If you’re wondering why the CCacheServer daemon, that caches in memory
Kerberos tickets obtained via kinit(1) is NOT starting .. that’s because of a
strange bug regarding the LimitLoadToSessionType specified into the agent
.plist, located into
/System/Library/LaunchAgents/edu.mit.kerberos.CCacheServer.plist on OSX 10.5
systems.
CCacheServer will then be instantiated when you do a kinit:
$ kinit
Please enter the password for vjt@DOMAIN.LOCAL:
$ klist
Kerberos 5 ticket cache: 'API:Initial default ccache'
Default principal: vjt@DOMAIN.LOCAL
Valid Starting Expires Service Principal
11/12/08 20:59:35 11/13/08 06:59:14 krbtgt/DOMAIN.LOCAL@DOMAIN.LOCAL
renew until 11/19/08 20:59:35
The bug is strange because the LimitLoadToSessionType key actually should
instruct launchd to automatically start up the daemon and run it once for
every logged in
user,
when kinit asks its services. But, if the key is set in the .plist, a
launchctl load on it fails with “nothing found to load”. Weird!
If you use github-provided lighthouse integration, from the “Admin” pages of
your git repository, you may have stumbled upon on a glitch: every changeset on
lighthouse appears as done by the lighthouse user that configured the
integration on github.
This happens because lighthouse uses the API token to link changeset authors to
LH users, and that’s not good when you’re not alone committing :-).
A simple solution is to use a post-commit hook, as described
here,
but that’s not satisfactory because it means that every time you issue git
commit on your console, the commit message will go public, and if you --amend
or reset --soft the index you’ll have to browse to lighthouse and delete the
changeset.
A much smarter solution is to push all changed revs when pushing them to
github: I modified the original post-commit
hook and installed it alongside the git
command in $(dirname which git)/git-lh.
This gives me a new git lh command that fetches the current HEAD revision
from github using refs/heads/master and POSTs every changeset between that
rev and the current tip in the working tree to lighthouse.
So, if you issue git lh before issuing git push, every change you’re
pushing to github will go to lighthouse, too.
UPDATE: A simple bash script like:
#!/bin/bash
git lh && git push
saved as git-lh-push saves you from typing two commands when you want to push
:).
“Quando ti sembra di avere troppe cose da gestire nella vita, quando 24 ore in
un giorno non sono abbastanza, ricordati del vaso della Maionese e dei due
bicchieri di vino…”
Un professore stava davanti alla sua classe di filosofia e aveva davanti alcuni
oggetti.
Quando la classe incominciò a zittirsi, prese un grande barattolo di maionese
vuoto e lo iniziò a riempire di palline da golf. Chiese poi agli studenti se il
barattolo fosse pieno e costoro risposero che lo fosse.
Il professore allora prese un barattolo di ghiaia e la rovesciò nel barattolo
di maionese. Lo scosse leggermente e i sassolini si posizionarono negli spazi
vuoti, tra le palline da golf. Chiese di nuovo agli studenti se il barattolo
fosse pieno e questi concordarono che lo fosse.
Il professore prese allora una scatola di sabbia e la rovesciò, aggiungendola
nel barattolo; ovviamente la sabbia si sparse ovunque all’interno. Chiese
ancora una voltase il barattolo fosse pieno e gli studenti risposero con un
unanime “Sì!”.
Il professore estrasse quindi due bicchieri di vino da sotto la cattedra e
aggiunse il loro intero contenuto nel barattolo, andando così effettivamente a
riempire gli spazi vuoti nella sabbia. Gli studenti risero.
“Ora”, disse il professore non appena la risata si fu placata, “voglio che
consideriate questo barattolo come la vostra Vita. Le palle da golf sono le
cose importanti: la vostra famiglia, i vostri bambini, la vostra salute, i
vostri amici e le vostre Passioni; le cose per cui, se anche tutto il resto
andasse perduto e solo queste rimanessero, la vostra vita continuerebbe ad
essere piena. I sassolini sono le altre cose che hanno importanza, come il
vostro lavoro, la casa, la macchina… La sabbia è tutto il resto: le piccole
cose.
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

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)
returntrue;
});
// 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) {

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