Convert values between RGB hex codes and xterm-256 color codes.

""" Convert values between RGB hex codes and xterm-256 color codes.
Nice long listing of all 256 colors and their codes. Useful for
developing console color themes, or even script output schemes.

Download a cacert.pem for RailsInstaller

Why?

There is a long standing issue in Ruby where the net/http library by default does not check the validity of an SSL certificate during a TLS handshake. Rather than deal with the underlying problem (a missing certificate authority, a self-signed certificate, etc.) one tends to see bad hacks everywhere. This can lead to problems down the road.

From what I can see the OpenSSL library that Rails Installer delivers has no certificate authorities defined. So, let's go fetch some from the curl website. And since this is for ruby, why don't we download and install the file with a ruby script?

Installation

The Ruby Way! (Fun)

Apache log analysis with Hadoop, Hive and HBase
-- This is a Hive program. Hive is an SQL-like language that compiles
-- into Hadoop Map/Reduce jobs. It's very popular among analysts at
-- Facebook, because it allows them to query enormous Hadoop data
-- stores using a language much like SQL.
-- Our logs are stored on the Hadoop Distributed File System, in the
-- directory /logs/randomhacks.net/access. They're ordinary Apache
-- logs in *.gz format.
--
-- We want to pretend that these gzipped log files are a database table,
