poole
Poole is an easy to use Markdown driven static website generator. You write
the content of your pages in Markdown and Poole creates a nice and simple site
with a navigation menu. You don't need to learn a template or preprocessing
engine.

Though Poole is made for simple sites, it has basic support for content
generation by embedding Python code in page source files. This is a dirty merge
of content and logic but for simple sites it's a pragmatic way to get things
done fast and easy -- if you know Python you're ready to start.

10.7: Remove the Dock's display delay - Mac OS X Hints
It’s annoying for normal users, but heaven for power users who know how to move a Wacom pen:
While reverse engineering the Dock for HyperDock, I stumbled over this useful hidden setting that removes the display delay when the Dock is hidden.

To remove the delay, open Terminal, type or copy and paste the following line and hit return:

defaults write com.apple.Dock autohide-delay -float 0 && killall Dock

To restore the default behavior, enter:

defaults delete com.apple.Dock autohide-delay && killall Dock

bazinga is a small and (maybe) simple commandline interface which lets you publish articles on a blog without the need of PHP/MySQL or CGI. It produces plain HTML-files in a clean and reasonable directory structure and links them together. This seems quite static at a first look, but the advantages of this model are clear: you don't need a webhoster which allows previously mentioned features. The pages produced should be 100 % display-able by any common HTTP server.

nload: monitor network traffic and bandwidth usage
nload is a console application which monitors network traffic and bandwidth usage in real time. It visualizes the in- and outgoing traffic using two graphs and provides additional info like total amount of transfered data and min/max network usage.

I should probably try to compile this on OS X and take a look if it works as advertised. This is a really nice utility if you want to analyze where your traffic goes, because it looks better than most GUIs.

Introducing Twine: String Management for iOS, Mac OS X, and Android Development
I’m not sure if I would use Twine by myself, but the description sounds promising and definitely inspiring:

We decided that we needed a better way to manage our strings. We looked into a few applications and scripts that claimed to help with this painful process, but couldn’t find anything that we liked. Instead, we decided to build our own. Twine is an open-source command line tool written in Ruby that manages all of your strings, comments, and translations in a single text file. Twine parses this file and then generates all of the .strings files for you. Or, if you’re building an Android app, Twine can generate Android .xml string files.

100 Abandoned Houses
The abandoned houses project began innocently enough roughly ten years ago. I actually began photographing abandonment in Detroit in the mid 90’s as a creative outlet, and as a way of satisfying my curiosity with the state of my home town. I had always found it to be amazing, depressing, and perplexing that a once great city could find itself in such great distress, all the while surrounded by such affluence.

Puncher the simple file watcher for OS X
Why another file watcher for OS X?

There’s already kicker, and many ruby programs that need file watching, already have solutions built in. For example ZenTest, compass etc..

The problem with file watchers on OS X is that they depend on rubycocoa. If rubycocoa isn’t available most of them fallback to file-system polling, which kills my cpu. If you’re using the system ruby that comes with OS X, you’re fine because rubycocoa is already built in.

Microcaching: Speed your app up 250x with no new code - Fenn's Thoughts
Microcaching is like an insulation layer for your app - Let's say your wordpress install (or rails app) can handle 20 requests/sec fairly happily. This is fine, up until the point where you get on HN and Reddit at the same time (greatest day of your life) and right at the critical time, your site collapses spectacularly amidst the deafening snarky jeers of your peers.

The idea behind microcaching is to cap the amount of requests that can make it through to your app by letting nginx bear the brunt of your pageviews by caching content for a very small amounts of time (ie: 1 second or less).

From your app's point of view, it can only ever be hit by a maximum of 1 req/sec per page of content it needs to serve, so in wordpress terms, if everyone is hitting your front page or a specific post, the vast majority of requests can be served out of cache.

At the same time, the classic problem of stale content/cache invalidation is basically nil - nobody's going to realise if the content they're seeing is 800ms old. Probably...

Bei der Statistik werden nun alle nicht-allday-Events berücksichtigt, die eine Dauer größer 1min haben, d.h. Aufgaben werde nun auf die Minute genau erfasst und nicht auf 5min gerundet
Die Statstitik wird nun nicht nur für die aktuelle Woche/Monat aktualisiert, sondern für alle Wochen und Monate, die aktuelle Event andauert
Das Skript erkennt nun Events an die wie bisher ein Open in der Beschreibung haben, die als Allday-Event angelegt wurden und keine Statistik-Events sind und Events die die gleiche Anfangs- wie Endzeit haben
Wählt man ein AllDay-Event zum Abschließen aus, fragt das Skript nach der Anfangs-Uhrzeit des Events.

Code Your Own Multi-User Private Git Server in 5 Minutes - Moocode Blog
I was recently working on a client project that we converted to git, we hired an agency to work on the front-end for the project and they had four users that needed access. I didn't really want to create them individual accounts on the server so I started thinking how I could securely manage multiple-user access to a git repository running under a single git user without giving them shell access.

After a bit of research I identified two possible candidates gitosis and gitolite but they seemed overkill for what I was trying to achieve.

Amazon CloudFront – PHP Invalidator : : subCHILD
Amazon recently (finally!) added support for invalidation to CloudFront.  Frankly, without this feature the service was pretty useless to me since updating (or deleting) the cached resource would mean that the actual operation would take up to 24 hours to be reflected on the CDN.  But all is well now as the invalidation API available and is, as expected, very responsive.  (Based on initial tests, invalidations take a few minutes to process.)

What was missing though is a PHP API for easily creating and processing invalidation requests, so I put one together, largely inspired by the existing S3 and CloudFront PHP kits.

10.7: Enable AirDrop on Macs without supported wireless hardware - Mac OS X Hints
AirDrop is a handy way to share files between Macs. Unfortunately, it is only supported on newer models which have the hardware necessary to support a certain type of point-to-point WiFi connection. There is, however, a hidden setting to enable AirDrop on older Macs. Just type:

defaults write com.apple.NetworkBrowser BrowseAllInterfaces 1

into a Terminal window, hit enter, and relaunch the Finder.

Note that:
You must do this on both the sending and receiving macs, even if one of them already has the correct WiFi hardware (I think).
You will be able to see other macs on the same network, and they will be able to see your Mac (when AirDrop is open), even if they are not physically nearby. On a larger network with many Macs, this could potentially cause some confusion, although it shouldn't be a real security issue. This may be why Apple decided not to enable this feature by default.
Both macs must be connected to the same network somehow (ethernet, existing WiFi network, etc.)

[crarko adds: So here I sit, with only one Lion machine, so I can't fully test this. However, when using the command, it did enable the AirDrop icon in the Finder's Sidebar and said it had become available, so it will likely work, given the caveats mentioned above. To reverse this, just change the 1 in the command to a 0. This will be a great boon to those of us with some older (but still Lion-capable) machines still around.]

Quick Tip: Extracting Mac App Store reviews as text - Brett Terpstra
Apple has disabled the ability to copy and paste text (or even select it) in the Mac App Store. This is fine for descriptions, you can just view the web preview and get what you need (just right click the icon in the App Store app and choose Copy Link to paste into your browser). You can even get to the first few reviews that way. Marked users have left some insanely nice reviews, though, and I wanted to capture them all (both for marketing and for general warm fuzzies).

Cactus is a simple but powerful static website generator using the Django template system. Cactus also makes it easy to develop and deploy your site to S3 directly.

Cactus is based on the idea that most dynamicness on websites these days can be done using Javascript and external services while the actual site can stay static. Still, it's nice to use a well known system like Django to generate your site so you can use the template system and other goodies. The static output allows for very fast and easy hosting, especially combined with a cdn like Amazon Cloudfront. More discussion about this at hacker news
