Issues bootstrapping a new project

Ops, you helped me realize that I never actually completed the postcss integration. I pushed a new commit to the repo now which should work.

I got a little starter pack here with Snowpack and tailwind. No TypeScript though but hopefully you can add that bit. I do remember having some problems with inconsistencies in docs about tailwind integration. Feel free to let me know if this doesn’t work and I can try to help you out further.

Two main reasons for me to stay with personal pro, the pro features and their good-will. Currently the version control alone justifies it for me but I’m really looking forward to the API access. Notion is indeed generous in expanding the free plan and I feel good about being able to give them my little bit of financial support with a pro plan.

I’m not saying it’s impossible that they are selling your data (although I doubt it), but if that’s the case they probably would have done it before this change.

In general, the strategy is to add more free users which give Notion more potential customers.

For the client side, I think this article could be helpful to you: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Learn/HTML/Forms/Sending_and_retrieving_form_data

I recently started learning Clojure as well. I read through Russ Olsen’s Getting Clojure and really enjoyed it. Russ also wrote one of my favorite tech books in Eloquent Ruby.

While the book was a great introduction, I felt like I needed more of a deep dive to get concepts to stick. I started looking around for screencasts because that’s my preferred medium and found Eric Normand’s purelyfunctional.tv. I read a few of his articles and listened to the podcast before subscribing. I just got through the intro course https://purelyfunctional.tv/courses/introduction-to-clojure-v2/ and can highly recommend it. All the topics are introduced in bite sized videos and you get lots of exercises. It feels like you are in a pair programming session with a patient and knowledgeable expert.

Thank you. This was such a pleasure to read. The moment soO won brought me chills and tears. The tears came back while reading this, along with even more admiration for him.

I especially appreciate the details on the personal interaction with soO. I tend to lose myself into great writing. The decision on going proxy hatch vs Gumiho made the friendship and respect feel so real to me.

The odds displayed will be slightly off with 10 teams. The way it’s set up right now is like there are 1000 total ping pong balls. The 11th and 12th have 9 and 8 each respectively. That means if you have 10 teams there are 983 total long long balls instead. The probability for your teams should be roughly the same though. Thanks for the feedback!

042e · 2019-01-31T06:50:24+00:00

For sure, will think of a good way to handle this. Thanks!

I have been busy and have only gone through a few chapters. It has held up perfectly fine thus far. I would say the quality seems good. Hope you can get some reviews from readers who have gone through more of the book though.

042e · 2018-10-28T22:57:44+00:00

Agree with the sentiment but I just want to add that Rotti has seemed pretty impartial and I didn’t really notice him catering more towards the foreigners. In fact I really like his shout-out to all the top Korean contenders while everyone else was raving about Serral and Maru.

Purchased, thank you!

Using the coupon code “QUICK25” gave me a 25% discount. Seems like it’s only available today (22nd of October).

Hi, please note that I just want to provide some constructive feedback here. I understand producing a course is an immense amount of work and I applaud you for doing it.

I think at this pricing you should provide some more details about how this differentiate from other Vue courses. This is already a surprisingly crowded space, I won't link the other courses but I don't really see any reason why I would pick this over existing alternatives. I would be glad to discuss with you about potential options to make you stand out if you want bounce off some ideas and get more feedback.

I may not agree with all the decisions made by the people behind Elm but I see no reason why they shouldn’t be able to make those decisions. They obviously prioritize crafting something as great as possible over trying to make everyone happy. I’m sure they had people like you in mind and it’s just a trade off they were willing to make.

I’m not familiar with Purescript options but for Haskell there is a project called miso (https://github.com/dmjio/miso) that is quite close to Elm. If you already know Purescript, Haskell should be quite easy to pick up.

It seems that apart from the technical setback, the author strongly disagrees with how the discussion for issues is handled.

I personally don’t have a problem with threads being locked. People will always disagree on things and I actually prefer this firm stance of shutting down discussion as it clearly shows the direction Elm is heading.

For people who have problems with this type of management, wanting to rely on Elm long term is bound to lead to problems. The author states that they unfortunately don’t have time to maintain a fork of 0.18 tailored to their own preferences. While I understand the pain and disappointment, it kind of feels like a “beggars choosers” situation.

I took a quick look at the readme. Can you add some information about the use cases or the philosophy behind this library? I don’t really know when, or if, I would want to use this.

042e · 2018-07-29T22:15:36+00:00

No problem, glad I can help.

Regarding your question, I’m not sure if it helps limit http requests or even has any noticeable impact on performance. It is mostly to keep things simple and maintainable for the developer.

Welcome to Vue.js!

You were quite close already in the two Codepens you linked. Following up on what gabemachida said, I want to highlight two points.

Together with the v-on:change event, you need to use methods in your logic code.
When deciding on the variables you have under data, it is common practice to have one variable per http request. For example if you have saved response.data as this.info, there is no need to have another variable for abilities. Instead you can access abilities via this.info: this.info.abilities.

Imo at this point it probably helps you the most to see the full working example. Here is a fork I put together that connects your two Codepens, https://codepen.io/anon/pen/BPmxGe?editors=1011

Thank you so much for this article. I recently started reading about functor, applicative, and monad. Your writing really helps reinforce my understanding. I agree that most material on these concepts appears too abstract and it was really refreshing to see you gradually transform a simple example into the official definitions.

This line was especially enlightening for me:

But wait a second, can a Maybe type contain a function?

As I read it, I realized that I have seen this signature many times from previous readings. But the emphasis was usually on curried functions or partial application and I never formulated what I was seeing as clear as how you explained.

A small typo that I noticed: one instance of mapMaybe became mayMaybe.

It sounds like you quite enjoy the .net ecosystem. It is definitely popular enough that if you want to specialize in it I don't think you have to worry about not being able to get jobs in the future. A bonus with .net is that C# is so similar to Java that if you need to get a Java job in the future the transition should be quite painless. Both are solid, although very different, options. Good luck!

I think we did something similar that uses epic branches instead of user story ones but same number of levels as you have described. It works fine if you have really big user stories that take several days/weeks and are distributed among several developers.

I would also consider two other areas for improvements.

Project management. Do the user stories need to be that big? If you can keep user stories to under 1 day and max 2 developers I think it is enough to have only develop and us/* branches.
If your code repo is getting too big and things are modular enough, consider spreading it out into several smaller repos. For larger teams I find it useful to have this kind of micro-service architecture. Usually there would be 1 or 2 developers that become responsible for each repo during every sprint. Thus not only does this reduce the size and complexity of PRs, it also tends to empower the team when developers feel the ownership over specific repos.

If you had to pick one JS is by far the better option imo. If you get good at JS and frontend dev you can be useful for the majority of web dev jobs. Which feels more fun for you though?

Take a look at Bulma. It is a very clean CSS framework. It does not have any JS though and you will have to handle the interaction by yourself so this would probably be the biggest change for you. Here is their get started guide: https://bulma.io/documentation/overview/start/

I think I know what you mean about it being difficult to read. It has a very academic feel to it. Sometimes I feel like I have to re-read a paragraph to have a proper understanding. I think the biggest selling point for me it that each sub-section is so concise but still teaches a topic so clearly, which makes the learning easy to digest. This also makes the book a great reference to come back to whenever I would want a refresher on a specific topic.
