My development setup

,----[ Quote ]
| Base software
| 
|     * Arch Linux â itâs my 6 day with this distro 
|     actually, Iâm a Gentoo fanatic but from time to 
|     time I try to use something different. I usually 
|     go back to Gentoo after a month or so. Weâll see 
|     how Iâll end up now. So far I really like Arch, 
|     itâs extremely lightweight, fast and stable. 
|     Software availability is as good as in Gentoo. 
|     Itâs also easy to make your own packages which 
|     is crucial for Ruby developers since it happens 
|     that we need various non-standard stuff, like 
|     letâs say Nginx with Passenger support. Iâve got 
|     a feeling that this time I wonât go back to 
|     Gentoo
| 
|     * KDE â itâs my desktop environment and one 
|     of the most important reasons why Iâve 
|     switched back from OSX to Linux. 
| 
| [...]
| 
| Dev tools:
| 
|     * GIT - probably the best SCM in the world
|     * QGit4 â sometimes I use this git gui to 
|     view history of a project
|     * ZSH with a pimped prompt for GIT
|     * Nginx with Passanger â better then 
|     script/server
|     * VirtualBox â I have 3 Windows virtual 
|     machines each with different version of 
|     Internet Explorer, only for testing of course

Hidden Linux : Learning to love KDE 4 (part II)

,----[ Quote ]
| The main difference between KDE 3 and KDE 4
| is that the former is fixed and static
| while the latter is dynamic and
| interactive. For a trivial example of that
| go to System Settings / Desktop / All
| Effects and activate Snow. Now hitting the
| Meta+Ctrl+F12 keys (or Win+Ctrl+F12) will
| fill your desktop with falling snowflakes.
|
| [...]
|
| In short, Plasma and KDE 4 allow you to
| build your own interactive desktop. If that
| seems a little daunting, check out what
| others have done ...
