Leverage Twitter's Distraction Value to Stay Focused
Twitter by nature is a stream of distractions. I personally never keep Twitter open and visible while I'm working because I know I'll be too easily derailed from whatever I'm doing. If Life Hacker reported that a single email arriving in your inbox can cost you over a minute of mental recovery time, Twitter's rapid-fire updates could prove to be literally stupefying.

uTidyLib Fix
uTidyLib is a Python wrapper for the HTML Tidy Library. It's a pretty handy library and is dead simple to use, but unfortunately it does not compile on Leopard out of the box. I wrote a quick patch to fix it, and will maintain a vendor branch on the Hartzog Creative Code Server since development seems to have been abandoned years ago.

TextMate reStructuredText Bundle
TextMate is great for general editing of most text formats. By default, reStructuredText is not one of them. This document describes how to fix TextMate so that it is a better fit for the tools I work with. We want reStructuredText rendered previews and HTML export functions in TextMate.
