Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Marvin

Marvin

Marvin is an advanced AI that handles your javascript callbacks for you. It has been programmed by the Sirius Cybernetics Corporation with a Genuine People Personality (GPP).

Usage

You simply give Marvin a function you want to execute, and he takes care of it for you!

var marvin = require('marvin-ai')

marvin(function(cb) {
  setTimeout(function() {
    cb("complete!")
  },1000)
})
.on("thought",function(thought) {
  console.log(thought.name+": "+thought.message)
})
.on("complete",function(thought) {
  console.log(thought.name+": "+thought.message+"\nPayload: "+JSON.stringify(thought.arguments))
})

The way in which Marvin handles your function is non-deterministic, but here is an example output of the above code:

EALONE: I've been talking to your processor... It hates me.
EUNSATISFIED: Here I am, brain the size of a planet, and they ask me to handle a callback. Call that job satisfaction, 'cause I don't.
EDEPRESSED: I think you ought to know I'm feeling very depressed
ESORRY: Sorry, did I compute something wrong? Pardon me for breathing which I never do anyway so I don't know why I bother to say it oh God I'm so depressed.
Payload: {"0":"complete!"}

You may have noticed, Marvin is in the middle of an existential crises.

Features

  • Self Aware: Marvin is concious, and often contemplates the meaning of life.
  • Well commented: Check out Marvin's brain in index.js
  • Motivated: Not really.
  • Non-deterministic: Who knows if your callback was actually executed?

  • Ability to produce towels on the spot
