And this is the proof:

(Of course, if you know about SystemVersion.plist, skip this entry ;)

A friend of mine told me that on techie blogs there is a new meme going on: show off the most used commands, starting from shell history:

history | \
awk '{a[$2]++}END{for(i in a){print a[i] " " i}}' | \
sort -rn | head -15

I’ve got 20 times the default bash history size (10k lines), so it’ll yield interesting results. I also use the history timestamp feature, so I’ve added a little sed to the code in order to strip timestamps out.

Let’s see:

vjt@voyager:~/code*$* history | 
 sed 's#^[ 0-9\[\/\:]*\]\([^ ]*\).*#\1#' |  
 awk '{a[$1]++}END{for(i in a){print a[i] " " i}}' | 
 sort -rn | head -15

Yeah, I do a LOT of ls, l is actually ls -alFGs (I’m on Darwin). This list exposes my recent habits, because I’m coding less and managing more (no gcc, no irb, lots of dig & whois). svn is still there, of course ;). ssh means that these results should be aggregated with other histories coming from the other boxes I log on to.. but that’s a topic for another post ;).

Which are your results?

Post them here! :D

UPDATE 2008-06-03

As my recent habits are more coding than writing docs, I re-ran the history analysis.. and these are the new results:

Well, this is the result of 2 days of head-banging with lightwindow:

Index: public/javascripts/lightwindow.js, line 444

  _removeLink : function(removed) {
    // remove it from the links array
    //
    this.links = this.links.reject(function(link) {
      if (link == removed.href)
        return true;
    });
    // remove it from the gallery links array
    //
    if (gallery = this._getGalleryInfo(removed.rel)) {
      klass = gallery[0];
      name = gallery[1];
      if (this.galleries[klass] && this.galleries[klass][name]) {
        this.galleries[klass][name] = 
          this.galleries[klass][name].reject(function(link) {
            if (link == removed.href)
              return true;
          });
      }
    }
  },

Call this function from your .rjs template, something like this:

page << "myLightWindow._removeLink($('element').down('a.lightwindow'));"

More details to follow, when this work will be complete ;).

Well, it seems that I’ve got no reason to be paranoid about my age: I still can do inline like I did (everyday) when I was a bit younger :).

On international workers day, 1st of May, Sam literally carried me out from home, far from the computer, and we went skating. It’s been an awesome day, we skated a lot, and shot some nice photos.

But the real good ones have been shot when ndstr caught us. He is by far the best photographer you could meet, and of course my favorite one (take a look at his site !).

He’s been also a skater, so he knows very very well how and when to shoot in order to take out the most from your tricks :). Here are two of them, portraying me and Sam while doing our best!

It was fun. Really fun. Thank you Sam for taking me out of home :D.

Oh, and don’t forget to visit my deviantArt , and look at this one :D
