What is an isomorphic application? | Lullabot

Mon, 07/06/2015 - 21:31 -- rprice

I have fallen in love with this kind of architecture. In the past, we would use AJAX and a bit of server-side code to make certain interactions with the page dynamic, but this always involved duplicating logic across both PHP and JavaScript. The most common example of this is a pager, where a direct request to ?page=2 is processed differently than a click on a pager link that takes you to page 2.

Cache Warmer | Drupal.org

Thu, 06/25/2015 - 07:20 -- rprice

cache_warmer is a drush command that hits a set of URIs of a drupal site based on the freshness of the content. The main purpose is to offer a complete setup for running a mostly cached drupal site without having to deal with expiration logic and instead use microcaching. Dealing with the expiration logic is messy and inefficient it requires additional work, be it from the drupal side of things, be it from the external cache side. Microcaching can be used with any type of site. Be it your portfolio or personal blog or a high traffic news site.

ImageOptim — better Save For Web

Tue, 06/02/2015 - 09:28 -- rprice

mageOptim is a free app that makes images take up less disk space and load faster, without sacrificing quality. It optimizes compression parameters, removes junk metadata and unnecessary color profiles. ImageOptim seamlessly integrates the best optimization tools: PNGOUT, Zopfli, Pngcrush, AdvPNG, extended OptiPNG, JpegOptim, jpegrescan, jpegtran, and Gifsicle. It's excellent for publishing images on the Web (easily shrinks images “Saved for Web” in Photoshop) and also useful for making Mac and iPhone/iPad applications smaller (if you configure Xcode).

drupal Repository | Docker Hub Registry - Repositories of Docker Images

Thu, 05/07/2015 - 10:26 -- rprice

Official Drupal Repo for Docker Docker is an open platform for developers and sysadmins to build, ship, and run distributed applications. Consisting of Docker Engine, a portable, lightweight runtime and packaging tool, and Docker Hub, a cloud service for sharing applications and automating workflows, Docker enables apps to be quickly assembled from components and eliminates the friction between development, QA, and production environments. As a result, IT can ship faster and run the same app, unchanged, on laptops, data center VMs, and any cloud.

Interview with Joshua Lee, IBIS | Opensource.com

Thu, 05/07/2015 - 05:53 -- rprice

To give a quick background of how IBIS works, the system grabs articles from different sources, which are either trusted or need human verification. These articles, once verified by a human or being from a trusted resource, can then be brought into the IBIS network for distribution to IBIS members. The human intervention on this system is kept low to allow for information to be reported quickly to biosecurity experts for decision making.
