eoinkelly / allib-get-image-info.php
Created April 13, 2012 06:40
A simple wrapper function to make retrieving information about a WordPress attachment nicer.
<?php
/* Retrieve information about WordPress images without the chaos.
You have to remember a bunch of different functions to get info about images in the
Media Library so I collected their functionality under one wrapper with a (hopefully)
nice interface. This function tries to avoid fetching unnecessary info whenever it can.
I have limited the granularity of the API to not allow fetching different info
about each available image size. I think that would make using this function
more fiddly without any great benefit.

eoinkelly / rubies-on-windows-compared.md
Created October 14, 2012 23:31
Comparing Windows MRI 1.9.3, jRuby 1.7.0 RC, Linux MRI 1.9.3

Test Setup

  • All tests run on same machine: Dell Studio XPS 16 Laptop running Windows 7 x64
  • Same codebase except jRuby does use different sqlite adaptor (you cannot use the standard one with jRuby)
  • Code has 4 unit tests (incl. 21 assertions) that all pass.
  • Code is the example app from Agile Web Development with Rails

Goals

  • I wanted to find the fastest way to run my rails tests on my laptop.

# Want to pass in a hash or instance of object. Was hoping to avoid is_a? or creating a new object but
# think that can only be done with is_a? or overriding new. Also, I might be missing the point as
# avoiding is_a? should mean I am using Duck Typing but if I'm using Duck Typing then I shouldn't be
# checking object equality anyway. See RSpec test for details.

Last active August 29, 2015 14:01
A test-drive of the Ember Inspector promises tab
// # How to use this:
//
// 1. Open the Ember Inspector on an Ember app (so Ember is loaded)
// 2. Hit the 'clear' button on the Promises tab to remove any promises from the app itself
// 3. Paste this code into the console and watch how the promises inspector displays it
// 4. Twiddle, Rinse & repeat
// 5. More info at
// * https://github.com/kriskowal/q/blob/v1/design/README.js (great for understanding promises)
// * http://emberjs.com/api/classes/Ember.RSVP.Promise.html (Ember promise implementation specifics)

Last active February 7, 2021 08:04
Some console output to help you visualise stacking contexts on a page
/*
Usage:
* Paste this into your dev tools console (or even better as a snippet)
* It will parse the page and find all the things that create a new stacking context
and dump some info about them to the console. It will also outline them on the page.
* This is pretty rough and probably misses heaps of bugs and edge cases.
