MarsEdit, Blogo, MacJournal trial

MarsEdit 沒有辦法所見及所得嗎？
感覺好像要在 HTML 中打，怎麼可能啊？？？？

Blogo 可以所見及所得編輯，但 Preview 有特殊格式，看起來是舒服，不過不是直接重現Blog 該有的樣子，而且沒辦法把之前的文章 copy and paste。

MacJournal 也可以所見及所得，但是要 update contents 好像不是很直覺，但是他的確可以 copy and paste, 目前感覺這個最適用。

Setting MySQL to Use UTF-8 on MAMP (MySQL 5.5.9, or 5+)

I wanted to setup MySQL to use utf-8 on the MAMP installation on my Mac. I tried the instructions from this article: http://cameronyule.com/2008/07/configuring-mysql-to-use-utf-8/ However, I kept getting error messages that are similar to this one [ERROR] /Applications/MAMP/Library/bin/mysqld: unknown variable 'default-collation=utf8_general_ci' I did some search and realized that several variables are deprecated. Reference: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/server-options.html Therefore, I added the following lines into /Applications/MAMP/conf/my.cnf [mysql] character-set-server=utf8 [client] character-set-server=utf8 [mysqld] character-set-server=utf8 collation-server=utf8_general_ci init-connect='SET NAMES utf8' I restarted the server and mysql run successfully with relevant variables being set correctly. In the "Variables" tab under phpMyAdmin interface (ex. http://localhost:8888/MAMP/?language=English) character set c...

ngrok, a service to help you get a public URL for your local webserver

If you are looking for options to test your web app hosted on your own machine (e.g., laptop) remotely with someone, I recommend using a service called ngrok. https://ngrok.com/ It has many usages, but in the context of testing an app hosted on your own machine, the most important part is giving you a public URL that will redirect all the requests to your local webserver (e.g., Apache, Nginx, or whatever server you are running). You can give this URL to a testing participant without the need to host the app on a remote server. For instance, if you are testing your app using a sever on your machine, typically you can access your app in a URL like: http://localhost:3000/?study=11 Using ngrok, you will have a dynamically generated URL like the following: https://3ebe3c019867.ngrok.io/ The service will redirect requests to https://3ebe3c019867.ngrok.io to http://localhost:3000 You can then share the following link with your testing participant for the participant to use your app. http...

How to update multiple fields in an SQL update statement

Syntax: /* the correct way of putting multiple fields together, using comma */ UPDATE `stories` SET `content`='Once upon a time ...', `update_time`=now() WHERE id=1; Note: there is no 'and' between the fields you are trying to update. You should use comma between each pair of the fields you are trying to update. Otherwise, you will likely get an '0' as the result value in the 'content' field without getting any error message. If you do the following, you will likely get an '0' in the 'content' field, without any error message /* the wrong way of putting multiple fields together, using 'and' */ UPDATE `stories` SET `content`='My Story' and `update_time`=now() WHERE id=1; See also: http://stackoverflow.com/a/7375371
