Run chrome in its own memory-limited cgroup
Ugly hack to run chrome in a memory-limited cgroup so it does not kill your workstation
when it tries to consume all available memory.
Put this in /usr/local/bin/cchrome, add that to whatever menu system you are using.
You can verify it worked by running:
grep memory `ps ax | grep chrome | grep -v grep | awk '{printf "/proc/%s/cgroup\n", $1}'`
This has only been tested on kubuntu desktop. Obviously, if you have not enabled
passwordless-sudo for yourself, create and chmod the cgroup directory from some

Demonstrate how vector<bool> uses much less space than one byte per entry
// * compile without optimization
// * run an inferior shell
// * type limit -d 2048 to restrict the data segment to 2 megs
// * ./a.out

Hacky way of breaking out of an inner loop. Definitely better than having a flag and testing it.
class _iloop(Exception):
pass
try:
for i in range(2, 10):
for j in range(2, 10):
if i == j * j:
raise _iloop
print(i, j)
except _iloop:

Setting up ISC dhclient on debian / ubuntu for prefix delegation

My ISP (Time Warner Cable) hands out IPv6 addresses with DHCPv6; it will delegate a /56 if asked. So long as I keep refreshing the lease, it won't renumber me. I have my cable modem set to bridge, and do all the firewalling, NATing, etc., on a Debian box. In what follows, eth0 is the internal interface.

The dhclient that ships with debian/ubuntu does not support asking for a prefix delegation, so I had to build one from sources.
