Just a note-to-self to prevent me from reinventing the wheel again.

A shuffle that always produces a predictable output.

e.g.

>>> x = [0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9]
>>> dshuffle(x)
[7, 8, 1, 5, 3, 4, 2, 0, 9, 6]

I use direnv to automatically set environment variables per directory. It's great, but there's no elegant solution for aliases with direnv. So I rolled my own, inspired by this answer on Ask Ubuntu.

Add a few lines to your .bashrc and place custom aliases into a .aliases file in any directory. Those aliases will be set when you enter that dir, and unset when you leave.

It's certainly not perfect and there are doubtless some gotchas, but it's pretty handy.

Add the following to your .bashrc so whenever you start a shell, it will load the .aliases file in whichever dir your shell has started. You should add it somewhere after your other aliases are defined/loaded.

	#!/usr/bin/env python

	from pony.orm import Database, Optional, Required, Set

	db = Database()

	@db.on_connect(provider="sqlite")
	def pragmas(db, connection):
	cursor = connection.cursor()
	cursor.execute('PRAGMA foreign_keys = true')

	-- Also uses officer package syntax to create sections breaks

	local function newpage(format)
	if format == 'docx' then
	local pagebreak = '<w:p xmlns:w=\"http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/wordprocessingml/2006/main\" xmlns:wp=\"http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/drawingml/2006/wordprocessingDrawing\" xmlns:r=\"http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/officeDocument/2006/relationships\" xmlns:w14=\"http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/word/2010/wordml\"><w:r><w:br w:type="page"/></w:r></w:p>'
	return pandoc.RawBlock('openxml', pagebreak)
	else
	return pandoc.Para{pandoc.Str '\f'}
	end
