Javascript function debounce and throttle

Difference between Debounce and Throttle

Debounce

Debounce a function when you want it to execute only once after a defined interval of time. If the event occurs multiple times within the interval, the interval is reset each time.
Example A user is typing into an input field and you want to execute a function, such as a call to the server, only when the user stops typing for a certain interval, such as 500ms.

Throttle

Better local require() paths for Node.js

Better local require() paths for Node.js

Problem

When the directory structure of your Node.js application (not library!) has some depth, you end up with a lot of annoying relative paths in your require calls like:

const Article = require('../../../../app/models/article');

Those suck for maintenance and they're ugly.

Possible solutions

Bare minimum Chrome extension to inject a JS file into the given page when you click on the browser action icon. The script then inserts a new div into the DOM.
// this is the background code...
// listen for our browerAction to be clicked
chrome.browserAction.onClicked.addListener(function (tab) {
// for the current tab, inject the "inject.js" file & execute it
chrome.tabs.executeScript(tab.ib, {
file: 'inject.js'
});
});

An Alfred 2 workflow to let me jump directly to jsbin issues, either by issue number, searching issues or creating new issues. Make sure to change to your own repo. Also, disclaimer, I don't write or use ruby, so this is pretty much just clobbered together.
# change this...unless you're in to jsbin issues :)
repo = "remy/jsbin"
require 'cgi'
v = ARGV[0] || "{query}"
url = "";
text = "";
if v.to_s =~ /\A[-+]?\d*\.?\d+\z/ || v == "new"
url = "https://github.com/#{repo}/issues/#{v}"
text = "Open #{v}"

Markdown pro tip: long numbered list made easier
  1. One
  • Two
  • Three
  • Four
  • Five

But really easy to re-sort because the items aren't really numbered:
