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.

Due to the popularity of this Gist, and the work in keeping it updated via a Gist, all future updates will take place at the above location. Thanks!

Abstract

You could have postgre installed on localhost with password (or without user or password seted after instalation) but if we are developing we really don't need password, so configuring postgre server without password for all your rails project is usefull.

Install Postgre packages

postgresql
postgresql-client
libpq-dev

What

A lot of times you are developing a web application on your own laptop or home computer and would like to demo it to the public. Most of those times you are behind a router/firewall and you don't have a public IP address. Instead of configuring routers (often not possible), this solution gives you a public URL that's reverse tunnelled via ssh to your laptop.

Because of the relaxation of the sshd setup, it's best used on a dedicated virtual machine just for this (an Amazon micro instance for example).

	// UIImage preloading strategies. Results for 1 MB png on iPhone 4S:
	// - No preload: drawing the image right away (80 ms)
	// - Header preload: getting the width (10 ms) and then drawing (100 ms)
	// - Data preload: getting the data (110 ms) and then drawing (75 ms)
	// - Draw preload: drawing it once (100 ms) and then again (20 ms)
	// In short: preload a UIImage by drawing it.
