That's way too complicated for the person just starting out and wanting to add a counter to his small website.
Nobody starting out with programming today will start with Rails. They might start with Javascript, but more than likely they'll start with PHP. It's accessible and SIMPLE.
I believe that's actually a standard presentation, I've seen it in several weather graphs.
It's basically a rounding yeah, signifying it's just slightly below zero, but not enough to round to -1°.
You're incorrect there. It depends on what context. M as in thousand are roman numerals, whereas M in greek would be million.
It's not counterintuitive at all, obviously the context here means that it's million, as you wouldn't note thousands as 2,450M in any way, it'd just be 2450. So the only remaining option is that it means million.
Right after I posted my comment I thought, someone is going to explain to me why it’s not confusing that “M” means “thousand” in some contexts but not others. Thank you!
I'd say probably Turbolinks is your best bet there. You basically drop it in, and then it prefetches all the links on your page, and when you click them, it replaces the DOM. It works quite well actually, Rails has been using it out of the box for years and years.
Technically, it only affects operations in the US, but I highly doubt they'd pretend to serve US privacy concerns more than Europe or other jurisdictions, given how much the EU is looking at that same entity.
I mean you get best practices for the small part React is focused on. Angular is a full type of ecosystem, like your Ruby on Railses, Djangoes etc. in which you can install it and then create a full website directly without any dependencies other than what you get.
I guess mobile PowerPacks with solar panels? Just deploy a few thousand outside the tunneling area and then automate the battery switching. Could run it 24/7 without anyone ever going to Mars even.
Or you work at a company with no significant secrets that could potentially be shared through chatting. Priorities; why spend time and effort on some on-site solution when there's really nothing to gain security wise unless you have secrets? You won't be sharing passwords through Slack or Discord in any case, that's for a password manager, so you're really left with trade secrets, and why would there be trade secrets in a Slack channel for a web development company?
