The gem 'ambition' requires 'ParseTree' which isn't compatible with 1.9.2. Recommendations on next steps?

Redis URI examples
The ToRedisEndPoints extension method ( found here: https://github.com/ServiceStack/ServiceStack.Redis/blob/master/src/ServiceStack.Redis/RedisExtensions.cs ) doesn't know how to process a string-based redis endpoint using URI syntax.
Example: this fails to parse.
redis://user-is-not-used:password-is-used@my-redis-server:1234/5678
It more strictly expects a format that is:
password@host:port
If I pass it the URI above ("redis://" prefixed) then it fails to process.

find-string (fs) for bash In powershell I had "fs" wrap a simple find-string helper. Been missing it in bash, but it was easy enough to create.
fs() {
if [ "$#" -lt 1 ]
then
echo "A search string is required"
return
fi
find . -iname "${2:-*.cs}" | xargs grep "$1" -s

ServiceStack self-host workaround for VirtualPathUtility exception. If you're self-hosting recent versions of ServiceStack (3.9.45+) and serving Razor views, you'll notice that @href (which is a wrapper around Url.Content) fails with app-relative paths that start with "~/". Add the following to your startup code to work around it.
var domain = Thread.GetDomain(); // or AppDomain.Current
domain.SetData(".appDomain", "yep");
domain.SetData(".appVPath", "/");
domain.SetData(".appPath", domain.BaseDirectory);
if (String.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(domain.GetData(".appId") as string))
{
domain.SetData(".appId", "1");
}
if (String.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(domain.GetData(".domainId") as string))
