Using rem units in CSS

One pattern I've noticed lately is using rem as a unit of distance in CSS. This seems like a pretty good idea.

.box {
  height: 1.5rem;
  padding: 1rem;
}

Edit (September 2020):

• Docker for Desktop can run on WSL 2 without any Virtual machine!
• WSL 2 is now available for stable Windows 10 (not just Insiders) via the (stable) Windows 10 May 2020 Update.
• WSL 2 is available for Windows Home editions, too, you don't need a Pro license!
• Docker for Desktop with WSL 2 eliminates many issues inherent to running a Linux VM and using shares into that VM.
• WSL 2 supports *nix permissions on Windows file systems mounted into WSL 2 (Postgres container mounts come into mind).
• WSL 2 also supports full GPU access – CUDA and such, too, since the 2021H2 November update even in non-insiders, stable!!
• VirtualBox (in recent version) [can now coexist with Hyper-V](https://us.informatiweb.net/tutorials/it/virtual

System Design Cheatsheet

Picking the right architecture = Picking the right battles + Managing trade-offs

Basic Steps

1. Clarify and agree on the scope of the system

• User cases (description of sequences of events that, taken together, lead to a system doing something useful)
  • Who is going to use it?
  • How are they going to use it?

To remove a submodule you need to:

• Delete the relevant section from the .gitmodules file.
• Stage the .gitmodules changes git add .gitmodules
• Delete the relevant section from .git/config.
• Run git rm --cached path_to_submodule (no trailing slash).
• Run rm -rf .git/modules/path_to_submodule (no trailing slash).
