I compile my own binaries. Not too bad actually.

`apt` isn't that bad, really—it's been available for a year or two now, and will likely replace apt-get and friends eventually (apt-cache, dpkg, dselect, are pretty horrible user experience really). RPM hasn't been a package

I always install to /opt/brew and I see a few packages compile, but I see bottles being used too. Now that you mention it, I guess most software that needs to link against dynamic libraries wouldn't work from bottle unless yo

Yes, it is literally just Ubuntu underneath, but they don't mention that on the release notes—it bothers me that they're not more open about that. Every two years, they take the latest long-term support (LTS) Ubuntu release and th

So it uses less memory than x265, but is it faster? Does it produce better output?

The article links to the leak, where there are 4K screenshots of the leaked (DCP) version and the Blu-ray version, and the leaked version looks much nicer. :)

The article links to the leak, where there are screenshots from both the DCP and US Blu-ray versions of the movie. The new (DCP) source looks way better, has much more detail. Both are in H.264 format at obscenely-high bit rates. Other than

You might want to install Objective-See's free BlockBlock tool to block these type of things: https://twitter.com/objective_see/status/771189100355264512 Also, their other (free, open source) tools are very g

I've been trying to like pkgsrc on Mac OS X for a few years now. The one you link to provides binaries, and is sponsored by Joyent. The main deal breaker for me there is that they only update their packages every quarter (currently 201

Wow, that's almost as bad as a few months ago when they enabled the analytics feature that sends data to Google Analytics for every brew install, list, search, error, etc[0]. Thanks for pointing this out, I've disabled the auto up

Slightly related, I push my site's generated code from the `public` directory of my repo directly to the `gh-pages` branch using git's subtree push: $ git subtree push --prefix=public origin gh-pages

Thank you for making a sane default based on actual usage data. BTW, for people who need something a bit different, I have been using this for one of my sites that is hosted on GitHub: $ git subtree push --prefix=public origin gh-pages

Does it have the ability to pop up on outgoing request? That's Little Snitch's killer feature.

Cheaper than Little Snitch[0], which has been the firewall of choice for privacy-conscious Mac OS X users for over a decade. I wonder how it compares. It's a shame that neither is open source. Also, I always wondered why there was noth

The article mentions Flash content slows web page loading and is power inefficient. Flash also has an abysmal security record. Chrome 53 will start blocking certain kinds of Flash usage, and Chrome 55, in December 2016, will go further. Gre

Wow, I didn't know about opendiff. Indeed, I will use that when I need something graphical. Cheers!

Not so great on Mac OS X. For remote diffs over SSH I don't mind vimdiff to be honest, but sometimes I just want a graphical diff locally. I miss meld from GNU/Linux and can't bring myself to brew install it because GTK on Ma
