Setting up dnsmasq for Local Web Development Testing on any Device
# Setting up dnsmasq for Local Web Development Testing on any Device
Please note, these instructions are for OS X Lion.
First, you need to get the IP address of your machine on your local network. In OS X, the easiest place to find this is in System Preferences > Network. If you're using DHCP on your local network, you will want to make sure your computer requests the same IP address when it renews it's IP address lease. I recommend configuring the DCHP Reservation settings on your router to accomplish this. Otherwise, you can specify a manual address in your network settings:
1. Go to *System Preferences > Network*
1. Click *Advanced...*

Quick doesn't have to mean dirty: Also applies to PHP!

Quick doesn't have to mean dirty: Also applies to PHP!

This is just a quick response to http://me.veekun.com/blog/2012/07/28/quick-doesnt-mean-dirty/. I won't bother to write a proper blog post for this, so a Gist will have to do ;)

When I read that article, one thing really striked me: If you want to quickly create a web app in PHP, you do exactly the same. I mean, exactly.

I never used the Silex microframework before, so I took this as a chance to see how it works. I'll just do the same as eevee did, only with a bit less commentary (this is a Gist after all!)

I hope that this will show you that PHP and Python are really similar to work with. Also this should show that just because you're using PHP, doesn't mean that you write dirty code. The similarity in the process and code is really incredible :)

Business models based on the compiled list at http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4924647. I find the link very hard to browse, so I made a simple version in Markdown instead.

A real world usage for git subtrees.

Let's say you have an iOS project, and you want to use some external library, like AFNetworking. How do you integrate it?

With submodules

Add the project to your repo:

git submodule add git@github.com:AFNetworking/AFNetworking.git Vendor/AFNetworking

or something to that effect.
