Code Kata: Parsing Strings Like "5mb" Into A Number Of Bytes In Lucee CFML 5.3.7.47
Posted on Jan 25, 2021 at 2:29 PM
Would be kind of cool if formatBytes didn't require a unit. So if I pass X to it, it recognizes, oh this is greater than 1 meg but less than a gif, so show it as N megs. Oh, this is greater than a gig, so show it as N gigs. Basically, apply the best unit to it.... read more »

Proxying Amazon AWS S3 Pre-Signed-URL Uploads Using Netlify Functions
Posted on Sep 3, 2020 at 9:52 AM
I'm not sure it would work in this case, but don't forget that if you need to proxy URLs, you do not need to write a function on Netlify, you can do it with their redirects support: https://www.raymondcamden.com/2020/06/10/testing-netlifys-proxy-support-for-api-hiding... read more »

Using ColdFusion Tags In CFScript In Lucee CFML
Posted on Apr 9, 2020 at 4:50 PM
@Igor - a lot of things, they have a ton of open source contributions, they run a great conference, but most of all (for me) is the "box" command line, which lets you go into a directory, type "box server start", and it fires up a CF or Lucee server right from the directo... read more »

Using Chalk 2.0's Tagged Template Literals For Nested And Complex Styling
Posted on Jul 5, 2017 at 10:53 AM
I guess what I'm saying is - what is this? "the tagged templates are just for a small set of use-cases where the color requirements are significantly complex" Like - I'm not saying you would never have a reason for this - I just want to hear one. ;)... read more »

Using Chalk 2.0's Tagged Template Literals For Nested And Complex Styling
Posted on Jul 5, 2017 at 10:40 AM
I have to ask (and to be clear, "practicality" is rarely something I care about), but what is the *real* use for something like this? Don't get me wrong - I can definitely seeing using different colors in output to help point out success/error/warnings, but this seems *incredibly* complex ... read more »

Programming JavaScript Applications By Eric Elliott - Revisited
Posted on May 18, 2015 at 8:38 AM
Thanks for this review, I've added it to my queue. "Coming from a ColdFusion / J2E background, Node.js feels like a laughably brittle environment." Big plus one. The first time I discovered that a bug in a Node.js app could kill the whole thing I was really surprised. :)... read more »

Using ImgIX For On-Demand Image Processing At Web Scale In ColdFusion Applications
Posted on Nov 19, 2014 at 4:23 PM
Cool. Dina (and Ben, I apologize if this too far off topic, let me know) - in your pricing plans there is a price per render. If I'm doing a blur on an image, is that render charged every time or only once if the cached version is used?... read more »

Using ImgIX For On-Demand Image Processing At Web Scale In ColdFusion Applications
Posted on Nov 19, 2014 at 3:58 PM
@Dina: I get that but... shoot, even if you were Google itself, I'd not trust you to be up 100% of the time. If I knew that I needed a set of resized images from one source, I'm not sure why I'd keep calling your service for them. You didn't say though - are we allowed to "keep" the new ... read more »

Bind Your Error Handler Before Your Readable Handler When Using Node.js Streams
Posted on Sep 2, 2014 at 9:57 AM
To be honest, the whole "adventure" thing isn't really.. an adventure. Literally it doesn't come into play at all. You have N challenges and that's it. Now - they are *very* good challenges I think, don't get me wrong, but it isn't really a game per se.... read more »
