Instructions on how to reset the autonomous desk. This fixes a problem where the desk will not lower (also reportedly fixes incorrectly reported heights).

Reset Steps:
1. Unplug the desk for 20 seconds. Plug it back in. Wait a full 20 seconds.
2. Press the up and down buttons until the desk lowers all the way and beeps or 20 seconds pass.
3. Release both buttons.
4. Press the down buttons until the desk beeps one more time or 20 seconds pass.

How to get a stack trace from a stuck/hanging python script

How to get a stack trace for each thread in a running python script

Sometimes a python script will simply hang forever with no indication of where things went wrong. Perhaps it's polling a service that will never return a value that allows the program to move forward. Here's a way to see where the program is currently stuck.

Install gdb and pyrasite

How effectively delete a git submodule.

To remove a submodule you need to:

  • Delete the relevant section from the .gitmodules file.
  • Stage the .gitmodules changes git add .gitmodules
  • Delete the relevant section from .git/config.
  • Run git rm --cached path_to_submodule (no trailing slash).
  • Run rm -rf .git/modules/path_to_submodule (no trailing slash).
  • Commit git commit -m "Removed submodule "
  • Delete the now untracked submodule files rm -rf path_to_submodule

List mongodb collections in descending order of size. Helpful for finding largest collections. First number is "size," second is "storageSize."
var collectionNames = db.getCollectionNames(), stats = [];
collectionNames.forEach(function (n) { stats.push(db[n].stats()); });
stats = stats.sort(function(a, b) { return b['size'] - a['size']; });
for (var c in stats) { print(stats[c]['ns'] + ": " + stats[c]['size'] + " (" + stats[c]['storageSize'] + ")"); }
