910Unresponsive Atom Editor on OSX

Atom is great, current, hackable and my current go-to editor, but from time-to-time it does like to open a certain directory. It keeps timing out, restarts of the Editor or the Computer don't help.

Clearing the window state helps.

898AWS S3, Vue and History Mode

Single-page Applications (SPA) make with Vue or React can take advantage of HTML5's History Mode, where the URL in the browser window is changing - but all the changes are happening in the client. This works great, if the user only follows the links, but it breaks when the user wants to reload the page or goes to and unknown (404) page. The server kicks on and gives you a 404.

There are ways to deal with this, vue-router has a list: https://router.vuejs.org/en/essentials/history-mode.html

Basically, what's happening: rewrite all requests to index.html - the entry point of your SPA. We will also have to deal with 404 on the client side, but that's also described above. Origin -> Origins Path to path in S3. No need to adjust index and error paths in S3

893MySQL 5.6, 5.5 and utf8mb4

I encountered a situation where my dev MySQL was 5.6 and running with a utf8mb4_unicode_ci Server Connection Collation, and the remote MySQL with 5.5 and a utf8mb4_general_ci collation.

Needless to say, the remote DB did not like the dumps from my dev DB.

Quick and Dirty Solution:

replace('utf8mb4_unicode_520_ci', 'utf8mb4_general_ci') replace('utf8mb4_unicode_ci', 'utf8mb4_general_ci')

mysql utf8 utf8mb4_general_ci utf8mb4_unicode_ci
