jQuery Autocomplete for Jekyll
After migrating my blog from Wordpress to Jekyll, one thing I was missing was a functional search box. I threw one together last night.
Oh Hai, Jekyll
After putting it off for too long, I’ve redesigned my blog using Jekyll and GitHub Pages. It ended up being a lot easier than I thought, and Jekyll can do some pretty sweet stuff.
PHP Script To Delete All WordPress Tables
I’ve had to do this a few times when I wasn’t able to just drop the entire database, so I threw together a small PHP script that will do it for you.
Asterisk Manager Commands
I’ve been playing around with the Asterisk Manager lately (which is pretty damn cool, if you ask me). There doesn’t seem to be a list of all the commands available on voip-info right now, so I’m posting these here for my own reference.
I (still) hate IE.
It’s funny how you forget how much Internet Explorer sucks until you have to write CSS for it again.
OS X: Fixing the Terminal
This might not be a problem for everyone, but I got used to using home, end, page up, and page down to navigate through the command line and documents through the console. I was quite surprised to see that these seemingly basic features were missing from OS X’s Terminal.app.
OS X - A Month Later
It took me a while to get used to the quirks, but I have not only gotten used to OS X, but it is now my favorite operating system.
OS X First Impressions
The font rendering is ruining my life.
Hurray Mac mini
I finally bit the bullet and bought one, and it’s delicious.
jQuery, nothin’ but love for ya
For the longest time, I was anti-javascript in just about every sense. Once I figured out how to do rollovers with CSS instead of JS, I pretty much abandoned all JS on my work. This was before Ajax was known for more than its grease fighting abilities on pans and other dirty dishes. Needless to say, it was only a matter of time before I had to use Javascript - and it was an absolute disaster. Of course, now I know it was simply my inexperience with Javascript (and more importantly, cross-browser Javascript) that made it such a disaster. Now I know there are great tools already made to do most of this stuff for you.
