…nginx-app and php-fpm recipes (along with our launchpad repository ).
Problem?
The other day, I noticed that for some reason whenever our API returned an error — e.g. a 404, for an empty result — it would display a standard nginx error page and not the actual response.
Solution

…called "Springboard". The name fits, but I think a better one is used by OS X: Launchpad. To Apple, iOS is a launchpad for the ecosystem of apps that define the platform. iOS may not evolve much visually year over year, but the third-party software available today is nothing like the apps that shipped when the App Store opened. Something like Hipstamatic which was considered cutting edge and pushing boundaries in 2008 looks bloated and antiquated compared to a Camera+ or Instagram…

I just installed Lion today, though I had been using the Developer Previews for a while now. I like Lion, but some things irk me. I've compiled a list of tips that I use to make my experience more sane, most specifically, clearing the list of apps in Launchpad (which I couldn't find discussed anywhere else).
