var foo = 'Hello, world!';
print(foo); //=> Hello, world!

Business models based on the compiled list at http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4924647. I find the link very hard to browse, so I made a simple version in Markdown instead.

Preserve form values across page loads -- i.e. persistent forms. Uses `localStorage` to persist, `jQuery` for utilities.
var FormRepo = function (namespace) {
/// <summary>Persistent form values, saves to localStorage</summary>
/// <param name="namespace" type="String">the namespace to store values in localStorage</param>
// should also protect per page, since we could have the same forms in various places
this.N = namespace + '.' + window.location.pathname;
};
$.extend(FormRepo.prototype, {
namespace: function (key) {
return this.N + '.' + key;

sanitize_html_class works just fine for a single class But sometimes le wild `<span class="blue hedgehog">` appears, which is when you need this function, to validate both blue and hedgehog, Because sanitize_html_class doesn't allow spaces (because it's meant for a single class)
<?php
if ( ! function_exists( "sanitize_html_classes" ) && function_exists( "sanitize_html_class" ) ) {
/**

JavaScript call() vs apply() vs bind() vs $.proxy()
var fn = function(arg1, arg2) {
var str = '<p>aap ' + this.noot + ' ' + arg1 + ' ' + arg2 + '</p>';
document.body.innerHTML += str;
};
var context = {
'noot': 'noot'
};
var args = ['mies', 'wim'];
// Calls a function with a given 'this' value and arguments provided individually.

This is my template for using Masonry 3 with Bootstrap 3. For those of you who follow this gist a lot has changed since Bootstrap 2.

A lot of people are having issues with com.apple.IconServicesAgent. Since this is a very new issue, Google was no help and `man iconservicesd` is even more hilarious. I eventually fixed it, when I was working on a completely different issue (that is still not fixed). The instructions are below and on the Apple Support Forum, https://discussions.…

I was chasing down another issue (slow "Save As") and thought these two issues may have been related (with QuickLook being the common broken link). Unfortunately, my "Save As" dialog is still miserably slow on the initial load; but IconServicesAgent hasn't gone above 30MB and he rarely makes an appearance in the Console!

Some of these steps may not be necessary, but here are all of the steps I took that inadverdently put IconServicesAgent back in its place. Note: all commands are a single-line, if they appear to be multiple that's just the forum formatting.

  1. Check for any QuickLooks related .plist files. In a terminal: mdfind com.apple.quicklook. -name .plist

  2. I only had files at the system level (specifically within /System/Library/LaunchAgents/). If you have others, modify the directions below to take that into account (re-introducing plist files from the system level back up to the user).

  3. Make some temporary directories to store these plist files, just in case: mkdir ~/tmp-quicklook

Setting up a Github and Bitbucket account on the same computer on Mac OS. Now with a guide for Windows 10.

Setting up github and bitbucket on the same computer (Windows)

Guide for Windows

mix3d asked for some help using this guide with windows so here we go. This was tested with Windows 10. Run all commands in Git Bash once it's installed.

Github will be the main account and bitbucket the secondary.

Git for Windows

  • Download and install Git for Windows
    • In the installer, select everything but decide if you want a desktop icon (2nd step)
