Archive.org Scanned Book Downloader Bookmarklet

A simple "1-click" javascript approach to downloading a scanned book from archive.org to read at your leisure on the device of your choosing w/out having to manually screenshot every pages of the book by hand. In short it's a glorified "Save Image As..." approach but consolidated down to "1 click". BTW there may be a much better option than this out there - I just built this as an autistic project to see if it would work.

Obligatory Legal/Disclaimer:

By using this script you agree to delete all book files/images after your 1 hour or 14 days is up! I don't support using this script for any other use cases. After all, none of us have ever kept a library book past it's return date, right?

To use Webster's 1913 dictionary on Android, install Colordict 3, an app that accepts this StarDict format. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.socialnmobile.colordict

Next download James's S3 archive. https://s3.amazonaws.com/jsomers/dictionary.zip

You will need to extract the .dict file from inside three containers - .dz, .tar, .bz2 from innermost to outermost. 7zip handles all of these formats.

Place the .dict, .idx and .ifo files in the dictdata directory on your sdcard or local storage root. This is where colordict looks for dictionaries.

When the files are in the right place, you can run Colordict and tap the folder icon in the top right to see the dictionaries installed and set the dictionary priority. I put the 1913 dictionary above the defaults "Wordnet" and "Wikipedia." When you look up a word, ColorDict shows the definition, if available, from these multiple sources.

	return reduce(lambda acc, x: acc + 1, lst, 0)

	return acc
	if x == item:
	return pos, pos

	Leaderboard Using Redis

	Strava KOMS, Powered by Redis

	For example, what if I only want to see a leaderboard of members who are between the ages of 18 and 49? The Sorted Set contains no information on how old each member is. And I don’t want to maintain a separate Redis Sorted Set for just these users, because that’s kind of redundant, right? You probably don’t want to fetch every single one of the potentially hundreds of thousands of records and filter individually… that’s not very efficient! There’s a couple of ways you could approach this with Redis. One is by way of Lua scripting with use of EVAL (which runs Lua) and ZSCAN (which can be used for matching keys and values by rules, similar to regular expressions).

	Stevey's Google Platforms Rant

	I was at Amazon for about six and a half years, and now I've been at Google for
	that long. One thing that struck me immediately about the two companies -- an
	impression that has been reinforced almost daily -- is that Amazon does
	everything wrong, and Google does everything right. Sure, it's a sweeping
	generalization, but a surprisingly accurate one. It's pretty crazy. There are
	probably a hundred or even two hundred different ways you can compare the two

	# Description:
	# There is a infinite string. You can imagine it's a combination of numbers from 1 to n, like this:
	#
	# "123456789101112131415....n-2n-1n"
	# Please note: the length of the string is infinite. It depends on how long you need it(I can't offer it as a argument, it only exists in your imagination) ;-)

	# Your task is complete function findPosition that accept a digital string num. Returns the position(index) of the digital string(the first appearance).
