Deploy to `gh-pages` from a `dist` folder on the master branch. Useful for use with [yeoman](http://yeoman.io).

Deploying a subfolder to GitHub Pages

Sometimes you want to have a subdirectory on the master branch be the root directory of a repository’s gh-pages branch. This is useful for things like sites developed with Yeoman, or if you have a Jekyll site contained in the master branch alongside the rest of your code.

For the sake of this example, let’s pretend the subfolder containing your site is named dist.

Step 1

Remove the dist directory from the project’s .gitignore file (it’s ignored by default by Yeoman).

How to permalink to a gist's raw file

Problem: When linking to the raw version of a gist, the link changes with each revision.

Solution:

To return the first file from a gist: https://gist.github.com/[gist_user]/[gist_id]/raw/

To get a file from multi–file gist: https://gist.github.com/[gist_user]/[gist_id]/raw/[file_name]

Inertial Bounce - After Effects Expression by Animoplex
// Inertial Bounce - Created by Animoplex: www.animoplex.com
// Original Version: http://www.graymachine.com/top-5-effects-expressions/
// Modified expression for a smoother bounce effect and easier editing. Use this on any property with two keyframes to get a nice bounce effect that is based on velocity of the value change. Perfect for a scale from 0 to 100 or a speedy rotation that needs some extra life. Adjust amp, freq and decay values to tweak the effect. Amp is intensity, freq is bounces per second, and decay is the speed of decay, slow to fast.
// Full Tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=653lxeVIyoo
amp = 5.0; freq = 2.0; decay = 4.0;
n = 0;
if (numKeys > 0) {
n = nearestKey(time).index;

Using the "service" tool with ADB and why to avoid it

As it turns out, it is not trivial to control the audio volume of an Android device using ADB. At the time of writing, the only way appears to be using the service tool. Actually, the service command allows to "connect" to a number of services (104 on Android 6.0.1) and invoke functions. Not knowing much about this tool, I managed to completely mute all sounds and speakers of my Nexus 5, and I was stuck without any sound for quite some time. I did not find a way to unmute the sound from within the system UI, so I got to dive a little deeper into this.

If you know which service you want to use, you then need to find its interface declaration. The command

service list

gives you a list of all services with the associated interfaces, if applicable:

  • (U+2026), (U+22EF), (U+22EE)는 모두 .(U+002E)가 3번 연속으로 나열된 것과 같은 것으로 봅니다.
  • "한글 음절 문자"는 가(U+AC00) 이상 힣(U+D7A3) 이하의 유니코드 문자들을 의미합니다.

스택

  • 스택의 모든 원소는 유리수 또는 NaN으로 이루어져 있습니다. 분모가 1인 유리수를 편의상 정수라고 칭합니다.
  • NaN은 특수한 숫자처럼 취급됩니다. 어떠한 연산을 하더라도 그 연산에 NaN이 있을 경우 그 연산의 값은 NaN이 됩니다.
