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 Pinboard, and visit the bookmarks archive for curated lists across the last few years.

Web excursions brought to you in partnership with CleanMyMac X, all the tools to speed up your Mac, in one app.

Sublime Text 3
So Sublime 3 is finally official. I’ve been using it in beta for long enough that this isn’t a huge deal, but despite Atom having a larger developer community, I’ve stuck with Sublime primarily because it’s stable, it has every package I need, and it’s not an Electron app.
gerardroche/sublime-monokai-free
A really nice version of Monokai for Sublime Text 3. I found a link in the description to ColorSchemeUnit which looks like a great unit testing tool for those publishing Sublime themes.
0k/shyaml: YAML for command line
Probably because of my Jekyll usage and Ruby in general, I’ve taken to creating most configuration files in YAML instead of JSON. Parsing it from a bash script has always been a pain, though…
Dieselgeek
This will only be of interest to VW and Audi owners who happen to enjoy saving a ton of money by getting their hands dirty. But seriously, with cheap replacement parts and detailed tutorial videos, I’ve already saved over $1000 over taking my aging TT to a mechanic. (And that’s not even including the money that Harold Kachelmyer helped me save on a clutch replacement…)
