Either a <table> or a grid layout?
Si vous n’avez rien à cacher et que vous ne faites rien de répréhensible, vous devriez chiffrer vos communications.
En ne le faisant pas, vous soutenez la thèse que seuls ceux qui ont qqch à se reprocher utilisent ce genre d’outils. Vous concourrez à la criminalisation de leur utilisation. Vous légitimez le soupçon généralisé sur les utilisateurs.
Utilisateur que vous deviendrez peut-être un jour.
When to use a GUI Toolkit, is it more native than the web? It means some criteria the author defines. Also what level of WCAG conformance can someone hope for?
e-waste is defined as used electronic devices with batteries or plugs that are at the end of their useful life.
The main thing you can do to prevent e-waste is to avoid upgrading unnecessarily and hold onto your devices for as long as possible. If a device is no longer needed, consider selling or donating it, or if it can no longer be used then take it to a recycling facility or return it to the manufacturer.
The internet works because
- there is a stack of protocols built to make things work. Each protocol solves one thing.
- all miraculously work together because these standards are open.
Tim takes the example of the network stack: Ethernet Packet, Internet Packet, TCP Packet, the port, and the email protocols.
Protocols and standards are everywhere. He takes more examples. When you publish a web page for example: it can be both human and machine-readable. It can be accessed through a URI and when someone follows a link to your web page, their browser opens a TCP/IP connection to TCP port 80 on the machine which is registered as serving the (www.whatever.com, etc) in question. All of that is because the URI specification says that what you can tell about a URI depends on the first bit, in this case HTTP. Tim explains in depth why these relationships exist.
An XML document is a less specified version of an HTML document. The namespace declaration gives a URI indicating the namespace used to interpret this XML though. And more...
An RDF document is based on XML and a triple: a value of some property of some object, or some relationship between some object and some other object. How to figure out what a triple means? A URI defines it, and its standard can be read while dereferencing it. The color example is great! So the stack for this document piles up from the Ethernet to the RDF MS 1.0 and RDF MS 1.0 definition of rdf:type.
A pattern is that each technology evolves into three stages: using numbers or strings, then using a URI, and then a dereferenceable URI. As we move on to later protocols, the protocols themselves become more diverse, so URIs were created instead of simple versions with numbers or strings. "The third stage of civilization is the one at which the identifiers can be looked up on the web.".
This stack prevents one from sending a nasty email to someone and then protesting that the message didn't mean anything. So if the stack is so strict, how does one send a nasty email message when one doesn't mean it? Many protocols have ways of breaking the chain, of including information that is not part of the meaning of the message.
For the email: an attachment. "So being able to refer to something without asserting it, whether you call it attachment, packaging, or quoting, is an important feature of a language. The fact that you can do this removes the last excuse for anyone claiming not to have meant whatever they did say in the main message!"
TL;DR they degrade illustrators work.
AI can be used by artists to augment their work and explore an exciting, new, creative frontier. But the vast majority of “AI art” I’ve seen is not that. It’s theft. You don’t have a right to “free” art, in the same way you don’t have a right to have your car fixed for free.
The good old paper and a pen still work well. I am also so messy with my lists that I can write them on any old paper sheet or piece of.
It is valuable to offload what is in your mind, and see the current progress.
The author proposes a serie of question instead of sentences.
Instead, it could be better to use:
- community pattern: everyone else is doing it. Everyone sees it they know exactly how and why it is there.
- readability pattern: created for the sake of making more readable code. The only true goal is writing code that anyone can reason quickly about.
- performance pattern: squeeze the code for maximum performance, and it can degrade readability.
- guardrail pattern: it exists to avoid known foot guns such as magic number
Often people see "best practices" as community, readability, or guardrail patterns. It is also time as professional that we use a richer vocabulary.
This article set the priority on humans, which is also a point of the agile manifesto
Le NoSQL est également plus adaptée pour le développement agile car les données ne sont pas structurées pendant les itérations.
Le SQL a réussi à traverser les âges car: il est simple, il est rapide et il est stable.
Les avantages de SQLite:
- facilité d'administration: tout le contenu peut être visualisé par lecture d'un fichier.
- facilité de déploiement: il est possible de pousser les BDD en production et de les migrer
- simplicité: sqlite est intégré avec tous les langages de programmation
- capacité: une BDD peut contenir plus d'un million de TB
Ses désavantages:
- requêtes concurrentes:
- les types de données limitées: NULL, INTEGER, REA L, TEXT, BLOB. Il n'y a pas de BOOL ni de dates.
- les données sont faiblement validées: "abcd" dans INTEGER o 20 charactères dans VARCHAR(5) passent.
- la sauvegarde des données est à faire soit même
- l'hébergement n'est pas possible avec tous les hébergeurs
As author Sam Harris said, “In a world of true abundance, you shouldn’t have to work to justify your life.”
UBI stands for Universal Basic Income.
Proponents of UBI — and I count myself among them — argue that it offers a safety net that enables individuals to pursue education, start businesses, or engage in creative endeavours without the fear of financial ruin, creating a more innovative, entrepreneurial, and dynamic society.
UBI is grounded in the principle of shared prosperity and the intrinsic value of each individual, irrespective of their economic contribution.
Experiments in Finland and Canada have shown that providing a basic income does not significantly diminish people’s desire to work. Instead, it affords them the flexibility to pursue work that is meaningful and suited to their skills rather than being trapped in the cycle of low-paying or unsatisfying jobs.
With a correct basic income, you can safely strive for the progress of humanity.
Make it visible :) It can be in the UI for human and the <head> for tools
It’s a reminder that reliability, consistency, and user satisfaction can coexist in the realm of software development.
