Keep an installation alive with launchd & launchctl
Add this .plist to ~/Library/LaunchAgents to have it automatically
take effect whenever you log in. It will continue to be active until
you log out (even if you delete the file).
You can take manual control over it instead by putting the file
anywhere else, then using launchctl like this:
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
launchctl load path/to/the/plist/com.admsyn.keep-twitter-alive.plist

Example of creating an animated GIF on iOS, with no 3rd-party code required. This should also be easy to port to OS X.

A very simple random generator. A miner can influence the number by not publishing a block with an unwanted outcome, and forfeiting the 5 block reward.
contract random {
/* Generates a random number from 0 to 100 based on the last block hash */
function randomGen(uint seed) constant returns (uint randomNumber) {
return(uint(sha3(block.blockhash(block.number-1), seed ))%100);
}
/* generates a number from 0 to 2^n based on the last n blocks */
function multiBlockRandomGen(uint seed, uint size) constant returns (uint randomNumber) {
uint n = 0;
for (uint i = 0; i < size; i++){

Installing Python 3.6 on Raspbian

Installing Python 3.6 on Raspbian

As of January 2018, Raspbian does not yet include the latest Python release, Python 3.6. This means we will have to build it ourselves, and here is how to do it. There is also an ansible role attached that automates it all for you.

  1. Install the required build-tools (some might already be installed on your system).
