March 2015 JST

So I'm looking at Hugo as possibly replacing Middleman.

To do so, I have to change the date format in frontmatter from something like 2015-03-28 10:55 JST to something like 2015-03-29T00:11:18+09:00.

Hopefully the new format will work with Middleman so I can use it in current entries until I can convert the dates in all the previous entries.

stupid finder

10:15 Sunday 29 March 2015 JST

Mail.app wouldn't respond after Finder.app isn't loading. I forced relaunch of Finder, but it hasn't relaunched yet.

Here's what I wrote to Apple when the dialog said "oh you killed Mail app; do you want to report it?"

Finder won’t start.

I don’t know if that’s affecting Mail, but I had to kill finder
because its one (1) single window couldn’t display ten (10) ten
little (less than 1MB each) images.  It just hangs with a blank
white page and spinning icon.  I can see the images with terminal;
I can see them with emacs.  I can see them with Cyberduck.  But
not Finder.

Why can’t I see them with Finder? 

I’ll stop here, but I swear on my million times I’ve yelled at my
computer I will never buy Apple gear again.

Funnily enough, I discovered I couldn't use Finder while I was trying to upload a new icon to itunesconnect for our latest app.

Right now the top command is using the most CPU, at 10%.

Chrome is now locked up while trying to quick-look an image that I think is the correct one I need to upload.

10:29am

Hahah the clock in the top bar of OSX has stopped at 9:59:28.

So basically, the only things that are working correctly for me right now are not Apple software: Emacs, iTerm (not Terminal), Middleman, Hugo..

And it shows me that I have spent 30 minutes trying/wanting/bitching-about-not-being-able to upload the image to itunes connect. Thanks Apple.
