Comm it, push it, pull - request it,
Fetch it, branch it, patch it, fake it,
Merge it, git: it, never - https: it.
Write it, cut it, paste it, save it,
Build it, check it, quick - rewrite it,
Clone it, crack it, crop it, comp it,
Drag and drop it, gzlib - gzip it.

<h1>The GitHub Paradox</h1></ul>
<br />
<p>Github is supposed to be about <strong><q>social coding</q></strong> and this aspect must be rather high on their priorities list &mdash;<ul>I mean, it's <em><strong>on the official Github logo</strong></em>.
</p>There is currently (1 September 2012, at time of writing) a sort of paradox in this regard. <br />
<br />
I think I'll illustrate by means of copy/pasted text from actual comment 'threads' of arbitrary issue-tickets of arbitrary repos.</ul><br />
<ul><code><q><strong>With...</strong><br />[continues to describe issue status]... <br />... <strong>is an addition to issue #111</q></strong>
<br /></code><br />

Sass/Less Comparison

In this document I am using Sass's SCSS syntax. You can choose to use the indented syntax in sass, if you prefer it, it has no functional differences from the SCSS syntax.

For Less, I'm using the JavaScript version because this is what they suggest on the website. The ruby version may be different.

Understanding Backbone

Understanding Backbone

In this post I will gradually refactor our map framework from how I used to write JavaScript into Backbone.js models, collections, views and events.

Let's start with map load:

Download github library for Pythonista.
# Note that this script attempts to delete directories (Folders) called 'temp' and 'dateutil'
# within Pythonista as part of installation. It will also overwrite files in directories
# named 'github' and 'githubista'. If you are using Pythonista 1.3 or above please check
# that you have not created any Folders with these names before running this script as
# any files inside them will be irretrievably lost.
