1. Create a new Telegram bot:
   1. start a chat with BotFather;
   2. type /newbot, select a name (to be shown in chats) and handle for your bot;
   3. note the bot token to access HTTP API - a long string with a colon in the middle (later referred to as <token>);
   4. optionally /setdescription and /setuserpic.
2. Add the bot to the chat/channel and note its id:
   1. add the bot to a new or existing chat or group - this is where your bot will send notifications to;
   2. go to https://api.telegram.org/bot<token>/getUpdates (replace <token> with your token);
   3. within the chat part, find and note the id field - a positive or negative number (later referred to as <chat_id>).
3. Programmatically send notifications:

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"

Each of these commands will run an ad hoc http static server in your current (or specified) directory, available at http://localhost:8000. Use this power wisely.

The fastest remote directory rsync over ssh archival I can muster (40MB/s over 1gb NICs)

This creates an archive that does the following:

rsync (Everyone seems to like -z, but it is much slower for me)

• a: archive mode - rescursive, preserves owner, preserves permissions, preserves modification times, preserves group, copies symlinks as symlinks, preserves device files.
• H: preserves hard-links
• A: preserves ACLs

Ideas for improvements to git log --graph

I will maybe someday get around to dusting off my C and making these changes myself unless someone else does it first.

Make the graph for --topo-order less wiggly

Imagine a long-running development branch periodically merges from master. The git log --graph --all --topo-order is not as simple as it could be, as of git version 1.7.10.4.

It doesn't seem like a big deal in this example, but when you're trying to follow the history trails in ASCII and you've got several different branches displayed at once, it gets difficult quickly.
