WordPreSt reStructuredText Plugin For WordPress
WordPreSt adds a reStructuredText input mode to the WordPress post/page editor. Once installed, reStructuredText may be input directly into the editor and converted to HTML with the click of a mouse. The reSt source is saved with each post/page for future edits. The rendered HTML output is stored as the actual post content to allow modification after rendering if desired. Plugin settings control the features of the reSt convertor and include automatic table of contents links, post title generation from reSt, header level customization, and others. A “View document source” link is also (optionally) available for each post.
WordPreSt requires no template modifications and every effort has been made to ensure a truly seamless integration into WordPress.

Mimicking Python Descriptors in PHP
So you’ve been working in Python for a year and then along comes a PHP gig that you just can’t pass up. All of a sudden you’re realizing just how much you miss some of the familiar Pythonisms you’ve come to rely on. One such feature that is lacking in PHP is the concept of descriptors. Fortunately, it’s possible to pretty closely simulate their behaviour in PHP with just a few special interfaces and classes.

Leverage Twitter’s Distraction Value to Stay Focused
Twitter by nature is a stream of distractions. I personally never keep Twitter open and visible while I’m working because I know I’ll be too easily derailed from whatever I’m doing. If Life Hacker reported that a single email arriving in your inbox can cost you over a minute of mental recovery time, Twitter’s rapid-fire updates could prove to be literally stupefying.
