Bootstrap's Typeahead plugin extended (allowing for AJAX functionality) among other things

This is a fork of Bootstrap Typeahead that adds minimal but powerful extensions.

For example, process typeahead list asynchronously and return objects

  # This example does an AJAX lookup and is in CoffeeScript
  $('.typeahead').typeahead(
    # source can be a function
    source: (typeahead, query) ->
 # this function receives the typeahead object and the query string

Formatting dates/times in node.js using Olson timezones and moment.js. Converts server-side timestamps to the browser's timezone.
var moment = require('moment');
var tz = require('timezone/loaded');
var time = require('time');
module.exports = function() {
var strftime_format = '%F %T %z'; // used to convert a date into a normalized strftime format with timezone
var moment_format = 'YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss zz'; // moment.js LDML format for parsing date strings
/**
* Convert a Javascript Date into node-time wrapper with the appropriate timezone.

simple 4mb buffer proxy benchmarks

simple 4mb buffer proxy benchmarks

the goal: to do fast virtual host routing, e.g. to have a single process on a machine listening on port 80 and proxying data based on HTTP Host to other non-port-80 web processes on the same machine

many people use nginx for this because nginx is faster than node is currently for data-heavy applications (see below)

about these benchmarks

they use the JS proxies from https://github.com/substack/bouncy/tree/master/bench
