Sass/Less Comparison

In this document I am using Sass's SCSS syntax. You can choose to use the indented syntax in sass, if you prefer it, it has no functional differences from the SCSS syntax.

For Less, I'm using the JavaScript version because this is what they suggest on the website. The ruby version may be different.

Deploying Rails to Linode

Deploying Rails to Linode

Installing Ruby Enterprise Edition, Apache, MySQL, and Passenger for deploying Rails 3.0 applications.

Get a Linode, and set it up with Ubuntu 10.04 LTS so that you have till April 2013 to get updates. Once the Linode is formatted, boot it and continue on.

Set up an 'A' record in your DNS, pointing to the IP of your Linode. I'm using demo.napcs.com here.

OS X service scripts
#!/usr/bin/env ruby -wKU
# Adapted from Brett Terpstra’s original “Markdown to Evernote” service (http://brettterpstra.com/a-better-os-x-system-service-for-evernote-notes-with-multimarkdown/)
# Martin Kopischke 2011 – License: Creative Commons Attribution Share-Alike (CC BY-SA) 3.0 Unported (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/)
# Changes: – create only one Evernote note per (Multi)Markdown input passed (instead of one per line)
# – do not choke on shell escape characters (use Tempfile instead of shell pipe for osascript)
# – default to MultiMarkdown 3 executable (instead of MMD 2 Perl script)
# – make smart typography processing optional (set SMARTY to 'false' to bypass processing;
# note smart typography cannot be disabled in MMD 3.0 and 3.0.1
# – handle both smart typography processing scripts (ie. SmartyPants.pl)
