Simple way to get dominant colors from an image in Python

import sys
def get_colors(image_file, numcolors=10, resize=150):
# Resize image to speed up processing
img = Image.open(image_file)
img = img.copy()
img.thumbnail((resize, resize))

Facebook Page Categories

All of the categories!

I wrote a really simple JavaScript script that uses jQuery to extract all the categories from Facebook's "Create a page" page.

Instructions

  1. Navigate to the Create a page page.
  2. jQuerify the page.
  3. Open up your JavaScript console of choice and run the following script:

JavaScript: Find the angle between two points
var p1 = {

y: 20

var p2 = {
x: 40,
y: 40

A regular expression to match lone surrogates only

// The goal is to match lone surrogates, i.e. any high surrogates
// (`[\uD800-\uDBFF]`) that are not directly followed by a low surrogate
// (`[\uDC00-\uDFFF]`), and any low surrogates (`[\uDC00-\uDFFF]`) that are not

JavaScript code for generating Firebase Push IDs
/**
* Fancy ID generator that creates 20-character string identifiers with the following properties:
*
* 1. They're based on timestamp so that they sort *after* any existing ids.
* 2. They contain 72-bits of random data after the timestamp so that IDs won't collide with other clients' IDs.
* 3. They sort *lexicographically* (so the timestamp is converted to characters that will sort properly).
* 4. They're monotonically increasing. Even if you generate more than one in the same timestamp, the
* latter ones will sort after the former ones. We do this by using the previous random bits
* but "incrementing" them by 1 (only in the case of a timestamp collision).
