…leaving JavaScript as an afterthought, whereas my PHP, Bash and Python code are first-class citizens.
However, I've started building more complex, object-driven code. As the complexity grows, it's become rather obvious that it needs to be covered by proper unit tests. The question was how. So I started looking around for the best available JavaScript unit testing libraries and came across the following:
* QUnit
* Mocha
* Jasmine
* Sinon.JS …

Python has similar structural complexities to Ruby and adds in the additional complexity of an introspectable call stack. Under those circumstances, even on-stack execution state is not safe; a VM can't even make guarantees about the values it has in hand or the shape of a given call's activation. PyPy does an admirable job of attacking this problem by rewriting currently-running code and lifting on-stack state to the heap when it is accessed, but this approach prevents dropping …
…found this handy guide to the Minecraft Pi Protocol . Finally, I found a Python library called mcpipy that implements the Minecraft Pi Protocol in Python.
Between looking at the Minecraft Pi Protocol documentation and peeking at the mcpipy source code, it's pretty easy to figure out how to control Minecraft from Python. My next step was to figure out how to draw something cool. Naturally, the first thing to come to mind was fractals, but it's not so easy …

There was also a lot of work put into generating omnibus builds of Chef for both SmartOS and Free BSD.
Here's a description of one of the projects:
We created Chef Stock to provide an extensible solution to inventory and expense management of infrastructure across disparate providers using chef nodes and attributes as our source of truth. We created a Django webui backed by a redis cache, which is populated from chef server. …

Armed with ZNC, I've setup the following things:
I've configured ZNC to automatically set me away on IRC when my last client disconnects. My away message tells the user that my timezone is in Europe, and kindly refers him to the Phusion Passenger support page in case I don't respond quickly enough.
I've also setup my IRC client to display a notification whenever …
