Git Branch Autocompletion


Naming git branches is something most of us have down to a science. My branch naming pattern is usually {issue number}-short-feature-description, though many developers prefer to lead with the description and end with the issue.

The content security policy spec has been an amazing front-end security tool to help prevent XSS and other types of attacks. I’d go as far to say that every site should implement as specific CSP as possible. If you aren’t familiar with CSPs, here’s a quick example:...

Is Web Design Easier or Harder Than it was 10 Years Ago?


Is it harder or easier to build a website now than 10 years ago? Has the bar gone up or down? I don't have any data for you, but I can shell out some loosey-goosey opinions. HTML HTML5 was the only big HTML change in the last decade, and it wasn't particularly dramatic. It's cool it's the looser...

Mirror Android Device to Computer


As I continue my adventure into Android development, pair programming has been a huge help in learning this new platform. When it’s time to build and run the app, relying on the emulator is a fools’ game — the emulator is slow and it’s hard to reliably simulate gestures....

How to Create a QR Code


QR codes aren’t everyone’s cup of tea but I quite like them. If I see something I want to remember or check out later, especially when on the road, it’s super easy to take a quick picture — it’s much easier than trying to remember a URL and much faster than typing...

Mercurial Tips


While most of the world seems to be using git for version control, Mozilla continues to use Mercurial (hg) to manage the Firefox source code. As a git and GitHub lover, it took me a while to get used to Mercurial. I don’t consider myself a hg expert but I know enough to complete...

How to Crop Videos


During a recent episode of the Script and Style podcast, I had noticed that the video recording had showed a bit of our internal chat that wasn’t necessary for our viewers to see. While there’s nothing wrong with giving viewers a peek into the show preparation, presenting the best...

Fix Touch Bar Volume Buttons


The touch bar on MacBooks has been a source of controversy since the beginning. Many mourned the loss of the escape key, while others refused to buy a new laptop to avoid the touch bar completely. I’ve not had many issues with the touch bar but mostly because I don’t really use it. One necessary...

Checkout the Last Public Revision with Mercurial


I’ve always preferred git over Mercurial (hg) because the feature branch workflow makes organizing code and working off of master very easy. You don’t get that with vanilla mercurial — instead, commits can just sort of apply on top of each other, without much organization....
