Using rem units in CSS

One pattern I've noticed lately is using rem as a unit of distance in CSS. This seems like a pretty good idea.

.box {
  height: 1.5rem;
  padding: 1rem;
}

Downloading Shared Files on Google Drive Using Curl

When the shared files on Google Drive is downloaded, it is necessary to change the download method by the file size. The boundary of file size when the method is changed is about 40MB.

File size < 40MB

CURL

filename="### filename ###"
fileid="### file ID ###"
curl -L -o ${filename} "https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&amp;id=${fileid}"

Adaptive Streaming has become the neccessity for streaming video and audio. Unfortantely, as of this post, there isn't a whole lot of tutorials that accumulate all of the steps to get this working. Hopefully this post achieves that. This post focuses on using Amazon Web Services (AWS) to transcode for HLS and DASH and be the Content Delivery Network (CDN) that delivers the stream to your web page. We'll be using Video.js for the HTML5 player as well as javascript support libaries to make Video.js work with HLS and DASH.

So Here's what you need:

Set up three S3 buckets

patch-edid.rb

A script to fix EDID problems on external monitors in macOS.

Instructions

Connect only the problem display.
Create this directory structure (if it doesn't already exist):

	.select2-container {
	box-sizing: border-box;
	display: inline-block;
	margin: 0;
	position: relative;
	vertical-align: middle
	}
	.select2 {
	/width: calc(100% - 45px) !important;/
	width: 100% !important;

	After automatically updating Postgres to 10.0 via Homebrew, the pg_ctl start command didn't work.
	The error was "The data directory was initialized by PostgreSQL version 9.6, which is not compatible with this version 10.0."

	Database files have to be updated before starting the server, here are the steps that had to be followed:

	# need to have both 9.6.x and latest 10.0 installed, and keep 10.0 as default
	brew unlink postgresql
	brew install postgresql@9.6
	brew unlink postgresql@9.6
	brew link postgresql

	require 'benchmark'

	def it_fibonacci(n)
	fib_arr = [0,1]
	(2..(n.to_i) - 1).each do \|x\|
	fib_arr << fib_arr[x-1] + fib_arr[x-2]
	end
	return fib_arr
	end

	After automatically updating Postgres to 9.6.1 via Homebrew, the pg_ctl start command didn't work.
	The error was something like "database files are incompatible with server".

	Database files have to be updated before starting the server, here are the steps that had to be followed:

	# need to have both 9.6.1 and latest 9.5.x installed, and keep 9.6.1 as default
	brew unlink postgresql
	brew install postgresql95
	brew unlink postgresql95
	brew link postgresql

	require 'RMagick'
	require 'fileutils'

	#color parser from https://gist.github.com/edouard/1787879
	TOP_N = 10 # Number of swatches
	def sort_by_decreasing_frequency(img)
	hist = img.color_histogram
	sorted = hist.keys.sort_by {\|p\| -hist[p]}
	new_img = Magick::Image.new(hist.size, 1)

	def delete_failed_job_if
	redis = Resque.redis

	(0...Resque::Failure.count).each do \|i\|
	string = redis.lindex(:failed, i)
	break if string.nil?

	job = Resque.decode(string)
	should_delete_job = yield job
	next unless should_delete_job
