I'm considering setting up a Jenkins instance to work with my GitHub projects. I'm miss JUnit XML integration.

Rather scary to hear just how broken modern CPUs are without microcode updates: http://t.co/W2RXxLq4q3

Mercurial has 'Features of Last Resort'. I love that idea. Provide great defaults, help users, but leave users' options open.

atop is a nice, easily installed system-level monitoring tool. It collects CPU/memory usage per process over time for later inspection.

I have yet to meet an Emacs user who uses Icicles. Is it worth playing with?

The async library is a huge boon, but I'm still finding it hard to avoid deeply indented callbacks in node.js code.

Hah, getting Emacs koans on my stack exchange question: http://t.co/Gwy71q9sPd

I'm beginning to prefer JS without trailing semicolons. If you know the (rare) gotchas, it's less to read and type.

Arch Linux feels a lot more snappy after running pacman-optimize and rankmirrors. Should have done it earlier.

I'm not sure it's wise to put "we're hiring" in the console on a site. If I open the console, it's usually because the site isn't working.
