This reminds me about mapping the CapsLock to Windows-key on old Lenovo keyboard (you can do that [Wayback/Archive] with ReMapKey from Microsoft, the [Wayback/Archive] slightly more convoluted open source SharpKeys, or a AutoHotKey script), and a [Wayback] Mac equivalent:
MacOS:
I like to have a second Control key instead of Caps Lock.
In OS X, go to System Preferences -> Keyboard -> Keyboard -> Modifier Keys… and change or turn off Caps Lock, Control, Option and Command.
For more radical key remapping in OS X, use KeyRemap4MacBook. Despite the name, it works on non-Macbook machines, too.
…
ChromeBook:
If you miss having the Caps Lock button on your #Chromebook, you can turn the Search button into a Caps Lock button in a couple steps: find “Keyboard Settings” under the “Settings” menu, and select “Caps Lock” under the “Search” drop-down menu.
Or you can use this quick link on your Chromebook: chrome://settings/keyboard-overlay
Chromebook has [Wayback/Archive] quite some different keys than a Windows keyboard.
Ben Ostrowsky has a nice post with an SVG drawing of the [Wayback/Archive] Chromebook keyboard layout.

Thanks Raymond Chen for suggesting about [WayBack] COMPACT.EXE to set NTFS compression flags for files, directories or volumes:
The command-line tool for this is COMPACT.EXE. Type compact /? for usage information.
Example to recursively compress D:\backup:
compact /C /S /A D:\backup\*.*

Just append -O and -v to a command-line:
nmap -O -v ip-address
Note you need administrative privileges for this on Mac OS X, so there you run it like this:
sudo nmap -O -v ip-address
If you want to scan more than the default 1000 TCP ports, then use the -p- switch:
sudo nmap -O -v -p- ip-address
For more info about the finger printing algorithms used by nmap:

ForNeVeR now maintains ManagedSpy, see his answer on StackOverflow
BTW, I’ve cloned the original ManagedSpy source code and maintaining the code today (for example, ported it to .NET4).
See project on GitHub.

You don’t want to fully open your Mac to always install applications, so I’m glad that OSXDaily provided multiple workarounds:
Fix the “App can’t be opened because it is from an unidentified developer” Error in Mac OS X.
I needed it to install the nmap binary for OS X.

I got the message “peer sync token could not be validated” in the Windows copy.com app while accepting a share from another user.
The only Google search hit was Malwr – Malware Analysis by Cuckoo Sandbox.
Anyone has seen that message before?
After I’ve requested a new share half an hour later, and that one worked.

Summary: Always try to avoid sharing .DCU files between projects.
I see a lot of projects at clients that do not have their individual DCU directories set (therefore having the DCU files in the same directory as the PAS files causing shared units to share the DCU files), or share DCU files among different projects.
Both are a very bad idea, as the compiler does not always understand when the DCU file does not match the combination of PAS file and compiler options.
The result is the occasional use of the DCU file in stead of the PAS file causing wrong code to be used, or wrong debugger information to be included.
