I totally agree with the first comment of [Wayback/Archive] Naming Files and Directories the Right Way – YouTube as it holds not just for file management, but for naming anything including software development:
I’ve watched many videos on file management, but this one explains naming very clearly.
- 0:31 Rule 1: No Spaces
- 2:40 Rule 2: Avoid Special Characters
- 3:43 Rule 3: Be Descriptively Concise
- 4:24 Rule 4: Case Sensitivity
- 5:00 Rule 5: Dates and Sorting
- 6:40 Rule 6: Be Consistent!

A cool way to unit-test JavaScript code on the browser side is [Wayback/Archive] Getting Started | QUnit:
To get started with QUnit in the browser, create a simple HTML file called test.html and include the following markup:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Test Suite</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://code.jquery.com/qunit/qunit-2.19.4.css">
<body>
<div id="qunit"></div>
<div id="qunit-fixture"></div>
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/qunit/qunit-2.19.4.js"></script>
</body>
That’s all the markup you need to start writing tests. Note that this loads the library from the jQuery CDN.
I was so glad to find QUnit via the below links as I unconsciously wanted such a thing for a very very long time.
You can either run it locally or remotely or from the jQuery CDN as both it
- is a Node.js module so the source files are all available on the jQuery CDN
- it does not require the Node.js to load so it can run from any location you want (that CDN, locally or another on-line location)

This is a follow-up on Bookmarklet for Archive.is to navigate to the canonical link which can be accessed from multiple URLs, some through redirection:
You can see the difference in these archived links (the navivate was a typo that I only spotted after the original blog post got published):
I wanted a Bookmarklet to find the last link; the one in the referenced blog post didn’t.

Reminder: only do this over a trusted network (use VPN!)
Apple uses very different terminology than Microsoft, and even they went from Microsoft Terminal Services (and its client mstsc.exe) via Remote Desktop Services (often abbreviated to RDP) and since 2024 – from non-Windows clients – “Windows App“.
For Apple, there are various terms:
So below are some links so I have an overview somewhere.
