MarkLogic BugTrack automation: Sets the status and fix-in versions. Seems to only work on the Chrome JavaScript console that makes a $ selector function available.
function sel(name, val, $) {Array.prototype.slice.call($("select[name="+name+"]").options).forEach(function(opt) {if(opt.value === val) opt.selected = true;})}; sel("status", "will not fix", $); sel("new-fix-in-version", "", $);

Have the OS speak the selected text from Word. This is a system service in most Mac apps, but not in Office.
tell application "Microsoft Word"
activate
tell selection
set myText to content of text object
end tell
end tell
tell application "System Events"
-- Fork it to another process so it doesn't prevent you from doing other stuff in the foreground in Word
do shell script "echo " & myText & " | say > /dev/null 2>&1 &"

jmakeig / distinct-element-paths.xqy
Created January 8, 2014 22:20
From a random sample of all documents in a MarkLogic database, returns a list of distinct paths to the leaf element whose local name matches a regular expression. You wouldn’t want to do this on the whole database because the XPath is very expensive.
xquery version "1.0-ml";
distinct-values(
cts:search(collection(), cts:and-query(()), ("unfiltered","score-random"))[1 to 100]
//*[matches(local-name(.), "Address$")]/xdmp:path(.)
)
