OBSOLETE

This entire guide is based on an old version of Homebrew/Node and no longer applies. It was only ever intended to fix a specific error message which has since been fixed. I've kept it here for historical purposes, but it should no longer be used. Homebrew maintainers have fixed things and the options mentioned don't exist and won't work.

I still believe it is better to manually install npm separately since having a generic package manager maintain another package manager is a bad idea, but the instructions below don't explain how to do that.

Fixing npm On Mac OS X for Homebrew Users

Installing node through Homebrew can cause problems with npm for globally installed packages. To fix it quickly, use the solution below. An explanation is also included at the end of this document.

# To use it, ensure your ~/.i3status.conf contains this line:

It's not immediately obvious how to pull down the code for a PR and test it locally. But it's pretty easy. (This assumes you have a remote for the main repo named upstream.)

Getting the PR code

1. Make note of the PR number. For example, Rod's latest is PR #37: Psiphon-Labs/psiphon-tunnel-core#37

2. Fetch the PR's pseudo-branch (or bookmark or rev pointer whatever the word is), and give it a local branch name. Here we'll name it pr37:

$ git fetch upstream pull/37/head:pr37

Macbook Pro 11,3 - Linux gmux

The Macbook Pro 11,3 (late 2013, Retina) is equipped with two GPUs:

• discrete: NVidia GPU: GeForce GT 750 M
• integrated: Intel Iris Pro

Currently under Linux the Intel GPU can only be used with the help of:

• gfxCardStatus v2.2.1
• faking the os identification:

This guide assumes that you recently run brew upgrade postgresql and discovered to your dismay that you accidentally bumped from one major version to another: say 9.3.x to 9.4.x. Yes, that is a major version bump in PG land.

First let's check something.

brew info postgresql

The top of what gets printed as a result is the most important:

• zf/string creates a fold from the cursor to string .
• zj moves the cursor to the next fold.
• zk moves the cursor to the previous fold.
• zo opens a fold at the cursor.
• zO opens all folds at the cursor.
• zm increases the foldlevel by one.
• zM closes all open folds.
