Hard drives are growing and growing. You can now get 3 TB hard drives and have a ton of storage in each server. But then you notice that your current preseed files are crashing when attempting to install grub2. You hit “alt-f4″ to check for any errors in the logs and all you see are errors about grub2 not being...
One of the projects I’m enjoying working on right now is the Eucalyptus Recipes project, which you can find on Github. I actually hacked together some code, and even checked it in! Needless to say, patches welcome. And if “patches” means “complete replacement with better code,” that’s fine also.
The goal is to build a collection of recipes (small right now, but growing) that any Eucalyptus user can inject into the boot process of...
If you press * in the Vim editor it will search for the next place where the word the cursor is over appears. The # key does the same thing, but searches backwards instead.

- Exploratory (also called ad-hoc) which allows testers to test strange and unusual codepaths
- Use Case which intends to simulate as closely as possible the end to end solution that will be deployed
- Usablility which aims to test whether the product meets the...
In my last post I detailed how to set up your own MeetBot to log your IRC presentations. In this post I want to discuss how to log a screen cast your demonstration shell for later viewing. While MeetBot can log your session interactions in IRC (such as lecture/talk and questions/answers from the audience), using shell...
All kinds of articles on the Internet tell you how to revert a range of git commits in one massive, squashed-together revert commit. But to split them up into separate revert commits you have to pass a list of commits to git revert, and that list has to go in reverse order to avoid conflicts.
git rev-list --reverse ${last_good_commit}.. | xargs git revert
