My wife – a good web designer with 6 years of experience with web design, HTML and CSS is looking for a job. Here is some information about her:
We’re physically located in Toronto, Canada, but she has a great experience of working remotely too. So, if you need a web designer or a junior web designer, feel free to contact Tanya.
Another short post just to remember the procedure for the next time I’ll be setting up a new mac. For those of my readers who do not know what Midnight Commander (aka mc) is, GNU Midnight Commander is a visual file manager, created under a heavy influence of Norton Commander file manager from dark DOS ages 🙂 For more information, you can visit their web site. Now, get to the installation topic itself.
To install mc on a Mac OS X machine, you need macports installed and then first thing you’ll need to do is to install some prerequisite libraries:
1 | $ sudo port install libiconv slang2 |
Next thing, download the sources from their web site and unpack them. When the sources are ready, you can configure the build:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 | $ ./configure \ --prefix=/opt/mc \ --with-screen=slang \ --enable-extcharset \ --enable-charset \ --with-libiconv-prefix=/opt/local \ --with-slang-includes=/opt/local/include \ --with-slang-libs=/opt/local/lib |
Then, normal GNU-style build and install procedure:
1 2 3 | $ make ........ $ sudo make install |
And the last thing would be to add /opt/mc/bin to your PATH environment variable.
Few days ago we were chatting in our corporate Campfire room and one of the guys asked me what do I think about our hiring process for Rails developers, what questions I’d ask a candidate if I was interviewing and so on. Those questions sparkled a really long and interesting discussion and I would like to share my thoughts on the topic in this post.
Inspired by the Rail Spikes:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 | bash-3.2$ history 1000 | awk '{a[$2]++}END{for(i in a){print a[i] " " i}}' | sort -rn | head 228 cd 167 git 10 ssh 10 DEPLOY=production 6 sudo 6 pwd 6 ./script/import_views.rb 5 rm 4 rake 4 mv bash-3.2$ |
Really interesting stats, I’d never guess that git is used more than ssh on my desktop (I’m a remote worker and mysql consultant so I ssh really often). 🙂
