Happy to answer any questions. The idea originated from a client project where we replaced a legacy rails app with a 20mbyte Excel report that was updated with a script every x hours. Since then I can't get enough of Excel.
Are thieves an issue here? The parts might valuable in these low-income countries. When drones land to drop down goods, they are quite "vulnerable" for a thieve to catch them. Getting them from the air shouldn't be a problem too. There's even a sport for that too (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GdIHOV6VGNU#t=196).
2'500 CHF is about the budget for a student life-style in Zurich. I expect a lot of young Swiss going on long holidays to cheaper places like south-east asia or eastern europe.
It's super popular all over south-east asia. One of the reasons are the cute and fun "stickers" that can convey 80% of your daily emotions and situations. Stuck in overcrowded subway? there's a sticker for that.
I created RubyJS, a port of all Ruby methods to JavaScript, that gave me a fairly well understanding of both languages. Speaker at various Ruby/JS conferences around the world. 6 years Ruby, Ruby on Rails (before Java, PHP). Fluent in the whole stack.
'while' is actually faster than 'for'. But in this example the while loop does extra work (mutating the array). while loops are always faster than forEach, as they simply do less work.
The for loop uses array access "items[j]", and the while loop uses "items.shift". At the end of the for loop 'items' is still the same, at the end of the while loop 'items' is empty.
He probably just wanted to test the difference between 'while ' and 'do while' and takes the fastest possible solution (for) as a reference. It's however good to know that 'do while' is that much slower compared to while.
RubyJS has currently some beginner to advanced level things to get done. If you're interested in Ruby, JS this project gives you an excellent understanding of both.
maybe work at hubba co-working space, couple of coders there. can contact me if you want, contact info: hasclass.com also have sign up at hackerhut.org
i have learned the thai alphabet and that "mega-combo character" comment just made my day. Reading thai pretty much feels like reading regexps. Anditdoesntmakeitanyeasierthattheydontusespaces
