Checkout github pull requests locally

Locate the section for your github remote in the .git/config file. It looks like this:

[remote "origin"]
	fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
	url = git@github.com:joyent/node.git

Now add the line fetch = +refs/pull/*/head:refs/remotes/origin/pr/* to this section. Obviously, change the github url to match your project's URL. It ends up looking like this:

Use macOS-style shortcuts in Windows

Use macOS-style shortcuts in Windows / keyboard mappings using a Mac keyboard on Windows

ℹ️ There is a newer alternative project that does similar things and more, check it out at https://github.com/stevenilsen123/mac-keyboard-behavior-in-windows

Make Windows PC's shortcut act like macOS (Mac OS X) (using AutoHotkey (ahk) script)

With this AutoHotKey script, you can use most macOS style shortcuts (eg, cmd+c, cmd+v, ...) on Windows with a standard PC keyboard.

How does it work

Kafka: Notes on Consuming from Multiple Topics

How are partitions assigned in a consumer group?

This is based on the partition assignment strategy configuration, an important note here is that this is a topic-specific configuration. It can only be used to describe the strategy used to assign partitions to a specific consumer group.

The default strategy is called the RangeAssignor strategy. In this strategy, we divide the number of partitions over the number of consumer instances, and assign one by one. If the division does not result in a nice round number, the first few consumer instances are assigned more partitions.

Example

Suppose there are two consumers C0 and C1, two topics t0 and t1, and each topic has 3 partitions, resulting in the following partitions: t0p0, t0p1, t0p2, t1p0, t1p1, and t1p2
