Backbone.js & Underscore.js Natural Sorting

Backbone.js & Underscore.js Natural Sorting Algorithm

Backbone is great but I continually found the default sorting method limited due to the following:

Disc 1, Disc 2, … Disc 10 would become Disc 1, Disc 10, Disc 2

With the help of Jim Palmer's naturalSort.js, I was able to integrate natrual sorting into Backbone.Collection.

Backbone collections are automatically sorted and now, by simply adding sortType:"natural", your collections can be sorted naturally.

How to convert a .pfx SSL certificate to .crt/key (pem) formats. Useful for NGINX
source: http://www.markbrilman.nl/2011/08/howto-convert-a-pfx-to-a-seperate-key-crt-file/
`openssl pkcs12 -in [yourfile.pfx] -nocerts -out [keyfile-encrypted.key]`
What this command does is extract the private key from the .pfx file. Once entered you need to type in the importpassword of the .pfx file. This is the password that you used to protect your keypair when you created your .pfx file. If you cannot remember it anymore you can just throw your .pfx file away, cause you won’t be able to import it again, anywhere!. Once you entered the import password OpenSSL requests you to type in another password, twice!. This new password will protect your .key file.
Now let’s extract the certificate:
`openssl pkcs12 -in [yourfile.pfx] -clcerts -nokeys -out [certificate.crt]`

Let's fix `class` in ES7

Two Simple Changes to Simplify class

I'm not suggesting drastic action. I don't want to break backwards compatibility. I simply want to make the class feature more usable to a broader cross section of the community. I believe there is some low-hanging fruit that can be harvested to that end.

Imagine AutoMaker contained class Car, but the author wants to take advantage of prototypes to enable factory polymorphism in order to dynamically swap out implementation.

Stampit does something similar to this in order to supply information needed to inherit from composable factory functions, known as stamps.

This isn't the only way to achieve this, but it is a convenient way which is compatible with .call(), .apply(), and .bind().
