Witty.rb -> Parse .git/index

# ** What does this do? **
# This script demonstrates how to parse a Git index file (.git/index)
# using nothing but the languages IO facilities. This is perhaps best
# done in a systems language, or a strongly-typed language where there

Cloning All Gerrit Repos

I'm doing this with the myrepos perl script. I started down the path of reimplementing a good chunk of functionality of myrepos before realizing my mistake and generating a config file instead :)

To generate the config file I used this beauty:

while read repo; do
    printf '[%s]\n%s\n\n' "${repo}.git" "checkout = git clone --mirror https://gerrit-replica.wikimedia.org/r/${repo}"

done < <(curl -sL https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/projects/?all | \

Super easy method for experimenting with matplotlib graphs - with a bunch of examples. Approach used below is for purpose of quick prototyping (configure graphs, convert output to base64 encoded html tags, send html directly to browser). Script is easily modified and can run by pasting its text into a Terminal window. Tested on macOS.
#!/bin/bash
# Edit: this code is simply horrible in many ways, but that's how we learn I suppose.
# See the comment below for a better example:

# Because Gerrit's "daemon --init" can't take init options we will do this

Getting lirc to work with Raspberry Pi 3 (Raspbian Stretch)
Notes to make IR shield (made by LinkSprite) work in Raspberry Pi 3 (bought from Amazon [1]).
The vendor has some documentation [2] but that is not complete and sufficient for Raspbian Stretch.
Following are the changes that I made to make it work.
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install lirc
# Add the following lines to /etc/modules file

Ableist Language in Code: Sanity Check

Ableist Language in Code: Sanity Check

Removing ableist language in code is important; it helps to create and maintain an environment that welcomes all developers of all backgrounds, while emphasizing that we as developers select the most articulate, precise, descriptive language we can rather than relying on metaphors. Quite simply, avoiding ableist language lets us make sure we are inclusive of all developers, while moving toward language that is simultaneously more acccessible to developers whose first language might not be our own.

The phrase sanity check is ableist, and unnecessarily references mental health in our code bases. It denotes that people with mental illnesses are inferior, wrong, or incorrect, and the phrase sanity continues to be used by employers and other individuals to discriminate against these people.

There are a ton of alternatives, and one of the best ways to select one is to ask yourself: What am I actually checking? and select something more descriptive. In everyday c
