Difference between \n and \r 👀 In Unix and all Unix-like systems, \n is the code for end-of-line, \r means nothing special. 🤷🏻‍♂️ As a consequence, in C and most languages that somehow copy it (even remotely), \n is the standard escape sequence for end of line (translated to/from OS-specific sequences as needed) in old Mac systems (pre-OS X), \r was the code for end-of-line instead. 🖥 As a (surprising) consequence (harking back to OSs much older than Windows), \r\n is the standard line-termination for text formats on the Internet. 🌏 For electromechanical teletype-like "terminals", \r commands the carriage to go back leftwards until it hits the leftmost stop (a slow operation), \n commands the roller to roll up one line (a much faster operation) — that's the reason you always have \r before \n, so that the roller can move while the carriage is still going leftwards!. For character-mode terminals (typically emulating even-older printing ones as above), in raw mode, \r and \n act similarly (except both in terms of the cursor, as there is no carriage or roller) 😉 〰〰〰〰〰〰 #scape_secuence @ProgrammingTip

Yagni : You Arent Gonna Need It 👾 Never Add Functionality Early 💡

"Always implement things when you actually need them, never when you just foresee that you need them."

Even if you're totally, totally, totally sure that you'll need a feature later on, don't implement it now. ⏳ Usually, what you actually need is quite different from what you foresaw needing earlier. 🙅🏻‍♂️ This doesn't mean you should avoid building flexibility into your code. ✅ It means you shouldn't overengineer something based on what you think you might need later on. ❌ 🔹🔸🔹🔸🔹🔸 There are two main reasons to practise YagNi : 1️⃣ You save time, because you avoid writing code that you turn out not to need. 2️⃣ Your code is better, because you avoid polluting it with 'guesses' that turn out to be more or less wrong but stick around anyway. This also follows the KISS theorem:

Keep it simple, stupid!

Authentication in ASP.​NET Core for your Web API and Angular2+ using JWT 🔑 Authentication in a single page application is a bit more special, if you just know the traditional ASP.NET way. To imagine that the app is a completely independent app like a mobile app helps. Token based authentication is the best solution for this kind of apps. https://t.me/pgimg/11 [ Website ] : http://bit.do/jwtasp 〰〰〰〰〰〰 #AspMvc #WebApi #Authentication #JWT @ProgrammingTip

What is PushJs ? ❓ Push is the fastest way to get up and running with Javascript desktop notifications. 🔥 A fairly new addition to the official specification, the Notification API allows modern browsers such as Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and IE 9+ to push notifications to a user’s desktop. 👌🏻 Push acts as a cross-browser solution to this API, falling back to use older implementations if the user’s browser does not support the new API. 🌀 Installing You can quickly install Push via npm:

$ npm install push.js --save

Or, if you want something a little more lightweight, you can give Bower a try:

$ bower install push.js --save

The art of asking "coding" questions 🎨 … is not working❗️🤦🏻‍♂️ Examples :

“npm install is not working”
“interpolation is not working”

“It’s not working” is not helpful ❗️ It doesn’t tell others about the problem you’re facing. [ Website ] : http://bit.do/quea 〰〰〰〰〰〰 #Tips #QA @ProgrammingTip

Rubber Duck Debugging 🐤 In software engineering, rubber duck debugging or rubber ducking is a method of debugging code. 🐞 The name is a reference to a story in the book The Pragmatic Programmer in which a programmer would carry around a rubber duck and debug their code by forcing themselves to explain it, line-by-line, to the duck. 🗣 Many other terms exist for this technique, often involving different inanimate objects. Many programmers have had the experience of explaining a programming problem to someone else, possibly even to someone who knows nothing about programming, and then hitting upon the solution in the process of explaining the problem. 👥 In describing what the code is supposed to do and observing what it actually does, any incongruity between these two becomes apparent. ↔️ More generally, teaching a subject forces its evaluation from different perspectives and can provide a deeper understanding. 👨🏻‍🏫 By using an inanimate object, the programmer can try to accomplish this without having to interrupt anyone else. 🙅🏻‍♂️ 〰〰〰〰〰〰 #Debugging #Tips @ProgrammingTip
