Binary Conversion Charts

I have recently been reading through Write Great Code, Volume 1 by Randall Hyde and he had 2 useful charts I've seen before, but I haven't seen them in a long while so I figured I'd drop there here for my future reference.
Binary | Hexadecimal |
---|---|
%0000 | $0 |
%0001 | $1 |
%0010 | $2 |
%0011 | $3 |
Setting up FoxyProxy

To add a new proxy connection you'll need 2 things. An actual proxy (which we will set up using ssh) and an entry in FoxyProxy. We will set up the FoxyProxy connection first, then the SSH connection.
Go into the settings for FoxyProxy and click the "Add New Proxy" button.
Vodka induced Racism, LBwhatever, Sexism...

I pre-empt this mild & catatonic racial etc discussion and state I've had a glass of vodka and I'm an Aquarius. Yes I'm white, stupid, a complete ass, & I don't care if you're green or purple. If I say something that offends you I'm sorry. It's quite possible that I'm vodka challenged at the moment and can't quite phrase what I meant correctly. Please give me the benefit of the doubt and realize I simply put my foot in my mouth due to vodka and not because I purposefully meant some insult...
Preparation

I went from watching The Walking Dead to watching Survivors (from BBC) to watching The Colony (Discovery Channel). Yet another predicted end of the world is supposed to happen this month. Looking back over the last couple of years has already made me think of the great R.E.M. song It's The End Of The World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine). The '90s are over, the 2000s are over, it's now the '10s. Survivalism fascinates me (Bear Grylls can suck it, Les Stroud is the man) and looking at the recent disaster of hurricane Sandy I feel the need to join the crowd thumbing my nose at those affected.
PMD - Finding copied and pasted code

A great way to find duplicate code. Has built in handlers for Java, JSP, C, C++, Fortran and PHP and has instructions on how to add a handler for your favorite language if it's not included.
