• On a linux server how do you use multiple terminals over a single ssh connection?

  - by epochwolf

  I often find myself opening several ssh connections in order to view several log files at a time with tail -f. This isn't a problem when I'm at home because I use public key encryption for password-less login. However, I will often use computer at my university to do this so I don't have the option of using my private key. It gets annoying to enter my password 4 or 5 times to get several terminal windows. How can I get multiple terminals over a single connection?

• Load Ruby on Rails models without loading the entire framework

  - by epochwolf

  I'm looking to create a custom daemon that will run various database tasks such as delaying mailings and user notifications (each notice is a separate row in the notifications table). I don't want to use script/runner or rake to do these tasks because it is possible that some of the tasks only require the create of one or two database rows or thousands of rows depending on the task. I don't want the overhead of launching a ruby process or loading the entire rails framework for each operation. I plan to keep this daemon in memory full time. To create this daemon I would like to use my models from my ruby on rails application. I have a number of rails plugins such as acts_as_tree and AASM that I will need loaded if I where to use the models. Some of the plugins I need to load are custom hacks on ActiveRecord::Base that I've created. (I am willing to accept removing or recoding some of the plugins if they need components from other parts of rails.) My questions are Is this a good idea? And - Is this possible to do in a way that doesn't have me manually including each file in my models and plugins? If not a good idea What is a good alternative? (I am not apposed to doing writing my own SQL queries but I would have to add database constraints and a separate user for the daemon to prevent any stupid accidents. Given my lack of familiarity with configuring a database, I would like to use active record as a crutch.)

• Javascript undefined behavior with string.replace

  - by epochwolf

  I've been messing around with string.replace and I noticed something very odd with Webkit and Firebug's javascript consoles. I can repeat this behavior in a blank browser window. (Look at the first and last lines) >>> "/literature?page=".replace(/page=/i, "page=2") "/literature?page=" >>> "/literature?page=".replace("page=", "page=2") "/literature?page=2" >>> "/literature?page=".replace(/page=/, "page=2") "/literature?page=2" >>> "/literature?page=".replace(/page=/i, "page=2") "/literature?page=2" Just so nobody thinks I mistyped something, here are screenshots. Firebug (3.0.14) Webkit (Latest nightly as of this post's creation.)

• Python grab class in class definition.

  - by epochwolf

  I don't even know how to explain this, so here is the code I'm trying. class Test: type = self.__name__ #self doesn't work, how do I get a reference to Test? class Test2(Test): pass #Test2.type should return "Test2" The reason I'm even trying this is I'm working on creating a base class for an orm I'm using. I want to avoid defining the table name for every model I have. Also knowing what the limits of python is will help me avoid wasting time trying impossible things.
