@Rarst JavaScript is my arch nemesis, so I’m going to beat or die trying in the process. … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/406899664458645504

@Rarst A combination of all three! … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/406899405573603329

I’m attempting to myself JavaScript by mangling a non-jQuery script into becoming jQuery’ified. So far so good … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/406898197425319936

@paul_wp Cool! I’m hoping WordCamp Arvika (nearish Oslo) will happening some time too cc/ @NiklasHogefjord … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/406846058648862720

@paul_wp Have you considered going at the end of January for WordCamp Norway? http://t.co/NqSNXXYgBl I’m intending to head back for it. … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/406842053788966913

@no_fear_inc @joe_hoyle @Rarst @paul_wp Oslo in February is cold and snowy, but it never gets insanely cold. @Rarst ‘s advice is good. … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/406822898163142656

@simonwheatley @sabreuse But I do like the concept. It makes sense to be able to download almost an exact replica of an existing setup. … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/405854512449339392

@simonwheatley @sabreuse I feel it is somewhat less useful when your local machine is almost an exact replica of the live environment. … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/405854316566966272

Well that’s a relief. Looks like I finally have a “properly” functioning Vagrant setup running, courtesy of VVV … https://t.co/96YvWcAEae … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/405842662852673536

@joshbetz Hmmm, on advice of @thott I tried VVV instead of VIP Quickstart and it worked immediately. … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/405838155389337600

This feels oddly familiar … http://t.co/1Q9l4KZQYM … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/405827346563088384

@joshbetz Thanks! I’m going to tackle a few debugging ideas I’ve had sent my way and if they fail, I’ll get in touch via Skype … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/405826360654188545

@sabreuse I’m going to have a crack at the VVV setup in case that doesn’t suffer this issue … https://t.co/96YvWcAEae … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/405794835271270401

@sabreuse I got it working in OSX, but had to restart PHP/MySQL as they keep shutting down and get slower and slower till the server croaks … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/405791471078760449

@sabreuse You are now mentioned in the post … http://t.co/s1rpczoWOJ … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/405789964841275392

@sabreuse I had just got the hang of setting up my own local LEMP environment running, now they throw Vagrant at me and am confused again … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/405789482630520832

@sabreuse Ahhhh! I killed the VM in Virtualbox, but I had to do a Vagrant destroy to free up the port. YOU RULE! … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/405789220650094592

@sabreuse Thanks for your input. I had totally run out of ideas until now … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/405788780562747392

@sabreuse I assumed if the VM wasn’t running, that it wouldn’t block that port. I’ll look into it and see if I’m missing something there. … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/405788723813814272

@sabreuse I did have the port changed for that reason. Then I turned off the local stuff and tried the port Quickstart asked for. … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/405788575373221889

@sabreuse Ummm, interesting question. I must have though as I’ve been using Github which requires your public key to be logged. … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/405788337539383296

@DavidWells I used it for stashing test code earlier tonight. I used to create lots of branches instead. … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/404035532868825088

@jess_green FYI, I was most definitely NOT a professional WordPress developer at that point. … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/402595531144585217

@jess_green I did it once upon a time. Some dick announced it on his blog First I knew of it was when @jeffr0 sent me a link to the post. … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/402595413867638784

@lukerollans In that case, don’t use plugins made by those whose teeth have fallen out! … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/402584218817290240

@curtismchale @fictionedge @jesterstear Most of my “Photoshop” work is just clipping images out. The GIMP is fine for that simplicity. … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/402529858028572672

@TCBarrett It’s a 13″ MacBook Air I got about 18 months ago. … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/402529503240794112

@fictionedge @jesterstear @curtismchale Latest version of GIMP is 10x improvement over old, so is fine for most of what I do thankfully. … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/402513128124329985

@fictionedge @jesterstear @curtismchale Photoshop is indeed an annoying shortcoming on Linux. Thankfully I rarely need it. … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/402512768613744640

@DeFries @bjornjohansen Are you running 12.04LTS with PHP5.4? I had a devil of a job making it upgrade without shit breaking, so I gave up. … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/402133022868512768

@jaredatch My experiences with Linux have been comparable to OSX, with sporadic reboots required. … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/402126315513716736

@jaredatch In my experience, OSX requires a lot more frequent rebooting than Windows. I could go many months between reboots on Windows XP. … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/402126171707834370

@ryancduff @no_fear_inc Admittedly, I haven’t given anything else a good try though. … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/402099501756055554

@ryancduff @no_fear_inc The only issues I’ve had with Ubuntu are poor power management on MacBook’s and a lack of support for newer software … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/402099373565542401

@markoheijnen @bjornjohansen The LTS also only supports the REALLY OLD version of The GIMP, which is utter crap. … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/402086381075566592

@markoheijnen @bjornjohansen Current LTS version is 5.3 I believe. Still old though. They should update that IMO. … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/402086244521619456

@bjornjohansen I broke multiple local installs trying to make PHP5.5 work. Not sure why, but it always got fried during the upgrade … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/402086129849364480

@bjornjohansen But I’ve decided not to upgrade my website until the next LTS comes out. Should be about six months away I think. … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/402085889117278208

@bjornjohansen If I was setting up a new box right now, I’d probably go with non-LTS just to get the correct repos. … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/402085759353896960

@bjornjohansen I figure if I need a PPA, then a jump to non-LTS isn’t a big step. However, this is for my MacBook Air, not my website. … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/402085614365179905

@porreirinha @no_fear_inc 12.04 has advantage of being an LTS, so you won’t need to upgrade for a long time. 13.10 only lasts 9 months … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/402036168810053632

@no_fear_inc Something was stopping it installing in my Ubuntu 12.04 install, hence I upgraded my whole system. … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/402035780216160256

@no_fear_inc Have you tried the VIP Quickstart Vagrant thingy? … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/402035644077469697

@no_fear_inc Lucky I realised it’s PHP5.5, as my next task was to install APC (which is redundant in PHP5.5). … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/402035502398078976

@porreirinha @no_fear_inc My server is local, so 13.10 is fine. May not be best option for live server though. … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/402035285510586368

@bjornjohansen I just found that Ubuntu 13.10 installs PHP5.5 by default. No more dicking around with PPA’s … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/402035060708487169

@no_fear_inc Ahhhh, and I just discovered that 13.10 loads PHP5.5 by default I killed my install last time I tried to put 5.5 on 12.04. … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/402034478862041088

@no_fear_inc Ubuntu 12.04 is what I tried with previously. … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/402033840262500353

@no_fear_inc I’m using Ubuntu 13.10 this time around. … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/402033538012549120

@no_fear_inc Is that because only morons use Ubuntu or because Ubuntu is hard to setup a LEMP stack on? … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/402033215504150528

Every time I try to setup a LEMP stack I feel like a moron. But every time I do it, I feel like I learned 10x more than the last time. … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/402029452324249600

Oops, that was meant to be “echo short tags”. Thanks to @rarst for the clarification. In other news, don’t use those things. They’re stupid. … http://twitter.com/ryanhellyer/status/400220367093899264
