Sass/Less Comparison

In this document I am using Sass's SCSS syntax. You can choose to use the indented syntax in sass, if you prefer it, it has no functional differences from the SCSS syntax.

For less, I'm using the ruby version because this is what they suggest on the website. The javascript version may be different.

  def handle_gzip_params
    #  When the server receives a request with content-type "gzip/json" this will be called which will unzip it,
    #   and then parse it as json
    #  The use case is so clients such as Android or Iphone can zip their long request such as Inviters#addressbook emails
    #  Then the server can unpack the request and parse the parameters as normal.

    if request.content_type == "gzip/json"
      data = ActiveSupport::JSON.decode(ActiveSupport::Gzip.decompress(request.raw_post))
      data = {:_json => data} unless data.is_a?(Hash)
      params ||= {}

# Ruby Thread Pool
# ================
# A thread pool is useful when you wish to do some work in a thread, but do
# not know how much work you will be doing in advance. Spawning one thread
# for each task is potentially expensive, as threads are not free.
# 
# In this case, it might be more beneficial to start a predefined set of
# threads and then hand off work to them as it becomes available. This is
# the pure essence of what a thread pool is: an array of threads, all just
# waiting to do some work for you!

libnfc supports UUID writable cards and even has some dedicated tools for them.

However it doesn't work with some of the cards found on eBay that are even simpler to use. Sector 0 is unlocked and can be written without any additional commands. libnfc requires a small patch to get it working.

Following has been tested under ArchLinux with modified libnfc 1.5.1, mfoc 0.10.2 and a SCL3711 dongle.

Patch & recompile libnfc

The patch is fairly simple, open libnfc-1.5.1/utils/nfc-mfclassic.c and comment 2 lines (it was lines 384 and 385 for me):

// Try to write the trailer

Each of these commands will run an ad hoc http static server in your current (or specified) directory, available at http://localhost:8000. Use this power wisely.
