Firstly, if you don’t yet have an artifacts bucket for GCR then you will need to you need to push an image to the registry to create the storage account. This can be anything (e.g. busybox) and can ideally be done with a project owner or editor. $ gsutil ls 'gs://artifacts.*' < no output > $ gcloud auth configure-docker $ docker pull busybox:latest $ docker tag busybox:latest gcr.io/<PROJ_ID>/busybox $ docker push gcr.

These are some of my notes on trying to understand Inheritance and Polymorphism in C++.

The following code is for encrypting short messages (it acts on byte arrays and not streams so the whole message needs to fit in memory). It creates a random Initialisation Vector (IV) for each message which is prepended to the start of the encrypted stream.

This is mainly here for my copying and pasting for a new Java project.

The gradle deps bring the SLF4J API in to the compile time classpath and the LOG4J implementation in to the runtime. If you wanted to compile the log4j implementation in to your code base (e.g. building an application and not a library), you would need to move it into the compile list.

This is how to store sensitive information (e.g. SSL key passphrases) in a GPG encrypted file with multiple recipients. If you’re using git to store the file (which you probably should be), always do a git pull before doing any changes. These files are binary and therefore merges are very difficult otherwise.

The cleanest way I’ve found so far to encode/decode between base36 and integers in Python. The primary purpose of this was to write a url shortener based on looking up a numbered url from a database.
