Web Excursions are select bookmarks from my travels around the interwebs, because I'm always thinking about you while discovering other people's cool stuff. You mean that much to me. You can see all of my (public) bookmarks on my LinkDing, and visit the bookmarks archive for curated lists across the last few years.

Web excursions brought to you in partnership with Setapp. Get access to hundreds of Mac and iOS apps for one low monthly subscription fee.

Why pipes sometimes get “stuck”: buffering
Very useful info for command line scripters and *nix users. Ever have a piped command unexpectedly show nothing when you’re sure there’s data in the pipe? Here’s your answer. Hat tip to Patrice.
BetterZip 5
An awesome tool for creating and managing archives (zip, dmg, tgz and more). My favorite part about it is that it offers a navigable Quick Look preview of zip archives. That alone isn’t worth the $25 price, of course, but it’s on Setapp, too.
