<%= myString %>

In ASP.NET 4, there is a new shorthand which also html encodes your output string:

<%: myString %>

enjoy!

1. regex vs parsing

Listerine has 2 modes. One is “columns” which basically creates a user-set number of columns on the page and then evenly distributes the list items between columns. The other mode is “grid” which is more of a tile-like display.

simple columns example:

$('.manufacturer_list_container').listerine({
cols: 3,
transform: 'columns'
});

Download the code here.

1. mentally mutilated

• Play MORE video games.  Try and beat them too since I have a nasty habit of just dropping them midway through.
• Learn Python and Java.
• Try and complete more of my programming side projects instead of leaving them half-done (this seems to be a recurring theme in my life).
• Learn to drive stick.
• Try and do some more grad school classes.  I had put them off to pay off some debt first, but I should really try and get this done.
• Pay off debt.
• Read more books.
• Be less political.

I have managed to actually beat more of the video games I started playing this year rather than leaving them unfinished. Some exceptions include Castlevania and Oblivion. Now that SWTOR has come out, I’ll probably leave those unfinished for a while though. I’ve managed to learn a bit of python, as well as learned to use git to publish some of the stuff I’ve learned to the web. I didn’t get around to learning stick or take more grad school classes. Due to unforeseen circumstances, I wasn’t able to save up as much money as I would have liked this past year to pay off debt. I did manage to read a lot more books though and I think I’ve become a bit less political. All in all, not a bad run of resolutions.

For this next year, I’ll keep the resolutions simple.

• Start working out more and possibly start a martial arts class.
• Pay off debt.
• Start working on a video game project.
• Learn, learn, learn. Always try to continue the learning process.

Steve Jobs has died at age 56. The internet has gone insane with everyone and their mother trying to eulogize Jobs. I even read an article where the author said he was “Moses in a turtleneck.” That’s just crazy, but whatever. While I didn’t agree with his business practices or philosophy, I acknowledge his role as a tech giant and someone who helped shape the industry we work in today. RIP. It will be interesting to see where Apple goes from here without Jobs at the helm.

You can view the code here.

To use it, you have to change this section at the bottom of the file.

if __name__ == "__main__":
    reactor.connectTCP("YOUR_IRC_SERVER_HOST",
                       IRC_SERVER_HOST_PORT,
                       ShibalBotFactory("YOUR_IRC_CHANNEL",
                                        "YOUR_IRCBOT_NICK",
                                        True, False))
    reactor.run()

Just change the parameters to your own IRC server address, server port, IRC channel, and bot nickname and you’re good to go. Some Todo’s include adding some code to fetch the titles of url’s pasted in the channel, making it modular so you can just drop in scripts instead of having to change the main file, and updating the quotes module to not load the entire quotes file at once (in case the file becomes huge).

1. Script to sync friends list across multiple reddit accounts

The script is being hosted on github and the link is here.

I developed the script using Python 2.7.2 so I don’t even know if it is compatible with Python 3.x. Using the script is fairly easy. Just edit the top of the file above the line that says “DO NOT MODIFY BELOW THIS LINE”.

Example:

login_info = [
["user1", "pass1"],
["user2", "pass2"],
["user3", "pass3"]
]

add_self_to_friends should be either "True" or "False"
(without quotations)

I think I’ll add in some logic to do interactive input if no settings are detected in the file. I’m also going to change the script to do dom parsing as opposed to regex because the regex could run into some weird issues (I know I’ve said dom parsing is a hassle before, but the goal here is to learn as much Python as possible so I’ll try attacking problems from all angles to learn everything).
