Greetings, everyone! Yesterday, I posted a "totally" subtle hint on Twitter about my new Palm OS app. However, if you missed that, I’ll explain what I’m working on in today’s blog post! First and foremost, the app I’m working on is a Pythagorean Theorem calculator called PyCalc. (not to be confused with Python) Anyway, this calculator can solve for the hypotenuse or legs of a triangle. You can also choose how far the result is rounded. It’s really neat! PyCalc should be released very soon. Stay tuned for more updates!  The photo I shared on Twitter. |
About a year ago, I reviewed the 2014 Mac mini on this blog. Ultimately, I came to the conclusion that it was still an excellent machine for productivity tasks, but it could also handle some more intense things you threw at it. Thus, it became my daily driver up until I upgraded to a 2017 MacBook Air a few months ago. That being said, I’ve still been using it some, so I thought I’d briefly share how it’s holding up these days. Here are my thoughts on this miniature Macintosh one year later! Performance Over the last year, I’ve been impressed by how much this Mac can handle. It’s rocking a 2.6 GHz dual-core Core i5 with 8 GB of RAM and a Samsung 860 Evo 1 TB SATA SSD. What all that jargon essentially means is that it’s a moderately powerful little computer, although it certainly isn’t going to put newer Macs to shame. Regardless, I’ve been able to do lots of coding, video editing, and schoolwork on this computer, and it has generally worked pretty well. Granted, it can take a while...
