The problems and some security implications of websockets - Cross-site WebSockets Scripting (XSWS)

WebSockets - An Introduction

WebSockets is a modern HTML5 standard which makes communication between client and server a lot more simpler than ever. We are all familiar with the technology of sockets. Sockets have been fundamental to network communication for a long time but usually the communication over the browser has been restricted. The general restrictions

  • The server used to have a permanent listener while the client (aka browser) was not designated any fixed listener for a more long term connection. Hence, every communication was restricted to the client demanding and the server responding.
  • This meant that unless the client requested for a particular resource, the server was unable to push such a resource to the client.
  • This was detrimental since the client is then forced to check with the server at regular intervals. This meant a lot of libraries focused on optimizing asynchronous calls and identifying the response of asynchronous calls. Notably t

a simple git branching model

a simple git branching model (written in 2013)

This is a very simple git workflow. It (and variants) is in use by many people. I settled on it after using it very effectively at Athena. GitHub does something similar; Zach Holman mentioned it in this talk.

Update: Woah, thanks for all the attention. Didn't expect this simple rant to get popular.

Laravel 4 Eloquent Cheat Sheet.

Conventions:

Defining Eloquent model (will assume that DB table named is set as plural of class name and primary key named "id"):

class Shop extends Eloquent {}

Using custom table name

protected $table = 'my_shops';

Javascript object to URL encoded query string converter. Code extracted from jQuery.param() and boiled down to bare metal js. Should handle deep/nested objects and arrays in the same manner as jQuery's ajax functionality.
var objectToQueryString = function (a) {
var prefix, s, add, name, r20, output;
s = [];
r20 = /%20/g;
add = function (key, value) {
// If value is a function, invoke it and return its value
value = ( typeof value == 'function' ) ? value() : ( value == null ? "" : value );
s[ s.length ] = encodeURIComponent(key) + "=" + encodeURIComponent(value);
};
if (a instanceof Array) {
