An earwig.
Just excellent.
Although SVN commands come in naturally, I’m finding that having a list of GIT commands nearby is always handy.
git status
See where you are, what’s outstanding.
git add .
Register current changes to the repository.
git commit
Commit outstanding changes to the repository.
git push
Push changes to the repository.
git pull
Pull changes from the repository.
Barred owl seen in Richmond Hill, Ontario.
This was the first time I’ve seen an owl in the wild. The bird was kind enough to allow being observed for good 20 minutes from a very close distance.
The hardest part of making the picture was catching it with the eyes wide open - in daylight they squint profusely.
Once in a while I run into an issue where I need to access a website local to the VPN I connect to.
When Parallels is running, I can access the internet, but the DNS for a named host local to the VPN can not be resolved.
Windows under Parallels is configured to use automatic DHCP.
The solution is to use two DNS servers: one that is obtained automatically and second coming from the VPN.
To determine the address for the DNS server that is already obtained run in Command Prompt:
ipconfig /all
This will produce the following output:
Notice that the output indicates we have auto-configuration enabled. The DNS server used in this case is 10.211.55.1.
The second DNS server will come from the VPN setting, this is an internal IP address: 192.168.3.1.
You will want to put the VPN DNS server first and the automatically obtained DNS server second. If your VPN connection is established, the first DNS server will take precedence. If not, the alternate DNS server will kick in.
Domain suffixes
If you do not want to keep adding your domain suffix in the URL, you can configure for it to be added automatically by going to “Advanced” options:
