A Small Utility to Help With Extracting Code Snippets
It’s been a while since I’ve written anything here. Part of the reason has been due to the writing I’ve done over on the blog at The Last Pickle. In the lsat few years, I’ve written about our tlp-stress tool, tips for new Cassandra clusters, and a variety of performance posts related to Compaction, Compression, and GC Tuning.
The other reason is the eight blog posts I’ve got in the draft folder. One of the reasons why there are so many is the way I write. If the post is programming related, I usually start with the post, then start coding, pull snippets out, learn more, rework the post, then rework snippets. It’s an annoying, manual process. The posts sitting in my draft folder have incomplete code, and reworking the code is a tedious process that I get annoyed with, leading to abandoned posts.
