Why I'm Not A JavaScript Developer

Answering the Front-end developer JavaScript interview questions to the best of my ability.

  • Explain event delegation

Sometimes you need to delegate events to things.

  • Explain how this works in JavaScript

This references the object or "thing" defined elsewhere. It's like "hey, thing I defined elsewhere, I'm talkin' to you."

  • Explain how prototypal inheritance works.

React with RxJS, reactive way :)

Observable React elements with RxJS

Note: if you want to skip history behind this, and just looking for final result see: rx-react-container

When I just started using RxJS with React, I was subscribing to observables in componentDidMount and disposing subscriptions at componentWillUnmount.

But, soon I realised that it is not fun to do all that subscriptions(that are just updating property in component state) manually, and written mixin for this...

Later I have rewritten it as "high order component" and added possibility to pass also obsarvers that will receive events from component.

Setting up RetroArch on a Raspberry Pi

Setting up RetroArch on a Raspberry Pi

I just put the finishing touches on my Raspberry Pi 3 emulation machine running RetroArch. I was not a huge fan of RetroPie due to the reliance on Emulation Station - more moving parts meant that there were more things that could potentially break. I just wanted something that would run raw RetroArch, no frills.

This tutorial is mostly recreated from memory and was most recently tested with a Raspberry Pi 3 running Raspbian Stretch and RetroArch 1.7.7. If there is a mistake or a broken link, PLEASE message me and I will fix it.

Step 1: Install Raspbian

I used Raspbian Stretch Lite from this page. Write the image to your SD card using something like Win32 Disk Imager, or if you're using OSX/Linux follow a tutorial on how to write the image using dd.

How to install and use pip without sudo or admin on macOS

Install and use pip on macOS without sudo / admin access

Most recently tested on macOS Sierra (10.12.6)

  1. Download the installation script; curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py -o ~/Downloads/get-pip.py
  2. Run the installation, appending the --user flag; python ~/Downloads/get-pip.py --user. pip will be installed to ~/Library/Python/2.7/bin/pip
  3. Make sure ~/Library/Python/2.7/bin is in your $PATH. For bash users, edit the PATH= line in ~/.bashrc to append the local Python path; ie. PATH=$PATH:~/Library/Python/2.7/bin. Apply the changes, source ~/.bashrc.
  4. Use pip! Remember to append --user when installing modules; ie. pip install <package_name> --user
