Add a help target to a Makefile that will allow all targets to be self documenting
# Add the following 'help' target to your Makefile
# And add help text after each target name starting with '\#\#'
help: ## Show this help.
@fgrep -h "##" $(MAKEFILE_LIST) | fgrep -v fgrep | sed -e 's/\\$$//' | sed -e 's/##//'

Latency numbers every programmer should know

L1 cache reference ......................... 0.5 ns
Branch mispredict ............................ 5 ns                     on recent CPU
L2 cache reference ........................... 7 ns                     14x L1 cache
Mutex lock/unlock ........................... 25 ns
Main memory reference ...................... 100 ns                     20x L2 cache, 200x L1 cache
Compress 1K bytes with Zippy ............. 3,000 ns  =   3 µs
Send 2K bytes over 1 Gbps network ....... 20,000 ns  =  20 µs
SSD random read ........................ 150,000 ns  = 150 µs

Read 1 MB sequentially from memory ..... 250,000 ns = 250 µs 4X memory

Git pre-commit check to stop accidental commits to master/main/develop branches.
#!/bin/bash
# This gist contains pre-commit hooks to prevent you from commiting bad code or to the wrong branch.
# There are six variants that I have built:
# - pre-commit: stops commits to master/main/develop branches.
# - pre-commit-2: also includes a core.whitespace check.
# - pre-commit-3: the core.whitespace check and an EOF-newline-check.
# - pre-commit-4: only the core.whitespace check.
# - pre-commit-5: elixir formatting check.
# - pre-commit-6: prettier formatting check.
# Set the desired version like this before proceeding:
