"Scar Tissues Make Relationships Wear Out"

04/26/2103. From a lecture by Professor John Ousterhout at Stanford, class CS142.

This is my most touchy-feely thought for the weekend. Here’s the basic idea: It’s really hard to build relationships that last for a long time. If you haven’t discovered this, you will discover this sooner or later. And it's hard both for personal relationships and for business relationships. And to me, it's pretty amazing that two people can stay married for 25 years without killing each other.

[Laughter]

> But honestly, most professional relationships don't last anywhere near that long. The best bands always seem to break up after 2 or 3 years. And business partnerships fall apart, and there's all these problems in these relationships that just don't last. So, why is that? Well, in my view, it’s relationships don't fail because there some single catastrophic event to destroy them, although often there is a single catastrophic event around the the end of the relation

Requirements

• no upfront installation/agents on remote/slave machines - ssh should be enough
• application components should use third-party software, e.g. HDFS, Spark's cluster, deployed separately
• configuration templating
• environment requires/asserts, i.e. we need a JVM in a given version before doing deployment
• deployment process run from Jenkins

Solution

#!/bin/bash

#  update_build_number.sh
#  Usage: `update_build_number.sh [branch]`
#  Run this script after the 'Copy Bundle Resources' build phase
#  Ref: http://tgoode.com/2014/06/05/sensible-way-increment-bundle-version-cfbundleversion-xcode/

branch=${1:-'master'}
buildNumber=$(expr $(git rev-list $branch --count) - $(git rev-list HEAD..$branch --count))
echo "Updating build number to $buildNumber using branch '$branch'."

Work in progress, I'll write this up properly when I'm done.

Almost all credit goes to @maxogden for putting me on to this and pointing me in the right direction for each of these items.

Prerequisites:

• Raspberry Pi
• Kindle Paperwhite freed from its locked down state (jailbroken) http://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=198446
  • You have to downgrade your Kindle to 5.3.1 to install the current jailbreak; that's just a matter of getting the old version image, putting it on your Kindle via USB and telling it to install "upgrade". Then you put in the Jailbreak files, load the ebook and break.
• Your kindle will be quick to detect an upgrade is available so it'll want to upgrade soon afterwards but the jailbreak will last but you have to reinstall the developer certificates so it's a bit of a pain but doable. Find all the instructions on the mobileread.com forums and wiki.

These two files should help you to import passwords from mac OS X keychains to 1password.

Assumptions:
1) You have some experience with scripting/are a power-user. These scripts worked for me
   but they haven't been extensively tested and if they don't work, you're on your own!
   Please read this whole document before starting this process. If any of it seems
   incomprehensible/frightening/over your head please do not use these scripts. You will
   probably do something Very Bad and I wouldn't want that.
2) You have ruby 1.9.2 installed on your machine. This comes as standard with Lion, previous
   versions of OS X may have earlier versions of ruby, which *may* work, but then again, they
