Bash script to build a restic exclude list that mimics Apple TimeMachine exclude list
#!/bin/bash
# This script intend to mimic TimeMachine exclude list.
# As the exclude list can evolve between backups it has to be rebuilt before every backup
# Apple uses 5 types of excludes, four from the /System/Library/CoreServices/backupd.bundle/Contents/Resources/StdExclusions.plist file
# and files from applications where metadata says to not backup, these can be found usinf
# sudo mdfind "com_apple_backup_excludeItem = 'com.apple.backupd'"

This sets up keybindings in tmux that allow you to copy/paste to/from your OS X clipboard from tmux running inside an SSH connection to a remote host. Partially borrowed from http://seancoates.com/blogs/remote-pbcopy

Big list of http static server one-liners

Each of these commands will run an ad hoc http static server in your current (or specified) directory, available at http://localhost:8000. Use this power wisely.

Use one of these techniques to install node and npm without having to sudo. Discussed in more detail at http://joyeur.com/2010/12/10/installing-node-and-npm/ Note: npm >=0.3 is *safer* when using sudo.
echo 'export PATH=$HOME/local/bin:$PATH' >> ~/.bashrc
. ~/.bashrc
mkdir ~/local
mkdir ~/node-latest-install
cd ~/node-latest-install
curl http://nodejs.org/dist/node-latest.tar.gz | tar xz --strip-components=1
./configure --prefix=~/local
make install # ok, fine, this step probably takes more than 30 seconds...
