At the end of 2016, the [CALC][] team experimented with converting the single-page app on its front page, referred to as the [Data Explorer][], from JQuery to React + Redux.
We inherited the [1350-line explorer.js][explorer-1] from a previous
team. This code was written under different project and time constraints,
This document just conventionalizes some practices laid out in
18F/calc#1406, making it a bit easier to run
commands in docker containers without having to constantly prefix
them with e.g. docker-compose run app.
Using this convention requires first modifying one's .bashrc:
Note that these reflections are specifically tailored to a conversation about Docker we're having at 18F, and as such they have a few assumptions:
The following are notes about haskellbook.
Because the sample content begins with installing Haskell and a "Hello, World" program, I had assumed that the first chapter (which is not in the sample content) is simply some kind of introduction. However, once the sample content starts mentioning the Lambda Calculus, I got confused, thinking that perhaps the book was assuming prior knowledge about it.
It was only later that I realized that the first chapter is actually about the Lambda Calculus. It'd be

To be clear, Summerhill is a book by A.S. Neill that I've never read, and it's apparently named after an English boarding school. According to Wikipedia:
Summerhill, founded in the 1920s, is run as a children's democracy under Neill's educational philosophy of self-regulation, where kids choose whether to go to lessons and how they want to live freely without imposing on others. The school makes its rules at a weekly schoolwide meeting where students and teachers each have one vote alike.
The book was apparently well-received at the time of its release in 1960; it sold two million copies over the next decade, was included in over 600
Here are some mini exercises to challenge your jQuery skills a bit.
Create a new page on jsbin.com and add the following script tag to it:
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-2.1.4.js"></script>

| RUN set -ex \ | |

After watching Bryan Cantrill's presentation on [Running Aground: Debugging Docker in Production][aground] I got all excited (and strangely nostalgic) about the possibility of core-dumping server-side Python apps whenever they go awry. This would theoretically allow me to fully inspect the state of the program at the point it exploded, rather than relying solely on the information of a stack trace.
