Short explanation on why JavaScript's object model sucks

How do you convert an object to a string?

It started out simple enough:

var s = obj.toString();

Ooops. But wait. What if an object has a toString key inside of it?

Unknown data inside MIDI file
If anyone can figure out what this data is, that would be greeeaaaat. Bytes represented in hex.
Found inside a MIDI file between tracks. Surely it's related to music somehow, like a sample..? Not sure.
I've inserted newlines after 99 and 89, which seem to be very common bytes.
29 40 30 99
26 5a 00 99
30 50 60 89
30 40 00 89
26 40 18 99

Zed settings to disable as many features as possible

I love zed, but boy do they like cramming in a bunch of annoying features.

It's taken me a while to track down how to disable some of them, so here are my current settings:

Requires:
