From Krystof with Love
For a few years now, I’ve been organizing a just-about-annual whitewater rafting trip for a few friends to the South Fork American River near Sacramento, CA. Here’s a short video of some highlights from the 2015 and 2016 trips:
I’ve done this trip with a company, too, but there’s a special magic that makes private trips better. Here’s hoping we can keep it going for many years to come.
For a while now, I’ve had a gradually-expanding note with various git commands that I’ve been using as a cheat sheet for git tasks that I do not do often, but regularly enough to write them down.
I figure putting them here will not only make them (slightly) easier to get to every time, but may also help other folks out.
So here they are! Keep in mind that this is just a quick (and intentionally incomplete) cheat sheet – if you are learning git for the first time, you’re better off looking elsewhere this is a good place to start.
Without doubt, Southern California is a great place to live.
Here’s a quick video that captures just a few of the fun things I did in a single weekend - May 2-3, 2015 in LA.
In order, the things I filmed:
A solid SoCal weekend!
I lived in New York City from 2013 through 2015. These are some of my favorite photos I took during my time there.
The city orbits around eight million
centers of the universe
and turns around the golden clock
at the still point of this place.
Lift up your eyes from the moving hive
and you will see time circling
under a vault of stars and know
just when and where you are.

The ceiling at Grand Central Station is beautiful indeed - and easy to miss. Next time you’re there, take a break to admire it.

Emacs is my favorite editor, and python is my favorite scripting language. Sometimes, though, silly syntax errors in python don’t get caught until runtime, which is a really inefficient way of finding them.
This post is a guide in getting started with pylint inside emacs. Pylint does finds syntax and other issues, so you can spot and fix them as soon as you make them. It can also be used to enforce style guides, notably pep8. With the Flycheck emacs extension, pylint’s output will be shown right inside your emacs buffers.
