When you work with a group of people on the same projects, the larger the group gets, the more difficult the task of keeping everybody informed. So why not do this automatically? Send an e-mail upon an SVN commit. Here’s how I do it.

Javascript callbacks and the “this” object.
I spent hours and hours googling for this and the word “this” being a very common word made it impossible to find the answer.
The question was; how do I use the “this” context-object in my own callback function. It turns out it’s very simple, but the trick is, of course, to know the answer to know it’s simple.

[Update november 27th; DiY FusionDrive confirmed!, see last page]

For a change, a regular blog post, not a how-to or a script to share, just some info on a “new” technology “invented” by Apple; Fusion Drive.
First of all; what is it?
Well, that’s a difficult question, since only Apple really knows and there probably isn’t a Mac outside of Apple HQ that runs on it. But based on the information presented by Apple and discussed by many techfora, like arstechnica and ubergizmo, already discussed Fusion Drive in depth and here’s the scuttlebutt;
1. Apple Fusion Drive combines a regular HDD with a fast SSD so files accessed often are available at high speeds, others are on the large capacity storage. All seamless and even so that certain files of one project can be on the SSD (the files you use) and others on the HDD (the documentation).
