rsync useful dirs from Mac ('hokey') -> removable disk
root@hokey:/# for D in `ls -lha | awk '/^d/ {print $NF}' | egrep -v '^(.Spotlight-V100|.Trashes|Volumes|dev)' | tail -n +3`; do echo "--------- Looking at ${D} -------"; rsync -vua /${D}/ /Volumes/Hokey-Backup/hokey-system/${D}/; done
# yes I could use awk instead of egrep.
# I prefer for() over while() for some reason.

Adam brain-farts on "rules" for data
"it" means datasource(s)
1. is it accessible, without registration, academic credentials or not? what are the requirements, how long does it take
2. what are the licensing arrangements/terms
3. is this a restricted dataset? does it need to be stored/processed in line with iso 27001 [ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO/IEC_27001 ] or special rules?
4. is re-use permitted? even commercial? (and subsidiary)

These two files should help you to import passwords from mac OS X keychains to 1password.
Assumptions:
1) You have some experience with scripting/are a power-user. These scripts worked for me
but they haven't been extensively tested and if they don't work, you're on your own!
Please read this whole document before starting this process. If any of it seems
incomprehensible/frightening/over your head please do not use these scripts. You will
probably do something Very Bad and I wouldn't want that.
2) You have ruby 1.9.2 installed on your machine. This comes as standard with Lion, previous
versions of OS X may have earlier versions of ruby, which *may* work, but then again, they

After spending the better part of the month implementing date support
in RethinkDB, Mike Lucy sent the team the following e-mail. It would
have been funny, if it didn't cause thousands of programmers so much
pain. Read it, laugh, and weep!

So, it turns out that we're only going to support dates between the
year 1400 and the year 10000 (inclusive), because that's what boost
supports.
