Quoting John Hart‘s brilliant answer:
Using --resolve leverages all of the normal logic that applies, but simply pretends the DNS lookup returned the data in your command-line option. It works just like /etc/hosts should.
Note --resolve takes a port number, so for HTTPS you would use
Https: curl --resolve 'yada.com:443:127.0.0.1' https://yada.com/something
Http: curl --resolve 'yada.com:80:127.0.0.1' http://yada.com/something
It requires curl 7.21.3 or higher (from the end of 2010). Which by now everybody should have.

I fully agree with Kevin Powick who wrote Good article. Not only applicable to commercial website development, but almost all commercial software.
“You only get what you measure, so be careful what you measure.”
How One Jira Ticket Made My Employer $1MM/Month: 7 Metrics that Actually Matter — JavaScript Scene — Medium
And more highly valuable tips when writing any type of software.
Somewhere in the middle are his golden additions to the Agile values:
Individuals and interactions over processes and tools
Working software over comprehensive documentation
Customer collaboration over contract negotiation
Responding to change over following a plan
If that doesn’t look familiar, you really need to read this.
I’ll add some more of my favorite dev team values:
Skills over titles
Continuous delivery over deadlines
Support over blame
Collaboration over competition
After that he focuses on a few of them explaining where you could go completely wrong and how to do it “the right way”.
Highly recommended reading.

Boy I wish I had known this earlier. Like years ago…
In the Solution Explorer:
- Right Click Project
- Project Build Oder.
- Use the dialog to change the build order
It is next to the “Project Dependencies” in this image from Sara Ford:
Sara Ford: change “Project Build Order”
In the resulting dialog, you can change the build order within your solution.
This can be very useful when – for various reasons – you cannot have Project Level dependencies for an assembly, but have to have Assembly Reference dependencies for individual assemblies.
At a client I bumped into this, and this dialog was a life saver for us.
Others have used it because some Visual Studio versions miscalculate the dependencies.

Via the answer below I created the renew alias. I already had the first two aliases.
alias route-and-ipaddresses="netstat -nr | grep 'Internet\|Gateway\|default' && echo && ifconfig | grep '\: flags\|inet\|inet6' && echo more detailed info through ifconfig and netstat -nr"
alias whatismyip="curl http://whatismyip.akamai.com && echo"
alias renew_dhcp="sudo ipconfig set en0 DHCP && echo waiting 10 seconds for DHCP lease to be obtained && sleep 10 && route-and-ipaddresses && whatismyip"

Do NOT delete the folder "C:\ProgramData\Package Cache".
But you can move it to another storage and link to it so when you change/update/remove Visual Studio 2012, you still have access to it.

Since they’re hard to find on-line, and sometimes I need them when not having access to my collective browser or email history:
Notes:
- The AQTimeDemo.exe is the same as the latest AQTime###.exe (functionality depends in license).
- The installation from Windows Explorer sometimes fails with the below message. Installation from the command-prompt works, but you need to run it from an Administrator command-prompt:
---------------------------
E:\TEMP\AQtime824.exe
---------------------------
Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------
To get going for my special case, I watched some sample videos (which I did get to work in Internet Explorer but not in Chrome forty-something):
I needed it to do some profiling comparisons of services running under different configurations.

I needed to find the symlinks in /etc pointing to directories and know both the name and place they point to.

Always handy to have at hand as the git-reset documentation is toooooo long:
Undo a commit and redo
$ git commit ... (1)
$ git reset --soft HEAD~1 (2)
<< edit files as necessary >> (3)
$ git add .... (4)
$ git commit -c ORIG_HEAD (5)
- This is what you want to undo
- This is most often done when you remembered what you just committed is incomplete, or you misspelled your commit message1, or both. Leaves working tree as it was before “commit”.
- Make corrections to working tree files.
- Stage changes for commit.
- Commit the changes, reusing the old commit message.
reset copied the old head to .git/ORIG_HEAD; commit with -c ORIG_HEAD will open an editor, which initially contains the log message from the old commit and allows you to edit it. If you do not need to edit the message, you could use the -C option instead.
