Simple automated GIT Deployment using GIT Hooks

Here are the simple steps needed to create a deployment from your local GIT repository to a server based on this in-depth tutorial.

How it works

You are developing in a working-copy on your local machine, lets say on the master branch. Most of the time, people would push code to a remote server like github.com or gitlab.com and pull or export it to a production server. Or you use a service like deepl.io to act upon a Web-Hook that's triggered that service.

OS X Screencast to animated GIF

This gist shows how to create a GIF screencast using only free OS X tools: QuickTime, ffmpeg, and gifsicle.

Instructions

To capture the video (filesize: 19MB), using the free "QuickTime Player" application:

// Here is an extremely simple version of work scheduling for multiple
// processors.
//
// The Problem: 
//  We have a lot of numbers that need to be math'ed. Doing this on one 
//  CPU core is slow. We have 4 CPU cores. We would thus like to use those
//  cores to do math, because it will be a little less slow (ideally
//  4 times faster actually).

// The Solution:

I turned this gist into a "real" repository.  It is here:  http://github.com/pete/cats .


Here, placed side-by-side for comparison, are GNU's implementation of
cat, Plan 9's implementation, Busybox's implementation, and NetBSD's
implementation, Seventh Edition Unix (1979), and 4.3BSD.

For good measure (and because I suppose I am now committed to collecting
cats) also included are Second Edition Unix (in assembly) and Inferno's
implementation (in Limbo) for good measure.

Internet Scale Services Checklist

A checklist for designing and developing internet scale services, inspired by James Hamilton's 2007 paper "On Desgining and Deploying Internet-Scale Services."

• http://mvdirona.com/jrh/talksandpapers/jamesrh_lisa.pdf

Basic tenets

• Does the design expect failures to happen regularly and handle them gracefully?
• Have we kept things as simple as possible?
