Get only new items from Firebase
// assumes you add a timestamp field to each record (see Firebase.ServerValue.TIMESTAMP)
// pros: fast and done server-side (less bandwidth, faster response), simple
// cons: a few bytes on each record for the timestamp
var ref = new Firebase(...);
ref.orderByChild('timestamp').startAt(Date.now()).on('child_added', function(snapshot) {
console.log('new record', snap.key());
});

Global gitignore

There are certain files created by particular editors, IDEs, operating systems, etc., that do not belong in a repository. But adding system-specific files to the repo's .gitignore is considered a poor practice. This file should only exclude files and directories that are a part of the package that should not be versioned (such as the node_modules directory) as well as files that are generated (and regenerated) as artifacts of a build process.

All other files should be in your own global gitignore file:

  • Create a file called .gitignore in your home directory and add any filepath patterns you want to ignore.
  • Tell git where your global gitignore file is.

Note: The specific name and path you choose aren't important as long as you configure git to find it, as shown below. You could substitute .config/git/ignore for .gitignore in your home directory, if you prefer.

launchUri

Cross-browser implementation of navigator.msLaunchUri

Microsoft’s navigator.msLaunchUri method only works in Internet Explorer on Windows 8. Therefore I came up with a (nearly) cross-browser implementation that uses the native msLaunchUri when it’s available and falls back to adventurous hacks when running in other browsers.

Description

launchUri (uri, successCallback, noHandlerCallback, unknownCallback)
