chapter 5: For nsq on OSX, need to turn on filesharing

The steps listed in chapter 5 will result in nsq using a hostname like Your-MacBook.local

If the Bonjour service is not enabled, the consumer and nsq_tail will not be able to connect to nsqdlookup

Fix:
to fix this, filesharing can be turned on in the OS

Only opened this so the issue and a fix is documented for others to see.

I used this way to workaround https://nsq.io/overview/quick_start.html
I have no idea about why all bonjour sharing options on my Mac are off, and I am new to OSX.
I specified IP address for a nsqd:

nsqd --lookupd-tcp-address=127.0.0.1:4160

This was sufficient to make chapter 5 program twittervotes working.
