Install and use pip in a local directory without root/sudo access.

Install and use pip in a local directory without root/sudo access.

Why?

Many users when are given server access, do not have root (or sudo) privileges and can not simply do sudo apt-get install python-pip . Here's an easy way you can install and use pip without root (or sudo) access in a local directory. Note : This works without easy_install too.

How?

OverEncrypt - paranoid HTTPS

OverEncrypt

This is a guide that I wrote to improve the default security of my website https://fortran.io , which has a certificate from LetsEncrypt. I'm choosing to improve HTTPS security and transparency without consideration for legacy browser support.

WARNING: if you mess up settings, lose your certificates, or decide to no longer maintain HTTPS certs, these steps can and will make your domain inaccessible.

I would recommend these steps only if you have a specific need for information security, privacy, and trust with your users, and/or maintain a separate secure.example.com domain which won't mess up your main site. If you've been thinking about hosting a site on Tor, then this might be a good option, too.

The best resources that I've found for explaining these steps are https://https.cio.gov , https://certificate-transparency.org , and https://twitter.com/konklone

FWIW: I (@rondy) am not the creator of the content shared here, which is an excerpt from Edmond Lau's book. I simply copied and pasted it from another location and saved it as a personal note, before it gained popularity on news.ycombinator.com. Unfortunately, I cannot recall the exact origin of the original source, nor was I able to find the author's name, so I am can't provide the appropriate credits.

Geocode as many addresses as you'd like with a powerful Python and Google Geocoding API combination
"""
Python script for batch geocoding of addresses using the Google Geocoding API.
This script allows for massive lists of addresses to be geocoded for free by pausing when the
geocoder hits the free rate limit set by Google (2500 per day). If you have an API key for paid
geocoding from Google, set it in the API key section.
Addresses for geocoding can be specified in a list of strings "addresses". In this script, addresses
come from a csv file with a column "Address". Adjust the code to your own requirements as needed.
After every 500 successul geocode operations, a temporary file with results is recorded in case of
script failure / loss of connection later.
Addresses and data are held in memory, so this script may need to be adjusted to process files line

Summary of 'Clean code' by Robert C. Martin

Code is clean if it can be understood easily – by everyone on the team. Clean code can be read and enhanced by a developer other than its original author. With understandability comes readability, changeability, extensibility and maintainability.


General rules

  1. Follow standard conventions.
  2. Keep it simple stupid. Simpler is always better. Reduce complexity as much as possible.
  3. Boy scout rule. Leave the campground cleaner than you found it.
  4. Always find root cause. Always look for the root cause of a problem.

Design rules
