a simple git branching model (written in 2013)

This is a very simple git workflow. It (and variants) is in use by many people. I settled on it after using it very effectively at Athena. GitHub does something similar; Zach Holman mentioned it in this talk.

Update: Woah, thanks for all the attention. Didn't expect this simple rant to get popular.

#REQUIRES -Version 3.0

# This is a simple sample for access the MS UIAutomation in PowerShell. 
# In this sample:
#  1. Load the MS UIA via System.Reflection.Assembly
#  2. Launch the AUT ( calc.exe )
#  3. Find the AutomationElement via the AUT Process Id
#  4. Find buttons via 'ClassName' and 'Name' property
#  5. Click the '1', '+', '1', '=' buttons. 
# At last, we will get '2' in the result of calc App.

  Purpose: This include file simplifies the setup of Sitecore CD instances by removing any references to the Master database from Sitecore configuration files.

  This include file should be used only on CD servers. 

  Important: Include files are applied in alphabetical order. Therefore this include file cannot remove any references to the Master database 
  that are defined in include files that are applied later. In this situation, you must rename this include file so that it is applied after 
  any other include files that contain references to "master" database.

Don't use VPN services.

No, seriously, don't. You're probably reading this because you've asked what VPN service to use, and this is the answer.

Note: The content in this post does not apply to using VPN for their intended purpose; that is, as a virtual private (internal) network. It only applies to using it as a glorified proxy, which is what every third-party "VPN provider" does.

• A Turkish translation can be found here, contributed by agyild.
• There's also this article about VPN services, which is honestly better written (and has more cat pictures!) than my article.
