Installing Debian 8.5 "jessie" on a Lenovo X1 Carbon 4th generation

Installing Debian 8.5 "jessie" on a Lenovo X1 Carbon 4th generation (20FB) - 2016

UPDATE 2018-02-24: I got a new Lenovo X1 Carbon 5th gen and tried to do the same setup with Debian 9.3.0. It was an utter failure because of some boot issues. I went with Xubuntu instead and everything works FLAWLESSLY. Xubuntu is beautiful.

I've had my mind on switching my development machine from a 13" MacBook Pro Retina to a Lenovo X1 Carbon running Linux for a while. The main reason is getting more familiar with Linux itself and also to have a more stable and minimal dev environment. So I finally got the machine and decided to install Debian 8.5 "jessie". Why Debian? Well, I tried installing Arch Linux once and couldn't get past getting wifi to work, and Ubuntu seemed like it added too much stuff. The choice was either Debian or Linux Mint. I went with Debian because it seems like it's the most stable.

Create a bootable USB stick

I followed the instructions at https://www.debian.org/releases/jessie/amd64/ch04s

Learn JavaScript concepts with recent DevTools features

Learn JavaScript concepts with the Chrome DevTools

Authored by Peter Rybin , Chrome DevTools team

In this short guide we'll review some new Chrome DevTools features for "function scope" and "internal properties" by exploring some base JavaScript language concepts.

Closures

Let's start with closures – one of the most famous things in JS. A closure is a function, that uses variables from outside. See an example:
