      • which was helpful, because
        • I didn't know what rules I was breaking.
      • And so it wasn't intentional breaking of rules.
        • I just did what seemed right to me,
        • but I didn't realize that I was doing things that other people wouldn't do.

    1. The key differences between #inject and #scan_left are: Incremental results: #scan_left returns a series of results after processing each element of the input series. #inject returns a single value, which equals the final result in the series returned by #scan_left. Laziness: #scan_left can preserve the laziness of the input series. As each incremental result is read from the output series, the actual calculation is lazily performed against the input. #inject cannot be a lazy operation in general, as its single result reflects a calculation across every element of the input series.

    1. This doesn't solve the problem of supporting where the users are; not everyone wants to use a rolling release, not everyone has the same kernel version, and so on. Not all distros support deb packages.If everyone was on Arch, then AUR would solve everyone's problem. If everyone was on Fedora, then RPM would solve everyone's problem but we don't have that universal packaging system.Freedom to pick and choose what you want to use on Linux is what makes it fun but for people that are trying to develop software and share it with their customers on linux, it's super complicated; they don't have a way to ship software to everyone in one simple package.Software devs can't just ship a deb package. That eliminates the large number of RPM based users such as Fedora, RedHat Fedora Enterprise, CentOS Stream or other distros. Then you have the Arch users, etc.That's what Flatpack/snap/appimage can help with.

    1. So you might ask what is the benefit of using the event dispatcher over just passing a prop down? In some scenarios, you will need to add an action to a button that is 3 or more components down and passing a prop all that way is considered prop drilling (it is frowned upon by some, meh each to their own). However in the case of using an event dispatcher, even though these events don’t bubble, we can easily pass them up using a shortcut that Svelte has.
    1. None of what I’ve said is provided out of the box with apt/deb, and they can only be done in ways that are way to much complex for most non-technical users and in some points they require more work, and some things are simply not available with apt/deb, like the possibility to isolate dependencies, app confinement at the level snaps provide, the possibility to use the same package on other distros (including those that don’t have apt/deb) and different versions of the distro (same package will work on old and new versions independently on how it was built…
    2. This example of the chromium really shows that unless snaps or other similar format was used, applications would have to be sometime very heavily patched to work on older versions of systems to the point that it generates so much work that it would not be worth do to it otherwise, or at least not worth when the snap option exists and doesn’t require that much more work.
    3. snaps have many benefits that are huge: automatic updates List item shorter delivery times between develper and user possibility to use tracks and choose how much on the bleeding edge you want to be way more security and privacy, less dependency issues software available on the same versions independently of distributions and versions of distributions
    4. If folks want to get together and create a snap-free remix, you are welcome to do so. Ubuntu thrives on such contribution and leadership by community members. Do be aware that you will be retreading territory that Ubuntu developers trod in 2010-14, and that you will encounter some of the same issues that led them to embrace snap-based solutions. Perhaps your solutions will be different. .debs are not perfect, snaps are not perfect. Each have advantages and disadvantages. Ubuntu tries to use the strengths of both.
    1. The best thing about an open source operating system, such as Linux, is that you can customize it as much as you want, ranging from default applications such as file managers, music players, web browsers, and text editors etc. to more vital system components such as the kernel, display managers, and terminal consoles. You can do this simply by downloading new application software and replacing the old ones with that, or editing system components by making changes in the source code of your operating system. The display manager is one such system component that you can replace simply by running a few commands mentioned in this article.

    1. Better contribution workflow: We will be using GitHub’s contribution tools and features, essentially moving MDN from a Wiki model to a pull request (PR) model. This is so much better for contribution, allowing for intelligent linting, mass edits, and inclusion of MDN docs in whatever workflows you want to add it to (you can edit MDN source files directly in your favorite code editor).

    1. They are rapid to develop, cross-platform and responsive by nature. JavaScript provides a lot of frameworks (such as Vue, React) and dedicated front-end component libraries to boost productivity (Bootstrap, Material UI). You write your code once and deploy you application on every platform;

    1. One of Svelte's advantages, for me, is that I can test out ideas with relatively few lines of code. the #with feature could save me from adding a separate component for the content of an #each loop. I get frustrated when I have to create a new file, move the content of the #each clause, import it as a component, and add attributes and create exports for that, and implement events to send messages back, and event handlers, when I just wanted to test a small feature.

    1. After the initial backup, future backups are differential, both in the files that are transferred and the files that are stored on your behalf.

      I guess git can help with the differential part of the backup, but how exactly does it? In order for it to help with transfer from the subject server, wouldn't it have to keep the git repo on that server? Otherwise wouldn't it have to transfer everything to the remote cloud git repo so that git can do the diff there?

      Makes me wonder if simple rsync wouldn't be more efficient than all this.

    1. The “universal” label that has been slapped on to it is superfluous, but it does have its merits. Now that we have a commonly known term to refer to environment agnostic JavaScript code, it allows library authors to list it as a feature and be fashionable doing it. I’m happy with the term “universal” being fashionable because it makes developers think about their dependencies on the runtime environment. In the end this will help the JavaScript ecosystem mature and allow libraries to be used everywhere.
    1. polymorphism cuts down the work of the developer because he can now create a sort of general class with all the attributes and behaviors that he envisions for it. When the time comes for the developer to create more specific subclasses with certain unique attributes and behaviors, the developer can simply alter code in the specific portions where the behaviors differ. All other portions of the code can be left as is.

    1. Directly blocking the vendor scripts (using another prior blocking method), then executing them only after consent has been collected. This method requires more implementation work and it’s a bit slower in terms of execution time, but it allows personalized ads to be served from the first page view (where consent hasn’t been collected yet) and gives you more direct and solid control in regards to ensuring compliance.

      pros:

      • allows personalized ads to be served from the first page view (where consent hasn’t been collected yet)
      • gives you more direct and solid control in regards to ensuring compliance.
    1. Don't be discouraged when you get feedback about a method that isn't all sunshine and roses. Facets has been around long enough now that it needs to maintain a certain degree of quality control, and that means serious discernment about what goes into the library. That includes having in depth discussions the merits of methods, even about the best name for a method --even if the functionality has been accepted the name may not.

    1. The user's usual setup (command aliases, environment variables, umask, etc.) are in effect when remote commands are run. The common practice of setting an account's shell to /bin/false to disable it will prevent the owner from running any commands, should authentication still accidentally succeed for some reason.
    1. Unlike similar tools that are scheduled to take backups at a fixed time of the day, Timeshift is designed to run once every hour and take snapshots only when a snapshot is due. This is more suitable for desktop users who keep their laptops and desktops switched on for few hours daily. Scheduling snapshots at a fixed time on such users will result in missed backups since the system may not be running when the snapshot is scheduled to run. By running once every hour and creating snapshots when due, Timeshift ensures that backups are not missed.
    1. One of the most important features of rsync is the method it uses to synchronize preexisting files that have changed in the source directory. Rather than copying the entire file from the source, it uses checksums to compare blocks of the source and target files. If all of the blocks in the two files are the same, no data is transferred. If the data differs, only the block that has changed on the source is transferred to the target.

    1. Theimpact on congestiondeserves further study. A significant portion of traffic in some cities, such as San Francisco and Los Angeles, is attributable to drivers searching for parking (Winston, 2013). Ridesharing means that people who use ridesharing instead of driving no longer need to search for these spaces, which could reduce congestion.Furthermore, there may be a reduction in congestion costs associated with taxis finding customers (to the extent that ridesharing substitutes for traditional taxi services).The overall impact on congestion is notclear, however,because more consumers will be making use of these services.Some consumers, for example, may switch from mass transit to ridesharing if they are perceived as substitutes. This shift could actually increase congestion

      shows how most traffic is because of people trying to find parking, while if using a ride sharing service there is no need for parking therefore congestion decreases.

    2. Ridesharing platforms canhave several economic benefits.7These platformsincrease the transportation options available to consumers and businessesand are therefore likely to significantly increase consumer welfare. Lyft andUbergivethe consumer multiple different types of rides to choose from.For example, riderscantypicallyrequest a normal car and ride from a partner driver, carpooling at a cheaper price,a ride in a large car,ora luxury car.8These ridesharing platforms may alsoencourage higher utilization of the existing vehicle stock. One study,performed in five cities, found that Uber drivers had higher capacity utilization rates than taxis, likely due to Uber’s more efficient ordering and pricing methods, its larger scale, as well as inefficiencies of taxi regulation (Cramer and Krueger, 2016).Some cities have allocateddedicated parking spots throughout the city to such ridesharing under the assumption that they may generate social benefits (Shaheen, 2010).

      Advantages for ride sharing platforms for the economy with case studies and primary research.

    3. 4trust in exchange, which makes use of buyerand seller ratings. They afford sellers (i.e., drivers) flexibility in when they choose to work.6Riders do not spend time paying for a ride because payment is done automatically with a credit cardwhen the ride is over. In addition, many ridesharing platforms have a transparent way of adjusting prices to balance supply and demandand thus promote economic efficiency(Hall and Nosko, 2015)

      Advantages on how technology makes the proces easier and more efficient

    4. hese platforms take advantage of GPS to arrange for the ride and help determine a driver’s best route. They also provide other benefits for riders and drivers, including measures of rider and driver quality to foster trust(Luca, 2016), and an efficient payment system, frequently using a credit card that is entered into the platform’s data base. The platforms also can help balance demand and supply by adjusting prices in real time to accommodate shortfalls in the supply of drivers or surges in demand.

      HUge advantages for consumers and participants

    5. Ridesharing platforms connect drivers and vehicles with consumers who want ridesat an agreed price.

      thats one of the main advantages to consumers, on the other hand if they take a normal cab they have no clue what they are going to pay

    1. Below I list a few advantages and drawbacks of anonymity where I assume that a drawback of anonymous review is an advantage of identified review and vice versa. Drawbacks Reviewers do not get credit for their work. They cannot, for example, reference particular reviews in their CVs as they can with publications. It is relatively “easy” for a reviewer to provide unnecessarily blunt or harsh critique. It is difficult to guess if the reviewer has any conflict of interest with the authors by being, for example, a competing researcher interested in stalling the paper’s publication. Advantages Reviewers do not have to fear “payback” for an unfavourable review that is perceived as unfair by the authors of the work. Some (perhaps especially “high-profile” senior faculty members) reviewers might find it difficult to find the time to provide as thorough a review as they would ideally like to, yet would still like to contribute and can perhaps provide valuable experienced insight. They can do so without putting their reputation on the line.
    1. With most journals, if I submit a paper that is rejected, that information is private and I can re-submit elsewhere. In open review, with a negative review one can publicly lose face as well as lose the possibility of re-submitting the paper. Won’t this be a significant disincentive to submit? This is precisely what we are trying to change. Currently, scientists can submit a paper numerous times, receive numerous negative reviews and ultimately publish their paper somewhere else after having “passed” peer review. If scientists prefer this system then science is in a dangerous place. By choosing this model, we as scientists are basically saying we prefer nice neat stories that no one will criticize. This is silly though because science, more often than not, is not neat and perfect. The Winnower believes that transparency in publishing is of the utmost importance. Going from a closed anonymous system to an open system will be hard for many scientists but I believe that it is the right thing to do if we care about the truth.
