cssquirrel / filter.out.duplicate.objects.example.js
Created May 6, 2015 19:04
Filter out duplicates in an array of objects using Underscore
// bananas is a complex object
bananas = _.uniq(bananas, function(banana) {
return JSON.stringify(banana);
});
// Caveat: order of properties in an object could be jumbled depending on how objects are created
// In such a case, this trick will not work. To prevent this, consider creating objects using a class-like declaration:
var BananaModel = function(data) {
var self = this;

cssquirrel / annyang.add-commands-with-dynamic-text.js
Created January 17, 2016 18:29
Alternate function for annyang.js that makes it easier to enter commands with dynamically generated text instead of only literal text strings.
// Insert this into annyang.js to have alternate command functionality
/**
* @method addCommandsWithDynamicText
* @param {array of Object} commands
* @param {string} commands[i].phrase - The speech that annyang is listening for to trigger from.
* @param {function or Object} commands[i].callback - If a function, a callback to trigger if the phrase is heard. If an object, it has a callback parameter (which is the function) and a regexp parameter (which contains an optional regexp string to use for the phrase).
* @description An alternate way to give annyang commands that makes it easier to have variables in your code with dynamically generated strings to pass into the phrase, instead of only allowing text like addCommands()

React v16 Components

Here's a quick rundown on what's going on with React v16 components.

Suppose that you are calling a Foo component in your React code like so:

  <Foo name="Fred" />

In earlier versions of React, Foo may have looked something like this, using React.createclass().

How We Record Stardate: Supplemental

How We Record Stardate: Supplemental

Equipment and Software

Each of the Brothers Weems records using a Blue Snowball microphone and Audacity audio software. We also have the free LAME encoder which allows Audacity to export to MP3.

Recording Procedure

We're in our own apartments as we record, each recording our own stream while on Skype together. To later make it easier to sync our tracks, one of us plays a loud buzzer while the other holds headphones to their microphone. Once we're done recording, we export our own soundtracks to MP3 format with 128 kbps, stereo, constant rate sounds.
