Using TFS and GIT together

What if your team uses TFS, but you want offline support? You can have a Git repo as well, but then getting your changes to TFS is burdensome. Here’s where a GIT to TFS bridge would be handy.

Setting up your repo

Here’s how to keep a TFS repository foo, and a GIT repository bar, in sync. First step is you need to create a new TFS workspace:

cd \

tf workspace /new /noprompt Foo

	{
		result = true;
	}

	return result;

Data visualization in one of three most important steps in data mining (https://github.com/entaroadun/hnpickup). Often times, it's impossible to understand data without proper visualization. I went looking for great tools to do that.
