Git credential cache, why type password again and again

Tired of entering passwords again and again ?

Run this command to remember your password:

git config --global credential.helper 'cache --timeout 28800'

Above command will tell git to cache your password for 8 hours.

Extracting / Exporting custom emoji from Slack

Extracting Emoji From Slack!

Slack doesn't provide an easy way to extract custom emoji from a team. (Especially teams with thousands of custom emoji) This Gist walks you through a relatively simple approach to get your emoji out.

If you're an admin of your own team, you can get the list of emoji directly using this API: https://api.slack.com/methods/emoji.list. Once you have it, skip to Step 3

HOWEVER! This gist is intended for people who don't have admin access, nor access tokens for using that list.

Follow along...

An example "always" behavior for ES6 promises. This only works if you do not create / return intermediate promises.
// A thing I want to do
// This flow only involves **one** promise, for example an ajax call
// None of the subsequent `then` or `catch` calls, return new promises.
var explode = false;
var promise = new Promise(function(resolve, reject) {
if (explode) {
