fast loading of a large dataset into leveldb
// data comes from here http://stat-computing.org/dataexpo/2009/the-data.html
// download 1994.csv.bz2 and unpack by running: cat 1994.csv.bz2 | bzip2 -d > 1994.csv
// 1994.csv should be ~5.2 million lines and 500MB
// importing all rows into leveldb took ~50 seconds on my machine
// there are two main techniques at work here:
// 1: never create JS objects, leave the data as binary the entire time (binary-split does this)
// 2: group lines into 16 MB batches, to take advantage of leveldbs batch API (byte-stream does this)

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"

Quick steps of how to create a flame graph using perf

The prep-script.sh will setup the latest Node and install the latest perf version on your Linux box.

When you want to generate the flame graph, run the following (folder locations taken from install script):

sudo sysctl kernel.kptr_restrict=0
# May also have to do the following:

Dockerfile that attempts to run the app as non-root user. This creates a `node` user & sets permissions on app files. Note you cannot `chown` files in a docker 'volume' during the build process, but you can at runtime (as part of your `CMD`) but in that case you can't use the `USER` command to change the UID before `CMD` runs.
###
# Node.js app Docker file
#
# Some basic build instructions:
# ```
# # you should delete node_modules b/c you don't want that copied during 'ADD'
# docker build -t thom-nic/node-bootstrap .
# # run a shell in the container to inspect the environment (as root):
# docker run --rm -itu root thom-nic/node-bootstrap /bin/bash
# ```

The reason of creating this script is that Endpoint Security VPN installs it's own application firewall kext cpfw.kext which prevents for example PPTP connections from this computer, which is not appropriate if you need subj connection just from time to time.

# The script checks if Enpoint Security VPN is running. If it is, then it shuts it down, if it is not, it fires it up.
# Or, make an Automator action and paste the script.
