JavaScript code for generating Firebase Push IDs
/**
* Fancy ID generator that creates 20-character string identifiers with the following properties:
*
* 1. They're based on timestamp so that they sort *after* any existing ids.
* 2. They contain 72-bits of random data after the timestamp so that IDs won't collide with other clients' IDs.
* 3. They sort *lexicographically* (so the timestamp is converted to characters that will sort properly).
* 4. They're monotonically increasing. Even if you generate more than one in the same timestamp, the
* latter ones will sort after the former ones. We do this by using the previous random bits
* but "incrementing" them by 1 (only in the case of a timestamp collision).

How to set up stress-free SSL on an OS X development machine

How to set up stress-free SSL on an OS X development machine

One of the best ways to reduce complexity (read: stress) in web development is to minimize the differences between your development and production environments. After being frustrated by attempts to unify the approach to SSL on my local machine and in production, I searched for a workflow that would make the protocol invisible to me between all environments.

Most workflows make the following compromises:

  • Use HTTPS in production but HTTP locally. This is annoying because it makes the environments inconsistent, and the protocol choices leak up into the stack. For example, your web application needs to understand the underlying protocol when using the secure flag for cookies. If you don't get this right, your HTTP development server won't be able to read the cookies it writes, or worse, your HTTPS production server could pass sensitive cookies over an insecure connection.

  • Use production SSL certificates locally. This is annoying

A list of free email provider domains. Some of these are probably not around anymore. I've combined a dozen lists from around the web. Current "major providers" should all be in here as of the date this is created.

Here’s an example of my current web app user agent, device, and/or feature detection approach. I tend to inline this in the page header just before the stylesheet as part of the distribution build. A benefit of this approach is that detection is done early without any external dependencies. It’s also straightforward to modify or extend while you…
env = (function() {
var flags = {}, ua = navigator.userAgent, el = document.createElement('div'), video = document.createElement('video'), audio = document.createElement('audio'), root = document.documentElement, i
function flag(names) {
names = names.split(' ')
for (i = 0; i < names.length; i++)
flags[names[i]] = true
}
function classnames() {
var names = [], name
for(name in flags) if (flags.hasOwnProperty(name))
