As already mentioned, TextWrangler is a pretty good free alternative. I used it and liked it enough to support the team by buying BBedit, which I recommend if you're looking to purchase one.

The preceding semi-colon is definitely a very smart advice. I also will have to try out jshint (I've been using jslint).

Glad to have come across this. I'm actually going through this process now, and its almost comforting to know that this is how it should be :/
It seems its a lot harder when I'm trying to relocate. Me thinks it really is about who you know.

I find it very similar to the motto I follow when jogging (and also what I"m trying to apply to other things): keeping a steady pace. By keeping a pace, you don't burn out towards later stages.

My entire dev team (all 4 of us) have started doing burpees at 11:00am and 3:00pm everyday. Great all-around excercise that gets your heart racing and even works out the whole body. Japan has a milder version, called Rajio Taiso.
Not sure if I'd be able to walk while in a meeting, even if its at a slow pace. When I'm working out, I usually try to get into "the zone" and I'd probably have difficulties staying focused.
Re:Full-time Geeks Shouldn't Ignore Physical Impact of the Craft

Besides the physical impact, you should definitely look into the mental impact of the craft as well. I've learned (unfortunately through the hard way) that regular exercise (be it yoga, running, etc) helps to relieve stress that our body encounters throughout the day.

He actually mentions that in the audio clip, not mentioned in the article.

On a side note, twitter and fb feeds are going off right now.

Perhaps Digg fixing itself may return some of that Derp back where it came from. I haven't stopped using reddit though, as there are still some great mini communities that are the subreddits.
Going to be honest though, I am an ex-digg user, current reddit user, and just recently started checking out HN on a regular basis for the content and insight I feel has left reddit. Please don't hate me! :)
