oxguy3 / chrome on fedora 22.txt
Last active September 2, 2015 19:56
=== EASILY INSTALL CHROME ON FEDORA 22 ===
For some reason, Google Chrome is kind of a pain in the butt to install on
Fedora, and then another pain in the butt to make it not have two icons in your
dock. Let's fix that. Just open a Terminal (no, you don't need to be root) and
paste these lines in to get pain-free Google Chrome. After you run this, press
Alt+F2 and type "r" to make GNOME update.
cat << EOF | sudo tee /etc/yum.repos.d/google-chrome.repo

Free to Play by Valve Software

FREE TO PLAY is a feature-length documentary that follows three professional gamers from around the world as they compete for a million dollar prize in the first Dota 2 International Tournament. In recent years, E Sports has surged in popularity to become one of the most widely-practiced forms of competitive sport today. A million dollar tournament changed the landscape of the gaming world and for those elite players at the top of their craft, nothing would ever be the same again. Produced by Valve, the film documents the challenges and sacrifices required of players to compete at the highest level.

oxguy3 / Clark County NV building permits without IE.js
Last active December 29, 2015 16:35
Clark County NV's building permits report generator relies on clientside VBScript to work. Since this isn't 2002 and since I'm not using Internet Explorer, I ported (some of) that code to JavaScript (via a TamperMonkey script) so the website is usable.

// @description For some awful reason, Clark County uses clientside VBScript. This is a drop-in JavaScript replacement for that code.

scratchpad of ideas for making Google Sheets formulas much nicer

Google Sheets better formulas idea

Basically, I passionately hate the cramped awkward language that Google Sheets uses for formulas. Wouldn't it be super cool if there were a much nicer language you could work with that compiled back into Google Sheets? It'd be like CoffeeScript, but for Google Sheets, and with a browser extension so you could do it all seamlessly in Google Sheets.

So first off, there's some basic obvious stuff you'd want to do:

  • Pretty printing: split across multiple lines, add indentation, add color coding
  • Cleaner logical operators: replace AND(x,y) with x && y, replace IF(a,b,c) with something like if (a) { b } else { c }, etc.
  • Better function names: kill the ALL CAPS regime, and give things clearer names (for example, why the hell does FIND() mean case-sensitive search and SEARCH() means case-insensitive search?? how are you supposed to remember which is which??)

Beyond that basic cleanup, there's some further really complicated (but really convenient) stuff you coul
