This gist shows how to create a GIF screencast using only free OS X tools: QuickTime, ffmpeg, and gifsicle.
To capture the video (filesize: 19MB), using the free "QuickTime Player" application:
# Mac OS X Lion introduced a new, iOS-like context menu when you press and hold a key | |
# that enables you to choose a character from a menu of options. If you are on Lion | |
# try it by pressing and holding down 'e' in any app that uses the default NSTextField | |
# for input. | |
# | |
# It's a nice feature and continues the blending of Mac OS X and iOS features. However, | |
# it's a nightmare to deal with in Sublime Text if you're running Vintage (Vim) mode, | |
# as it means you cannot press and hold h/j/k/l to move through your file. You have | |
# to repeatedly press the keys to navigate. |

Very simple HTTP server in python (Updated for Python 3.7) | |

# As the "bufferbloat" folks have recently re-discovered and/or more widely | |
# publicized, congestion avoidance algorithms (such as those found in TCP) do | |
# a great job of allowing network endpoints to negotiate transfer rates that | |
# maximize a link's bandwidth usage without unduly penalizing any particular | |
# stream. This allows bulk transfer streams to use the maximum available | |
# bandwidth without affecting the latency of non-bulk (e.g. interactive) | |
# streams. |
