Scalable HTTP sockets for the cloud, Part 2 – grijjy blog
Posted by jpluimers on 2018/09/26
Interesting stuff:
In this article we will expand on our TgoHttpClient class by adding some core new features including non-blocking http responses, unifying HTTP 1.1, HTTP/S and HTTP/2 support into a common class…

I’d also be interested in the server part of this, but it seems not there yet.

How not to structure your database-backed web applications: a study of performance bugs in the wild | the morning paper
Posted by jpluimers on 2018/09/25
This is about Ruby anti-patterns, which is a good step to start investigating the own anti-patterns you use in your own development environment:

Unicode spaces
Posted by jpluimers on 2018/09/25
For my link archive:
- [WayBack] Unicode spaces
- [WayBack] Whitespace character – Wikipedia
- [WayBack] Punctuation Space U+2008 — TypeDrawers
Via: [WyBack] Are there blank characters in unicode that have the same widths as period, comma and digits? – Lars Fosdal – Google+
Answer: no, though better fonts have period, comma, colon, semicolon and other punctuations the same width as the punctuation space.
The use-case:
I wanted right justified text without having to do custom positioning/drawing – where the decimal zero is white space.F.x. here 12 instead of 12.0
9.5
11.6
12 <– #$2008 and #$2007
13.4I.e. PunctuationSpace and FigureSpace
I don’t want to deal with positioning/rendering since it happens inside a third party component.

pure-bash-bible/README.md – book for doing things in bash without external tools
Posted by jpluimers on 2018/09/21
[WayBack] pure-bash-bible/README.md at master · dylanaraps/pure-bash-bible · GitHub:
The goal of this book is to document known and unknown methods of doing various tasks using only built-in
bashfeatures. Using the snippets from this bible can help remove unneeded dependencies from scripts and in most cases make them faster. I came across these tips and discovered a few while developing neofetch, pxltrm and other smaller projects.The snippets below are linted using
shellcheckand tests have been written where applicable. Want to contribute? Read the CONTRIBUTING.md. It outlines how the unit tests work and what is required when adding snippets to the bible.See something incorrectly described, buggy or outright wrong? Open an issue or send a pull request. If the bible is missing something, open an issue and a solution will be found.
Via:
- [WayBack] A collection of pure bash alternatives to external processes. – John Hardy – Google+
- [WayBack] Interesting book/notes. I’m tempted to work through it and document how it’s done in zsh instead. Maybe a winter’s task … now is lavender time. Z-Shell has, for example, a more consistent notion of arrays. And better file matching patterns, e.g. *(.) to match only files, or *(/) to match directories only.
