I've seen this pattern before with other bootcamps. If you want to advertise "99% employment after 3 month", the people who aren't succeeding have to go somewhere. Failing them out of the program is one way, but also hiring the borderline cases you couldn't fail out is another.
2. XSS injection. Any html coming back from a form will be efficiently sanitized just once on arrival. Unsanitized strings will be sanitized before being displayed.
I suspect this is accomplished through safe vs. unsafe types. Imagine the only function from `unsafe___` to `safe___` is the escape function, and all functions giving text back in responses is require to be of type `safe___`.
I've been moving in this direction for a few months as well. In the beginning, yes, it might mean going to bed at 8 or 9. People who snooze like this (I used to) are probably going around with a significant "sleep debt". For example, if I set no alarm a couple of months ago, I would sleep for 12 hours. If I set no alarm again the next night, I would sleep for 12 hours again.
After maybe a couple of weeks of heavy sleeping (see note), your pattern will hopefully return to where you can go to bed at a normal time again without worrying about oversleeping.
NOTE: I don't recommend trying to make up that sleep night after night. Two nights of 12 hours in a row leave me feeling not my best. But consistently getting above-average amounts of sleep for an extended period of time will move you in that direction. (9.5ish has been good for me.)
This is incredible. The linked circles perfectly illustrate how complex functions can be constructed from many superimposed sine waves. I'm very happy with this new knowledge! :)
I think the point was less that people with healthy, varied diets should all switch to Soylent, and more that a potentially healthy meal replacement diet beats a definitely unhealthy fast food diet, hands down.
I think you're right that the "finding a mentor" part could help you out. Everyone who programs hits ceilings at various stages through their careers, and you sound like you're interested enough to want to break through. I find that these breakthroughs usually come to me from either a) getting someone else to show me a way it could be done, or b) learning something from the code of someone a little beyond my skill level. If you've stuck around for that many technologies under your own motivation, perhaps you just need to talk it out with someone just on the other side of your struggles.
You're right; there's no sure solution, but having comrades and leaders in learning usually doesn't hurt. Best of luck!
Since left and right and up and down are both the same, it's essentially as though you're looking through the back of the object. Imagine if you made a sign clear and looked through the back. Even though no reversal has taken place, the text looks backward. This is why things appear reversed.
If you are confused about how left and right are not actually switched, I would say the easiest way is to think in absolute terms, not relative. That is, don't think about left and right, think about east and west. Face north and paint your east (right) hand red. Now when you look at a mirror (you're still facing north), your east hand is red, but the reflection's east hand (think in real world terms here) is also red. That's because the reflection's horizontal aspects have not been reversed.
