Nginx Basics

#Nginx Basics for Ubuntu

Please see http://wiki.nginx.org/Main for more information. See http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2012/11/how-to-set-up-a-safe-and-secure-web-server/ for a tutorial on how to install Nginx.

##Installation To install, you can install the version which is in the standard Ubuntu repositories but it is normally quite old and will not have the latest security patches. The best way is to update the repositories first:

apt-get update
apt-get install python-software-properties

apt-get upgrade

How to use Tim Pope's Pathogen

How to use Tim Pope’s Pathogen

I’ll assume you are on Linux or Mac OSX. For Windows, replace ~/.vim/ with $HOME\vimfiles\ and forward slashes with backward slashes.

The idea

Vim plugins can be single scripts or collections of specialized scripts that you are supposed to put in “standard” locations under your ~/.vim/ directory. Syntax scripts go into ~/.vim/syntax/, plugin scripts go into ~/.vim/plugin, documentation goes into ~/.vim/doc/ and so on. That design can lead to a messy config where it quickly becomes hard to manage your plugins.

This is not the place to explain the technicalities behind Pathogen but the basic concept is quite straightforward: each plugin lives in its own directory under ~/.vim/bundle/, where each directory simulates the standard structure of your ~/.vim/ directory.

A Guide to Functional Programming Lingo for JavaScripters

A Guide to Functional Programming Lingo for JavaScripters

Functional programming gets a bad wrap about being too hard for mere mortals to comprehend. This is nonsense. The concepts are actually quite simple to grasp.

The jargon is the hardest part. A lot of that vocabulary comes from a specialized field of mathematical study called category theory (with a liberal sprinkling of type theory and abstract algebra). This sounds a lot scarier than it is. You can do this!

All examples using ES6 syntax. wrap (foo) => bar means:

function wrap (foo) {
