Seriously impressed with https://github.com/joddie/pcre2el . Convert PCRE to Emacs regexp, or even convert an arbitrary regexp to an `rx` form!
It's also caused me to miss my station on two separate occasions.
Writing GNU Emacs Extensions is excellent. It's accessible to elisp newbies but experienced elispers will probably learn new things too.

python-django.el lets you do `manage.py runserver` inside Emacs. You can then set breakpoints and follow the code inside Emacs. Awesome.

https://github.com/jcoglan/coping The most elegant solution escaping HTML that I've ever seen.
#Emacs tip: if you want to discard TAGS tables you've been using, use tags-reset-tags-tables (I reimplemented this before knowing about it!)
.@documentcloud Looking at the underscore.js docs, I'd find it easier to skim if each category was sorted alphabetically. Do you agree?
TIL that #Python has the -B switch, or the PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE environment variable (since 2.6). Handy.
Interesting question: what would you do if Python had macros? (My thoughts: http://t.co/OuIvONt6yG )
