#Understanding closures, callbacks and promises

For a code newbie like myself, callbacks, closures and promises are scary JavaScript concepts.

10 months into my full-time dev career, and I would struggle to explain these words to a peer.

So I decided it was time to face my fears, and try to get my head around each concept.

Here are the notes from my initial reading. I'll continue to refine them as my understanding improves.

Publishing an NPM package

Here's what I do when I publish an NPM package.

1: Make sure you're up to date

I always like to check what's going on in a repo before I do anything:

To remove a submodule you need to:

Delete the relevant section from the .gitmodules file.
Stage the .gitmodules changes git add .gitmodules
Delete the relevant section from .git/config.
Run git rm --cached path_to_submodule (no trailing slash).
Run rm -rf .git/modules/path_to_submodule (no trailing slash).
Commit git commit -m "Removed submodule "
Delete the now untracked submodule files rm -rf path_to_submodule

Stealing WiFi

/etc/hosts

This will let you access any google owned site. This includes: youtube, google cache, google translate, google search, gmail, google news, etc.

Install the HTTPS Everywhere extension
Add these rules to your /etc/hosts file

How to use Tim Pope’s Pathogen

I’ll assume you are on Linux or Mac OSX. For Windows, replace ~/.vim/ with $HOME\vimfiles\ and forward slashes with backward slashes.

The idea

Vim plugins can be single scripts or collections of specialized scripts that you are supposed to put in “standard” locations under your ~/.vim/ directory. Syntax scripts go into ~/.vim/syntax/, plugin scripts go into ~/.vim/plugin, documentation goes into ~/.vim/doc/ and so on. That design can lead to a messy config where it quickly becomes hard to manage your plugins.

This is not the place to explain the technicalities behind Pathogen but the basic concept is quite straightforward: each plugin lives in its own directory under ~/.vim/bundle/, where each directory simulates the standard structure of your ~/.vim/ directory.
