Liberal, Accurate Regex Pattern for Matching Web URLs
The regex patterns in this gist are intended only to match web URLs -- http,
https, and naked domains like "example.com". For a pattern that attempts to
match all URLs, regardless of protocol, see: https://gist.github.com/gruber/249502
# Single-line version:

Whiteboard Picture Cleaner - Shell one-liner/script to clean up and beautify photos of whiteboards!

Description

This simple script will take a picture of a whiteboard and use parts of the ImageMagick library with sane defaults to clean it up tremendously.

The script is here:

#!/bin/bash
convert "$1" -morphology Convolve DoG:15,100,0 -negate -normalize -blur 0x1 -channel RBG -level 60%,91%,0.1 "$2"

Results

First, you install ruby-build and chruby. ruby-build is a program that knows how to download and build different ruby versions. chruby manages $PATH to control which ruby gets invoked in your shell. They work completely independently.

sudo su
cd /usr/src

git clone https://github.com/sstephenson/ruby-build.git
cd ruby-build
./install.sh
cd -

This is a monkey patch to change Rails 4's default session/signed cookie serializer from Marshal to JSON for security and compatibility reasons. Note that this is a hack, a pretty terrible one and you should only use it if you know what you're doing. Also, I only wrote this patch for my own personal use, so don't be surprised if it doesn't work …
# Hack to change the Rails cookie serializer from Marshal to JSON and therefore allow the session
# to be shared between different languages but also avoid that someone knowing the
# cookie secret key could execute arbitrary code on the server by unmarshalling
# modified Ruby code added to the session/permanent cookie.
#
# Note that all users will beed to login again since both the remember me cookie and the session cookies
# won't be valid. Note also that the remember me cookie is tested multiple times per request even when it fails.
# for performance reasons you might want to delete it if these extra cycles are too costly for you.
#
# Rails 4 (not tested on Rails 3).

An implementation of a merged array in Ember.js that combines items from multiple source arrays so you can easily list them together in your Handlebars templates. Read the blog post at the [Billy's Billing Developer Blog](http://dev.billysbilling.com/blog/How-to-merge-multiple-data-sources-into-one-array-in-Ember-js)
/**
* `Ember.MergedArray` is an array that observes multiple other arrays (called source arrays) for changes and includes
* all items from all source arrays in an efficient way.

* Usage:

Big list of http static server one-liners

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.
