Thanks be to Google and this blog I finally tracked down the cause of a mysterious unsightly rectangular white flicker that occurs when clicking on buttons in some of my projects as of late.  The culprit? Mac Firefox 3 + SWFAddress. Its really an ExternalInterface+Firefox 3 issue but a recent SWFAddress 2.2 release fixes it!

-Build-in fix for the Firefox 3/Mac OSX blinking effect.

I’ve been using a Mackbook Pro almost exclusively  for development for the last 2+ years and really enjoy it. Adium is by far the best AIM client on any OS and QuickSilver makes interacting with the OS super quick. There are a few weird UI decisions though that irk me on a daily basis though and I finally google’d one for a quick fix. Here’s a quick Terminal command to show full folder paths in Finder folder windows. Now if I could only cut-and-paste in the file system and edit/delete/manage files in file browser dialogue boxes I’d be all set.
