Pip is a package manager of python. You can download Python libraries from some Python repositories like PyPI. You can also download libraries from a git repository. This is gonna be the issue to be explained in this article.

I don't like to memorize things all the time. So, I guess, I couldn't be working without internet :). Whenever I need to install some python libraries from a git repositories, I see a lot of way to do it. It is really confusing. This should be the reason why I can't memorize it. I can see how a very simple requirement is handled with to many confusing way. There shouldn't be to many way. Some of them is not working neither. At last, I decided to blog it.

As you may know, you can use two protocols which are http and ssh to do something on git repositories. Using protocol ssh instead of http may provide some ease of use. Because of nature of ssh, you can do something with your primary/public keys. So, you don't have to input your credentials all the time. But I'll be

Never touch your local /etc/hosts file in OS X again

To setup your computer to work with *.test domains, e.g. project.test, awesome.test and so on, without having to add to your hosts file each time.

Requirements

Homebrew
Mountain Lion -> High Sierra

Install

Issue

If you installed Timeshift from the AUR package (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/timeshift/), you'll find that scheduled backups may not work. This is due to cronie being disabled by default.

Fix

Check if cronie is present first:

systemctl list-unit-files | grep cronie

To see current swap usage

sysctl -a | grep swap

Use only when when your system is in a very bad shape

$ sudo pkill -HUP -u _windowserver

How to set up PulseAudio over Network

PulseAudio actually has great networking capabilities. Especially when combined with Avahi/Zeroconf it is especially easy to set up, though technically it should also be possible without.

Setting up the server

Open /etc/pulseaudio/default.pa
At the end of the file, add load-module module-native-protocol-tcp auth-ip-acl=127.0.0.1;192.168.254.0/24 auth-anonymous=1 to activate networked audio from 192.168.254.0-255 without needing authentication.
Kill pulseaudio, it should be auto-restarted, or restart your login session to activate the changes. You should now be able to set PULSE_SERVER=192.168.254.XXX and have the remote audio working! If not check the firewall settings, PulseAudio seems to open a random port by default.

Setting up automatic configuration and discovery

On both the server and client, install pulseaudio-module-zeroconf and avahi, then after installing make sure Avahi always runs by running systemctl enable --now avahi-daemon

Falsehoods programmers believe about time

This is a compiled list of falsehoods programmers tend to believe about working with time.

Don't re-invent a date time library yourself. If you think you understand everything about time, you're probably doing it wrong.

Falsehoods

There are always 24 hours in a day.
February is always 28 days long.
Any 24-hour period will always begin and end in the same day (or week, or month).

Code is clean if it can be understood easily – by everyone on the team. Clean code can be read and enhanced by a developer other than its original author. With understandability comes readability, changeability, extensibility and maintainability.

General rules

Follow standard conventions.
Keep it simple stupid. Simpler is always better. Reduce complexity as much as possible.
Boy scout rule. Leave the campground cleaner than you found it.
Always find root cause. Always look for the root cause of a problem.
