Clay Shirky: Institutions vs. collaboration
Monday, July 14, 2008
This is a rather interesting talk that takes some very foundational ideas from open source software development, P2P networks, and social networking and implies that these paradigms can apply to a lot more.
If I have seen further, it is by standing on the shoulders of giants.

Misc ScriptsInsert Code...
A simple BASH script that dynamically inserts headers such at copyright information and disclaimers in source files.
1) Inserts a header file into all files with the given extension.
2) Does so recursively.
3) Won't insert it if the header already exists.
4) Variables in the format %VARIABLE% are replaced in the header.
4-1) Replaces predefined variables in the header:
FILENAME (just file name)
FILEPATH (full file path)
TIME (06:11:43 PM)
DATE (2005-03-04)
4-2) Replaces user defined variables in the header. This includes
anything defined on the command line as an option in the
format --VARIABLE=VALUE and evaluates %VARIABLE% to VALUE in the
header.
