An implementation of the Bjorklund algorithm in JavaScript

Inspired by the paper 'The Euclidean Algorithm Generates Traditional Musical Rhythms' 
by Godfried Toussaint

This is a port of the original algorithm by E. Bjorklund which I
found in the paper 'The Theory of Rep-Rate Pattern Generation in the SNS Timing Systems' by
E. Bjorklund.

Latency numbers every programmer should know

L1 cache reference ......................... 0.5 ns
Branch mispredict ............................ 5 ns
L2 cache reference ........................... 7 ns
Mutex lock/unlock ........................... 25 ns
Main memory reference ...................... 100 ns             
Compress 1K bytes with Zippy ............. 3,000 ns  =   3 µs
Send 2K bytes over 1 Gbps network ....... 20,000 ns  =  20 µs
SSD random read ........................ 150,000 ns  = 150 µs

Read 1 MB sequentially from memory ..... 250,000 ns = 250 µs

Trello CSS Guide

“I perfectly understand our CSS. I never have any issues with cascading rules. I never have to use !important or inline styles. Even though somebody else wrote this bit of CSS, I know exactly how it works and how to extend it. Fixes are easy! I have a hard time breaking our CSS. I know exactly where to put new CSS. We use all of our CSS and it’s pretty small overall. When I delete a template, I know the exact corresponding CSS file and I can delete it all at once. Nothing gets left behind.”

You often hear updog saying stuff like this. Who’s updog? Not much, who is up with you?

FreeBSD on a MacBook Pro

Since 2008 or 2009 I work on Apple hardware and OS: back then I grew tired of Linux desktop (which is going to be MASSIVE NEXT YEAR, at least since 2001), and switched to something that Just Works. Six years later, it less and less Just Works, started turning into spyware and nagware, and doesn't need much less maintenance than Linux desktop — at least for my work, which is system administration and software development, probably it is better for the mythical End User person. Work needed to get software I need running is not less obscure than work I'd need to do on Linux or othe Unix-like system. I am finding myself turning away from GUI programs that I used to appreciate, and most of the time I use OSX to just run a terminal, Firefox, and Emacs. GUI that used to be nice and unintrusive, got annoying. Either I came full circle in the last 15 years of my computer usage, or the OSX experience degraded in last 5 years. Again, this is from a sysadmin/developer ki

Pitchfork’s Product team is hiring. We're looking for a sharp, creative front-end developer excited about pushing hard on UI and UX across all platforms. Your work will be seen daily by millions around the world, and you'll be a part of a small team of designers and developers whose work has been praised for redefining online music journalism and influencing the medium itself.

Our work environment is fast-paced and intimate: we all work very closely, and everyone has say in new ideas, features, and approach. You should be someone constantly learning about new technology and keenly aware of its practical applications and limitations. It should go without saying that you’re willing to take on any task, regardless of size or glory. Everyone here wears many hats, and no job is too small for anyone. Strong communication skills are a must, as is the desire to teach as much as you learn. A love for music doesn’t hurt, either.
