homebrew, git

IN PROGRESS - Steps to contribute a cask to homebrew. Also a good way to stay in touch with git use if you don't have it at work.

 https://github.com/caskroom/homebrew-cask/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#getting-set-up-to-contribute

 1: Fork the repository in GitHub with the Fork button.

 create or login into your github account

 use the Fork button at
https://github.com/caskroom/homebrew-cask

 A fork is a copy of a repository. Forking a repository allows you to freely experiment with changes without affecting the original project. Most commonly, forks are used to either propose changes to someone else's project or to use someone else's project as a starting point for your own idea.

 Now get a 'remote' local copy of the fork

 you must have git installed
comes pre-installed on later osx versions
can switch to most current with homebrew - $brew install git

 

$ github_user='<my-github-username>'
$ cd "$(brew --repository)"/Library/Taps/caskroom/homebrew-cask
$ git remote add "${github_user}" "https://github.com/${github_user}/homebrew-cask"
Now update your remote to master - 'pull' most current for master branch
https://help.github.com/articles/merging-an-upstream-repository-into-your-fork/
git checkout master

 
  1. git pull https://github.com/ORIGINAL_OWNER/ORIGINAL_REPOSITORY.git BRANCH_NAME
  2. =
  1. git pull https://github.com/christopinka/homebrew-cask.git master
deal with conflicts

Push the merge to your GitHub repository.
git push origin master

JSON stores and Aggregation for system logs and audit trail. Stop logging with format strings!

This first article explains why you might want to store logs and BI data in a machine readable format. https://journal.paul.querna.org/articles/2011/12/26/log-for-machines-in-json/ The second two get at how you might do that and be able to transition/re-purpose your existing relational stores into a cloud based scalable framework.  http://docs.mongodb.org/ecosystem/tutorial/use-aggregation-framework-with-java-driver/ http://www.bityota.com/3-steps-to-analytics-on-mongodb/ Logging might present a relatively low profile target for schema-less implementation and give you a chance to expose your organization to an important technology for modern web development. With your foot in the door you might convince them to add usage auditing and before you know it you are doing up front analysis on usage in front of your next project.

Velocity and Burn Rate Budget

This is a great summary of where to get to in how you budget projects. http://www.agileadvice.com/2011/02/04/agilemanagement/calculating-a-budget-for-an-agile-project-in-six-easy-steps/ Most importantly, Using the definition of “done” add pre- and post- Iteration budgets Every agile team is supposed to be “ cross-functional ” but in reality, there are limits to this.  For example, in most software project environments, teams do not include full-time lawyers.  This limited cross-functionality determines what the team is capable of delivering in each cycle – anything outside the team’s expertise is usually done as either pre-work or after the iterations (cycles) are finished.  Sometimes, this work can be done concurrently with the team.  In order to understand this work, it is often valuable to draw an organization-wide  value stream map  for project delivery.  This map will show you the proportion of time spent for each type of work in the proje...
