How to uninstall Kite (a popular plugin which sits around eating your RAM & does just barely enough to justify its existence)
TL:DR

Run: ~/.local/share/kite/uninstall

To completely remove Kite from your system, there are a number of steps to follow
  • Uninstall all editor plugins - uninstall the editor plugins Kite has installed, instructions here: https://help.kite.com/article/62-managing-editor-plugins
  • Quit Kite - You can do so from the menu bar icon. If you don't have the menu bar icon shown, you can manually close all the Kite processes.

Boost VMWare Performance by disabling vmem files.

Prevent creation of vmmem files in VMware (Windows)

Issue

VMWare creates .vmem files to back the guest RAM. On the host this causes disk thrashing especially during powering on and off the guest.

Solution

Add the following lines to the .vmx file to prevent creation of .vmem files. This will reduce disk IO and VM performance will improve especially on non-SSD disks.

Sample Nginx config with sane caching settings for modern web development
# Sample Nginx config with sane caching settings for modern web development
#
# Motivation:
# Modern web development often happens with developer tools open, e. g. the Chrome Dev Tools.
# These tools automatically deactivate all sorts of caching for you, so you always have a fresh
# and juicy version of your assets available.
# At some point, however, you want to show your work to testers, your boss or your client.
# After you implemented and deployed their feedback, they reload the testing page – and report
# the exact same issues as before! What happened? Of course, they did not have developer tools
# open, and of course, they did not empty their caches before navigating to your site.

The best explanation of Python decorators I’ve ever seen. (An archived answer from StackOverflow.)

NOTE: This is a question I found on StackOverflow which I’ve archived here, because the answer is so effing phenomenal.


Q: How can I make a chain of function decorators in Python?


If you are not into long explanations, see [Paolo Bergantino’s answer][2].
