Twitter autoresponder bot

By Daniel15 (dan.cx) This is a very simple Twitter autoresponder bot. It requires PECL OAuth extension to be installed (run "pecl install oauth", or if on Windows, grab php-oauth.dll. If using cPanel you can install it via WHM). The authentication is designed for command-line usage, it won't work too well via a web browser. You'll have to sign up for an application on Twitter's site to get the consumer key and secret.

Could be modified to be more advanced (match regular expressions to answer questions, etc.)

Questions? See my blog post - http://dan.cx/blog/2011/06/twitter-autoreply-bot-dbznappa

Modified 2013-06-13 - Twitter API 1.0 discontinued, modified to use Twitter API 1.1

// This bit is important.  It detects/adds XMLHttpRequest.sendAsBinary.  Without this
// you cannot send image data as part of a multipart/form-data encoded request from
// Javascript.  This implementation depends on Uint8Array, so if the browser doesn't
// support either XMLHttpRequest.sendAsBinary or Uint8Array, then you will need to
// find yet another way to implement this. (This is left as an exercise for the reader,
// but if you do it, please let me know and I'll integrate it.)

if ( XMLHttpRequest.prototype.sendAsBinary === undefined ) {

High level style in javascript.

Opinions are like assholes, every one has got one.

This one is mine.

Punctuation: who cares?

Punctuation is a bikeshed. Put your semicolons, whitespace, and commas where you like them.

When hiring Ruby on Rails programmers, knowing the right questions to ask during an interview was a real challenge for me at first. In 30 minutes or less, it's difficult to get a solid read on a candidate's skill set without looking at code they've previously written. And in the corporate/enterprise world, I often don't have access to their previous work.

To ensure we hired competent ruby developers at my last job, I created a list of 15 ruby questions -- a ruby measuring stick if you will -- to select the cream of the crop that walked through our doors.

What to expect

Candidates will typically give you a range of responses based on their experience and personality. So it's up to you to decide the correctness of their answer.
