Use one of these techniques to install node and npm without having to sudo. Discussed in more detail at http://joyeur.com/2010/12/10/installing-node-and-npm/ Note: npm >=0.3 is *safer* when using sudo.
echo 'export PATH=$HOME/local/bin:$PATH' >> ~/.bashrc
. ~/.bashrc
mkdir ~/local
mkdir ~/node-latest-install
cd ~/node-latest-install
curl http://nodejs.org/dist/node-latest.tar.gz | tar xz --strip-components=1
./configure --prefix=~/local
make install # ok, fine, this step probably takes more than 30 seconds...

performance.now() polyfill (aka perf.now())
// @license http://opensource.org/licenses/MIT
// copyright Paul Irish 2015
// Date.now() is supported everywhere except IE8. For IE8 we use the Date.now polyfill
// github.com/Financial-Times/polyfill-service/blob/master/polyfills/Date.now/polyfill.js
// as Safari 6 doesn't have support for NavigationTiming, we use a Date.now() timestamp for relative values
// if you want values similar to what you'd get with real perf.now, place this towards the head of the page
// but in reality, you're just getting the delta between now() calls, so it's not terribly important where it's placed

Glass Labs experiments: what they do

Glass Lab Experiments

Updated: July 2nd (XE7)

Ron Amadeo of Android Police did a review of these experiments: http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/05/24/google-glasss-hidden-labs-features-ok-glass-everywhere-web-browsing-video-stabilization-and-more-video/

Google Glass has a series of Labs experiments that can be enabled on engineering or userdebug builds. Using APKTool, I've removed that restriction and now they can be enabled with root access.

To start, for example, the SOUND_SEARCH lab, type in a root shell
