Programming Media Keys on the Ducky One 2 Skyline

To use media keys on the Ducky One 2 Skyline, you must record a macro to bind the media function to a hotkey combination, i.e. Fn plus some key.

Example

Important: In the instructions below, "Press X+Y+Z" means press and hold key X, press and hold key Y, press and hold key Z in that order, and then release all three.

As an example, to bind Fn+PgUp to the play/pause media function:

migrs

<?php namespace App\Http;

use Illuminate\Foundation\Http\Kernel as HttpKernel;

class Kernel extends HttpKernel
{
    protected $middleware = [
        \App\Http\Middleware\NewRelicPatch::class,
        //... your other middlewares
    ];

  #did we get an exit status?
  if [ $status -gt 0 ]
    echo 'Not a git repo.'
    return 1
  end

  if [ -z $fetch_url ]

from streams session

• end-of-stream - specify a callback to be called when a stream ends (which is surpsingly hard to get right)
• duplexify - compose a Duplex stream from a Readable and a Writable stream
• pump - pipe streams together and close all of them if one of them closes
• pumpify - combine an array of streams into a single duplex stream using pump and duplexify
• through2 - tools for making Transform streams
• from2 - tools for making Readable streams

from "participatory modules" session

Essential JavaScript Links

I no longer mantain this list. There are lots of other very comprehensive JavaScript link lists out there. Please see those, instead (Google "awesome JavaScript" for a start).

io.js - what you need to know

• io is a fork of node v0.12 (the next stable version of node.js, currently unreleased)
• io.js will be totally compatible with node.js
• the people who created io.js are node core contributors who have different ideas on how to run the project
• it is not a zero-sum game. many core contributors will help maintain both node.js and io.js

Never Expose DB Results Directly

1. If you rename a field, then your users are fucked. Convert with a hardcoded array structure.
2. Most DB drivers [for PHP] will show integers as numeric strings and false as "0", so you want to typecast them.
3. Unless you're using an ORM with "hidden" functionality, people will see passwords, salts and all sorts of fancy codes. If you add one and forget to put it in your $hidden array then OOPS!

Use the URI sparingly, and correctly

1. Use the query string for paired params instead of /users/id/5/active/true. Your API does not need to be SEO optimised.
2. ?format=xml is stupid, use an Accept: application/xml header. I added this to the CodeIgniter Rest Server once for lazy people, and now people think it's a thing. It's not.

(tl;dr DOM builders like [domo][domo] trump HTML templates on the client.)

Like all web developers, I've used a lot of template engines. Like most, I've also written a few of them, some of which even [fit in a tweet][140].

The first open-source code I ever wrote was also one of the the first template engines for node.js, [a port][node-tmpl] of the mother of all JavaScript template engines, [John Resig][jresig]'s [micro-templates][tmpl]. Of course, these days you can't swing a dead cat without hitting a template engine; one in eight packages on npm ([2,220][npm templates] of 16,226 as of 10/19) involve templates.

John's implementation has since evolved and [lives on in Underscore.js][underscore], which means it's the default choice for templating in Backbone.js. And for a while, it's all I would ever use when building a client-side app.

But I can't really see the value in client-side HTML templates anymore.
