Look up words using Big Huge Thesaurus API
'''
Command line script used to grab synonyms off the web using a thesaurus api.
The words come from the "Big Huge Thesaurus", and I make no claims about the
results. In order to use this script you will need a valid API key, which is
available, for free (up to 10,000 calls / day), from here - http://words.bighugelabs.com/getkey.php
If you're really lazy, you can just use my key - eb4e57bb2c34032da68dfeb3a0578b68
but I'd rather you didn't. Thanks.

Checkout github pull requests locally

Locate the section for your github remote in the .git/config file. It looks like this:

[remote "origin"]
	fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
	url = git@github.com:joyent/node.git

Now add the line fetch = +refs/pull/*/head:refs/remotes/origin/pr/* to this section. Obviously, change the github url to match your project's URL. It ends up looking like this:

Big list of http static server one-liners

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.

Build your own private, encrypted, open-source Dropbox-esque sync folder

Prerequisites:

  • One or more clients running a UNIX-like OS. Examples are given for Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, although all software components are available for other platforms as well (e.g. OS X). YMMV
  • A cheap Ubuntu 12.04 VPS with storage. I recommend Backupsy, they offer 250GB storage for $5/month. Ask Google for coupon codes.

Software components used:

  • Unison for file synchronization
  • EncFS for folder encryption
