Old Gists

Recently found out I can refer directly to different revisions of a Gist, by adding the hashtag of a revision.

Instead of <script src="https://gist.github.com/maartenl/6048082.js"></script>.

This <script src="https://gist.github.com/maartenl/6048082/95c021aa4e2b1dc1570b5f70c2dcc95a26944fe1.js"></script> will show the revision with hashtag 95c021aa4e2b1dc1570b5f70c2dcc95a26944fe1.

It's very REST-y this way.

It provides an ideal way to show different refactorings in a blog.

Awesome!

Oh, wow. I just find out from this article Java / Oracle SOA blog: JPA SQL and Fetching tuning ( EclipseLink ), that I can embed code from gist into my blog.



Cool!

Trying out some code formatting.

import java.util.List;

public class MyObject
{
    /**
     * Stuff
     * @author Turbo
     */
    public void doStuff() 
    {
        // should be some stuff here.
        System.out.println("Hello, world!");
    }

}

Code formatter was found right here.
