Fallacies of Distributed Computing
jhm – Tue, 2007 – 03 – 20 09:41

This is something I have to do with on a daily basis. The list sounds silly, but is spot on:

  1. The network is reliable.
  2. Latency is zero.
  3. Bandwidth is infinite.
  4. The network is secure.
  5. Topology doesn't change.
  6. There is one administrator.
  7. Transport cost is zero.
  8. The network is homogeneous.

usually we are affected by all of them

scp resume
jhm – Mon, 2009 – 11 – 16 18:38

I have to say, this is a pretty ingenious way to accomplish resume for scp ...

rsync --partial --progress --rsh=ssh user@host:remote_file local_file

or put it into an alias
alias scpresume="rsync --partial --progress --rsh=ssh"

GrowlMail on Snow Leopard
jhm – Fri, 2009 – 09 – 04 10:19

Since upgrading to Snow Leopard I don't get the beloved GrowlMail popups anymore, because the GrowlMail application does not work under Snow Leopard, yet.

But, there are a thousand ways to skin a cat, as this cuddly proverb knows. Mail Rules and Applescript can compensate for the lack of GrowlMail.
