Install Terminator (shell)

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gnome-terminator
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install terminator

Terminator should be setup as default now. Restart your terminal (shortcut: "Ctrl+Alt+T").

Bitcoin Full Node on AWS Free Tier

Provisioning

Launch one T2 micro instance, using Ubuntu 14.04 LTS AMI.
Open SSH and Bitcoin Protocol TCP ports: 22, 8333.
Attach 40GB EBS (General-Purpose SSD) volume for blockchain storage to /dev/sdf.

The pricing should be ~3$ for the first year (assuming 30GB upload per month). See here for more details.

Resize a Hard Disk for a Virtual Machine

Our Virtual Machines are provisioned using Vagrant from a Linux base box to run using VirutalBox. If the Hard Disk space runs out and you cannot remove files to free-up space, you can resize the Hard Disk using some VirtualBox and Linux commands.

Some assumptions

The following steps assume you've got a set-up like mine, where:

Open Computing Language (OpenCL) is a language and framework for writing computationally intensive kernels that run accross heterogenious platforms, including GPUs, CPUs, and perhaps other more esoteric devices.

Intel provides an OpenCL implementation for Intel CPUs, but there's not a lot of instructions on how to get it set up. Here's what I did.

Installing Intel CPU OpenCL on Ubuntu (12.04)

Download the Intel® SDK for OpenCL* Applications XE 2013 from the Intel website, here http://software.intel.com/en-us/vcsource/tools/opencl-sdk-xe. The download is a tarball -- the one I got is called intel_sdk_for_ocl_applications_2013_xe_sdk_3.0.67279_x64.tgz
Unpack the tarball and cd into the new directory

(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

	#ack is a tool like grep, designed for programmers with large trees of heterogeneous source code

	#to install ack, see http://betterthangrep.com/
	#to use ack, launch terminal (mac osx) and type 'ack <some_keywords>'
	#ack will search all files in the current directory & sub-directories

	#here's how I have my config file setup. this file is located on mac osx here
	# ~/.ackrc

	# Always sort the files
