Just for everyone's information, if you want to run purely utf8, don't forget the following:
httpd.conf:
AddCharset UTF-8 .utf8
AddDefaultCharset UTF-8
php.ini
default_charset = "utf-8"

How to use Rails 3.0's new notification system to inject custom log events

Instrument Anything in Rails 3

With Rails 3.0 released a few weeks ago I've migrated a few apps and I'm constantly finding useful new improvements. One such improvement is the ability to log anything in the same way that Rails internally logs ActiveRecord and ActionView. By default Rails 3 logs look slightly spiffier than those produced by Rails 2.3: (notice the second line has been cleaned up)

Started GET "/" for 127.0.0.1 at Mon Sep 06 01:07:11 -0400 2010
  Processing by HomeController#index as HTML
  User Load (0.2ms)  SELECT `users`.* FROM `users` WHERE (`users`.`id` = 3) LIMIT 1
  CACHE (0.0ms)  SELECT `users`.* FROM `users` WHERE (`users`.`id` = 3) LIMIT 1

Rendered layouts/_nav.html.erb (363.4ms)

Things to do when IE9 Beta comes out

Things to do when IE9 Beta comes out

Note significant features added since IE9 PP4

  • Implemented but not announced: box-shadow, hsla
  • Expecting: 2d transforms, css animation, css transitions, flexible box model
  • Maybe: gradients, columns, reflections, svg filters, uncrippling @font-face, 3d transforms
  • Maybe version auto-update functionality

Test Modernizr against it

  • Does it still throw an error checking elem.msTransform?

Use one of these techniques to install node and npm without having to sudo. Discussed in more detail at http://joyeur.com/2010/12/10/installing-node-and-npm/ Note: npm >=0.3 is *safer* when using sudo.
echo 'export PATH=$HOME/local/bin:$PATH' >> ~/.bashrc
. ~/.bashrc
mkdir ~/local
mkdir ~/node-latest-install
cd ~/node-latest-install
curl http://nodejs.org/dist/node-latest.tar.gz | tar xz --strip-components=1
./configure --prefix=~/local
make install # ok, fine, this step probably takes more than 30 seconds...

// HOWTO: load LABjs itself dynamically!

Git + ZendFramework submodule = modified: src/vendor/zend because of CRLF: the workaround
It's a shame, but https://github.com/zendframework/zf2 contains dozens of files with CRLF issues.
If like me, you set your Git core.autocrlf to true, then your ZendFramework submodule is always modified:
$ git status
# On branch master
# Changed but not updated:
#
# modified: src/vendor/zend
To fix it, you can set Git core.autocrlf to false *only for this submodule*.

Well, let's do just that. JimBastard, aka Marak Squires, has a long
history of self-promoting projects that he's either stolen outright
from other programmers, or simply wrapped and called his own.
You'll often find him promoting his "work", so watch this video
before continuing:

# Note that node doesn't create a PID file (hence --make-pidfile)
