Uploading to S3 in 18 lines of Shell (used to upload builds for http://soltrader.net)
# You don't need Fog in Ruby or some other library to upload to S3 -- shell works perfectly fine
# This is how I upload my new Sol Trader builds (http://soltrader.net)
# Based on a modified script from here: http://tmont.com/blargh/2014/1/uploading-to-s3-in-bash

Gift Ideas For Young Engineers
  • Leatherman for young'ins ($54) Comes with the knife blade detached which can be added when 'earned:' http://gearjunkie.com/leatherman-leap-kids-multi-tool
  • Weather Lab ($15) This is more science oriented. Science can be boring at times, but carefully noting numbers and charting phenomenon to find correlation is a concept all should understand. www.smartlabtoys.com/you-track-it-weather-lab.html
  • Robo Link A ($25) Kit that builds five robot variations. It's not an intelligent (interactive) robot. It's mean to learn bout gears (mechanical engineering). www.makershed.com/products/robo-link-a
  • Lego Mindstorms EV3 ($350) shop.lego.com/en-US/LEGO-MINDSTORMS-EV3-31313 Ultimate lego kit, comes with motors, sensors and programmable controller which allows you to write programs and built ultimately anything (robots, machines, etc.). You can use their graphical programming language or venture out into RobotC, which is C-based. Make serious robots without electronics to get in the way.

Converting a folder full of markdown files, each linking to each other ... convert those files to HTML, and convert the relative links to point to the new html files. Add code highlighting with highlight.js . Finally serve up the result as a static web site.
Converting md files to html w/highlighting
0a) Create a root directory to pull in all the repos
0b) Recursively clone or pull each repo
$> git clone <repo_url> | git pull on the existing repos
0c) Create a TOC index.html file for the root folder
$> echo '<head>' >> index.html
$> echo '' >> index.html
$> echo '</head>' >> index.html
$> echo '<body>' >> index.html
$> ls >> temp.html

I'm writing in response to events that have recently come to light involving a sexual assault at a tech conference. Background information can be found [here][1], [here][2], and [here][3] as well as on twitter and google.

I've been watching this from the sidelines, and I've been wrestling with several questions that I can't seem to shake and that I really don't have answers to.

I wear many hats, both in the tech community and others. I'm a coder, a speaker, a user group organizer, a conference organizer, and even a boss. Each of those roles colors how I see this, but there's one role that is overpowering in my reaction.

See, I'm a Dad. A dad of two beautiful and innocent girls who are 3 and 2. They have their whole lives in front of them and so the questions I'm struggling with are:
