Trying to figure out how to scale the fonts globally on a dashboard at work, and I stumbled upon this great tip! http://superuser.com/a/635447/283081
/* Using this, a web page designed for a 720p screen can be simply scaled up to 1080p (or vice-versa) */
/* This works especially well when the graphics are SVG and or icon fonts */
body { zoom: 1.5;} /* 1280 * 1.5 = 1920

Undocumented YouTube thumbnail size. It seems to include some sort of signature.

Here's a little trick for cloning into an existing directory. The long and short of it is that you're checking the project out into a temp folder, then moving the git directory, and then resetting to the head.
# From: http://stackoverflow.com/a/2484349/24559
git clone --no-checkout repo-to-clone existing-dir/existing-dir.tmp
mv existing-dir/existing-dir.tmp/.git existing-dir/
rmdir existing-dir/existing-dir.tmp
cd existing-dir
git reset --hard HEAD # git thinks all files are deleted, this reverses that behaviour

Average file size within a directory. http://vivekjain10.blogspot.com/2008/02/average-file-size-within-directory.html
# To calculate the average file size within a directory:
ls -l | gawk '{sum += $5; n++;} END {print sum/n;}'
# If you'd like to know the average size of some particular kind of file:
ls -l *.jpg | gawk '{sum += $5; n++;} END {print sum/n;}'
