Once in a while, you may need to cleanup resources (containers, volumes, images, networks) ...

delete volumes

// see: https://github.com/chadoe/docker-cleanup-volumes

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?

У CSS есть несколько базовых проблем, которые позволяют очень быстро отстрелить себе ногу при неправильном использовании:

1. Глобальный неймспейс – в серверном программировании все что написано в файле, в файле и остается. Все же что написано в css и js засирает глобальное пространство имен со всеми вытекающими. В JS эту проблему сейчас побороли всякими модульными системами, а вот с css сложнее. В идеальном мире это должен починить Shadow DOM и настоящие Web Components, но пока их нет единственный способ с этим бороться – следовать какой-то системе именований селекторов, которая по возможности уменьшает и исключает возможные конфликты.

2. Каскадность – если на один элемент может сработать несколько правил, то они все и сработают последовательно. Если есть элемент h1.title, на него сработают все правила для тегов h1 и все правила для класса .title. Так как весь html состоит из тегов, то правил которые п

O-I

One of the many reasons I love working with Ruby is it has a rich vocabulary that allows you to accomplish your goals with a minimal amount of code. If there isn't a method that does exactly what you want, it's usually possible to build an elegant solution yourself.

Let's take the example of simulating the rolling of a die.

We can represent a die as an array of its faces.

die = [*?⚀..?⚅]
# => ["⚀", "⚁", "⚂", "⚃", "⚄", "⚅"]

Taking your nodebot wifi

Controlling your nodebot using a USB cable is great and all, and obviously you could shell out and grab a sparkcore or some other dedicated controller but what if you've got a standard arduino and you want to take an existing nodebot wireless?

Bluetooth is an option and there's this excellent JohnnyFive wiki entry that will help you there. Bluetooth can be a bit flaky though and it's range is pretty lousy. You can also look at things like XBees and what not using point to point serial, but these are expensive and very fiddly to get working.

Really, what we want is a method of transferring data over a nice, simple, standard method, requiring little configuration, low cost and we can utilise a whole stack of the code we've already produced.

Enter the WiFi232 module. These little beauties are [available from AliExpress for $12 each](http://www.aliexpress.com/item/USR-WIFI232-T-wifi-to-uart-tt
