I was surfing around on SuperUser today, and found a mention to a tool from Apple that I hadn’t heard of before. It’s called the iPhone Configuration Utility, which allows you to examine logs from your iPhone or iPod Touch, to apply configuration and provisioning profiles, and more. The tool is very interesting! [Download: Windows|Mac]

Querying the StackOverflow Data Dump Online with StatOverflow
September 13, 2009
Every month, StackOverflow, the brilliant and completely open question and answer site for programmers, releases a Creative-Commons licensed dump of their database. You can download this huge dump yourself, but it’s typically a very large file, and then comes the hassle of getting the XML files into a database of your choice. Now, there is a way to get around those inconveniences, by simply bypassing the whole download procedure and querying the data dump in the cloud! That’s what StatOverflow is for. Just go to the sandbox, enter an SQL query, and voila! Also, there’s a quite helpful meta.stackoverflow post which explains the anatomy of the dump, so that querying it is much easier. Enjoy!
