    • !coderponies GNU Stow has proved to be an amazing program! I have installed several packages from source now, and they can all be easily uninstalled with a single command.

    • !coderponies # UNIX tip: To search man pages by name and description, use "man -k keyword" or "apropos keyword", which function exactly the same. To see all of the man pages in a certain man section, try "man -s sectionname -k '.*'" . This works because man -k and apropos take a regular expression as the keyword, and .* makes it match everything.

    • !coderponies GNU Stow 2.1.3 released. I haven't used this project yet, but it seems like it would solve a lot of problems with installing packages from source in UNIX-like systems. It manages symlinks in a common directory which point to files from packages that are really separately installed: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/info-stow/2012-01/msg00000.html

              • CC-licensed, venerable MIT textbook for programming in Scheme. It is an excellent introduction for beginners. As one who hasn't had formal programming education, this also opened my eyes to the benefits of recursion and variable mutation in functional languages. http://mitpress.mit.edu/sicp/
