“Fighting is better than this waiting. You don’t feel so helpless when you fight. You have a sword and a horse, sometimes an axe. When you’re armored it’s hard for anyone to hurt you.”

Plumbum - Pythonic, cross-platform shell syntax

thechangelog:

Plumbum is an interesting project from Tomer Filiba that aims to bring shell syntax to Python scripts:

The motto of the library is “Never write shell scripts again”, and thus it attempts to mimic the shell syntax (shell combinators) where it makes sense, while keeping it all pythonic and cross-platform.

A piping example:

>>> chain = ls["-a"] | grep["-v", "\\.py"] | wc["-l"]
>>> print chain
/bin/ls -a | /bin/grep -v '\.py' | /usr/bin/wc -l
>>> chain()
u'13\n'

In addition to piping, Plumbum supports redirection and even remote commands over SSH. Check out the source on GitHub, Tomer’s introductory blog post or the excellent project docs for more.

Add to queue on tumblr

Using Chrome or Greasemonkey for Firefox, set tumblr to “add to queue” instead of post now. Awesome!!

pathod

pathod, a pathological HTTP/S daemon useful for testing and torturing HTTP clients. At its core is a tiny, terse language for crafting HTTP responses. It also has a built-in web interface that lets you play with the response spec language, inspect logs, and access pathod’s full help document.

I love torturing http clients. 

Is this the death of net neutrality? Should carrier level ISP be a public utility separate from telco?

Broadband is still relatively cost-prohibitive, and New America Foundation’s Sascha Meinrath has a solution. Rather than having carriers provide all bandwidth for customers, the online market is heading towards a model where apps and data are based on free delivery concepts with pre-loaded bandwidth paid for by the advertiser. Describing the hypothetical and, he says, probably inevitable future of apps, Meinrath discusses the possibilities of content providers paying for select bandwidth in order to ensure large-scale access.
