Text Encoding

How are text files encoded, and what are the pros and cons of different encodings? This document introduces the ASCII and Unicode encodings to answer these questions. Some short pieces of Go code are provided which you can run yourself to see how strings are being encoded. Go is used because it has built-in support for Unicode, but you should be able to follow without any knowledge of Go.

Fix Ubuntu and other Linux slow/hanging file copying via USB.

If your running a x64 bit Ubuntu or other Linux and find USB transfers hang at the end apply this fix:

echo $((16*1024*1024)) > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_background_bytes
echo $((48*1024*1024)) > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_bytes

I suggest you edit your /etc/rc.local file to make this change persistant across reboots.

sudo nano /etc/rc.local
