VSCode config to disable popular extensions' annoyances (telemetry, notifications, welcome pages, etc.)
// I'm tired of extensions that automatically:
// - show welcome pages / walkthroughs
// - show release notes
// - send telemetry
// - recommend things
//
// This disables all of that stuff.
// If you have more config, leave a comment so I can add it!!

Setting up dnsmasq on OS X

Install dnsmasq

Via brew or other method

Set up DNS resolver order

In order to work on every connection and on any TLD, dnsmasq needs to be the first DNS resolver receving the query.

And since dnsmasq is a local process, all DNS queries need to go to 127.0.0.1

On macOS, /etc/resolv.conf is automaticaly created, depending on a variety of things (network settings, etc), so it cannot be edited.

Top-level `await` is a footgun

Edit — February 2019

This gist had a far larger impact than I imagined it would, and apparently people are still finding it, so a quick update:

  • TC39 is currently moving forward with a slightly different version of TLA, referred to as 'variant B', in which a module with TLA doesn't block sibling execution. This vastly reduces the danger of parallelizable work happening in serial and thereby delaying startup, which was the concern that motivated me to write this gist
  • In the wild, we're seeing (async main(){...}()) as a substitute for TLA. This completely eliminates the blocking problem (yay!) but it's less powerful, and harder to statically analyse (boo). In other words the lack of TLA is causing real problems
  • Therefore, a version of TLA that solves the original issue is a valuable addition to the language, and I'm in full support of the current proposal, which you can read here.

I'll leave the rest of this document unedited, for archaeological

Lodash / Underscore sort object keys. Like _.sortBy(), but on keys instead of values, returning an object, not an array. Defaults to alphanumeric sort.
var obj = {b: 3, c: 2, a: 1};
_.sortKeysBy(obj);
// {a: 1, b: 3, c: 2}
_.sortKeysBy(obj, function (value, key) {
return value;
});
// {a: 1, c: 2, b: 3}

Instructions on how to fix npm if you've installed Node through Homebrew on Mac OS X or Linuxbrew

OBSOLETE

This entire guide is based on an old version of Homebrew/Node and no longer applies. It was only ever intended to fix a specific error message which has since been fixed. I've kept it here for historical purposes, but it should no longer be used. Homebrew maintainers have fixed things and the options mentioned don't exist and won't work.

I still believe it is better to manually install npm separately since having a generic package manager maintain another package manager is a bad idea, but the instructions below don't explain how to do that.

Fixing npm On Mac OS X for Homebrew Users

Installing node through Homebrew can cause problems with npm for globally installed packages. To fix it quickly, use the solution below. An explanation is also included at the end of this document.

Steps to install the SOLR PHP extension on RHEL. Installation is a little trickery because of how curl is built into PHP as a shared library and not statically compiled.
# install dependencies
sudo yum install curl-devel
sudo yum install libxml2-devel
# install extension for solr -- note use pear instead of pecl install
sudo pear install pecl/solr
# when it asks for libcURL path if you are on a 64bit machine
# change:
libcURL install prefix [/usr] : /usr/lib64
