Deploy your site with git

Deploy your site with git

This gist assumes:

  • you have a local git repo
  • with an online remote repository (github / bitbucket etc)
  • and a cloud server (Rackspace cloud / Amazon EC2 etc)
    • your (PHP) scripts are served from /var/www/html/
    • your webpages are executed by apache
  • apache's home directory is /var/www/
My proposal is a declarative syntax for defining replaceable blocks, very much akin to the
way this is done in Django and some other templating systems. Here is simple example:
super.mustache:
<html>
<head><title>{{$title}}Default title{{/title}}</title></head>
<body>
{{>navigation}}
<div class="content">
{{$content}}Default content of the page{{/content}}

My thoughts on MessagePack

My thoughts on MessagePack

Hi. My name is Sadayuki "Sada" Furuhashi. I am the author of the MessagePack serialization format as well as its implementation in C/C++/Ruby.

Recently, MessagePack made it to the front page of Hacker News with this blog entry by Olaf, the creator of the Facebook game ZeroPilot. In the comment thread, there were several criticisms for the blog post as well as MessagePack itself, and I thought this was a good opportunity for me to address the questions and share my thoughts.

My high-level response to the comments

To the best of my understanding, roughly speaking, the criticisms fell into the following two categories.

node_modules in git

December 10 2011
By mikeal

One of the many things we have been forced to rethink in the world of node is how we handle dependencies in applications.

One of the big changes that came with 0.4.0 was support for node_modules. This change had major consequences. It elevated local modules, in a local directory, above modules installed globally. Along with npm changing its default install preference to local rather than global we've seen a nearly unanimous shift to local module installs that has made global installs somewhat distasteful.
