Acronyms Seriously Suck - Elon Musk

From time to time, Musk will send out an e-mail to the entire company to enforce a new policy or let them know about something that's bothering him. One of the more famous e-mails arrived in May 2010 with the subject line: Acronyms Seriously Suck:

There is a creeping tendency to use made up acronyms at SpaceX. Excessive use of made up acronyms is a significant impediment to communication and keeping communication good as we grow is incredibly important. Individually, a few acronyms here and there may not seem so bad, but if a thousand people are making these up, over time the result will be a huge glossary that we have to issue to new employees. No one can actually remember all these acronyms and people don't want to seem dumb in a meeting, so they just sit there in ignorance. This is particularly tough on new employees.

That needs to stop immediately or I will take drastic action - I have given enough warning over the years. Unless an acronym is approved by me, it should not enter the SpaceX glossary.

Uploading to S3 in 18 lines of Shell (used to upload builds for http://soltrader.net)
# You don't need Fog in Ruby or some other library to upload to S3 -- shell works perfectly fine
# This is how I upload my new Sol Trader builds (http://soltrader.net)

Deploying Elixir's Phoenix Framework on Dokku.

Deploying Phoenix on Dokku

Worked 2015-09-08 for Phoenix 1.0.1 on Dokku 0.3.25.

These instructions assume you've set up Dokku. If not, go find a tutorial for that part. My notes for setting it up on Digital Ocean.

On your local machine, in the app's repo

Create a Dokku app:

#!/usr/bin/env ruby
require 'base64'
require 'nokogiri'
require 'uri'
def main
html = Nokogiri::HTML($stdin.read)
inline_all_images(html)
inline_all_css(html)
