// - A bind operation that applies a function to a monadic value

I know a lot of people have trouble zooming and panning d3. Indeed, I found myself in a situation where I had a simple bar chart to which I wanted to add the zoom behavior, and also make the full chart draggable. I saw several extremely complex examples of d3 charts with zooming and panning, and thought that there must be an easier way, particularly if you don't need to scale the x and y axes. There is, and here is is in CoffeeScript:

vis.call(d3.behavior.zoom()
  .on("zoom", ->
    g.attr("transform", "translate(" + d3.event.translate[0] + "," + d3.event.translate[1] + ") scale(" + d3.event.scale + ")")
  )
)

Git Wars: GitHub vs Bitbucket

Introduction

Now, you might think the answer I'm going to give you is already obvious because I'm using GiHub right now, but it's not. Both GitHub and Bitbucket offer great Git services, but each has its own features and pricing plans. In the following... thing, I'm going to compare the two and then offer a final solution that should work for most people.

TL;DR: Both. Use GitHub for open source and public repos (you'll spend most of your time here) and Bitbucket for private repos. But, sign up for GitHub first, then import account into Bitbucket. Also, check comments for updates. P.S. I personally prefer GitHub.

    val return : 'a -> 'a t

-- 
-- We implement a tiny language with three commands: Open, Close, and Get.
-- The first Get after an Open returns 1, the second Get returns 2, and so on.
-- 
-- Get is only valid while the state is open, and
-- Open must always be matched by a Close.
-- We enforce both restrictions via the type system.
-- 
-- There are two valid states: Opened and Closed.

Recording a Great Coding Screencast

The Screen

First and foremost a coding screencast is about the code, and we need to make sure it looks great. There are a few aspects to this that help ensure that is the case.

Resolution

720p is the target resolution. In pixel terms this is 1280x720. We've gotten the best results when we record at 2560x1440 in a HiDPI (pixel double) mode, giving an effective visible resolution of 1280x720, but extremely crisp. This resolution is achievable on 27" monitors and retina MBPs.

    return mountId++;

Google Chrome Developers says:

The new WOFF 2.0 Web Font compression format offers a 30% average gain over WOFF 1.0 (up to 50%+ in some cases). WOFF 2.0 is available since Chrome 36 and Opera 23.
