weekly Weekly Recap 1901 A (weekly) compilation of things that I stumbled across and found interesting.
Ulysses and Ghost The new Ulysses feature really adds so much value to my “ideal blogging setup” that I hope to actually start writing more again. A few years ago, I got started with editing in Markdown or a flavour thereof. Once you go there, it’s hard getting back to anything else.

coding Tilerator More than 6 years ago I wrote a small tool in Flash to solve a problem with Cocos2D sprites. For this framework, the tile maps had to have a little gap every so and so many pixels with the content continuing after the gap. So if you created a tile
Duct-Taped Search and Sync with ElasticSearch, MariaDB and beanstalkd I recently started working on a new project (based on a LEMP [Linux, nginx, MySQL, PHP] stack), which has “Search” as one key feature. Search as in “Search over user generated input for text and / or location, with an arbitrary set of filters applied”. And here is how I chose

And it plays well with nginx, my favourite alternative to the Apache webserver.
