# Utilities for quickly accessing frequently used directories in bash.

# Usage:
#   $ cd /path/to/project/src/
#   $ mark code     # Will create a new shortcut.
#                   # Becomes interactive if a shortcut already exists
#                   # m is an alias for mark. You can also `m code`
#
#   $ code          # From now on, running this anywhere in the shell
#                   # will put you in /path/to/project/src/code

Latency numbers every programmer should know

L1 cache reference ......................... 0.5 ns
Branch mispredict ............................ 5 ns
L2 cache reference ........................... 7 ns
Mutex lock/unlock ........................... 25 ns
Main memory reference ...................... 100 ns             
Compress 1K bytes with Zippy ............. 3,000 ns  =   3 µs
Send 2K bytes over 1 Gbps network ....... 20,000 ns  =  20 µs
SSD random read ........................ 150,000 ns  = 150 µs

Read 1 MB sequentially from memory ..... 250,000 ns = 250 µs

# OfflineIMAP config for GMail backup (only tested on OS X)
# Save it as ~/.offlineimaprc
# NB: this will sync *everything*, including All Mail, Spam, Bin, etc.

[general]
metadata = ~/.offlineimap 
accounts = GMail
maxsyncaccounts = 1
# You might want to change the below to ui = TTY.TTYUI the first time you run offlineimap
# It can choke on large attachments and GMail might reset the connection if you download too much
