Set a Default Push Remote with git
During my early days of git usage, my config allowed me to simply type git push instead of git push {origin} {branch_name} which I need to now. Up until recently I needed to type out the long version...(I know)...which was incredibly annoying because I like using detailed branch names.
I'd finally had enough of the copy and paste branch name madness and decided I wanted git push to always push to my origin and the same branch name:
git config --global push.default current
There are a number of push.default values you can use but in most cases, especially when you have a GitHub workflow, current is likely the value you want to use. Also, since we're using --global, this will be the default for all repositories!

I work with an awesome cast of developers at Mozilla, and one of them in Daniel Buchner. Daniel's shared with me an awesome strategy for detecting when nodes have been injected into a parent node without using the deprecated DOM Events API.

Your early CSS books were instrumental in pushing my love for front end technologies. What was it about CSS that you fell in love with and drove you to write about it?
At first blush, it was the simplicity of it as compared to the table-and-spacer...

When I first wrote MooTools ElementFilter, I didn't think much of it. Fast forward eight months later and I've realized I've used the plugin a billion times. Hell, even one of the "big 3" search engines is using it for their maps application.

One of the little known JavaScript events is the image onError event. This event is triggered when an image 404's out because it doesn't exist. Broken images can make your website look unprofessional and it's important to fix broken images as soon as possible.
Thanks for sharing, David. That’ll save me considerable time.
Love this one ! Thank you for sharing.
For anyone who doesn’t want to set it local, you can also do git push origin –set-upstream per your local branches: https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Branching-Remote-Branches
How do you set the default for pull? For an open source fork I have, I want
