Forked from: corbanb/gist:76d0658493e93830af48 which borrowed heavily from http://blog.shupp.org/2012/08/12/local-timezone-lookups-by-coordinates-with-postgis/ to make this geared towards mac users, which has been updated.

Step 1: Install Postgresql & Postgis + dependencies

$ psql -U <user> -d template_postgis  
$ template_postgis=> select postgis_lib_version(); should return installed version!  
$ template_postgis=> \d+tz_world

Hi, I'm Jon and I’m a freelance / contract Ruby / RoR developer based in Sydney;

I've been working with Ruby professionally for around 10 years, I consider myself a specialist in test driven development with Ruby, using Rails for customer facing sites (e.g. if it serves HTML). I'm one of the current maintainers of RSpec so as you can appreciate I'm a huge fan of using it for both unit and integration testing.

How can I help you? I have a lot of experience building prototype apps, polishing existing products, improving site performance, reviewing and improving code quality or improving test setups. Our work together could be a specific project or a time based contract. I typically work with the server side

15" Macbook Pro (Mid 2010)

I'm selling my Macbook Pro (Mid 2010), it has commited many many lines of code, it has written chunks of RSpec, it has fought the rubies and won. It has travelled 17000km to Australia and survived, but now it must be passed on to a worth successor.

The specs:

Display: 15" 1680x1050 display.
Processor: 2 core / 4 thread 2.66GHz Intel Core i7.
Memory: 8GB DDR3
Video card: PCIe 512MB NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M
