Python script to find the largest files in a git repository.
#!/usr/bin/python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
# Python script to find the largest files in a git repository.
# The general method is based on the script in this blog post:
# http://stubbisms.wordpress.com/2009/07/10/git-script-to-show-largest-pack-objects-and-trim-your-waist-line/
#
# The above script worked for me, but was very slow on my 11GB repository. This version has a bunch
# of changes to speed things up to a more reasonable time. It takes less than a minute on repos with 250K objects.

Find unused SCSS variables. Usage: `./find-unused-sass-variables.sh sassDir/`
#!/usr/bin/env bash
#
# Approach:
# 1. Find variable declaration in the form of "$my-var: anyvalue"
# 2. Loop through found variables and find occurrences of each variable in all sass files
# 3. Filter out vars that occurred only once

Snow in canvas land

Other people's code is awful, and your own code from months previous counts as someone else's. With this and the festive spirit in mind, I dug up a canvas snow demo I made two years ago to see how bad my code really was.

Turns out the performance landscape has changed quite a bit, but after applying a couple of workarounds, best practices, and memory management, I got the demo running smoother than it ever did.

Ugh, I can't believe I just wrote "performance landscape". Anyway...

How does the demo work?
