Created February 10, 2010 16:24
a Mersenne Twister implementation in javascript. Makes up for Math.random() not letting you specify a seed value.
/*
I've wrapped Makoto Matsumoto and Takuji Nishimura's code in a namespace
so it's better encapsulated. Now you can have multiple random number generators
and they won't stomp all over eachother's state.
If you want to use this as a substitute for Math.random(), use the random()
method like so:
var m = new MersenneTwister();

This is the best localStorage polyfill in the world
// I mean, seriously, localStorage is supported even by your mum. How about instead of
// casing the feature out, you give users in-memory (stale) storage instead?
// If they close your application, they deserve to lose data anyway.
// if (!('localStorage' in window)) {
if (!Modernizr.localstorage) {
window.localStorage = {
_data : {},
setItem : function(id, val) { return this._data[id] = String(val); },
getItem : function(id) { return this._data.hasOwnProperty(id) ? this._data[id] : undefined; },

@media only screen and (min-width:768px) and (max-width:1269px) {
/* In my particular design, I used a fluid grid limited to a
max-width of 1140px, while (if there is enough room)
pushing the menu outside of layout, requiring a total
limit of at least 1270px.
So, this first query applies to any screen-width less

Launch Sublime Text 2 from the Mac OS X Terminal

Sublime Text 2 ships with a CLI called subl (why not "sublime", go figure). This utility is hidden in the following folder (assuming you installed Sublime in /Applications like normal folk. If this following line opens Sublime Text for you, then bingo, you're ready.

open /Applications/Sublime\ Text\ 2.app/Contents/SharedSupport/bin/subl

You can find more (official) details about subl here: http://www.sublimetext.com/docs/2/osx_command_line.html
