fnordfish

Very rough description on how I use [Vagrant][vagrant]. Uses some SSH magic to get easy git access to your private repos.

Host Setup

• Use most recent version of [vagrant][vagrant].
• Some tools and plugins:
  • [vagrant-dns][vagrant-dns] (MacOS only!) starts a local DNS Server, so that you can access your webserver with a domain name (not only an IP). After installation (vagrant plugin install vagrant-dns) run vagrant dns --install to initially setup some system configurations on your system. This will require you to enter your password once.

premiere-subtitle-convert

Conversion script between the TTML & SRT subtitle formats. This is particularly useful with Adobe Premiere, as it doesn't understand the SRT format (which is joyously simple and interoperable). TTML-XML is probably the most straightforward subtitle format it does understand, hence this tool.

Note that due to the simplicity of the SRT format, this conversion is extremely lossy for all the bells and whistles supported by TTML. Not like you'd want fixed-pixel font sizes etc in your subtitles anyway, but you've been warned.

ClosedStruct

A stupidly simple implementation of a kind of "sorta immutable" struct that can be instantiated as conveniently as an OpenStruct but after instantiation it doesn't let me (easily) add fields or mutate them:

guy = ClosedStruct.new( name: "John", age: 23 )

# readers:
guy.name             #=> "John"
guy.age #=> 23
