I’ve written a guest post titled Improve your YSlow grade using htaccess over at the David Walsh Blog.
In it, I explain a bit about how browser caching works, how setting headers can affect caching and what you can use in your .htaccess file (or Apache httpd.conf) to maximize it.
A year ago, my good friend Casey Watson suggested that I try using a personal wiki to keep track of my programming knowledge. This turned out to be great advice, so I’ll be sharing how I use one and how to start your own.
In a phrase: to keep a your web of knowledge accessible from one place. You need a place to put your meeting agenda, important project/server links, and even a to-do or waiting-for list. Not only can you store a lot, you can tag it, search it and otherwise customize the crap out of Tiddlywiki.

When it comes to productivity I can’t think of any application that has saved more time and frustration than Vim. Vim is the ultimate productivity tool for programmers. Most users of Vim that I know that have spent the time to learn it absolutely love it and couldn’t imagine a world without it. My only regret with Vim is not learning it sooner.
