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

Most active GitHub users (git.io/top)

The count of contributions (summary of Pull Requests, opened issues and commits) to public repos at GitHub.com from Tue, 20 Jan 2015 16:48:39 GMT till Wed, 20 Jan 2016 16:48:39 GMT.

Only first 1000 GitHub users according to the count of followers are taken. This is because of limitations of GitHub search. Sorting algo in pseudocode:

githubUsers
 .filter(user =&gt; user.followers &gt; 539)

##VGG16 model for Keras

This is the Keras model of the 16-layer network used by the VGG team in the ILSVRC-2014 competition.

It has been obtained by directly converting the Caffe model provived by the authors.

Details about the network architecture can be found in the following arXiv paper:

Very Deep Convolutional Networks for Large-Scale Image Recognition

K. Simonyan, A. Zisserman

The Ember app I'm working on right now has a number of lists of elements. Some of those lists can be quite long. We could add pagination, but we decided that filtering would be a better solution.

I took a look at ember-list-filter. This library works and it has the basic features I'm looking for -- arbitrary template for the list item and arbitrary fields on which to filter. But its API isn't very modern-Ember.

In particular, I feel the iteration-item template should be a block and the fields should be positional (unnamed) parameters. So I whipped up a little component.

Plain-text Syntax Highlighting

Over the years I've gotten used to reading code with syntax highlighting. The colouring of the highlighting provides anchoring points for my eyes as I scroll, helping me to keep my place. However, when I'd be editing plain-text, I have no anchoring points, just a huge wall of text; so I wrote a simple syntax file for it.

All it does is highlights capitalized words, very simple. This typically ends up highlighting things of importance: headings, names, and most importantly the beginning of sentences. I've found this to be a good amount of highlighting without being overwhelming, providing context without being overly flashy.

Here's my current version:

Virtual Hosts on nginx (CSC309)

When hosting our web applications, we often have one public IP address (i.e., an IP address visible to the outside world) using which we want to host multiple web apps. For example, one may wants to host three different web apps respectively for example1.com, example2.com, and example1.com/images on the same machine using a single IP address.

How can we do that? Well, the good news is Internet browsers
