Nginx userdir list
5 Comments

Posted by Drakonen on February 29, 2008 in Programming, Tech | Short Link

Our Nginx server was without a proper ~user listing. While this is default in most apache configs, its not in Nginx. My friend Dominiek made a hack with a ruby script. This would have worked fine if had some more work but memory usage was pretty bad (especially for big files). So, I started on [...]

Vim has a pretty nice (although not that smart) completion command, Ctrl+n. Lately I’ve been getting this error: E432: Tags file not sorted This error is pretty annoying as it interrupts your work with an error. Googeling for this gave me no solution. Then I searched for files named tags (which are a lot), and [...]

As I keep working on school projects getting my points. As I’m getting more and more familiar with ReST, I like it more and more! But I’m also becoming more and more aware of its limitations.

ReST experience

I’ve been playing with Restructured Text for a bit, and it was a very pleasant experience, unlike latex. ReST has a nice readable source, and the source file itself is very suited for distribution. When needed you can convert it to HTML and latex. ReST is very suited for HTML, and as it is one [...]

I got an unlimited gprs/umts plan for my P900 a while ago, so I wont be needing a windows pc anymore to connect to the internet. What would be nice though is connecting from my laptop to the internet using my P900. I found this site which seems to do the trick pretty well. More [...]

A good programming language does not need a lot of books to explain the language.

Registering in is sooo web 1.0

I’m really fond of anonymous or non-registered web sites. If you can please do it, and devise some smart way to not make people to have to register. Registering on yet an other site is annoying and most of the time its totally useless. I don’t want to register just to read your site. This [...]
