Locate the section for your github remote in the .git/config file. It looks like this:

[remote "origin"]
	fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
	url = git@github.com:joyent/node.git

Now add the line fetch = +refs/pull/*/head:refs/remotes/origin/pr/* to this section. Obviously, change the github url to match your project's URL. It ends up looking like this:

JavaScript function hoisting by example

Below are many examples of function hoisting behavior in JavaScript. Ones marked as works successfuly print 'hi!' without errors.

To play around with these examples (recommended) clone them with git and execute them with e.g. node a.js

Notes on hoisting

(I may be using incorrect terms below, please forgive me)

What forces layout / reflow

All of the below properties or methods, when requested/called in JavaScript, will trigger the browser to synchronously calculate the style and layout*. This is also called reflow or layout thrashing, and is common performance bottleneck.

Generally, all APIs that synchronously provide layout metrics will trigger forced reflow / layout. Read on for additional cases and details.

Element APIs

Getting box metrics

• elem.offsetLeft, elem.offsetTop, elem.offsetWidth, elem.offsetHeight, elem.offsetParent

Around 2006-2007, it was a bit of a fashion to hook lava lamps up to the build server. Normally, the green lava lamp would be on, but if the build failed, it would turn off and the red lava lamp would turn on.

By coincidence, I've actually met, about that time, (probably) the first person to hook up a lava lamp to a build server. It was Alberto Savoia, who'd founded a testing tools company (that did some very interesting things around generative testing that have basically never been noticed). Alberto had noticed that people did not react with any urgency when the build broke. They'd check in broken code and go off to something else, only reacting to the breakage they'd caused when some other programmer pulled the change and had problems.

I have a bit of good news and bad news. Friday, April 3, was my last day at Uber. Monday, April 6, was my first day at Agoric.

I started at Uber 5½ years ago, on the dispatch system. I joined Tom Croucher’s team, which focused on common frameworks for marketplace systems, with Jake Verbaten, Russ Frank, and spiritually Matthew Esch. When I arrived, the scaffolding and frameworks were in place. I wrote a tool for verifying that JSON schema evolution remained backward-compatible, did some weird stuff to automatically mix the middleware stack, and wrote a thing to balance load across Node.js processes more fairly than the Linux kernel. I don’t believe any of that work made it to production, really, but for those six months, I learned how to operate global dispatch while I was on-call for 24 hours once a month and developed a bald spot.

I then got on board a new Distributed Systems Group under Matt Ranney’s guidance and many of the folks I’ve been working with to this day. Matt had designed a DHT based on the S
