Lizard Lamps, for your hands! Heated Desk Mats? Envavo Heat Buff?

A few years ago I was in a cold (somewhat drafty) office with poor heating options.

A space heater helped. Wearing a jacket and a beanie helped. But typing with gloves on wasn't in the cards.

So I looked around and saw ads for the Envavo Heat Buff, but I couldn't find a way to buy one.

I ended up looking towards heat lamps, what are used for repiles and so forth and found a combo that worked for my setup.

7z to make arbitrary zip of a single file for upload/download

Hopefully you have a programming language that supports some sort of native compression scheme for uploads and downloads.

If not, you can use zip/unzip. But what about onto machines that don't have zip/unzip? What about 7zip?

This seems like a lot, but for a single file up and down with compression in a language that doesn't do it for you, it works okay...

This is a serverside rename, zip, upload, then client side download setup.

Given a file you want to zip before uploading, and you want to set the name of the file to be a secure_filename... There are a few steps.
