sp is a command-line client for Spotify's dbus interface. Play, pause, skip and search tracks from the comfort of your command line.
#!/usr/bin/env bash
#
# This is sp, the command-line Spotify controller. It talks to a running
# instance of the Spotify Linux client over dbus, providing an interface not
# unlike mpc.
#
# Put differently, it allows you to control Spotify without leaving the comfort
# of your command line, and without a custom client or Premium subscription.

This jquery extended function covers all the iframes inside an element with a transparent div and dispatches any "click"(only click) to the iframe. This is a workaround for the case when you dont want an iframe to swallow touch events on the page and is normally valid in the case of inline ads.
$.fn.coverIframes = function(){
$.each($("iframe",this),function(i,v){
var ifr = $(v);
var wr = $("<div id='wr"+new Date().getTime()+i+"' style='z-index: 999999; opacity: 0; position:absolute; width:100%;'></div>");
ifr.before(wr);
wr.height(ifr.height());
wr.click(function(event){
var iframe = ifr.get(0);
var iframeDoc = (iframe.contentDocument) ? iframe.contentDocument : iframe.contentWindow.document;
// Find click position (coordinates)

FizzBuzz solved using only bit twiddling. It essentially uses two deterministic finite automata for divisibility testing.
#include <stdio.h>
int f0(unsigned int x) { return x? (x&(1<<31)? f1(x<<1) : f0(x<<1)) : 1; }
int f1(unsigned int x) { return x? (x&(1<<31)? f3(x<<1) : f2(x<<1)) : 0; }
int f2(unsigned int x) { return x? (x&(1<<31)? f0(x<<1) : f4(x<<1)) : 0; }
int f3(unsigned int x) { return x? (x&(1<<31)? f2(x<<1) : f1(x<<1)) : 0; }
int f4(unsigned int x) { return x? (x&(1<<31)? f4(x<<1) : f3(x<<1)) : 0; }
int t0(unsigned int x) { return x? (x&(1<<31)? t1(x<<1) : t0(x<<1)) : 1; }
int t1(unsigned int x) { return x? (x&(1<<31)? t0(x<<1) : t2(x<<1)) : 0; }
int t2(unsigned int x) { return x? (x&(1<<31)? t2(x<<1) : t1(x<<1)) : 0; }

# 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 need 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.

Print stacktrace without raising and Exception in Ruby and/or Rails

Print a stacktrace in Ruby or Rails without raising an exception

Why

You know what method is being and you want to figure out how it got there. Raising an exception is a bit harsh since all you want is a stack trace

How

puts caller

Seriously. It's that easy. If you're getting too much information you could
