Mac OS X 10.10 Yosemite Setup

Mac OS X 10.10 Yosemite

Custom recipe to get OS X 10.10 Yosemite running from scratch, setup applications and developer environment. I use this gist to keep track of the important software and steps required to have a functioning system after a semi-annual fresh install. On average, I reinstall each computer from scratch every 6 months, and I do not perform upgrades between distros.

This keeps the system performing at top speeds, clean of trojans, spyware, and ensures that I maintain good organizational practices for my content and backups. I highly recommend this.

You are encouraged to fork this and modify it to your heart's content to match your own needs.

Common UI pattern problem with a simple solution: Space elements without having an extra set of padding at the bottom of a container.
- Div has 10px padding on all sides.
- P or LI's have margin-bottom to space out the next element.
- What you're left with is a giant space at the bottom of the div from the combined properties: padding-bottom: 10px on the Div and margin-bottom: 15px on the last child element. So, instead of using :last-child to try and un-do the styles set on each element, why not set it differently in the first place?

The starter stylesheet I use for nearly all my projects these days. Includes a Sublime Text snippet, activated by typing `css.starter` and hitting tab. Spits out the contents of s.css. Enjoy!

This is my backup script which syncs my server to my dropbox every day.

The script below is triggered every day from my Mac. I use Hazel to move the tar.gz to an external hard disk once it's finished. This happens every day without me noticing. You can exclude folders if you want to. You probably want to exclude giant cache folders.

You should have a similar script.
