Share Counts

I have always struggled with getting all the various share buttons from Facebook, Twitter, Google Plus, Pinterest, etc to align correctly and to not look like a tacky explosion of buttons. Seeing a number of sites rolling their own share buttons with counts, for example The Next Web I decided to look into the various APIs on how to simply return the share count.

If you want to roll up all of these into a single jQuery plugin check out Sharrre

Many of these API calls and methods are undocumented, so anticipate that they will change in the future. Also, if you are planning on rolling these out across a site I would recommend creating a simple endpoint that periodically caches results from all of the APIs so that you are not overloading the services will requests.

Deploying pypy on uwsgi

Instructions are kind of sporadic around the internet, so I thought I would gather them all in one place. The following example uses a Flask app as the thing deployed. You should only have to this once, and then you can pass the bin around.

Requirements

• pypy 2.x (tested)
• uwsgi 1.9.11+ (trunk as of this gist)

Build translated pypy binary and pypy lib.

Modified Preorder Tree Traversal

Hierarchical data metrics that allows fast read operations on tree like structures.

Based on Left and Right fields that are set during tree traversal. When entered into node value is set to it's Left, when exiting node value is set to it's Right.

Sample implementation

kottenator

// Implementation in ES6
function pagination(c, m) {
    var current = c,
        last = m,
        delta = 2,
        left = current - delta,
        right = current + delta + 1,
        range = [],
        rangeWithDots = [],
        l;

About

This is a collection of snippets, not a comprehensive guide. I suggest you start with Operational PGP.

Here is an incomplete list of things that are different from other approaches:

• I don't use keyservers. Ever.
• Yes, I use Gmail instead of some bespoke hipster freedom service
