FWIW: I (@rondy) am not the creator of the content shared here, which is an excerpt from Edmond Lau's book. I simply copied and pasted it from another location and saved it as a personal note, before it gained popularity on news.ycombinator.com. Unfortunately, I cannot recall the exact origin of the original source, nor was I able to find the author's name, so I am can't provide the appropriate credits.

What's an Effective Engineer?

wojteklu

Code is clean if it can be understood easily – by everyone on the team. Clean code can be read and enhanced by a developer other than its original author. With understandability comes readability, changeability, extensibility and maintainability.

General rules

1. Follow standard conventions.
2. Keep it simple stupid. Simpler is always better. Reduce complexity as much as possible.
3. Boy scout rule. Leave the campground cleaner than you found it.
4. Always find root cause. Always look for the root cause of a problem.

Design rules

Simple automated GIT Deployment using GIT Hooks

Here are the simple steps needed to create a deployment from your local GIT repository to a server based on this in-depth tutorial.

How it works

You are developing in a working-copy on your local machine, lets say on the master branch. Most of the time, people would push code to a remote server like github.com or gitlab.com and pull or export it to a production server. Or you use a service like deepl.io to act upon a Web-Hook that's triggered that service.

Remove MySQL completely

1. Open the Terminal

2. Use mysqldump to backup your databases

3. Check for MySQL processes with: ps -ax | grep mysql

4. Stop and kill any MySQL processes

5. Analyze MySQL on HomeBrew:

   brew remove mysql

#!/bin/sh

# Converts a mysqldump file into a Sqlite 3 compatible file. It also extracts the MySQL `KEY xxxxx` from the
# CREATE block and create them in separate commands _after_ all the INSERTs.

# Awk is choosen because it's fast and portable. You can use gawk, original awk or even the lightning fast mawk.
# The mysqldump file is traversed only once.

# Usage: $ ./mysql2sqlite mysqldump-opts db-name | sqlite3 database.sqlite
# Example: $ ./mysql2sqlite --no-data -u root -pMySecretPassWord myDbase | sqlite3 database.sqlite

var groupBy = function(data, key) { // `data` is an array of objects, `key` is the key (or property accessor) to group by
  // reduce runs this anonymous function on each element of `data` (the `item` parameter,
  // returning the `storage` parameter at the end
  return data.reduce(function(storage, item) {
    // get the first instance of the key by which we're grouping
    var group = item[key];
    
    // set `storage` for this instance of group to the outer scope (if not empty) or initialize it
    storage[group] = storage[group] || [];
