A script to enable easy ipdb usage for Vim users.
" Author: Bernardo Fontes <[email protected]>
" Website: http://www.bernardofontes.net
" This code is based on this one: http://www.cmdln.org/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/python_ipdb.vim
" I worked with refactoring and it simplifies a lot the remove breakpoint feature.
" To use this feature, you just need to copy and paste the content of this file at your .vimrc file! Enjoy!
python << EOF
import vim
import re
ipdb_breakpoint = 'import ipdb; ipdb.set_trace()'

Download a cacert.pem for RailsInstaller

Why?

There is a long standing issue in Ruby where the net/http library by default does not check the validity of an SSL certificate during a TLS handshake. Rather than deal with the underlying problem (a missing certificate authority, a self-signed certificate, etc.) one tends to see bad hacks everywhere. This can lead to problems down the road.

From what I can see the OpenSSL library that Rails Installer delivers has no certificate authorities defined. So, let's go fetch some from the curl website. And since this is for ruby, why don't we download and install the file with a ruby script?

Installation

The Ruby Way! (Fun)

How to stream a webcam to a web browser in Ubuntu

Grr this took hours to figure out. I was trying to install MJPG-streamer and running VLC command lines and all this crap but nothing worked.

First install motion:

~> sudo apt-get install motion

Then create a config file:

~> mkdir ~/.motion

~> nano ~/.motion/motion.conf

notes on symmetric 3x3 matrix maths
// symmetric matrix stuff
// not heavily tested but should be about right
// hlsl notation
// thanks to @rygorous @m1k3 and mark adami for help
// mostly just a big geek out :)
// multiply e by the 3x3 symmetric 3x3 matrix fromed from d on the diagonal and u in the upper triangle
float3 mul_sym3x3(float3 d, float3 u, float3 e)
{
return float3(dot(e,float3(d.x,u.z,u.y)), // u=(yz,xz,xy) in the case of covariance matrix

Step-by-step instructions for installing RhodeCode 1.3.6 on Ubuntu Server 12.04 with Nginx 1.2.1 as the reverse proxy. This was written when these were the latest versions; add a comment if the scripts need to change to accommodate changes in newer versions.The script assumes you want to use a SQLite database. Sorry, you'll need to find another …

Setting up RhodeCode on Ubuntu Server 12.04

Goal

  • Everything running on a single Ubuntu Server
  • RhodeCode running in a virtualenv
  • Use SQLite as the database

# Paste this into ssh
# curl -sL https://gist.github.com/andsens/2913223/raw/bootstrap_homeshick.sh | tar -xzO | /bin/bash -ex
# When forking, you can get the URL from the raw (<>) button.
### Set some command variables depending on whether we are root or not ###
# This assumes you use a debian derivate, replace with yum, pacman etc.

tmux cheatsheet

tmux cheat sheet

(C-x means ctrl+x, M-x means alt+x)

Prefix key

The default prefix is C-b. If you (or your muscle memory) prefer C-a, you need to add this to ~/.tmux.conf:

remap prefix to Control + a
