Vagrant Setup

This tutorial guides you through creating your first Vagrant project.

We start with a generic Ubuntu VM, and use the Chef provisioning tool to:

install packages for vim, git
create user accounts, as specified in included JSON config files
install specified user dotfiles (.bashrc, .vimrc, etc) from a git repository

Afterwards, we'll see how easy it is to package our newly provisioned VM

Removal of McAfee from OSX

Note: This was written in 2015, it may be out of date now.

There are a lot of commands here which I use sudo if you don't know what you're doing with sudo, especially where I rm you can severely screw up your system.

There are many reasons which you would want to remove a piece of software such as McAfee, such as not wanting it to hammer your CPU during work hours which seems like primetime for a virus scan.

I intend this to be a living document, I have included suggestions from peoples' replies.

Previous versions used homebrew to install the various versions. As suggested in the comments, it's better to use pyenv instead. If you are looking for the previous version of this document, see the revision history.

$ brew update
$ brew install pyenv
$ pyenv install 3.5.0
$ pyenv install 3.4.3
$ pyenv install 3.3.6
$ pyenv install 3.2.6
$ pyenv install 2.7.10

$ pyenv install 2.6.9

Build a scalable Twitter clone with Django and GetStream.io

In this tutorial we are going to build a Twitter clone using Django and GetStream.io, a hosted API for newsfeed development.

We will show you how easy is to power your newsfeeds with GetStream.io. For brevity we leave out some basic Django-specific code and recommend you refer you to the Github project for the complete runnable source code. At the end of this tutorial we will have a Django app with a profile feed, a timeline feed, support for following users, hashtags and mentions.

I assume that you are familiar with Django. If you're new to Django the [official tutorial] (https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.0/intro/) explains it very well.

	To use the two-layer cache:

	* Run memcached on each Django webserver
	* Add "LOCAL_CACHE_ADDR = ('127.0.0.1:11211',)" to settings.py
	* Replace "from django.core.cache import cache" with "from dualcache import cache" everywhere
	you want to use the two-layer cache. It can be freely mix and matched with Django's default caching.

	class A(models.Model):
	things = models.ManyToManyField("B", through=ThroughModel)

	class B(models.Model):
	text = models.TextField()

	class ThroughModel(models.Model):
	a = models.ForeignKey(A)
	b = models.ForeignKey(B)
	extra = models.BooleanField()
