风流意气都作罢 提交于 2019-11-30 15:45:10
I'm starting a pro bono project that is the web interface to the world's largest collection of lute music and it's a challenging collection from several points of view. The pieces are largely from 1400 to 1600, but they range from the mid-1200's to present day. Needless to say, there is tremendous variability in how the pieces are categorized and who they are attributed to. It is obvious that any sort of rigid, DB-enforced hierarchy isn't going to work with this collection, so my thoughts turn to tags. But not all tags are the same. I'll have tags that represent a person/role (composer,

What is a Shim?

你说的曾经没有我的故事 提交于 2019-11-29 18:55:48
What's the definition of a Shim? From Wikipedia: In computer programming, a shim is a small library that transparently intercepts an API, changing the parameters passed, handling the operation itself, or redirecting the operation elsewhere. Shims typically come about when the behaviour of an API changes, thereby causing compatibility issues for older applications that still rely on the older functionality. In these cases, the older API can still be supported by a thin compatibility layer on top of the newer code. Shims can also be used to run programs on different software platforms than they

What is the difference between a shim and a polyfill?

一笑奈何 提交于 2019-11-28 14:54:40
Both seem to be used in web development circles, see e.g. HTML5 Cross Browser Polyfills , which says: So here we're collecting all the shims, fallbacks, and polyfills... Or, there's the es5-shim project. In my current project we're using a number of these, and I want to stick them all in the same directory. So, what should I call this directory--- shims , or polyfills ? Arsalan Ahmed A shim is any piece of code that performs interception of an API call and provides a layer of abstraction. It isn't necessarily restricted to a web application or HTML5/CSS3. A polyfill is a type of shim that

What do pty and tty mean?

断了今生、忘了曾经 提交于 2019-11-27 09:57:59
I noticed there are many mentions of pty and tty in some opensource projects, could someone can tell me what do they mean and what is the difference between them? Thanks! Charlie Martin "tty" originally meant "teletype" and "pty" means "pseudo-teletype". In UNIX, /dev/tty* is any device that acts like a "teletype", ie, a terminal. (Called teletype because that's what we had for terminals in those benighted days.) A pty is a pseudotty, a device entry that acts like a terminal to the process reading and writing there, but is managed by something else. They first appeared (as I recall) for X

Markup for postal addresses

送分小仙女□ 提交于 2019-11-27 01:43:08
Which HTML5 markup should we use for postal addresses? And which vocabulary could we use for enabling machine-readability? As an example, the address of W3C’s main office : W3C/MIT 32 Vassar Street Room 32-G515 Cambridge, MA 02139 USA The address element must only be used if this postal address represents the contact information for "its nearest article or body element ancestor", which, of course, is not the case for all addresses. But if address is used or not, it doesn’t affect the following. The whole address should be enclosed in a p element , because "an address is also a paragraph". As
