Python script to connect to Tor via Stem and Privoxy, requesting a new connection (hence a new IP as well) as desired.

Crawling Anonymously with Tor in Python

adapted from the article "Crawling anonymously with Tor in Python" by S. Acharya, Nov 2, 2013.

The most common use-case is to be able to hide one's identity using TOR or being able to change identities programmatically, for example when you are crawling a website like Google and you don’t want to be rate-limited or blocked via IP address.

Tor

Install Tor.

Testable JavaScript Resources

Testing JavaScript isn't just a thing you can read about in children's fairy tales.

This is just a scratch pad of everything I find. As the really good resources start to float to the top, I'll transition them to a more permanent GitHub repo.

Angular vs Backbone vs React vs Ember notes

Note: these are pretty rough notes I made for my team on the fly as I was reading through some pages. Some could be mildly inaccurate but hopefully not terribly so. I might resort to convenient fiction & simplification sometimes.

My top contenders, mostly based on popularity / community etc:

  • Angular
  • Backbone
  • React
  • Ember

Mostly about MVC (or derivatives, MVP / MVVM).

How to publish Python apps for human beings

How to publish Python apps for human beings

So, you've created a Python app (be it a graphical user interface with Qt or the like, or a simple command line interface). Great! But how are others going to use it? Python applications often have dependencies (e.g. from third-party modules), and they also need a Python interpreter to run them. For a developer, installing all the necessary bits and bobs to make things work is okay, but that's unacceptable for a normal user - they just want to download the thing and run it.

Below are simple instructions to publish your app on the three main operating systems: Windows, macOS and Linux.
