A Nibble of Geohashes in Go – by Kurt – Get Code
A Nibble of Geohashes in Go - by Kurt - Get Code –This is a really cool algorithm that i never heard of. Also geohashes are not too hard to compute and have very useful and unteresting properties. the concept of a z-order curve is explained. That too is a useful model and concept. The author says: “Latitude and longitude as a locality-preserving string.”

huginn/huginn: Create agents that monitor and act on your behalf.
Link: huginn/huginn: Create agents that monitor and act on your behalf.: "Interesting package although I don't have a use for it yet. It's your own IFTTT built for geeks that you run on your ownn server. It's got no UI to speak of. On the other hand, it has a sophisticated way to create logic around events and is extensible and open source."

My only confusion is that there are a bunch of similar tools to do the same thing. Each has its own DSL, written in ruby or some other language, has its own conceptual steucture, and its own bugs. It’s enough to make me decide to just keep doing it by hand. Heres what the author says: “ Prepper is a simple server provisioning tool, built on top of SSHKit.
