Don't use VPN services.

No, seriously, don't. You're probably reading this because you've asked what VPN service to use, and this is the answer.

Note: The content in this post does not apply to using VPN for their intended purpose; that is, as a virtual private (internal) network. It only applies to using it as a glorified proxy, which is what every third-party "VPN provider" does.

• A Turkish translation can be found here, contributed by agyild.
• There's also this article about VPN services, which is honestly better written (and has more cat pictures!) than my article.

var indexedDB = window.indexedDB || window.mozIndexedDB || window.webkitIndexedDB || window.msIndexedDB || window.shimIndexedDB;

// Open (or create) the database
var open = indexedDB.open("MyDatabase", 1);

// Create the schema

Please petition Github to support HTTPS on github pages: https://github.com/contact

Here's what I wrote:

Obviously, a lot of people want HTTPS for github pages:

• isaacs/github#156

Until recently, that would be difficult to implement but, as it turns out, the implementation is pretty much complete:

• https://letsencrypt.org >* https://github.com/letsencrypt/lets-encrypt-preview

Searching Git commit history

This should be one of the core features of Git, but for some reason it's impossible to figure out how to search for a string in your commit history and see the diffs that that string is in. Here's the best I've come up with:

To find which commits and which files a string was added or removed in:

git log -S'search string' --oneline --name-status

To see the diff of that

/*
  I've wrapped Makoto Matsumoto and Takuji Nishimura's code in a namespace
  so it's better encapsulated. Now you can have multiple random number generators
  and they won't stomp all over eachother's state.
  
  If you want to use this as a substitute for Math.random(), use the random()
  method like so:
  
  var m = new MersenneTwister();
