I'm hoping that people will post unusual or little known facts here. It would be proper to include a link to a source for confirmation. Here's a start. Speedy Gonzales was banned by the Cartoon Network for being an offensive stereotype, only to be returned after mass protest by the …

About 3 days ago. My laptop started behaving strangely (I'm on it, right now). I let it fall couple of times, but that was really some time ago about 3 months. Everything worked fine, no errors, crashes, "instant deaths". But recently, as said, 3 days ago. Laptop popped me out …

`l(x)` is my shortcut to `console.log(x)`. `item.php` has text "EYES!!", just that. var session = $.get("item.php", function(data) { session = data; }) l(session); // *all XHR flags in an object, responseText ("EYES!!"), status (200) etc. $.get("item.php", function(data) { session = data; }) l(session); // undefined $.get("item.php", function(data) { l(data) }) …

I have main PHP file, and dozen of less files, something like modules, they work this way (imaginary file): if ($_GET["action"] == "login") { require_once("login.php"); return login_something($_GET["credit"]); } That `require_once();` and `return function(data);` recur a lot in my code. It looks kinda nasty, is there no way to make this …

$(document.getElementById("item1"), document.getElementById("item2")).click(function () { $(this).fadeOut(); }); <span id="item1">This is item 1</span><br /> <span id="item2">This is item 2</span> span#item1 { color: red; } span#item2 { color: green; } `span#item1` is affected. `span#item2` not, that means I made mistake in syntax. Is there a way to get it to work. I know …

Assume you guys are done with your professional projects. Do you write explanation of working of your projects in the comments in the code. Or do you write entire documentation addressing every variable and function? Or do you do both? If you do both, how do you avoid repeating yourself? …

Things like maintenance, website background, website title, favicon etc., where would it be best to store them? It would be single array of items. Do I just write it in flat CSV file, flat XML file, or use database for it (sounds pretty stupid to create single-row-table)? (*sorry for mess …

I take two versions of Open Sans from Google Fonts' servers. Regular and a bold one. As soon as page loads, the font is shown nicely. The idea is something like this a.link { font-weight: 400; } a.link.selected { font-weight: 800; } There's jQuery snippet that says that as soon …

Currently I have something like this (a bit modified): function function1($param) { $ans = @file_get_contents($param); if (!$ans) return ("Failure"); return json_decode($ans, true); } Extremely straight forward. However, the `file_get_contents()` gets answer from an API, that has proven to be a little stinky boa. It sometimes answers incorrectly, or "Access Denied" …
