Doing multiple almond builds with a nodejs script, example
//Download jquery.js and place it in the build, do not use require-jquery.js
//in the build, since each of the build layers just needs almond and not the
//full require.js file.
//This file is run in nodejs to do the build: node build.js
//Load the requirejs optimizer
var requirejs = require('./r.js');
//Set up basic config, include config that is
//common to all the requirejs.optimize() calls.

How I Got Node.js Talking on EC2's Port 80

The Problem

Standard practices say no non-root process gets to talk to the Internet on a port less than 1024. How, then, could I get Node talking on port 80 on EC2? (I wanted it to go as fast as possible and use the smallest possible share of my teeny tiny little micro-instance's resources, so proxying through nginx or Apache seemed suboptimal.)

The temptingly easy but ultimately wrong solution:

Alter the port the script talks to from 8000 to 80:

}).listen(80);

// A short snippet for detecting versions of IE in JavaScript
// without resorting to user-agent sniffing
// ----------------------------------------------------------
// If you're not in IE (or IE version is less than 5) then:
// ie === undefined
// If you're in IE (>=5) then you can determine which version:
// ie === 7; // IE7
// Thus, to detect IE:
// if (ie) {}
