Automatically disable Wifi when an Ethernet connection (cable) is plugged in on a Mac

Overview

This is a bash script that will automatically turn your wifi off if you connect your computer to an ethernet connection and turn wifi back on when you unplug your ethernet cable/adapter. If you decide to turn wifi on for whatever reason, it will remember that choice. This was improvised from this mac hint to work with Yosemite, and without hard-coding the adapter names. It's supposed to support growl, but I didn't check that part. I did, however, add OSX notification center support. Feel free to fork and fix any issues you encounter.

Most the credit for these changes go to Dave Holland.

Requirements

  • Mac OSX 10+
  • Administrator privileges

Using Jemalloc 5 with Ruby.md

For years, people have been using jemalloc with ruby. There were various benchmarks and discussions. Legend had it that Jemalloc 5 didn't work as well as Jemalloc 3.

Then, one day, hope appeared on the horizon. @wjordan offered a config for Jemalloc 5.

a simple git branching model

a simple git branching model (written in 2013)

This is a very simple git workflow. It (and variants) is in use by many people. I settled on it after using it very effectively at Athena. GitHub does something similar; Zach Holman mentioned it in this talk.

Update: Woah, thanks for all the attention. Didn't expect this simple rant to get popular.

class ActionDispatch::Routing::Mapper
def draw(routes_name)
instance_eval(File.read(Rails.root.join("config/routes/#{routes_name}.rb")))
end
end
BCX::Application.routes.draw do
draw :api
draw :account
draw :session

If you import live data into Google Docs spreadsheets using the importdata function and you want to force a refresh at a certain interval, but you also want to ensure that some cache-busting goes on, append a querystring that's the epoch time value that the refresh occurs, so for a sheet that should grab new data every hour you could force an update like this:

importData("http://example.com/data.csv?" & hour(googleclock()) & ")")

But the url requested looks like this: http://example.com/data.csv?11 if the refresh happened at 11am. The next day at 11, the url will be the same, so there's a chance you may get cached data. To get around this, use an epoch time-based refresh. The formula:

=((date(year(googleclock()),month(googleclock()),day(googleclock())) & " " & time(hour(googleclock()), 0, 0)) - DATE( 1970;1;1))*86400

gives you the epoch timestamp for the time at the current hour. If you wanted the timest
