The following little list is geared toward those who are new to double entry accounting, like I was. I found each of the following surprising and counter-intuitive, and learning them was hard work…
Ever since I upgraded IntelliJ IDEA to a recent version–probably one of {2018.3, 2018.3.5, 2019.1}–my ssh agent has been prompting me for access to git every few minutes whenever I have a project open. Very annoying!

Are you getting a Cucumber “Annotations differs on glue classes found” error on two different integration tests, even though they don’t share any feature definition code (Given/When/Then)? You might try putting your two integration test classes in separate packages. That worked for me.
Today I was fixin’ to try out korganizer on my Kubuntu 16.10 system, but when I ran it it made noises about the akonadi service not being started. When I ran akonadictl start I got this ugliness… Continue reading
When I tried to run ember test –server on my Linux machine I got the following:
$ ember test --server
