Nyan Cat emoticon bindings for Conkeror.
/*
Google now uses "~=[,,_,,]:3" as an emoticon for Nyan Cat animation
on Google Plus. It's handy to have this character sequence bound to
a key. Thanks to Benjamin Slade for the idea.
Nyan Cat is bound by default to "N". As it is to be used when
editing a text field, you'll need to use "C-z" first, so the
sequence is: "C-z N".
Quick hack based on Conkeror source code; namely,

Using JavaScript modules in ClojureScript

Using JavaScript Libraries from ClojureScript

Using JavaScript libraries from ClojureScript involves two distinct concerns:

  1. Packaging the code and delivering it to the browser
  2. Making ClojureScript code that accesses JavaScript libraries safe for advanced optimization

Right now, the only single tool that solves these probems reliably, optimally, and with minimal configuration is shadow-cljs, and so that is what I favor. In paricular, shadow-cljs lets you install npm modules using npm or yarn and uses the resulting package.json to bundle external dependencies. Below I describe why, what alternatives there are, and what solutions I disfavor at this time.

Packaging and Delivering Code

'Users hate change'

'Users hate change'

This week NN Group released a video by Jakob Nielsen in which he attempts to help designers deal with the problem of customers being resistant to their new site/product redesign. The argument goes thusly:

  1. Humans naturally resist change
  2. Your change is for the better
  3. Customers should just get used to it and stop complaining

There's slightly more to it than that, he caveats his argument with requiring you to have of course followed their best practices on product design, and allows for a period of customers being able to elect to continue to use the old site, although he says this is obviously only a temporary solution as you don't want to support both.
