Simple Sublime Text 2 plugin to sync local files with remote ones via SCP. A simple workaround for lack of a free SFTP library that could be extended/made more robust.
import sublime, sublime_plugin
import sys
# Sublime has its own embedded Python interpreter -- we need to tell it explicitly
# to find installed 3rd party libraries (like paramiko)
PYTHON_PACKAGES_PATH = '/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages'
sys.path.append(PYTHON_PACKAGES_PATH)
from paramiko import SSHClient
from scp import SCPClient

Notes from a few talks at Pycon

Building Secure Systems -- lvh

  • High level
  • Bugs --> security bugs --> particularly bad
  • "Tools" don't work for security
  • Unit tests don't catch it
  • Using some software...read the docs?
  • Google/SO don't always have best answers
  • Good practice ~= bad practice
  • Process is different in security:
    • Install it

PHP's interpretation of RFC 3339 serialization of a UTC timestamp
<?php
$timezone = new \DateTimeZone('UTC');
$needed_time = new \DateTime('2019-11-06 18:20:56', $timezone);
echo $needed_time->getTimezone()->getName() . "\n";
echo $needed_time->format(DATE_RFC3339) . "\n";
// Output (note the +00:00 instead of "Z")
// UTC

BART Weekday Ridership, by Starting Station (May, 2018)

The above visualization breaks down all weekday rides on BART by their starting station. Clicking on an individual station will zoom in, showing the distribution of destination stations for that starting station.

BART provides monthly ridership data for all stations pairs - i.e. the average number of people who rode from station A to station B. They publish these datasets on their website in .xlsx format. Those files are combined into one flat CSV in a separate repo, which is where the data used in this visualization came from.
