// package spooler implements a disk-persistent queue.
//
// Spooler uses MDB (LMDB) to implement a queue of byteslices. Its intended usecase
// is to enqueue work items received by a service before later working them off.
// Note that Spooler only flushes to disk up to once every 25ms. As a result,
// if the process or machine crashes unexpectedly, the most recent 25ms of work
// can be lost. This decision effectively increases throughput by 10,000%,
// but makes spooler unsuitable for jobs that absolutely cannot be allowed to fail
// under any circumstances.

Day job: Polyglot senior developer primarily doing ruby/rails.

Favorite Python project: Probably mercurial, even though I am a git user at heart. Flask is also fantastic.

Favorite Conference: I don't have any conferences under my belt yet :(

Python Experience Level: Just out of the beginner phase into amateur or weekend warrior. Let me get my battle axe...

Badass git pull alternative

Add this little snippet to your ~/.gitconfig and it amps up your git pull by means of git up

1. Adds in a list of the commits you're pulling down
2. Auto-prunes remote branches
3. Defaults to pull --rebase - gets rid of unnecessary merge commits. If you don't know what rebase does, this is probably safe for you. If you know what rebase does, you should know where this will not be safe for you.

Scott Chacon and Ryan Tomayko basically figured out how to do this and I am stealing all of the credit.
