 * This Google Sheets script keeps data in the specified column sorted any time

 * After much research, there wasn't an easy way to automatically keep a column
 * sorted in Google Sheets, and creating a second sheet to act as a "view" to
 * my primary one in order to achieve that was not an option. Instead, I
 * created a script that watches for when a cell is edited and triggers
 * an auto sort.

Saving iMovie Projects to Network Volumes

The problem

Apple's iMovie saves its Projects and Events files as folders named "/Documents/Movies/iMovie\ Events", "/Documents/Movies/iMovie\ Projects". You are not able to change this location using the app, however, you can use iMovie to move these folders to an external drive. On that drive, both of these folders MUST be at the root, i.e. "/Volumes/Footage/iMovie\ Events" and "/Volumes/Footage/iMovie\ Projects". If you open iMovie while an external drive has these folders at root, iMovie will automatically add them to its event and project library.

Unfortunately, you can't do this trick with network volumes by default. You can do some tricks with symlinks but when using them across volumes they are unreliable and iMovie will loose track of information.

Quick virtualenv fix on Mountain Lion

Overview

It appears that Apple somehow broke Python in Mountain Lion, so even with the latest Command Line Tools and Xcode 4.4 virtualenv won't properly work. During virtual environment creation it will try to install easy_install inside /Library hierarchy. So let's give it a quick workaround. Let's install custom python into your $HOME-directory using pythonbrew!

Installing proper Command Line Tools

Without the Apple Mac Developer account you won't even see the proper download link for the latest CL Tools and the old one won't work on ML. So here's the link: http://goo.gl/iBTXh. It points towards the Apple website so don't worry.

One-line Tree in Python

Using Python's built-in defaultdict we can easily define a tree data structure:

def tree(): return defaultdict(tree)

That's it!
