Re: Setup & development software for Macs?

2013-06-27 Thread Mark Struberg
Btw, we could do the same for Win* as well. I usually only use *nix (Linux, 
Solaris and AIX) or Mac, but sometimes I'm forced to use Windows at some 
customers.

I _never_ touch those Windows boxes without the following tools installed:

* Console2: http://sourceforge.net/projects/console/files/console-devel/2.00/
This is a multi-browser-tab console which is dynamically resizeable. You can 
also define mark, copy & paste gestures for your mouse (like in Unix). There 
are also tons of hot-keys e.g. for switching between those console tabs. And 
you can of course install your own shells into it!

* msysgit: http://code.google.com/p/msysgit/

Not only is GIT itself great, but it comes with a really great bash out of the 
box! There is a vi and even the file browsing is unix style: c:\windows is 
available as /c/windows/. Tab completion works well, etc

Now you can easily add the bash from msysgit to Console2 as new default console 
tabs and you end up with a resizeable multi-tab Unix shell for windows, with 
less, vi, tail, find -exec, tee, wc, ... !


* VirtuaWin http://virtuawin.sourceforge.net/?page_id=2
This gives you a few 'virtual desktops' as you know it from many Unix window 
managers. Very useful if you have to work with multiple projects open at the 
same time.

Sorry for the slight OT, hope some of you find this useful.

Software Conference October 2013, Italy

2013-06-27 Thread Maurizio Taverna
*

Hello,

I'm an Apache committer on the Isis project and currently involved in the
organization of a Software Conference in Sicily, October 3-4, 2013.

You can find more information on the event website[1], promo video[2] and a
post on JavaCodeGeeks[3].

The conference targets software developers and other professionals in the
software industry, all sharing a common interest on Cloud Computing, Open
Source and Mobile Development

The conference is founded on the idea of providing a community for
learning, networking and tracking innovation in software development.

A number of speakers are Apache Members, other speakers are developers and
professionals involved in Open Source. The conference event would also be
good marketing opportunity for ASF, to invite developers to join the ASF.

As part of our commitment to a successful event, we have involved local
people and volunteers of nonprofit organizations, included perks in the
conference, such as lunch, happy hour and shuttle transfer from/to airport.

We have contacted many sponsors in the hopes of sponsorship, however,
feedback has been minimal.

We would have loved to make the conference pass free to attendees, however,
this was not feasible, so in order to recover expenses a ticket purchase is
required.

This said, any opportunity for any type of support and collaboration would
be greatly appreciated.

If you need any additional information, please do not hesitate to contact
me.

Please advise if there is different Apache group in which to send the
email.

Cheers
Maurizio*

BBEdit and Sublime Text 2.

Depends... FileVault does add some overhead, but the later Macs
handle that extremely well. However, no matter what the overhead,
using disk encryption is always a good idea.

Install xcode and the commandline tools that come with it (look in
preferences).

I use homebrew http://brew.sh/ in preference to macports.

apple's term is good, but I like http://www.iterm2.com/ better.

http://www.sourcetreeapp.com/ is free if you give atlassian an email address.

http://mouapp.com/ is a super-simple markdown editor that imho gets
things right.

bikesheds galore :-). I spend 80% of my day in komodo ide (but the
free komodo edit is very nice too), 20% vi, occasionally sublime text,
but I never really liked it. Aquamacs is nice for people who drank the
kool-aid.

Other stuff I use:

## passwords

http://www.keepassx.org/  there are fancier tools but it's opensource
https://github.com/keepassx/keepassx

## communicating

skype but I would love a SIP-based OSS alternative

IRC: textual http://www.codeux.com/textual/  is nice, BSD licenced,
but you can buy a built copy from app store.
http://limechat.net/mac/ is another popular option.

## apps

vlc http://www.videolan.org/vlc/index.html for watching videos.

firefox nightly + chrome canary for web dev.

If you sign up for the free microsoft MSDN deal that ASF gets, you can
install excel/word/powerpoint etc if you need them.

Amazon's free Kindle.app for reading books (lots of gutenberg project
ones & similar free stories in mobi format)
calibre http://calibre-ebook.com/ for managing all my ebooks (on an
aging Kindle DX).

fluid.app turns browser windows into separate "apps" http://fluidapp.com/

vmware fusion + vagrant & ansible for spinning up instances everywhere
and configuring them.

## storage

MacZFS http://code.google.com/p/maczfs/ is pretty good, albeit an old
version. once I got past 4GiB of RAM I've had no trouble. SSD with zfs
compression is nifty, I have it on a 2nd internal drive.

I use openafs instead of dropbox.

backup: arq http://www.haystacksoftware.com/arq/ I used backblaze and
time machine for backups, but I prefer controlling my own storage.

github & bitbucket for really important stuff.

## productivity

launchers - http://www.alfredapp.com/
  others swear by http://qsapp.com/ quicksilver, the latter is
free https://github.com/quicksilver/Quicksilver and ALv2 licenced.

pomodoro app is great, https://github.com/ugol/pomodoro BSD licenced
but you can buy from app store

http://www.pomodoroapp.com/help/pomodoro-timer-for-mac/ is a more
GTD-heavy app, with a free option.
