Create a Gource visualization of the Rails codebase as it crosses into GitHub land...
# On a Mac
# brew install gource (http://code.google.com/p/gource/)
# brew install ffmpeg
# git clone https://github.com/rails/rails.git
# In the rails code directory, run this to see the same visualization
gource --hide bloom,files,filenames,dirnames --auto-skip-seconds 0.3 --seconds-per-day 0.003 --date-format "%B %Y" --start-position 0.2 --stop-position 0.45 --file-idle-time 10 --stop-at-end -1024x768
# Or do this to save it to a reusable video:
gource --hide bloom,files,filenames,dirnames --auto-skip-seconds 0.3 --seconds-per-day 0.003 --date-format "%B %Y" --start-position 0.2 --stop-position 0.45 --file-idle-time 10 --stop-at-end -1024x768 -o - | ffmpeg -y -b 3000K -r 60 -f image2pipe -vcodec ppm -i - -vcodec libx264 -vpre slow -threads 0 rails-on-github.mp4

timshadel / alias-bundle-exec.bash
Created September 22, 2011 05:04
Ideas for eliminating 'bundle exec' when using rbenv
#!/usr/bin/env bash
#
# Put this in ~/.rbenv/rbenv.d/init/
# Based in part on http://twistedmind.com/bundle-exec-bash-shortcut
# For a completely different take, see https://github.com/carsomyr/rbenv-bundler
#
# Slower. More correct? Choosing faster one for now.
# echo bundled_bins=\(`rbenv exec ruby -rbundler/setup -e 'puts Bundler.rubygems.all_specs.map{|s| s.executables}.flatten.join(" ")'`\)
# Only aliases executable names of the global Ruby. Cheap way to `rbenv exec` in every version?

Ask curl to connect to localhost, but send the Host header with a different value

$ curl -H "Host: fake.com" http://localhost:8585

curl will hang until you kill the server.
