Setting up Pi Zero OTG - The quick way (No USB keyboard, mouse, HDMI monitor needed)

More details - http://blog.gbaman.info/?p=791

For this method, alongside your Pi Zero, MicroUSB cable and MicroSD card, only an additional computer is required, which can be running Windows (with Bonjour, iTunes or Quicktime installed), Mac OS or Linux (with Avahi Daemon installed, for example Ubuntu has it built in).
1. Flash Raspbian Jessie full or Raspbian Jessie Lite onto the SD card.
2. Once Raspbian is flashed, open up the boot partition (in Windows Explorer, Finder etc) and add to the bottom of the config.txt file dtoverlay=dwc2 on a new line, then save the file.
3. If using a recent release of Jessie (Dec 2016 onwards), then create a new file simply called ssh in the SD card as well. By default SSH i

#Understanding closures, callbacks and promises

For a code newbie like myself, callbacks, closures and promises are scary JavaScript concepts.

10 months into my full-time dev career, and I would struggle to explain these words to a peer.

So I decided it was time to face my fears, and try to get my head around each concept.

Here are the notes from my initial reading. I'll continue to refine them as my understanding improves.

Raspberry Pi Zero OTG Mode

Simple guide for setting up OTG modes on the Raspberry Pi Zero - By Andrew Mulholland (gbaman).

The Raspberry Pi Zero (and model A and A+) support USB On The Go, given the processor is connected directly to the USB port, unlike on the B, B+ or Pi 2 B, which goes via a USB hub.
Because of this, if setup to, the Pi can act as a USB slave instead, providing virtual serial (a terminal), virtual ethernet, virtual mass storage device (pendrive) or even other virtual devices like HID, MIDI, or act as a virtual webcam!
It is important to note that, although the model A and A+ can support being a USB slave, they are missing the ID pin (is tied to ground internally) so are unable to dynamically switch between USB master/slave mode. As such, they default to USB master mode. There is no easy way to change this right now.
It is also important to note, that a USB to UART serial adapter is not needed for any of these guides, as may be documented elsewhere across the int

Huh?

So basically FlowType doesn't know about CSS Modules, a really handy way of dealing with the plagues of CSS in codebases (global variables and dependency wackiness mainly).

What WebPack allows us to do is "require" CSS files and use their class names:

import styles from "my_styles.css";
import React from "react";

Use these rapid keyboard shortcuts to control the GitHub Atom text editor on macOS.

	// This is a very bare-bones (and incomplete) implementation of the idea
	// behind Promise, using a new function called Commitment:

	const Commitment = function(func) {
	this.state = 'PENDING' // will be changed to 'FULFILLED' or 'REJECTED'

	const resolve = (result) => {
	this.state = 'FULFILLED'
	this.resolver && this.resolver(result)
	}

	// use Prompt like normal... magic happens in getUserConfirmation
	class App extends Component {
	render () {
	return (
	<Router getUserConfirmation={getUserConfirmation}>
	{...}
	<Prompt
	when={formIsHalfFilledOut}
	message="Are you sure you want to leave?"
	/>

	// Usage:
	//
	// function loader() {
	// return new Promise((resolve) => {
	// if (process.env.LAZY_LOAD) {
	// require.ensure([], (require) => {
	// resolve(require('./SomeComponent').default);

	* Base contract that all upgradeable contracts should use.
	*
	* Contracts implementing this interface are all called using delegatecall from
	* a dispatcher. As a result, the _sizes and _dest variables are shared with the
	* dispatcher contract, which allows the called contract to update these at will.
	*
	* _sizes is a map of function signatures to return value sizes. Due to EVM
	* limitations, these need to be populated by the target contract, so the
	* dispatcher knows how many bytes of data to return from called functions.
