Type this in a terminal window:
Now you can just type git rma and it will stage all unstaged deleted files!
Note: this may not work if your version of xargs doesn't support the -0 flag. It works on OS X Lion, that's all I can guarantee.
Much of this information comes from my pal Beverly, who used to be a lowly Information Systems Technician like me but is now a big shot division officer. :)
IMPORTANT: For most of these, you should bring your military ID or DD-214.
If you know of any more or have any corrections, please put them in the comments and I'll update the post. Otherwise, share this, tweet it, and send it to any active duty or veterans you may know!

This is a quick little haxie to redirect the /+ path on your personal domain to your Google Plus profile, inspired by a post by Daniel Sandler on using .htaccess to do something similar. I'm not super big on the transparent URL thing, so I just did a plain 301 redirect, like so:
First off, you'll need to install the Refraction gem. The line that goes in config/environments/production.rb is incorrect (at least for Rails 3), so use this instead:
After that, toss this in config/initializers/refraction_rules.rb (or similar):
Make sure you replace the URL to my profile with the URL to yours. Now you're thinking with Circles™!
Note: You can also do this with Tumblr.
Refraction is also handy for doing www redirects :)
Just whipped this up, enjoy! Fetches the latest price info from http://mtgox.com. Put it in plugins/bitcoin.rb and then add it to the plugin list in config.yml.

Reminds me of when my friend Dylan Owens figured out how to deconstruct barcodes in 8th grade (he even figured out the checksum). He makes robotic submarines now. :)
