What's installed on my ec2

What's installed on my ec2?

I swear between debian/ubuntu/mac os x/irix (well not anymore), I can never remember how to list installed packages on my ec2. 

Here is is:

   sudo yum list installed

Plus or minus sudo depending on who you are. For once, the command is what i'd expect.

2 ways to get SQLite to put dates into columns

2 ways to get SQLite to put dates into a column.
insert into mytable values( null, datetime('now') );insert into mytable values( null, strftime('%s', 'now'));The first one inserts a row somewhat like this:
1|2009-03-10 18:47:46

The second inserts an unix timestamp:
2|1236711411

It might be best to use that unix timestamp with an integer column type for dates since SQLite doesn't support a datetime one.

It makes comparisons and ordering much easier:
select * from dt where lu > strftime('%s', '2009-03-10');

Output of:
id|lu
6|1236643200
2|1236711411
3|1236711516
4|1236711518
5|1236711519But the formatting is pretty ugly. :-/

Hey what about formatting it within the select with the SQLite datetime function:
select id, datetime(lu, 'unixepoch') lu from dt order by lu;
id|lu
6|2009-03-10 00:00:00
2|2009-03-10 18:56:51
3|2009-03-10 18:58:36
4|2009-03-10 18:58:38
5|2009-03-10 18:58:39
Better but having to add that to each select is kind of a pain. I like adding…

BootstrapX clickover

Birth
The last few weeks, i've been pushing Bootstrap in various directions. Most of the time, its being hacking around Popovers. Our current design uses Popovers with forms. It provides a very nice balance between in page action and more subtle interruption to viewing the page than a modal.

Over the last few weeks, I've found a few quirks with using Popover's trigger action of 'focus'. This works fine with forms but on Chrome and Safari 'focus' events are supported incompletely. In addition to that varied support we have a few other needs that inspired a new Bootstrap extension. BootstrapX - Clickover.

Our requirements are:
Click button/link/icon to toggle display of popover contentOption to click 'away' from popover to closeAbility to have 'popover' autoclose after some amount of timeOption to have element inside of popover hide it
I suspect, in the future, it will need to only auto close when user's mouse leaves the clickover.

Bootstrap (by Twitter) loading in page content for Popovers

Bootstrap is a nice get started HTML/CSS/JS interface toolkit. At $work our newest design has been based on it and many of its components.

One of the challenges I've run into with the Popover element is generating in attribute content for complex elements.

The basic context is:
<a id="mypopover" href="#" data-content="stuff to display"> Label </a>
The popover gets the body from the data-content attribute. The other option that doesn't appear to be documented is using a function set in the options.

$('#mypopover').popover({ // other options here content: function(ele) { return $('#popover-content').html(); } });
This will load the html content from element '#popover-content' when calling 'show' on popover.

Note: If trigger element still has a data-content element, even if its empty, the content function will not be called by method.

My biggest issue still with Bootstrap tools is that they are not g…
