Hidden dependencies in CSS

Hidden dependencies

Sarah Lim, Northwestern University

Update, September 2019: This Gist detailed an early idea which formed the basis for a major research project. For more information, you can read the resulting full paper, which received Best Paper Honorable Mention at UIST 2018. A tool based on this research is now available on Firefox Nightly.

What are hidden dependencies?

messy notes from learning git

Remotes

Upstream vs downstream?

  • upstream is where you cloned from (origin)
  • downstream is any project that integrates your work

Origin

These things are equivalent and refer to the branch named master on the remote named origin:

  • remotes/origin/master
  • origin/master

The Missing README provides installation instructions for true JavaScript development beginners

The Missing README for JavaScript Projects

This README provides general instructions for installing Node.js and npm ecosystem projects from GitHub.

Many project READMEs assume a baseline level of user knowledge, but the following "Getting Started" section isn't very helpful to an absolute beginner:

Getting Started

Final exam review problems for EECS 111, Winter 2017

EECS 111 Winter 2017 Tutorial 9 (Exam Practice)

Sarah Lim (http://sarahlim.com/eecs-111)

Q1. Scope and Mutation

In most countries, the age of majority is 18. Some countries have different laws. In Scotland, for instance, the age of majority is 16.

Suppose we want to write a program to determine whether someone is a legal adult. We'll write a global version that works for most countries, and a Scotland-specific version.
