Evernote Tip: Filter for Incomplete Reminders

##Incomplete Reminders Search:

The script is pretty basic and goes like the following:

-reminderDoneTime:00011231 reminderOrder:00011231

###How it works To start with, reminderDoneTime:[datetime] returns true if it finds a date that is on or after what is listed. We can invert this by prepending the query with a -. As a result, -reminderDoneTime:[datetime] returns true if the note either has no timestamp or if it has a date before [datetime].

#!/usr/bin/ruby
# Create display override file to force Mac OS X to use RGB mode for Display
# see http://embdev.net/topic/284710
require 'base64'
data=`ioreg -l -d0 -w 0 -r -c AppleDisplay`
edids=data.scan(/IODisplayEDID.*?<([a-z0-9]+)>/i).flatten
vendorids=data.scan(/DisplayVendorID.*?([0-9]+)/i).flatten

Flask + uWSGI + nginx Primer

I've been having trouble with serving a Flask app via uWSGI and nginx, so I thought I'd put together some of the basics to help out others.

How this shit works

  • Flask is managed by uWSGI.
  • uWSGI talks to nginx.

Checkout github pull requests locally

Locate the section for your github remote in the .git/config file. It looks like this:

[remote "origin"]
	fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
	url = [email protected]:joyent/node.git

Now add the line fetch = +refs/pull/*/head:refs/remotes/origin/pr/* to this section. Obviously, change the github url to match your project's URL. It ends up looking like this:

one-line tree in python

One-line Tree in Python

Using Python's built-in defaultdict we can easily define a tree data structure:

def tree(): return defaultdict(tree)

That's it!
