Here’s a couple of thoughts:

• The phrase “Play the light” is apparently trademarked
• I was always wondering how I could be my own one man band… do you think we’ll see this instrument used in an orchestra anytime soon? Oh wait… no BECAUSE YOU ARE THE ORCHESTRA AND THE CONDUCTOR NOW. Screw the orchestra man! They were no-talent, non-laser emitting ass clowns anyway. LASERS RULE!
• I want to be blissfully ignorant enough to want to high five my buddy after playing that thing and think : “job well done sir… YOU ARE A BADASS ON THE LIGHT THINGY”
• Do you think MIT is working on a big badass version of this with the most powerful laser known to man? That’d be kind of cool, cause I want to see anyone that tried to play laser music get their hand lasered off.
• Just like playing with some lasers does not make you a musician, wearing sunglasses does not make you cool.
• Jam session? Are you shitting me?

Restart Safari Download a nightly build of webkit and run Dosera:

http://trac.webkit.org/projects/webkit/wiki/Nightly%20Builds

It should attach to Safari no problemo.. .You’ll see the scripts available from which to debug.. It SUCKS in comparison to VS.NET and Firebug.. but it is something at least. There is also a console that you execute arbitrary javascript in the current context… Seems to be the only way to interrogate an object at the moment is to put something like this in the console: for (var variable in myvariableInContext) alert(variable);

if you intend to use it with Python at all do not install the 64 bit version unless you have the 64 bit version of Python. The default install of Python is 32 bit on Leopard.  Doing so will make it impossible to use the MySQLdb Python bindings.

Even though we have a nice installer now, there are some slight problems with it. For starters, I don’t like having to start the server manually every time I boot up. There is a System Preferences add-in that adds a start up item but it is broken in the current version of the installer:

There is a fix out, you just have to install it yourself:
