#5 even columns in Bootstrap 3

Bootstrap can easily make 1,2,3,4, or 6 equally sized columns. But what if you want 5? Well the grid doesn't support it out of the box. You have to add a bit of CSS to Bootstrap and add a class to your row.

The HTML

Write your HTML as if you were creating columns to fit a grid width of 10 as opposed to 12. The example below shows 5 columns with a width of 2.

<div class="row fivecolumns">

Running redis using upstart on Ubuntu

I've been trying to understand how to setup systems from the ground up on Ubuntu. I just installed redis onto the box and here's how I did it and some things to look out for.

To install:

Avoid jQuery When Possible

jQuery does good jobs when you're dealing with browser compatibility. But we're living in an age that fewer and fewer people use old-school browsers such as IE <= 7. With the growing of DOM APIs in modern browsers (including IE 8), most functions that jQuery provides are built-in natively.

When targeting only modern browsers, it is better to avoid using jQuery's backward-compatible features. Instead, use the native DOM API, which will make your web page run much faster than you might think (native C / C++ implementaion v.s. JavaScript).

If you're making a web page for iOS (e.g. UIWebView), you should use native DOM APIs because mobile Safari is not that old-school web browser; it supports lots of native DOM APIs.

If you're making a Chrome Extension, you should always use native APIs, not only because Chrome has almost the latest DOM APIs available, but this can also avoid performance issue and unnecessary memory occupation (each jQuery-driven extension needs a separate

Performance of Flask, Tornado, GEvent, and their combinations

Wensheng Wang, 10/1/11

Source: http://blog.wensheng.org/2011/10/performance-of-flask-tornado-gevent-and.html

When choosing a web framework, I pretty much have eyes set on Tornado. But I heard good things about Flask and Gevent. So I tested the performance of each and combinations of the three. I chose something just a little more advanced than a "Hello World" program to write - one that use templates. Here are the codes:
