- onion2k 11y agoProbably bind or httpd ... the fundamental tools that took the internet and transformed it in to the World Wide Web. I wouldn't have a career, a hobby, a financee, or 20 years of interesting experiences without them (well, I would, but it'd have been very different, and possibly worse, so yay for the web). Plus they've helped a few other people do some cool stuff too as far as I can tell.
- colinbartlett 11y agoGotta be Tim Pope's vim plugins for me. I can't imagine how unproductive my everyday existence would be without Fugitive, Projectionist, Dispatch, Unimpaired, the list goes on and on.
