Seven different types of CSS attribute selectors

// This attribute exists on the element
[value]

// This attribute has a specific value of cool
[value='cool'] 

// This attribute value contains the word cool somewhere in it
[value*='cool']

Stuff I wish I'd known sooner about service workers

I recently had several days of extremely frustrating experiences with service workers. Here are a few things I've since learned which would have made my life much easier but which isn't particularly obvious from most of the blog posts and videos I've seen.

I'll add to this list over time – suggested additions welcome in the comments or via twitter.com/rich_harris.

Use Canary for development instead of Chrome stable

Chrome 51 has some pretty wild behaviour related to console.log in service workers. Canary doesn't, and it has a load of really good service worker related stuff in devtools.

I've had the opertunity to try a variety of different server configurations but never really got around to trying HHVM with Magento until recently. I thought I would share a detailed walkthrough of configuring a single instance Magento server running Nginx + Fast CGI + HHVM / PHP-FPM + Redis + Percona. For the purpose of this blog post I'm assuming you are using Fedora, CentOS, or in my case RHEL 6.5.

Please note: I'm 100% open to suggestions. If you see something I did that needs to be done a different way, please let me know. I haven't included my Perconca my.conf file yet. I will shortly. Also I plan on trying this same test with HHVM 3.3 and PHP 7.

Install the EPEL, Webtatic, and REMI repos

rpm -Uvh http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/i386/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
rpm -Uvh http://rpms.famillecollet.com/enterprise/remi-release-6.rpm
rpm -Uvh http://mirror.webtatic.com/yum/el6/latest.rpm

Latency numbers every programmer should know

L1 cache reference ......................... 0.5 ns
Branch mispredict ............................ 5 ns
L2 cache reference ........................... 7 ns
Mutex lock/unlock ........................... 25 ns
Main memory reference ...................... 100 ns             
Compress 1K bytes with Zippy ............. 3,000 ns  =   3 µs
Send 2K bytes over 1 Gbps network ....... 20,000 ns  =  20 µs
SSD random read ........................ 150,000 ns  = 150 µs

Read 1 MB sequentially from memory ..... 250,000 ns = 250 µs
