Virtual Hosts on nginx (CSC309)

When hosting our web applications, we often have one public IP address (i.e., an IP address visible to the outside world) using which we want to host multiple web apps. For example, one may wants to host three different web apps respectively for example1.com, example2.com, and example1.com/images on the same machine using a single IP address.

How can we do that? Well, the good news is Internet browsers

Example of using RxJava to listen to connectivity status in Android

You could use the same approach to listen to any status, but this example includes network connectivity specifics too (ConnectionChangeReceiver and AndroidUtils.isConnected).

FWIW: I (@rondy) am not the creator of the content shared here, which is an excerpt from Edmond Lau's book. I simply copied and pasted it from another location and saved it as a personal note, before it gained popularity on news.ycombinator.com. Unfortunately, I cannot recall the exact origin of the original source, nor was I able to find the author's name, so I am can't provide the appropriate credits.

Kotlin Annoyances

These are things that I found annoying writing a complex library in Kotlin. While I am also a Scala developer, these should not necessarily be juxtaposed w/ Scala (even if I reference Scala) as some of my annoyances are with features that Scala doesn't even have. This is also not trying to be opinionated on whether Kotlin is good/bad (for the record, I think it's good). I have numbered them for easy reference. I can give examples for anything I am talking about below upon request. I'm sure there are good reasons for all of them.

1. Arrays in data classes break equals/hashCode and ask you to overload it. If you are going to need to overload it and arrays have no overridability, why not make the least-often use case (the identity-comparison equals) the exception?
