		<title>Fixing IRB autocompletion on OSX</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Using macports version of ruby (and irb), I noticed that the lovely and wonderful tab autocompletion wasn't working: $ irb --simple-prompt >> "foo".cap (The tab key! It does nothing!) So you can see that I was hitting tab expecting to see .cap resolve to .capitalize but it did nothing. I'm not quite sure if this [...]]]></description>

		<title>Fit-PC2 and Ubuntu 10.04</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I had Ubuntu 9.04 running on my Fit-PC2 and I wanted to move up to 10.04. I ran: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade and it chugged along doing the update. Install went fine and I was impressed that you can jump major revs like that. Although there was one bit of weirdness: when I [...]]]></description>

		<title>IRB return trick</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Irb, like ruby and many other languages, returns things to the left. When you say: x = 5 5 gets sent to x and x gets sent to the console or to the bit bucket if nothing is watching for it. Irb with Ruby will tell you this explicitly which is great for debugging and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Technology Knowledge Debt, Part One</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As a follow-up to my previous post where I psuedo-whined about common knowledge gaps in technology projects, I thought I'd try to contribute a solution to the problem. I'll list out each of the areas that I previously posted about; the areas I think people are behind on. It's knowledge debt. When you don't spend [...]]]></description>

		<title>Dearth Patterns</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There seems to be a lack of understanding and experience in the same areas from project to project, company to company and sector to sector. It's nothing specific to any one company. I've seen this in small .com companies to large contractors. It's very odd to me. Even if everyone can't know everything, it seems [...]]]></description>

		<title>Changing DroboFS passwords</title>
		<description><![CDATA[First off, this DroboFS is awesome. However some of the apps are a little thin on the docs and there were a few things I had to figure out. So first a few assumptions, you didn't change your drobo's name. I actually did and that's ok, just in this post, it's called drobo-fs which affects [...]]]></description>

		<title>Watchr Unit Tests + Growl + Doomguy</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I read this post about setting up autotest with growl. The little doomguy was a nice effect and got a literal lol out of me (llol?). However, the post was from 2007 and apparently autotest has some problems with 1.9. I'm not running 1.9 but on the eve of rails3, I probably will be. Ok, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Downloading en mass</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Railscast has a podcast on iTunes which lets you download all past episodes and thus this post is moot. But, I thought, what if it wasn't? What if I found a cool site with a bunch of media files I want to download? I knew wget can do this but it's been a while. So [...]]]></description>

		<title>iPhone Developer Activation Problem</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I went to renew my membership on my iPhone developer account and although the membership is $99/year, my expiration date was only extended out for 3 months. I opened a ticket and it took about a month or two to get this thing resolved. I had to send screenshots, steps and evidence that I was [...]]]></description>

		<title>Reversing sentences with Ruby.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A question came up today about how to reverse a sentence. Word by word, preserving periods etc. I've done stuff like this before but I really saw an opportunity to solve this contrived quiz type question with TDD. It's perfect really. Tedious string checking? Screw it. Let my test tell me when I'm done. Ok [...]]]></description>
