I live and breath Mac OS X on a daily basis, with a large portion of my work revolving around the command line using mostly tools which I’ve installed with brew. Bash completion has likely saved me days worth of time over the past decade or so.

A common problem encountered with web development where private or local development sites with no public DNS sites are being used is the one of viewing these locally running development sites on an iPhone or iPad for testing purposes.

By now the overhaul of the indexer system used in Magento Enterprise Edition 1.13 is fairly common knowledge, especially amongst those that have the privilege to work with it on some large builds.

This project has over 40 million product pages and 5 million parts in inventory!
