Officejet J5780 All-in-One Mac OS X w Intel
Saturday, July 19, 2008
I couldn’t find this driver on HP’s site directly so I’m posting this here as a reminder to myself. The install HP links to directly seems to stall out. I’ll update this and let everyone know how well this actually works.
Update:
Scanning works like a champ on an Intel Mac.
Installs a bunch of useless junk in addition to drivers.
Vim Tabbing
Thursday, April 10, 2008
In my day to day workflow I normally come in to contact with html / code that was initially created through some gui software client Dreamweaver, etc. It’s a real headache dealing with the differences of depth when dealing with indentations. I’m finding the following settings, in VIM, pretty helpful
set expandtab " use spaces in place of tabs.
set tabstop=8 " number of spaces for a tab.
set softtabstop=4 " number of spaces for a tab in editing operations.
set shiftwidth=4 " number of spaces for indent (>>, <<, ...)

Oracle
Sunday, March 30, 2008
I’ve been trying to pick-up a little oracle db experience. In Oracle sqlplus, if you type ed or edit at the command prompt, sqlplus will put the last command into an editor buffer for easy editing. Here’s a quick tip for you; the default editor in Oracle sqlplus can be changed to vim pretty quickly.
Here’s what you do:
1. Create the file login.sql, with any editor, in your home directory
2. Add the line “DEFINE _EDITOR=vim” to the file login.sql
From now on typing the command “ed” in to Oracle sqlplus will open the buffer with vim.
Backup data using Amazon’s S3 on the Mac
Monday, February 11, 2008
There are other solutions to backups not involving Amazon’s S3. If you insist on using S3, this seems like the easiest solution, the comments hold particular value; suggested usage includes rdiffs and swapping out launchd for Automator and ical.
