It\u2019s an exciting time, and there\u2019s plenty more to come as companies continue to bring journalism and technology together. But while consumers are reaping the benefits of this content revolution, it seems like we\u2019ve left creators in the dust. That gorgeous longform template with infographics and parallax effects or that streamlined feed of latest news is a great experience for the user, but they can be a nightmare for those building them. Editors are often left to their own devices, forced to navigate clunky CMSes and connect the dots between form fields and what users will see. That\u2019s all starting to change.

# Shell functions for ssh-ing into and 
# Features automatic adding of the key file when it is specified in
# AWSSH_KEY. If no user is given in the hostname, it will use the value
# in AWSSH_DEFAULT_USER, or ec2-user if that is not set.
# Sets StrictHostKeyChecking off, so it doesn't ask you if you want to
# connect. Doesn't add the IP to known_hosts, though it will warn you

OS X's "Word of the Day" screensaver is a great way to passively learn words:

But I've always thought that its word list kind of stunk—it was full of obscure words that I could never really see myself using. I'd prefer something like Norman Schur's 1000 Most Important Words. What if you could plug your own word list into the screensaver?

On a rather obscure comment thread, someone explained where you might find the word list that Apple uses to power the screensaver. It is at /System/Library/Graphics/Quartz\ Composer\ Plug-Ins/WOTD.plugin/Contents/Resources/NOAD_wotd_list.txt. The file looks like this:
