December Update

By K -
This month I managed to finish:




Watched all How To Draw videos on HowCast
What was good in these series is to see how eraser can be used to draw :)
Rating: 5/10





The Tree Butcher by Andrzej Pilipiuk
This is really nice collection of 12 short stories. Andrzej Pilipiuk have endless ideas how history could have been, how aliens may live and even how magic may work. This is really good book:)
Rating: 8/10


Tricket by Kevin Hearne
In my opinion this is best book in a series so far. For sure it is the longest :) Fast and easy to read, it's hard to resist reading when you start so it's really good to read on holiday :)

Trapped by Kevin Hearne
This one fortunately starts at the good time, but I think a little that this book could be better. Ending was unexpected but probably explains why next book is called Hunted ;)
From me: 6/10.



The Wit and Wisdom of Tyrion Lannister. Autor: George R. R. Martin.
This one is not really a book in itself, it's just a series of quotes from his other books. It itself it's fun to read for all of fans of Tyrion Lannister character :)
Rating: 5/10.

How to simulate slow connection (developer proxy in Node.js)

By K -

Update: If you use Chrome then you can use "Throttling" so simulate slow network for all your assets. This should be easier than proxy. Toggle device mode   Choose Network type. Refresh the page https://developer.chrome.com/devtools/docs/device-mode  Proxy: For some time I wanted to use some proxy for development and testing of eg. slow internet connection, but it was hard to find something useful and free. I know there is Charles but buy it to use it at most one in a month is not for me. I started thinking about Node.js, maybe I can write proxy for me? But fortunately I found one. https://github.com/nodejitsu/node-http-proxy With this module I can write really short code to create slow server: var http = require('http'), httpProxy = require('http-proxy'); httpProxy.createServer(function (req, res, proxy) { var buffer = httpProxy.buffer(req); setTimeout(function () { proxy.proxyRequest(req, res, { host:

Safari Mobile CSS VW and VH units bug.

Recently we have created new version of mobil.aftenposten.no but soon after serving it to some users we spot this tweet:  https://twitter.com/Al3x4nd3rR/status/452047498111369216 . Basically titles were missing.... Then it started our effort to reproduce this bug. ... It was nightmare! First how to reproduce it: Open  http://krzychukula.github.io/vw_bfcache/  in Mobile Safari.  Click "Go to another page" link Leave phone for 60 seconds (longer is better) Click back button If you were lucky you should see some missing paragraphs and missing green boxes. How it looks: Bug: This one uses vw and vh for font-size. Both are 0 so we can see only 2 from 8 paragraphs. Those two are using only em for font-size. I was curious if it's only for font-size so I have added another test. I have added two boxes with width and height set in vw and vh with green background color. They parents have red background for contrast.  Most of t
