Ramblings of a Code Monger

.merbrc

Add the following to ~/.irbrc
load File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/.merbrc' if $0 =~ /merb/

To give yourself a fancy .merbrc =)

Back to Colloquy

I tried. I really did. I gave Linkinus more than enough chances, until they get their shit together, I’m sticking with Colloquy.

silly little thin server

Cameron — Mon, 14 Apr 2008 03:47:20 +0000

w( rubygems rack thin ).each { |moo| require moo } run lambda { |env| [200, { 'Content-Type' => 'text/plain' }, [`fortune -o | cowsay`]] }

$ thin start -a 127.0.0.1 -d -r cowthink.ru

So I -don’t- forget

On your server/VPS/file server/awesomesauce
$ sudo mkdir -i /var/git $ sudo chmod -R 1775 /var/git $ cd /var/git $ mkdir project.git $ cd project.git $ git --bare init $ exit

On your workstation
$ cd ~/Projects # this is where I keep my stuff, so YMMV $ mkdir new-project $ git init $ touch README $ echo "Hello, and welcome to git!" > README $ git add README $ git commit -a -m "Hello World!" $ git remote add origin user@server:/var/git/project.git $ git push origin master

For read-only pulls, look into git over HTTP or setup git-daemon. It’s not very hard.

Goodbye Typepad, Hello Wankpress…

Cameron — Mon, 31 Mar 2008 03:20:01 +0000

Moving the blog around, yet again, as honestly, Typepad isn’t worth the $14/month, since its basically a crippled MovableType platform. Maybe i’ll blog some more. Maybe, maybe not.. Hopefully I managed to point all the old URI’s to wordpress.com

Dear Sprint

Cameron — Mon, 17 Mar 2008 12:16:23 +0000

Dear Sprint…Seriously, what the hell? I want to pay my bill, give you money. But alas, after going jumping through the hoops to “upgrade” my Sprint.com account so I can login, … I can’t login? What the hell is with that? I get no useful errors, I just get redirected back to the login page… Which is TOTALLY unhelpful…If I thought Customer Service wasn’t a fucking joke, (which it is) I might call and be like “WTF? I can’t pay my bill.” But, alas, Customer Service at Sprint is some kind of joke…So, long story short. I want a divorce.

NIN:Ghosts

Cameron — Mon, 03 Mar 2008 17:48:23 +0000

So… I bought NIN:Ghosts I-IV… now, it would be great if I could fucking listen to the download… but, someone decided to skimp on hardware.Hint: invest in some decent hardware for nin.com, seriously… I’m using curl to download this, what the hell?

github, wanna invite? I’ve got 5 4 1.

Cameron — Wed, 27 Feb 2008 22:16:57 +0000

I’ve got 5 4 1 github invites up for grabs, if you want ~~one~~ it, e-mail me at greetings+github@cameroncox.com.

Tagging w/ Typepad?

Cameron — Sat, 26 Jan 2008 08:52:00 +0000

Ok, seriously, I like Typepad, but it needs proper tagging, not this Technorati Tags crap…

New URI

Cameron — Fri, 25 Jan 2008 00:25:37 +0000

For anyone that’s noticed… the blog has moved from cameroncox.com/blog/ to blog.cameroncox.com since i’m hosting it with TypePad now
