Speed up zsh compinit by only checking cache once a day.
# On slow systems, checking the cached .zcompdump file to see if it must be
# regenerated adds a noticable delay to zsh startup. This little hack restricts
# it to once a day. It should be pasted into your own completion file.
#
# The globbing is a little complicated here:
# - '#q' is an explicit glob qualifier that makes globbing work within zsh's [[ ]] construct.
# - 'N' makes the glob pattern evaluate to nothing when it doesn't match (rather than throw a globbing error)
# - '.' matches "regular files"
# - 'mh+24' matches files (or directories or whatever) that are older than 24 hours.

Promise protips - stuff I wish I had known when I started with Promises
// Promise.all is good for executing many promises at once
Promise.all([
promise1,

// Promise.resolve is good for wrapping synchronous code
Promise.resolve().then(function () {

Makes a device show up in spotify connect devices list, but nothing else yet

#Python Script Setup

To get the python script running, run either pip install flask or pip install -r requirements.txt if you used git clone to clone the gist

#libspotify_embedded_shared.so notes

##Using the library (still in progress) There's a compile.sh that compiles a program that calls SpInit(), but doesn't get any farther because it needs more than just the API version number (which is 4)

##Spotify appkey

A CSS pseudo-element is used to style specified parts of an element. In some cases you can style native HTML controls with vendor specific pseudo-elements. Here you will find an list of cross browser specific pseudo-element selectors.

Styling native elements

Native HTML controls are a challenge to style. You can style any element in the web platform that uses Shadow DOM with a pseudo element ::pseudo-element or the /deep/ path selector.

video::webkit-media-controls-timeline {
  background-color: lime;
}

video /deep/ input[type=range] {

A sham that will throw a window resize event even when scrollbars are added/removed (this is not something the standard window resize event does). Tested in IE9+, Chrome & Firefox latest.
// Demo: http://jsfiddle.net/pFaSx/
// Create an invisible iframe
var iframe = document.createElement('iframe');
iframe.id = "hacky-scrollbar-resize-listener";
iframe.style.cssText = 'height: 0; background-color: transparent; margin: 0; padding: 0; overflow: hidden; border-width: 0; position: absolute; width: 100%;';
// Register our event when the iframe loads
iframe.onload = function() {
// The trick here is that because this iframe has 100% width
