## Introduction `git stash` to temporarily save changes you are working on. ## How to use it ### Save changes temporarily ```cmd git stash ``` This saves the changes in your current working directory to a stash, leaving your working directory clean. ### Apply the stash ```cmd git stash apply ``` This applies the latest stash to the current working directory. The stash remains in place and can be reapplied. ### Apply and remove the stash ```cmd git stash pop ``` This will apply the latest stash and remove it from the stash at the same time. ### Display a list of stashes ```cmd git stash list ``` This will display a list of saved stashes. ### Apply a specific stash ```cmd git stash apply stash@{1} ``` If multiple stashes exist, you can apply a specific stash by using the format stash@{n}. ### Drop a specific stash ```cmd git stash drop stash@{1} ``` To drop a specific stash, use the following command. This will remove the stash at stash@{1}. ## Conclusion A git stash is useful for temporarily storing changes you are working on so you can do other work or switch branches.

In today's fast-paced digital landscape, businesses are increasingly turning to DevOps practices to streamline their development processes and accelerate time-to-market. At the heart of DevOps lies the philosophy of merging development (Dev) and operations (Ops) to foster collaboration and efficiency throughout the software development lifecycle. However, the true power of DevOps extends far beyond just collaboration—it lies in its ability to automate and scale operations with cutting-edge solutions. ## The Power of Automation in DevOps Automation forms the backbone of DevOps practices, enabling teams to automate repetitive tasks, reduce human error, and speed up deployment cycles. By leveraging automation tools for configuration management, continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD), and infrastructure as code (IaC), organizations can achieve consistency, reliability, and scalability across their development and operations environments. ## Key Benefits of Automation: **Enhanced Efficiency:** Automating manual processes frees up valuable time and resources, allowing teams to focus on innovation rather than routine tasks. **Improved Quality:** Automated testing and deployment pipelines ensure that software updates are thoroughly tested and deployed consistently, minimizing the risk of bugs and failures. **Faster Time-to-Market:** Rapid, automated deployments enable organizations to release new features and updates to customers more frequently, gaining a competitive edge in the market. ## Scaling Operations with DevOps As businesses grow, so do the demands on their IT infrastructure and development teams. DevOps provides the framework and tools necessary to scale operations efficiently, ensuring that systems can handle increased workload and complexity without sacrificing performance or reliability. ## Strategies for Scaling with DevOps: **Elastic Infrastructure:** Utilizing cloud computing and containerization technologies (such as Docker and Kubernetes) allows organizations to dynamically scale their infrastructure based on demand, ensuring optimal performance and cost-efficiency. **Horizontal and Vertical Scaling:** DevOps practices enable both horizontal scaling (adding more instances of servers or containers) and vertical scaling (increasing the resources of existing servers or containers), providing flexibility to meet changing business needs. **Monitoring and Optimization:** Continuous monitoring and performance optimization are integral to scaling operations effectively. DevOps teams leverage monitoring tools to identify bottlenecks, optimize resource allocation, and proactively address potential issues before they impact end-users. ## Embracing Cutting-Edge DevOps Solutions To stay competitive in today's digital economy, organizations must continuously evolve their DevOps practices and adopt cutting-edge solutions that drive innovation and efficiency. Emerging technologies such as serverless computing, microservices architecture, and AI-driven analytics are transforming how [DevOps teams](https://parangat.com/blog/devops-consulting-services/) design, deploy and manage software applications. ## Implementing Advanced DevOps Solutions: **Serverless Computing:** Eliminates the need for managing infrastructure, allowing developers to focus solely on writing code and deploying functions, thereby reducing operational overhead and improving scalability. **Microservices Architecture:** This breaks down monolithic applications into smaller, independent services that can be developed, deployed, and scaled independently, promoting agility and resilience. **AI and Machine Learning:** Integrating AI-driven analytics and automation into DevOps processes enables predictive analytics, anomaly detection, and intelligent decision-making, enhancing operational efficiency and reliability. ## Conclusion In conclusion, DevOps is not just a methodology—it's a transformative approach to software development and operations that empowers organizations to automate, scale, and innovate with unparalleled efficiency. By embracing cutting-edge DevOps solutions and practices, businesses can achieve faster time-to-market, improved scalability, and sustained competitive advantage in an increasingly digital world.

I started learning Django framework some months ago, as a developer I believe that the main purpose of learning is to use it to solve a problem and to be able to solve a big problem you must start from solving small small problems, by pushing and critical thinking I know I will be able to solve a problem where world 🌎 will be beneficiary. Before I started my journey as a backend developer, whenever I signed up on a any website with a particular information, whenever I want to sign in, if I didn't provide the information that I provided when I was signing up, I won't be able to login, I was wondering how this works, how computer understand that the information I wanted to use to log in is not as the same with the one I used during sign up, and some other things I used to think about on how it works. So after I completed my course as a backend developer, I also tried to create an API using Django where a user will provide their email and password to sign up and their information will store in database (MySQL) and if user can't provide the same it won't be able to login, after I was done with it, I tested it using Postman during the development stage, after that I connected it with fronted project (bootstrap) for client side. And everything works perfectly. But during the development stage I encounter some issues but I always run to Google to look for the solution and most of the solution I got it from stack overflow and some time I read Django documentation too. Conclusion Whatever you can dream in this life you can achieve it, where you started doesn't matter but have a clear goal and as a developer you must have it in your mind that you are a problem solver and the people that will solve problems must be someone who can think and reason, I also learned from this small project importance of connection and being with people that can help. That what makes me look forward to connect to great people in tech industry and I found HNG internship my first day in workspace made me connect to professional in tech industry, who can solve big problems and tackle them with critical thinking and they are also always available to help when you are stuck. What are you looking for join today [(https://hng.tech/internship] and your dream will be achieved because it's full with experienced people, networking opportunities and it changes career. I'm happy to be part of this great community, look forward to see you. Join now and thank me later [https://hng.tech/hire]

Комплект для разработки программного обеспечения ( SDK ) — это набор инструментов для разработки программного обеспечения в одном устанавливаемом пакете. Они облегчают создание приложений, имея компилятор, отладчик и иногда программную структуру . Они обычно специфичны для комбинации аппаратной платформы и операционной системы. Для создания приложений с расширенными функциями, такими как реклама, push-уведомления и т. д., большинство разработчиков прикладного программного обеспечения используют специальные комплекты для разработки программного обеспечения. Некоторые SDK требуются для разработки платформенно-зависимых приложений. Например, для разработки приложения Android на платформе Java требуется Java Development Kit . Для приложений iOS (apps) требуется iOS SDK . Для универсальной платформы Windows может использоваться .NET Framework SDK . Существуют также SDK, которые добавляют дополнительные функции и могут быть установлены в приложениях для предоставления аналитики, данных об активности приложения и вариантов монетизации. Некоторые известные создатели этих типов SDK включают Google, Smaato, InMobi и Facebook. SDK может принимать форму интерфейсов прикладного программирования [1] в виде библиотек многократно используемых функций на устройстве, используемых для взаимодействия с определенным языком программирования , или может быть таким же сложным, как аппаратно-зависимые инструменты, которые могут взаимодействовать с определенной встроенной системой . [2] Общие инструменты включают средства отладки и другие утилиты , часто представленные в интегрированной среде разработки . [3] SDK могут включать образцы программного обеспечения и/или технические заметки вместе с документацией и учебными пособиями, помогающими прояснить моменты, изложенные в первичном справочном материале. [4] [5] SDK часто включают лицензии , которые делают их непригодными для создания программного обеспечения, предназначенного для разработки по несовместимой лицензии. Например, проприетарный SDK, как правило, несовместим с разработкой свободного программного обеспечения , в то время как GNU General Public License 'd SDK может быть несовместим с разработкой проприетарного программного обеспечения по юридическим причинам. [6] [7] Однако SDK, созданные по GNU Lesser General Public License, обычно можно использовать для проприетарной разработки. [8] В случаях, когда базовая технология является новой, SDK могут включать аппаратное обеспечение. Например, AirTag 's 2021 Near-field communication SDK включал как платную, так и считывающую половины необходимого аппаратного стека. [9] Среднестатистическое мобильное приложение Android реализует 15,6 отдельных SDK, а игровые приложения реализуют в среднем 17,5 различных SDK. [10] Наиболее популярными категориями SDK для мобильных приложений Android являются аналитика и реклама. [10] SDK могут быть небезопасными (потому что они реализованы в приложениях, но запускают отдельный код). Вредоносные SDK (с честными намерениями или нет) могут нарушать конфиденциальность данных пользователей , ухудшать производительность приложений или даже приводить к запрету приложений в Google Play или App Store . [11] Новые технологии позволяют разработчикам приложений контролировать и отслеживать клиентские SDK в режиме реального времени. Поставщики SDK для конкретных систем или подсистем иногда заменяют термин software более конкретным термином . Например, и Microsoft [12] , и Citrix [13] предоставляют комплект для разработки драйверов для разработки драйверов устройств .

Common Language Runtime (англ. CLR — общеязыковая исполняющая среда) — исполняющая среда для байт-кода CIL (MSIL), в который компилируются программы, написанные на .NET-совместимых языках программирования (C#, Managed C++, Visual Basic .NET, F# и прочие). CLR является одним из основных компонентов пакета Microsoft .NET Framework. Среда CLR является реализацией спецификации CLI (англ. Common Language Infrastructure), спецификации общеязыковой инфраструктуры компании Microsoft. CLR реализует виртуальную систему выполнения (VES), как определено в стандарте Common Language Infrastructure (CLI), изначально разработанном самой Microsoft. Общедоступный стандарт определяет спецификацию общеязыковой инфраструктуры. CLR компилирует код приложения на языке CIL (реализация компиляции которого компанией Microsoft называется MSIL) во время его исполнения, а также предоставляет MSIL-программам (а следовательно, и программам, написанным на языках высокого уровня, поддерживающих .NET Framework) доступ к библиотеке классов .NET Framework, или так называемой .NET FCL (англ. Framework Class Library).

lowcode, security
Look carefully at the image for this article. Did you see anything _"funny"_ about it? Let me enlighten you. What you're looking at is an Open Source project. They're worth 1.2 billion US dollars according to their latest VC evaluation. Specifically you're looking at the history of their _"Star gazers"_ according to GitHub. They were able to get a couple of hundreds of millions in VC funding from tier one VC funds in Silicon Valley some few years back ago. Initially you can see organic growth. Then somewhere in early 2021 they got some traction, probably because of attention related to their VC funding, alternatively because of a major release going a little bit viral somewhere. Afterwards you see it flattening out more, but still having some _"hickups"_ here and there over the next 2 years, until December of 2022, at which point the curve goes completely _"flat"_. Flat here implies it goes into a 100% perfectly straight line. What you're looking at is what scientists will refer to as _"a statistical anomaly impossible to explain using natural phenomenas"_. Such anomalies was the reason why Bernie Madoff was suspected of running a Ponzi scheme. His numbers were simply too good to believe. Anomalies such as these simply don't occur in _"natural systems"_ because of the laws of entropy prohibiting nature from creating such straight lines. Don't believe me, go find something resembling that line in nature. Their line _should_ be moving more like a _"rugged line"_ with ups and down over time. Below I have emphasised the largest anomaly in the graph ... ![The anomaly](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/oruydew47aeg907hwhwz.png) Basically, since the end of 2022 _they probably didn't get more than 1% organic likes on their GitHub project_! ## They bought GitHub Accounts I tried to write about this a couple of years ago, the exact same company, but I didn't understand why so many of their _"Star gazers"_ were mature GitHub accounts back then - So I started questioning myself, not 100% sure if I was right. Yesterday I understood how they do it. To understand how they did it look carefully at the following screenshot from an E-Commerce website ... ![Buy GitHub usernames](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/pplsryuvv29ae9vk7kx0.png) Notice how they're even selling _"mature GitHub accounts"_? Implying accounts older than one year, with actual content and activity? Interestingly, their AI chatbot is a Shopify chatbot, so they're probably running their little scam as a Shopify website ... 🤪 > Got scam ideas? No problem bro, we at Shopify will help you sell it 😂 ## The Open Source VC Hoax I don't know where the above merchant is getting these GitHub usernames. If I should guess, it's probably a combination of purchasing GitHub accounts from students, combined with having their click farm employees registering new accounts, for then to store these in _"their aging vault"_ for some months before they're putting these out for sale. They're also selling Gmail accounts, even aged Gmail accounts, so they've obviously got no shortage of handles you can buy to artificially inflate your open source project with fake likes. The reason anyone would do this is two folded. 1. It gives justification for their evaluation, since VC firms and others will count star gazers, before evaluating the company 2. It creates social proof, making others believing in that the platform must be valuable and good, since so many users have been liking it > Basically, it's a hoax! A good old fashion scam The name of the company is [Supabase](https://supabase.com), but they're not the only company doing this. If I'd guess I say probably 80 to 98 percent of every single VC funded company out there are using similar tactics to artificially inflate their evaluation. There are even entire libraries written about such mechanisms, most of these are using words such as Pyramid scheme or Ponzi scheme to explain what's going on. You will find the same mechanisms at _every single social game_ in existence out there. Luckily for those applying such tactics, few are smart enough to smell them out, and even fewer are willing to publicly write about them - Such as me. To understand the price we collectively pay for such scams, I want you to carefully read the entire article below. * [How I got 50 Followers on ProductHunt in 5 Minutes using AI](https://ainiro.io/blog/how-i-got-50-followers-on-producthunt-in-5-minutes-using-ai) ... then come tell me how this is just some _"innocent gaming hustling some few bucks out of rich investors"_ ... ## The price for your Soul I did some math on the above merchant's offers, and to purchase 68,000 accounts such as Supabase probably did, would cost you somewhere between $70,000 and $1.2 million, depending upon how many mature accounts you'd want. Supabase got some 100 million in VC funding in total, implying they spent less than 0.5% of their liquidity on purchasing their likes. For a CFO and a CMO strategising to figure out how to grow their company, this is practically _"free marketing"_, sustaining the illusion of a popular project worth billions of dollars, allowing them to milk their investors for even more money, to buy whatever it is they want to buy for other peoples' money ... However, once money is involved, it's still security fraud - Especially once institutionalised investors are involved. The brilliance of the scam is that the VC firm will never publicly admit they were taken for a ride, it's simply too embarrassing for them, so Supabase probably got away 100% clean ... > The irony ... 😕 Supabase's CEO once patronised me by saying; _"Your system is really good at sending emails"_ - Well, I wouldn't expect anything more from somebody who can only deliver fake value based upon Ponzi schemes, created to dupe money from investors, by gaming the world ... ... maybe I should send his investors some emails ...? 😉 ## Conclusion Since late 2022, less than 1% of Supabase's GitHub star gazers are actually real living human being, the rest are likes they've purchased. In the period before that, starting from 2021, probably 95% or more of their likes are fake. Any mathematician can verify that what I tell you is the truth. It is simply statistically impossible for nature to create such a smooth line in a natural system ... This implies that when Supabase is telling you _"We've installed 1 million databases"_, you would be wise removing at least 2 zeros from their numbers, implying they've probably not got more than some 3,000 to 4,000 actual likes, and probably somewhere around 10,000 to 100,000 real legitimate users. The above should put their evaluation down by at least 1 to 3 zeros, implying instead of being worth 1 billion US dollars, their real evaluation is rather somewhere between 10 million dollars to 100 million dollars somewhere ... ## A Healthy GitHub Project **Edit** - Below is how a healthy GitHub project should look like. This project obviously has exclusively organic Stargazers. ![Healthy GitHub project](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/w4r29kotbc5xktzn0u6g.png) The straight line you find in projects such as Supabase, and also MongoDB for that matter, is simply not possible to explain using any known natural phenomenas. **Edit** - _"That feeling"_ when you know somebody is **really, really, really** angry at you ... 😂 ![Chatbot](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/b48p6uupv8f7tlroexz4.png) **Edit 2** - A follow up article about [Supabase versus Magic](https://dev.to/polterguy/supabase-versus-magic-you-win-5n) to explain what I _really_ feel about it ...

In today's fast-paced, information-rich world, AI is revolutionizing knowledge management. The systematic process of capturing, distributing, and effectively using knowledge within an organization is one of the fields in which AI provides exceptional value today. > The potential for AI-powered knowledge management increases when leveraging Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG), a methodology that enables LLMs to access a vast, diverse repository of factual information from knowledge stores, such as vector databases. This process enhances the accuracy, relevance, and reliability of generated text, thereby mitigating the risk of faulty, incorrect, or nonsensical results sometimes associated with traditional LLMs. This method not only ensures that the answers are contextually relevant but also up-to-date, reflecting the latest insights and data available. While RAG enhances the accuracy, relevance, and reliability of traditional LLM solutions, **an evaluation strategy can further help teams ensure their AI products meet these benchmarks of success.** ## Relevant tools for this experiment In this article, we’ll break down a RAG Optimization workflow experiment that demonstrates that evaluation is essential to build a successful RAG strategy. We will use Qdrant and Quotient for this experiment. [Qdrant](https://qdrant.tech/) is a vector database and vector similarity search engine designed for efficient storage and retrieval of high-dimensional vectors. Because Qdrant offers efficient indexing and searching capabilities, it is ideal for implementing RAG solutions, where quickly and accurately retrieving relevant information from extremely large datasets is crucial. Qdrant also offers a wealth of additional features, such as quantization, multivector support and multi-tenancy. Alongside Qdrant we will use Quotient, which provides a seamless way to evaluate your RAG implementation, accelerating and improving the experimentation process. [Quotient](https://www.quotientai.co/) is a platform that provides tooling for AI developers to build evaluation frameworks and conduct experiments on their products. Evaluation is how teams surface the shortcomings of their applications and improve performance in key benchmarks such as faithfulness, and semantic similarity. Iteration is key to building innovative AI products that will deliver value to end users. > 💡 The [accompanying notebook](https://github.com/qdrant/qdrant-rag-eval/tree/master/workshop-rag-eval-qdrant-quotient) for this exercise can be found on GitHub for future reference. ## Summary of key findings 1. **Irrelevance and Hallucinations**: When the documents retrieved are irrelevant, evidenced by low scores in both Chunk Relevance and Context Relevance, the model is prone to generating inaccurate or fabricated information. 2. **Optimizing Document Retrieval**: By retrieving a greater number of documents and reducing the chunk size, we observed improved outcomes in the model's performance. 3. **Adaptive Retrieval Needs**: Certain queries may benefit from accessing more documents. Implementing a dynamic retrieval strategy that adjusts based on the query could enhance accuracy. 4. **Influence of Model and Prompt Variations**: Alterations in language models or the prompts used can significantly impact the quality of the generated responses, suggesting that fine-tuning these elements could optimize performance. Let us walk you through how we arrived at these findings! ## Building a RAG pipeline To evaluate a RAG pipeline , we will have to build a RAG Pipeline first. In the interest of simplicity, we are building a Naive RAG in this article. There are certainly other versions of RAG : ![shades_of_rag.png](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/8ulnki54g5m4xmism86x.png) The illustration below depicts how we can leverage a RAG Evaluation framework to assess the quality of RAG Application. ![qdrant_and_quotient.png](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/cpsymcileyqa6fxwajdy.png) We are going to build a RAG application using Qdrant’s Documentation and the premeditated [hugging face dataset]([https://huggingface.co/datasets/atitaarora/qdrant_doc](https://huggingface.co/datasets/atitaarora/qdrant_doc)). We will then assess our RAG application’s ability to answer questions about Qdrant. To prepare our knowledge store we will use Qdrant, which can be leveraged in 3 different ways as below : ```python ##Uncomment to initialise qdrant client in memory #client = qdrant_client.QdrantClient( # location=":memory:", #) ##Uncomment below to connect to Qdrant Cloud client = qdrant_client.QdrantClient( os.environ.get("QDRANT_URL"), api_key=os.environ.get("QDRANT_API_KEY"), ) ## Uncomment below to connect to local Qdrant #client = qdrant_client.QdrantClient("http://localhost:6333") ``` We will be using [Qdrant Cloud](https://cloud.qdrant.io/login) so it is a good idea to provide the `QDRANT_URL` and `QDRANT_API_KEY` as environment variables for easier access. Moving on, we will need to define the collection name as : ```python COLLECTION_NAME = "qdrant-docs-quotient" ``` In this case , we may need to create different collections based on the experiments we conduct. To help us provide seamless embedding creations throughout the experiment, we will use Qdrant’s native embedding provider [Fastembed]([https://qdrant.github.io/fastembed/](https://qdrant.github.io/fastembed/)) which supports [many different models]([https://qdrant.github.io/fastembed/examples/Supported_Models/](https://qdrant.github.io/fastembed/examples/Supported_Models/)) including dense as well as sparse vector models. We can initialize and switch the embedding model of our choice as below : ```python ## Declaring the intended Embedding Model with Fastembed from fastembed.embedding import TextEmbedding ## General Fastembed specific operations ##Initilising embedding model ## Using Default Model - BAAI/bge-small-en-v1.5 embedding_model = TextEmbedding() ## For custom model supported by Fastembed #embedding_model = TextEmbedding(model_name="BAAI/bge-small-en", max_length=512) #embedding_model = TextEmbedding(model_name="sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2", max_length=384) ## Verify the chosen Embedding model embedding_model.model_name ``` Before implementing RAG, we need to prepare and index our data in Qdrant. This involves converting textual data into vectors using a suitable encoder (e.g., sentence transformers), and storing these vectors in Qdrant for retrieval. ```python from langchain.text_splitter import RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter from langchain.docstore.document import Document as LangchainDocument ## Load the dataset with qdrant documentation dataset = load_dataset("atitaarora/qdrant_doc", split="train") ## Dataset to langchain document langchain_docs = [ LangchainDocument(page_content=doc["text"], metadata={"source": doc["source"]}) for doc in dataset ] len(langchain_docs) #Outputs #240 ``` You can preview documents in the dataset as below : ```python ## Here's an example of what a document in our dataset looks like print(dataset[100]['text']) ``` ## Evaluation dataset To measure the quality of our RAG setup, we will need a representative evaluation dataset. This dataset should contain realistic questions and the expected answers. Additionally, including the expected contexts for which your RAG pipeline is designed to retrieve information would be beneficial. We will be using a [prebuilt evaluation dataset](https://huggingface.co/datasets/atitaarora/qdrant_doc_qna). If you are struggling to make an evaluation dataset for your use case , you can use your documents and some techniques described in this [notebook](https://github.com/qdrant/qdrant-rag-eval/blob/master/synthetic_qna/notebook/Synthetic_question_generation.ipynb) ### Building the RAG pipeline We establish the data preprocessing parameters essential for the RAG pipeline and configure the Qdrant vector database according to the specified criteria. Key parameters under consideration are: - **Chunk size** - **Chunk overlap** - **Embedding model** - **Number of documents retrieved (retrieval window)** Following the ingestion of data in Qdrant, we proceed to retrieve pertinent documents corresponding to each query. These documents are then seamlessly integrated into our evaluation dataset, enriching the contextual information within the designated **`context`** column to fulfil the evaluation aspect. Next we define methods to take care of logistics with respect to adding documents to Qdrant ```python def add_documents(client, collection_name, chunk_size, chunk_overlap, embedding_model_name): """ This function adds documents to the desired Qdrant collection given the specified RAG parameters. """ ## Processing each document with desired TEXT_SPLITTER_ALGO, CHUNK_SIZE, CHUNK_OVERLAP text_splitter = RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter( chunk_size=chunk_size, chunk_overlap=chunk_overlap, add_start_index=True, separators=["\n\n", "\n", ".", " ", ""], ) docs_processed = [] for doc in langchain_docs: docs_processed += text_splitter.split_documents([doc]) ## Processing documents to be encoded by Fastembed docs_contents = [] docs_metadatas = [] for doc in docs_processed: if hasattr(doc, 'page_content') and hasattr(doc, 'metadata'): docs_contents.append(doc.page_content) docs_metadatas.append(doc.metadata) else: # Handle the case where attributes are missing print("Warning: Some documents do not have 'page_content' or 'metadata' attributes.") print("processed: ", len(docs_processed)) print("content: ", len(docs_contents)) print("metadata: ", len(docs_metadatas)) ## Adding documents to Qdrant using desired embedding model client.set_model(embedding_model_name=embedding_model_name) client.add(collection_name=collection_name, metadata=docs_metadatas, documents=docs_contents) ``` and retrieving documents from Qdrant during our RAG Pipeline assessment. ```python def get_documents(collection_name, query, num_documents=3): """ This function retrieves the desired number of documents from the Qdrant collection given a query. It returns a list of the retrieved documents. """ search_results = client.query( collection_name=collection_name, query_text=query, limit=num_documents, ) results = [r.metadata["document"] for r in search_results] return results ``` ### Setting up Quotient You will need an account log in, which you can get by requesting access on [Quotient's website](https://www.quotientai.co/). Once you have an account, you can create an API key by running the `quotient authenticate` CLI command. <aside> 💡 Be sure to save your API key, since it will only be displayed once (Note: you will not have to repeat this step again until your API key expires). </aside> **Once you have your API key, make sure to set it as an environment variable called `QUOTIENT_API_KEY`** ```python # Import QuotientAI client and connect to QuotientAI from quotientai.client import QuotientClient from quotientai.utils import show_job_progress # IMPORTANT: be sure to set your API key as an environment variable called QUOTIENT_API_KEY # You will need this set before running the code below. You may also uncomment the following line and insert your API key: # os.environ['QUOTIENT_API_KEY'] = "YOUR_API_KEY" quotient = QuotientClient() ``` **QuotientAI** provides a seamless way to integrate *RAG evaluation* into your applications. Here, we'll see how to use it to evaluate text generated from an LLM, based on retrieved knowledge from the Qdrant vector database. After retrieving the top similar documents and populating the `context` column, we can submit the evaluation dataset to Quotient and execute an evaluation job. To run a job, all you need is your evaluation dataset and a `recipe`. ***A recipe is a combination of a prompt template and a specified LLM.*** **Quotient** orchestrates the evaluation run and handles version control and asset management throughout the experimentation process. ***Prior to assessing our RAG solution, it's crucial to outline our optimization goals.*** In the context of *question-answering on Qdrant documentation*, our focus extends beyond merely providing helpful responses. Ensuring the absence of any *inaccurate or misleading information* is paramount. In other words, **we want to minimize hallucinations** in the LLM outputs. For our evaluation, we will be considering the following metrics, with a focus on **Faithfulness**: - **Context Relevance** - **Chunk Relevance** - **Faithfulness** - **ROUGE-L** - **BERT Sentence Similarity** - **BERTScore** ### Evaluation in action The function below takes an evaluation dataset as input, which in this case contains questions and their corresponding answers. It retrieves relevant documents based on the questions in the dataset and populates the context field with this information from Qdrant. The prepared dataset is then submitted to QuotientAI for evaluation for the chosen metrics. After the evaluation is complete, the function displays aggregated statistics on the evaluation metrics followed by the summarized evaluation results. ```python def run_eval(eval_df, collection_name, recipe_id, num_docs=3, path="eval_dataset_qdrant_questions.csv"): """ This function evaluates the performance of a complete RAG pipeline on a given evaluation dataset. Given an evaluation dataset (containing questions and ground truth answers), this function retrieves relevant documents, populates the context field, and submits the dataset to QuotientAI for evaluation. Once the evaluation is complete, aggregated statistics on the evaluation metrics are displayed. The evaluation results are returned as a pandas dataframe. """ # Add context to each question by retrieving relevant documents eval_df['documents'] = eval_df.apply(lambda x: get_documents(collection_name=collection_name, query=x['input_text'], num_documents=num_docs), axis=1) eval_df['context'] = eval_df.apply(lambda x: "\n".join(x['documents']), axis=1) # Now we'll save the eval_df to a CSV eval_df.to_csv(path, index=False) # Upload the eval dataset to QuotientAI dataset = quotient.create_dataset( file_path=path, name="qdrant-questions-eval-v1", ) # Create a new task for the dataset task = quotient.create_task( dataset_id=dataset['id'], name='qdrant-questions-qa-v1', task_type='question_answering' ) # Run a job to evaluate the model job = quotient.create_job( task_id=task['id'], recipe_id=recipe_id, num_fewshot_examples=0, limit=500, metric_ids=[5, 7, 8, 11, 12, 13, 50], ) # Show the progress of the job show_job_progress(quotient, job['id']) # Once the job is complete, we can get our results data = quotient.get_eval_results(job_id=job['id']) # Add the results to a pandas dataframe to get statistics on performance df = pd.json_normalize(data, "results") df_stats = df[df.columns[df.columns.str.contains("metric|completion_time")]] df.columns = df.columns.str.replace("metric.", "") df_stats.columns = df_stats.columns.str.replace("metric.", "") metrics = { 'completion_time_ms':'Completion Time (ms)', 'chunk_relevance': 'Chunk Relevance', 'selfcheckgpt_nli_relevance':"Context Relevance", 'selfcheckgpt_nli':"Faithfulness", 'rougeL_fmeasure':"ROUGE-L", 'bert_score_f1':"BERTScore", 'bert_sentence_similarity': "BERT Sentence Similarity", 'completion_verbosity':"Completion Verbosity", 'verbosity_ratio':"Verbosity Ratio",} df = df.rename(columns=metrics) df_stats = df_stats.rename(columns=metrics) display(df_stats[metrics.values()].describe()) return df main_metrics = [ 'Context Relevance', 'Chunk Relevance', 'Faithfulness', 'ROUGE-L', 'BERT Sentence Similarity', 'BERTScore', ] ``` ## Experimentation Our approach is rooted in the belief that improvement thrives in an environment of exploration and discovery. By systematically testing and tweaking various components of the RAG pipeline, we aim to incrementally enhance its capabilities and performance. In the following section, we dive into the details of our experimentation process, outlining the specific experiments conducted and the insights gained. ### Experiment 1 - Baseline Parameters - **Embedding Model: `bge-small-en`** - **Chunk size: `512`** - **Chunk overlap: `64`** - **Number of docs retrieved (Retireval Window): `3`** - **LLM: `Mistral-7B-Instruct`** We’ll process our documents based on configuration above and ingest them into Qdrant using `add_documents` method introduced earlier ```python #experiment1 - base config chunk_size = 512 chunk_overlap = 64 embedding_model_name = "BAAI/bge-small-en" num_docs = 3 COLLECTION_NAME = f"experiment_{chunk_size}_{chunk_overlap}_{embedding_model_name.split('/')[1]}" add_documents(client, collection_name=COLLECTION_NAME, chunk_size=chunk_size, chunk_overlap=chunk_overlap, embedding_model_name=embedding_model_name) #Outputs #processed: 4504 #content: 4504 #metadata: 4504 ``` Notice the `COLLECTION_NAME` which helps us segregate and identify our collections based on the experiments conducted. To proceed with the evaluation, let’s create the `evaluation recipe` up next ```python # Create a recipe for the generator model and prompt template recipe_mistral = quotient.create_recipe( model_id=10, prompt_template_id=1, name='mistral-7b-instruct-qa-with-rag', description='Mistral-7b-instruct using a prompt template that includes context.' ) recipe_mistral #Outputs recipe JSON with the used prompt template #'prompt_template': {'id': 1, # 'name': 'Default Question Answering Template', # 'variables': '["input_text","context"]', # 'created_at': '2023-12-21T22:01:54.632367', # 'template_string': 'Question: {input_text}\\n\\nContext: {context}\\n\\nAnswer:', # 'owner_profile_id': None} ``` To get a list of your existing recipes, you can simply run: ```python quotient.list_recipes() ``` Notice the recipe template is a simplest prompt using `Question` from evaluation template `Context` from document chunks retrieved from Qdrant and `Answer` generated by the pipeline. To kick off the evaluation ```python # Kick off an evaluation job experiment_1 = run_eval(eval_df, collection_name=COLLECTION_NAME, recipe_id=recipe_mistral['id'], num_docs=num_docs, path=f"{COLLECTION_NAME}_{num_docs}_mistral.csv") ``` This may take few minutes (depending on the size of evaluation dataset!) We can look at the results from our first (baseline) experiment as below : ![experiment1_eval.png](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/row9lmss3alskdh2qepq.png) Notice that we have a pretty **low average Chunk Relevance** and **very large standard deviations for both Chunk Relevance and Context Relevance**. Let's take a look at some of the lower performing datapoints with **poor Faithfulness**: ```python with pd.option_context('display.max_colwidth', 0): display(experiment_1[['content.input_text', 'content.answer','content.documents','Chunk Relevance','Context Relevance','Faithfulness'] ].sort_values(by='Faithfulness').head(2)) ``` ![experiment1_bad_examples.png](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/r9vm573by4ph4e8kc3bq.png) In instances where the retrieved documents are **irrelevant (where both Chunk Relevance and Context Relevance are low)**, the model also shows **tendencies to hallucinate** and **produce poor quality responses**. The quality of the retrieved text directly impacts the quality of the LLM-generated answer. Therefore, our focus will be on enhancing the RAG setup by **adjusting the chunking parameters**. ### Experiment 2 - Adjusting the chunk parameter Keeping all other parameters constant, we changed the `chunk size` and `chunk overlap` to see if we can improve our results. Parameters : - **Embedding Model : `bge-small-en`** - **Chunk size: `1024`** - **Chunk overlap: `128`** - **Number of docs retrieved (Retireval Window): `3`** - **LLM: `Mistral-7B-Instruct`** We will reprocess the data with the updated parameters above: ```python ## for iteration 2 - lets modify chunk configuration ## We will start with creating seperate collection to store vectors chunk_size = 1024 chunk_overlap = 128 embedding_model_name = "BAAI/bge-small-en" num_docs = 3 COLLECTION_NAME = f"experiment_{chunk_size}_{chunk_overlap}_{embedding_model_name.split('/')[1]}" add_documents(client, collection_name=COLLECTION_NAME, chunk_size=chunk_size, chunk_overlap=chunk_overlap, embedding_model_name=embedding_model_name) #Outputs #processed: 2152 #content: 2152 #metadata: 2152 ``` Followed by running evaluation : ![experiment2_eval.png](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/gjiy3g9fc2xhfx32ehdl.png) and **comparing it with the results from Experiment 1:** ![graph_exp1_vs_exp2.png](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/ttjhfft3yvcpi5thnj65.png) We observed slight enhancements in our LLM completion metrics (including BERT Sentence Similarity, BERTScore, ROUGE-L, and Knowledge F1) with the increase in *chunk size*. However, it's noteworthy that there was a significant decrease in *Faithfulness*, which is the primary metric we are aiming to optimize. Moreover, *Context Relevance* demonstrated an increase, indicating that the RAG pipeline retrieved more relevant information required to address the query. Nonetheless, there was a considerable drop in *Chunk Relevance*, implying that a smaller portion of the retrieved documents contained pertinent information for answering the question. **The correlation between the rise in Context Relevance and the decline in Chunk Relevance suggests that retrieving more documents using the smaller chunk size might yield improved results.** ### Experiment 3 - Increasing the number of documents retrieved (retrieval window) This time, we are using the same RAG setup as `Experiment 1`, but increasing the number of retrieved documents from **3** to **5**. Parameters : - **Embedding Model : `bge-small-en`** - **Chunk size: `512`** - **Chunk overlap: `64`** - **Number of docs retrieved (Retrieval Window): `5`** - **LLM: : `Mistral-7B-Instruct`** We can use the collection from Experiment 1 and run evaluation with modified `num_docs` parameter as : ```python #collection name from Experiment 1 COLLECTION_NAME = f"experiment_{chunk_size}_{chunk_overlap}_{embedding_model_name.split('/')[1]}" #running eval for experiment 3 experiment_3 = run_eval(eval_df, collection_name=COLLECTION_NAME, recipe_id=recipe_mistral['id'], num_docs=num_docs, path=f"{COLLECTION_NAME}_{num_docs}_mistral.csv") ``` Observe the results as below : ![experiment_3_eval.png](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/mzgbi7q5wg4p7wvbljvk.png) Comparing the results with Experiments 1 and 2 : ![graph_exp1_exp2_exp3.png](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/3rh1y1rv70jwdminiw4x.png) As anticipated, employing the smaller chunk size while retrieving a larger number of documents resulted in achieving the highest levels of both *Context Relevance* and *Chunk Relevance.* Additionally, it yielded the **best** (albeit marginal) *Faithfulness* score, indicating a *reduced occurrence of inaccuracies or hallucinations*. Looks like we have achieved a good hold on our chunking parameters but it is worth testing another embedding model to see if we can get better results. ### Experiment 4 - Changing the embedding model Let us try using **MiniLM** for this experiment ****Parameters : - **Embedding Model : `MiniLM-L6-v2`** - **Chunk size: `512`** - **Chunk overlap: `64`** - **Number of docs retrieved (Retrieval Window): `5`** - **LLM: : `Mistral-7B-Instruct`** We will have to create another collection for this experiment : ```python #experiment-4 chunk_size=512 chunk_overlap=64 embedding_model_name="sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2" num_docs=5 COLLECTION_NAME = f"experiment_{chunk_size}_{chunk_overlap}_{embedding_model_name.split('/')[1]}" add_documents(client, collection_name=COLLECTION_NAME, chunk_size=chunk_size, chunk_overlap=chunk_overlap, embedding_model_name=embedding_model_name) #Outputs #processed: 4504 #content: 4504 #metadata: 4504 ``` We will observe our evaluations as : ![experiment4_eval.png](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/3n3jaa7haux468lj7fta.png) Comparing these with our previous experiments : ![graph_exp1_exp2_exp3_exp4.png](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/z9rrit3pjg4in0owhq84.png) It appears that `bge-small` was more proficient in capturing the semantic nuances of the Qdrant Documentation. Up to this point, our experimentation has focused solely on the *retrieval aspect* of our RAG pipeline. Now, let's explore altering the *generation aspect* or LLM while retaining the optimal parameters identified in Experiment 3. ### Experiment 5 - Changing the LLM Parameters : - **Embedding Model : `bge-small-en`** - **Chunk size: `512`** - **Chunk overlap: `64`** - **Number of docs retrieved (Retrieval Window): `5`** - **LLM: : `GPT-3.5-turbo`** For this we can repurpose our collection from Experiment 3 while the evaluations to use a new recipe with **GPT-3.5-turbo** model. ```python #collection name from Experiment 3 COLLECTION_NAME = f"experiment_{chunk_size}_{chunk_overlap}_{embedding_model_name.split('/')[1]}" # We have to create a recipe using the same prompt template and GPT-3.5-turbo recipe_gpt = quotient.create_recipe( model_id=5, prompt_template_id=1, name='gpt3.5-qa-with-rag-recipe-v1', description='GPT-3.5 using a prompt template that includes context.' ) recipe_gpt #Outputs #{'id': 495, # 'name': 'gpt3.5-qa-with-rag-recipe-v1', # 'description': 'GPT-3.5 using a prompt template that includes context.', # 'model_id': 5, # 'prompt_template_id': 1, # 'created_at': '2024-05-03T12:14:58.779585', # 'owner_profile_id': 34, # 'system_prompt_id': None, # 'prompt_template': {'id': 1, # 'name': 'Default Question Answering Template', # 'variables': '["input_text","context"]', # 'created_at': '2023-12-21T22:01:54.632367', # 'template_string': 'Question: {input_text}\\n\\nContext: {context}\\n\\nAnswer:', # 'owner_profile_id': None}, # 'model': {'id': 5, # 'name': 'gpt-3.5-turbo', # 'endpoint': 'https://api.openai.com/v1/chat/completions', # 'revision': 'placeholder', # 'created_at': '2024-02-06T17:01:21.408454', # 'model_type': 'OpenAI', # 'description': 'Returns a maximum of 4K output tokens.', # 'owner_profile_id': None, # 'external_model_config_id': None, # 'instruction_template_cls': 'NoneType'}} ``` Running the evaluations as : ```python experiment_5 = run_eval(eval_df, collection_name=COLLECTION_NAME, recipe_id=recipe_gpt['id'], num_docs=num_docs, path=f"{COLLECTION_NAME}_{num_docs}_gpt.csv") ``` We observe : ![experiment5_eval.png](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/ka3rvdenj2d7tlnld1yu.png) and comparing all the 5 experiments as below : ![graph_exp1_exp2_exp3_exp4_exp5.png](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/mh8bxpxfpvpo7xep18cu.png) **GPT-3.5 surpassed Mistral-7B in all metrics**! Notably, Experiment 5 exhibited the **lowest occurrence of hallucination**. ## Conclusions Let’s take a look at our results from all 5 experiments above ![overall_eval_results.png](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/h3p3ddfuy7cgqdb8i4mu.png) We still have a long way to go in improving the retrieval performance of RAG, as indicated by our generally poor results thus far. It might be beneficial to **explore alternative embedding models** or **different retrieval strategies** to address this issue. The significant variations in *Context Relevance* suggest that **certain questions may necessitate retrieving more documents than others**. Therefore, investigating a **dynamic retrieval strategy** could be worthwhile. Furthermore, there's ongoing **exploration required on the generative aspect** of RAG. Modifying LLMs or prompts can substantially impact the overall quality of responses. This iterative process demonstrates how, starting from scratch, continual evaluation and adjustments throughout experimentation can lead to the development of an enhanced RAG system. ## Watch this workshop on YouTube > A workshop version of this article is [available on YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3MEMPZR1aZA).

As developers, we often find ourselves lost in the intricacies of code, focusing on functionality and design. However, there's another crucial aspect of web development that we sometimes overlook: Search Engine Optimization (SEO). In this post, we'll explore why SEO is essential for developers and how we can incorporate it into our workflow. SEO isn't just about keywords and meta tags; it's about creating a better, more accessible web. At its core, SEO aims to make our websites more discoverable and user-friendly. When we optimize for search engines, we're really optimizing for users. One of the fundamental aspects of SEO is content quality. Search engines prioritize sites that provide valuable, relevant information to users. As developers, we need to work closely with content creators to ensure that our sites not only function well but also deliver meaningful content structured in a way that both users and search engines can easily understand. Site performance is another critical factor. Search engines favor fast-loading sites, which aligns perfectly with our goals as developers. By optimizing our code, minimizing HTTP requests, leveraging browser caching, and efficiently handling assets like images, we're not just improving SEO – we're creating a better user experience. Mobile-friendliness has become increasingly important with Google's move to mobile-first indexing. This means that responsive design isn't just a nice-to-have; it's essential for SEO. As developers, we need to ensure our sites perform well across all devices. Security is another aspect where SEO and good development practices intersect. Implementing HTTPS not only protects user data but also gives a slight boost in search rankings. It's a win-win situation that aligns with our responsibility to create secure web applications. Semantic HTML and structured data (like Schema.org markup) play a crucial role in helping search engines understand our content. By using appropriate HTML5 elements and implementing structured data, we're essentially speaking the language of search engines, helping them to better interpret and display our content in search results. While some aspects of SEO, like link building, may seem outside a developer's purview, understanding these concepts can help us create sites that are more likely to attract quality backlinks. By focusing on performance, accessibility, and user experience, we're laying the groundwork for a site that others will want to link to. Incorporating SEO into our development process doesn't have to be overwhelming. Start by focusing on the basics: clean, semantic code, fast load times, mobile responsiveness, and secure connections. As you become more comfortable with these concepts, you can dive deeper into more advanced SEO techniques. Remember, SEO is an ongoing process, not a one-time task. Stay curious, keep learning, and don't be afraid to ask for help. By embracing SEO, we can create websites that not only function beautifully but also reach and serve our intended audience effectively. What are your thoughts on SEO as a developer? Have you found ways to incorporate SEO best practices into your development workflow? Share your experiences and let's learn from each other!

The global mobile app market has been growing at more than 11.5% per year and is now worth more than $154.06 billion after the COVID-19 shift toward remote work has increased and time spent online has gone up. With over 10.97 billion mobile connections worldwide, the demand for sophisticated, high-performance B2B and B2C mobile apps is increasing. The main reason for app abandonment is poor user experience. This includes a perplexing UI/UX and an excessive number of bugs. Loading times are slow. Continuous testing for mobile applications is required to ensure that a mobile app functions properly on both iOS and Android. In addition, mobile app testing can be difficult, involving numerous platforms, operating systems, and network connections. This post will walk you through the entire mobile app testing process step by step. Our experience in this field will assist you in avoiding traps and pitfalls. Testing is essential for developing a dependable product. Testing is an essential component of the lifecycle of a mobile application. However, due to the time and effort required to complete the entire cycle of app testing, it is frequently overlooked by developers. A product should be tested at each stage to ensure that it is reliable and enjoyable to use. In essence, mobile application testing is similar to website testing. In this post, we’ll go over all stages of application testing and explain how to test mobile apps. ## Step-By-Step Guide to Mobile App Testing Automation ### Step 1. Setup Mobile App Automation Testing Goals Software testing is a crucial step in the development process to ensure that an app will function as intended and be resilient to unforeseen circumstances. **How can mobile apps be tested?** The way you develop is similar to how you test mobile applications. To ensure that your applications function properly, you should perform testing frequently during development and maintenance. As you climb the pyramid, the end user is closer to you. User feedback is a form of testing. The closer you are to the user, the harder it is to automate your testing. ### Step 2: Plan Test Cases The test cases you will use as your project develops are described in the [Agile testing](https://testgrid.io/blog/agile-test-automation/) matrix/testing quadrants. It’s critical to remember that testing is not a sequential procedure or a step in the product development process. Instead, it’s a crucial component of each Agile sprint. The crucial test case is: - Repeated often or is repetitive - Involves time-consuming data entry - Subject to human error - Low risk Automation is not a good fit for a test case that relies on subjective feedback (such as UI/UX) or involves many steps. Additionally, writing automation code for a test that will only be run once is not worthwhile. You want automation to be helpful because it takes time. The most typical mobile app testing scenarios that can be automated include unit tests, functional tests, and integration tests. ### Step 3: Choose A Test Automation Framework After determining which test cases you want to automate, you must select the appropriate automation framework. This integrated system establishes automated procedures for your test. Let’s examine the top six mobile app testing automation frameworks. Frameworks for Mobile Automation. #### 01 Linear Automation Framework The “record-and-playback model” is another name for this framework, which is very linear and incremental. It’s perfect for straightforward programs or unit tests. #### 02. Modular-Based Testing Framework We use a modular testing framework to create scenarios. Greater testing scenarios can be created by combining modules. More significant test scenarios can be created by combining modules. #### 03 Testing Library Architecture Framework The modular test framework and this framework are very similar. However, we divide common tasks into functional groups rather than using modules. After that, functions are kept in a library. Therefore, it is possible to reference this library when writing test cases, simplifying the process. #### 04 Data-Driven Frameworks Data-driven frameworks acknowledge that even though the test may stay the same, the data may change. This framework retrieves data from an external system when testing a functionality like a login. #### 05 A Framework Driven By Keywords Table-driven is an alternative name for this framework. It enables the development of table-driven frameworks by coupling external test data with actions kept in a table, like Excel. However, these frameworks can be time-consuming, even though various test scripts can access the exact keywords. #### 06 A Hybrid Testing Framework Two or more of these frameworks are referred to as hybrid frameworks. Teams can then design the ideal test environment, thanks to this. ## Step 4: Select the Right Automation Testing Tool You can write test scripts using one or more of the tests mentioned above in automation frameworks with the aid of mobile automation testing tools. A basic understanding of the frameworks can help ensure you get the right tool for the job at hand, even though it is not necessary to thoroughly comprehend them to select the best mobile testing tool. Mobile Application Testing Checklist. When choosing a mobile app testing tool, you may want to take into account the following factors: - OS support - Type of tests supported (unit tests, regression tests, functional tests, etc.) - Ease of use, including script-less test creation, clear and in detail reporting - Integration with existing CI/CD tools - Cost and scalability ## Step 5: Virtual Devices vs. Real Devices The hardware and the operating system (OS) will be subject to thorough mobile app testing (device). However, testing mobile devices is logistically impossible due to the wide range of mobile device types and configurations. Even for Apple, there are 14 generations of devices, with multiple models for each generation, so it may be nice to test on actual devices. Best practices advise testing on at least one of each target device (most recent iOS device, top Android phone, etc.) to be realistic, with the remaining testing being done on virtual devices (known as simulators or emulators). With a slight loss in accuracy, virtual devices can mimic many features of actual devices more quickly and cheaply. ## Conclusion The entire application life cycle must include testing for mobile applications. Successful testing guarantees that the system will operate effectively and satisfactorily and that security regulations will be followed.

In today's digital landscape, ensuring the authenticity of user accounts is paramount for web applications. One effective method to achieve this is through email and mobile number verification using One-Time Passwords (OTPs). This article will guide you through the process of implementing OTP verification in a Django project, explaining its importance and providing actionable steps for implementation. ## Table of Contents 1. [Introduction](#introduction) 2. [Why OTP Verification Matters](#why-otp-verification-matters) 3. [Prerequisites](#prerequisites) 4. [Step-by-Step Implementation](#step-by-step-implementation) 5. [Best Practices and Considerations](#best-practices-and-considerations) 6. [Conclusion](#conclusion) ## Introduction One-Time Passwords (OTPs) are unique, temporary codes used to verify a user's identity. By implementing OTP verification for both email and mobile numbers, you add an extra layer of security to your application, ensuring that users have access to the contact methods they've provided. ## Why OTP Verification Matters 1. **Enhanced Security**: OTP verification significantly reduces the risk of unauthorized access and account takeovers. 2. **User Authentication**: It confirms that users have provided valid contact information, which is crucial for account recovery and communication. 3. **Fraud Prevention**: It helps prevent the creation of fake accounts, as users must prove ownership of their email and phone number. 4. **Compliance**: Many regulatory standards require multi-factor authentication, which OTP verification can help satisfy. 5. **User Trust**: Implementing strong security measures like OTP verification builds user confidence in your application. ## Prerequisites Before we begin, make sure you have the following: - Python 3.x installed - Basic knowledge of Django - A Django project set up (if not, we'll cover that in the steps) ## Step-by-Step Implementation Let's dive into the process of implementing OTP verification in a Django project. ### Step 1: Set up the Django project and app First, let's create a new Django project and app: ```bash django-admin startproject otp_verification cd otp_verification python manage.py startapp user_auth ``` Add 'user_auth' to INSTALLED_APPS in your project's settings.py file: ```python INSTALLED_APPS = [ ... 'user_auth', ] ``` ### Step 2: Install required packages We'll need a couple of additional packages: ```bash pip install django-otp pyotp ``` ### Step 3: Create the User model In your `user_auth/models.py` file, create a custom user model: ```python from django.contrib.auth.models import AbstractUser from django.db import models class CustomUser(AbstractUser): email = models.EmailField(unique=True) mobile_number = models.CharField(max_length=15, unique=True) is_email_verified = models.BooleanField(default=False) is_mobile_verified = models.BooleanField(default=False) email_otp = models.CharField(max_length=6, null=True, blank=True) mobile_otp = models.CharField(max_length=6, null=True, blank=True) ``` ### Step 4: Create OTP generation and verification functions Create a new file `user_auth/utils.py`: ```python import pyotp from datetime import datetime, timedelta def generate_otp(): totp = pyotp.TOTP(pyotp.random_base32(), interval=300) # 5 minutes validity return totp.now() def verify_otp(otp, user_otp): return otp == user_otp ``` ### Step 5: Create views for registration and OTP verification In your `user_auth/views.py` file: ```python from django.shortcuts import render, redirect from django.contrib.auth import login from .models import CustomUser from .utils import generate_otp, verify_otp from django.core.mail import send_mail from django.conf import settings def register(request): if request.method == 'POST': username = request.POST['username'] email = request.POST['email'] mobile_number = request.POST['mobile_number'] password = request.POST['password'] user = CustomUser.objects.create_user(username=username, email=email, mobile_number=mobile_number, password=password) # Generate and save OTPs email_otp = generate_otp() mobile_otp = generate_otp() user.email_otp = email_otp user.mobile_otp = mobile_otp user.save() # Send email OTP send_mail( 'Email Verification OTP', f'Your OTP for email verification is: {email_otp}', settings.EMAIL_HOST_USER, [email], fail_silently=False, ) # Send mobile OTP (you'll need to integrate with an SMS service) # For this example, we'll just print it print(f"Mobile OTP: {mobile_otp}") return redirect('verify_otp', user_id=user.id) return render(request, 'register.html') def verify_otp(request, user_id): user = CustomUser.objects.get(id=user_id) if request.method == 'POST': email_otp = request.POST['email_otp'] mobile_otp = request.POST['mobile_otp'] if verify_otp(email_otp, user.email_otp) and verify_otp(mobile_otp, user.mobile_otp): user.is_email_verified = True user.is_mobile_verified = True user.email_otp = None user.mobile_otp = None user.save() login(request, user) return redirect('home') else: return render(request, 'verify_otp.html', {'error': 'Invalid OTP'}) return render(request, 'verify_otp.html') ``` ### Step 6: Create URL patterns In your `user_auth/urls.py` file: ```python from django.urls import path from . import views urlpatterns = [ path('register/', views.register, name='register'), path('verify_otp/<int:user_id>/', views.verify_otp, name='verify_otp'), ] ``` Don't forget to include these URLs in your project's main `urls.py` file. ### Step 7: Create templates Create two HTML templates in your `templates` directory: `register.html`: ```html <form method="post"> {% csrf_token %} <input type="text" name="username" placeholder="Username" required> <input type="email" name="email" placeholder="Email" required> <input type="text" name="mobile_number" placeholder="Mobile Number" required> <input type="password" name="password" placeholder="Password" required> <button type="submit">Register</button> </form> ``` `verify_otp.html`: ```html <form method="post"> {% csrf_token %} <input type="text" name="email_otp" placeholder="Email OTP" required> <input type="text" name="mobile_otp" placeholder="Mobile OTP" required> <button type="submit">Verify OTP</button> </form> ``` ### Step 8: Configure email settings In your project's `settings.py` file, add the following email configuration: ```python EMAIL_BACKEND = 'django.core.mail.backends.smtp.EmailBackend' EMAIL_HOST = 'smtp.gmail.com' # Use your email provider's SMTP server EMAIL_PORT = 587 EMAIL_USE_TLS = True EMAIL_HOST_USER = 'your_email@gmail.com' EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = 'your_email_password' ``` Replace the placeholder values with your actual email credentials. ### Step 9: Run migrations Apply the database migrations: ```bash python manage.py makemigrations python manage.py migrate ``` ### Step 10: Run the server Start the Django development server: ```bash python manage.py runserver ``` ## Best Practices and Considerations 1. **Security**: In a production environment, use more secure methods for storing OTPs, such as hashing them before saving to the database. 2. **SMS Integration**: Integrate with a reliable SMS service provider to send mobile OTPs. 3. **OTP Expiry**: Implement a mechanism to expire OTPs after a certain time period. 4. **Rate Limiting**: Implement rate limiting to prevent abuse of the OTP generation and verification endpoints. 5. **Error Handling**: Add robust error handling and user feedback for a smoother user experience. 6. **Resend OTP**: Provide an option for users to request a new OTP if they don't receive the first one. 7. **Progressive Enhancement**: Allow users to access limited functionality even if they haven't verified their contact methods, but require verification for sensitive actions. ## Conclusion Implementing email and mobile OTP verification in your Django application significantly enhances security and user trust. By following this guide, you've learned how to set up a basic OTP verification system. Remember to adapt this implementation to your specific needs and always prioritize user data security. As you continue to develop your application, consider integrating additional security measures and regularly updating your authentication methods to stay ahead of potential threats. With OTP verification in place, you're taking a crucial step towards building a more secure and trustworthy web application.

[Click to view the bug report ](https://eu.docworkspace.com/d/sIO-_2OKHAYjslLQG) ## Exploratory Test Report for Scrapeanywebsite Desktop application [Scrape Any Website](https://scrapeanyweb.site/) Date: July 3, 2024 **Objective:** The objective of this test is to explore the functionalities, usability issues and bug within SAW-ScrapeanyWebsite **Tested Environment:** - Browser: Chrome 91.0.4472.124 - Operating System: Windows 11 - Device: Laptop For this exploration, I utilized [Scrape Any Website](https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/9mzxn37vw0s2?hl=en-us&gl=NG), a popular SAW application. Starting with the happy paths, I tested core functionalities like URL extraction, data filtering, and export options. The application successfully extracted data from various websites, allowing me to customize scraping parameters and export results in different formats. ## Test Case: **Functionality Test:** The application crashes when attemping to scrape without providing any input for the URL, and then clicking on save. **Limited Error Handling:** When encountering unexpected website structures or invalid URLs, the application sometimes crashed abruptly without informative error messages. This left me troubleshooting in the dark. Also error of 3xx and 5xx where not taken into consideration a the desktop app, causing a difference in the scrape count to the error code recorded in the scrape statistics sections. ![image showing the bug in count](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/rfyfluvj3wiyrqmyhg18.png) **Usability Issue:** The user interface encounters some frustrating glitches when minimizing and maximizing the application. After minimizing and then maximizing, the log content section doesn't fully return to view. Additionally, when switching to dark mode, the text color remains unchanged, failing to invert with the rest of the UI. This makes it difficult to see if the text box is even accepting user input. **Recommendations for a Smoother SAW Experience** The application should strive to avoid crashing abruptly when encountering unexpected website structures or invalid URLs. Instead, it should implement robust error handling routines that: 1. Identify the issue: Log or display a clear error message pinpointing the specific problem encountered (e.g., "Invalid URL format" or "Unexpected website structure"). 2. Offer recovery options: Whenever possible, provide the user with options to recover from the error. This might involve allowing them to correct the URL, adjust scraping parameters, or skip the problematic website altogether. 3. Provide user guidance: Include suggestions for troubleshooting common errors within the error message itself, empowering users to resolve issues independently. 4. Dynamic Theme Adaptation: Integrate functionality to dynamically adjust the text color based on the chosen theme (light or dark mode). When dark mode is enabled, the text color should invert to ensure proper contrast with the background. This will improve readability and make it clear whether the text box is accepting user input. 5. Visual Cues for User Input: Consider adding visual cues to the text box to indicate its active state, especially when dark mode reduces text contrast. This could include a subtle change in the text box border or a faint cursor indicator to provide better user feedback. --- Despite the identified issues, [Scrape Any Website](https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/9mzxn37vw0s2?hl=en-us&gl=NG) offers a valuable tool for web data extraction. With the suggested improvements, SAW applications like Scrape Any Website can become even more user-friendly and powerful for anyone looking to leverage website data efficiently. It's also worth noting that SAW applications come in various forms, so if Scrape Any Website doesn't suit your specific needs, exploring the Windows Store [Link to Windows Store download page] might reveal alternative options that cater to your scraping requirements.

I have a love-hate relationship with JavaScript! Having worked with it for more than 10 years building sliders, jQuery UIs, and React SPAs, I know its warts and imperfections fairly well, but alas compared to its lesser-known competitor VBScript, I'll take JS thank you! Fast forward to 2024, you can't get very far without deep diving into React for all the UI fanciness that modern apps demand. My favorite web frameworks are Echo (Golang), Laravel(PHP), and Django (Python) but just sometimes, it's better to do everything in one stack. ## Typescript is weird 🤷 I am all too familiar with strongly typed languages like Go and C#, but TypeScript just feels more verbose and "dirty". I am Minimalist at heart - so that's probably why. Anyway, after throwing up a bit 🤮 I got over the weirdness and am fairly comfortable with it now. Not my favorite language ever, but it's okay I guess. ## Next.js is lean and clean One of my major problems with Laravel; don't get me wrong, it's a beautiful and powerful framework, but there's just too much stuff! Controllers, routes, views, livewire, and the list goes on and on... Next.js favors convention over configuration; the skeleton template comes with just a handful of folders/files and a big bonus: you get React baked in. The routing is a breeze, maybe I'm too lazy 🙄 but setting up a Controller, then a view, and then a route in Laravel is tedious. In Next.js, you just create a folder with "page.tsx" file, and Tada! you have a working route at "/something". The same applies to API routes. Simple directory-based routing, it's like PHP from back in the day. I like the MVC structure but heavy UI apps with React will then require a hundred API endpoints and "Axios" or "fetch", plus authentication and all that Jazz! I ain't got time for that! Furthermore, since you writing your views in React and Typescript, you can easily share code between the frontend and backend with ease. ## Next.js is innovative for startups Server-side components are like the old Microsoft Web Pages concept re-invented with a touch of class! Having this close binding with the frontend makes me so much more productive. I am an innovator and spend a large percentage of my time researching and building MVPs. Scaling and unit testing, all the enterprise stuff at this stage is not essential, the goal is to build a proof of concept or find product market fit usually, thus server-side components make the most sense for frontend rich SaaS-type apps. ## I would stick with Golang or Laravel for bigger projects While Next.js is cool and makes building frontend-rich apps much easier, large commercial-type apps with lots of backend heavy lifting probably are not a good fit. Laravel's biggest weakness is also its biggest strength, for bigger enterprise-type applications, you basically can find all the packages and tools in one place optimized and maintained by the Laravel core team. In Next.js you often have to rely on 3rd party packages for nearly everything. Even something as simple as a CRON job is not natively baked into the framework 😱

Are you dying to watch your favourite TV serial but the fuzzy signals and somewhat uncertain disconnections are breaking the fun!(: You are not the only one who had to deal with this annoying problem! Electromagnetic interference (EMI) is what causes these interruptions. Coaxial cable shielding saviors the day and makes sure your that transmissions keep rolling, smooth and unobstructed. Shielding on a Coax Cable Explained The shielding of a coaxial cable is essentially an extra layer, usually made to protect the wires in your cables using material that can conduct electricity; examples being copper. The function of this shield is to murder all wrapping electromagnetic interference that may have disrupted the copper solid wire quality of your signal. At the same time, it limits that signal to inside the cable, where you want it in order to get from A-to-B as rapidly and efficiently as possible. Benefits of Coaxial Cable Shieldings Perhaps the most notable aspect of coaxial cable shielding is its capacity to deflect EMI, which in turn lets your signal shine through loud and clear. EMI can enter into your home through motors, or transformers but if proper shielding is done it will be blocked. In addition, the coaxial cable shielding is widely recognized for its great quality and almost zero signal loss capability creating a premium transmission line suitable not only for TV but also with internet applications. Revoltionary Coaxial Cable Shielding Technology As technology advances, so does the realm of coaxial cable shielding. There have been innovations, like adding layers of shielding or using new materials such as aluminum and steel to help shield against EMI. Moreover, methods such as braided shielding have been a very effective method to minimize the EMI up to substantial level. These advancements have gone a long way in providing the users with connection robustness and seamless connectivity exposure over coaxial cables, without any attenuation of signals. Safety precautions to consider Though coaxial cable shielding is generally safe for use, it still highly important to ensure safety during installation. Despite the cables being shielded, you should treat them carefully since they are capable of carrying electrical currents. But dont forget to wear a rubber glove and keep distance from an electric source when you are setting up the cables. Shielding in Coaxial Cable for Proper Usage The first step in getting proper use out of the shielding, is understanding what type of connection your setup calls for. For homes that are coaxial-enabled, connecting the cables is a cinch -- just plug in your rg58 coax cable device with an outlet connection and you're good to stream. If you have an older home without coaxial wiring installed already, you may need a very short run of coax using our female-to-female adapter. The adapter can then be connected to the un used output of your device and by linking one end odof cable into both the adapters ahd wall socket. How Shielded Coax Cables Improve Service Quality Using Coaxial Cable shielding always helps you in getting better services. In addition to other technical advantages, such as less signal interference and cross-talk between cables in your home - an attribute thanks mainly to its shielding system that makes it harder for them to detach from their jacks when inserted into the device you are hooking up with (although whether this truly saves hassle or not is debatable) so they stay connected more firmly than most thus yielding fewer interruptions during use time &, hopefully allowing only high quality transmission all throughout without any dropouts whatsoever! In addition, the high-quality coaxial cables have a long lifespan and thus last for several years in proper condition you do not face any problems. Coaxial Cable Shielding Varieties While wireless internet is prevalent in our world, maintaining a solid signal from your television and laptop relies on coaxial cable shielding. In addition, in big residential and commercial buildings where signal coverage might be a problem to processional coaxial cable shielding offers significant help providing strong stable functioning signals without any interruptions. To Conclude To sum up, it can be said that the shielding of coaxial cable presents itself as a required factor for all those who choose with cables. It does not only improve the reliability of connection but helps in reducing any external interfacing that may affect your screen time. This way, with safe installation and the right quality rg58 cable you can enjoy a reliable connection without EMI related annoyances.

Safety Considerations When using chopped strand mat, it is important to observe safety protocol diligently Glass fibers contained in the chopped strand mat are an inhalation hazard. Therefore, workers must protect themselves while dealing with insulation. Keeping the material in dry, clean conditions away from heat and flame sources is necessary to avoid its spoilage and pollution. How to Use Chopped Strand Mat We will discuss a step by step procedure of chopped strand mat in the production of reinforced plastics First off, cut the chopped strand mat to desired shape and size. Layer your tin or surface nicely. Paint with resin and let the paint dry completely. Ensuring that there are no wrinkles or air pockets will not on provide a great and even layout, but strength at the seams. In addition, the choice of resin will also play a key role in effecting the properties of this final 3k twill weave carbon fiber product. Service and Quality However, pad printing can be a complex method to master so it is important that by partnering with reputable supplier for this decoration technique. Look for a supplier with an extensive selection of chopped strand mat choices so that more applications can be accounted for. Choose a provider that will offer world class guidance and products of phenomenal standard. Reinforced Plastics Applications From industrial through commercial to residential reinforced plastics can be found in all sectors. Used in constructing everything from auto parts to the structure of a boat, roofing for commercial buildings and even furniture pieces these materials are intended using durable composite construction processes. Chopped strand reinforced plastics are much stronger and more durable than normal plastic, which is obviously useful in high reliability; applications. In conclusion, the addition of chopped strand mat to composites has always been a definite improvement for plastics. Its durability, flexibility and low-cost make it the preferred choice among other applications. Working with a reliable supplier guarantees the availability of top-notch 4 oz fiberglass cloth materials, leading to outstanding final results. It is essential to follow safety regulations when cutting chopped strand mat material for a safer workplace.

https://dev.to/don-fortune/linux-user-creation-bash-script-73h
## Problem Statement Your company [hng](https://hng.tech/internship) has employed many new developers. As a SysOps engineer, write a bash script called `create_users.sh` that reads a text file containing the employee’s usernames and group names, where each line is formatted as `user;groups`. The script should create users and groups as specified, set up home directories with appropriate permissions and ownership, generate random passwords for the users, and log all actions to `/var/log/user_management.log`. Additionally, store the generated passwords securely in `/var/secure/user_passwords.txt`. Ensure error handling for scenarios like existing users and provide clear documentation and comments within the script. ## Case Study Let's start with a text file, `developers.txt` for [hng hire](https://hng.tech/hire): `light;sudo,dev,www-data idimma;sudo mayowa;dev,www-data` The above file lists the developers: light, idimma, and mayowa, with a list of groups separated by commas `sudo, www-data, dev`. Our job now is to create a bash script that will take this file (`developers.txt`) and process it. ## Solution 1. `#!/usr/bin/bash` - The shebang line tells the system that this script should run with the bash shell. 2. ` log() { echo "$(date '+%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S') - $1" >> "$LOG_FILE" } ` - Defines a function `log` to log messages with timestamps to the log file specified by `LOG_FILE`. 3. ` generate_password() { local password_length=8 tr -dc A-Za-z0-9 </dev/urandom | head -c $password_length } ` - Defines a function to generate a random password for developers. 4. ` if [ "$(id -u)" -ne 0 ]; then echo "Run script as root user or try using sudo " >&2 log "Script not run as root or with sudo privileges" exit 1 fi ` - Verifies that the script is run as root user. 5. ` USER_FILE="$1" LOG_FILE="/var/log/user_management.log" PASSWORD_FILE="/var/secure/user_passwords.txt" ` - Define Paths: - `USER_FILE` = first argument - `LOG_FILE` = keeps operational logs - `PASSWORD_FILE` = stores the randomly generated passwords 6. ` if [ -z "$USER_FILE" ]; then echo "Usage: $0 <name-of-text-file>" log "Error: No file provided. Usage: $0 <name-of-text-file>" exit 1 fi ` - Checks if a filename is provided as an argument. If not, logs an error and exits. 7. ` if [ ! -f "$USER_FILE" ]; then echo "File does not exist" log "File '$USER_FILE' not found" exit 1 fi ` - Checks if the provided user file exists. If not, logs an error and exits. 8. ` if [ ! -f "$LOG_FILE" ]; then touch "$LOG_FILE" chmod 0600 "$LOG_FILE" log "Log file created: $LOG_FILE" fi ` - Creates the log file if it doesn't exist and sets its permissions to be readable and writable only by the owner. 9. ` if [ ! -f "$PASSWORD_FILE" ]; then mkdir -p /var/secure touch "$PASSWORD_FILE" chmod 0600 "$PASSWORD_FILE" log "Password file created: $PASSWORD_FILE" fi ` - Creates the password file if it doesn't exist, ensuring it is stored securely by setting appropriate permissions. 10. ` users_created=false user_creation_failed=false password_setting_failed=false group_creation_failed=false home_directory_setup_failed=false all_users_exist=true any_users_created=false ` - Initializes various flags to track the success or failure of different operations. 11. ` validate_username() { if [[ ! "$1" =~ ^[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+$ ]]; then return 1 fi return 0 } validate_groups() { IFS=',' read -ra group_list <<< "$1" for group in "${group_list[@]}"; do if [[ ! "$group" =~ ^[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+$ ]]; then return 1 fi done return 0 } ` - Defines functions `validate_username` and `validate_groups` to ensure usernames and groups are valid, using regex checks. 12. ` while IFS=';' read -r username groups; do # Trim whitespace from username and groups username=$(echo "$username" | xargs) groups=$(echo "$groups" | xargs) ` - Reads the user file line by line, splitting each line into `username` and `groups` variables, and trims any whitespace. 13. ` if [ -z "$username" ] || [ -z "$groups" ]; then log "Invalid line format in user file: '$username;$groups'" user_creation_failed=true continue fi if ! validate_username "$username"; then log "Invalid username format: '$username'" user_creation_failed=true continue fi if ! validate_groups "$groups"; then log "Invalid group format: '$groups'" group_creation_failed=true continue fi ` - Validates the format of each line in the user file, logging errors and setting flags as necessary. 14. ` if id "$username" &>/dev/null; then log "User $username already exists." continue fi # User does not exist, so there's work to be done all_users_exist=false ` - Checks if the user already exists. If so, logs a message and skips to the next user. Otherwise, sets a flag indicating new users need to be created. 15. ` if ! getent group "$username" > /dev/null; then if groupadd "$username"; then log "Group $username created." else log "Failed to create group $username." group_creation_failed=true continue fi fi ` - Creates a personal group for the user if it doesn't already exist, logging the outcome. 16. ` IFS=',' read -ra group_list <<< "$groups" for group in "${group_list[@]}"; do if ! getent group "$group" > /dev/null; then if groupadd "$group"; then log "Group $group created." else log "Failed to create group $group." group_creation_failed=true fi fi done unset IFS ` - Creates any additional groups if they don't already exist, logging the outcome. 17. ` if useradd -m -g "$username" -G "$groups" "$username"; then log "User $username created and added to groups $groups" users_created=true any_users_created=true else log "Failed to create user $username" user_creation_failed=true continue fi ` - Creates the user, assigns them to the primary group, and adds them to additional groups, logging the outcome. 18. ` password=$(generate_password) log "Generated password for $username" ` - Generates a random password and sets the user's password, storing it securely. ` # Set the user's password if echo "$username:$password" | chpasswd; then # Store the password securely in TXT format echo "$username,$password" >> "$PASSWORD_FILE" log "Password set for $username and stored securely" else log "Failed to set password for $username" password_setting_failed=true continue fi ` 19. ` if chown "$username:$username" "/home/$username" && chmod 700 "/home/$username"; then log "Home directory for $username set up with appropriate permissions." else log "Failed to set up home directory for $username" home_directory_setup_failed=true fi ` - Sets the correct permissions and ownership for the user's home directory, logging the outcome. 20. ` done < "$USER_FILE" ` - Ends the while loop that processes each line of the user file. 21. ` log "User creation script run completed." if [ "$any_users_created" = true ]; then echo "$(date '+%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S') - User creation script completed successfully." elif [ "$all_users_exist" = true ]; then echo "Users already exist. Nothing left to do" else echo "$(date '+%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S') - No users were created successfully. Check log file." log "No users were created successfully. Please check the input file format: username;group1,group2,group3." fi ` - Logs a summary of the script's execution and prints appropriate messages to the console based on the success or failure of user creation. 22. ` [ "$user_creation_failed" = true ] && echo "Users creation incomplete." && log "Some users were not created due to errors. Check file format" [ "$password_setting_failed" = true ] && echo "Users' passwords creation incomplete." && log "Some users' passwords were not set due to errors. Check file format" [ "$group_creation_failed" = true ] && echo "Groups creation incomplete." && log "Some groups were not created due to errors. Check file format" [ "$home_directory_setup_failed" = true ] && echo "Home directories creation incomplete." && log "Some home directories were not set up due to errors." ` - Checks various flags and logs additional error messages if any failures occurred during the script's execution. 23. ` exit 0 ` - Exits the script with a success status code. To call the script `create_users.sh`, you need to provide the path to the user file as an argument. The user file should contain lines formatted as `username;group1,group2,group3`. Here's the general format for calling the script: ` sudo ./create_users.sh <name-of-text-file> `

trpc, openai, typescript, react
# Purpose In chat services powered by generative AI like OpenAI's ChatGPT and Anthropic's Claude, a **UI that gradually displays text by receiving data streamed from the generative AI model** is adopted. With a typical request/response format, you need to wait until the AI processing is completely finished, which can cause the client side to display a loading screen for tens of seconds depending on the processing content. Therefore, **receiving and displaying data little by little through streaming is good for UX**. As services using AI increase in the future, such use cases may increase. From a development perspective, while there are official examples for such implementations on the server side, I found few implementation examples for receiving and displaying streaming data on the client side. Therefore, this time I considered an **implementation example using trpc + React (Next.js) to support OpenAI's streaming responses** which I personally expect. # Premise ### trpc > Move Fast and Break Nothing. End-to-end typesafe APIs made easy. Experience the full power of TypeScript inference to boost productivity for your full-stack application. https://trpc.io/ In short, **trpc is an RPC framework that allows you to reuse the request and response type definitions written on the server side with TypeScript on the client side**. For example, in REST API, there is no schema definition for requests and responses, so even if the request content from the client side is wrong or the response content from the server side is wrong, the process continues and unexpected errors may occur. While it is possible to define schemas by introducing tools like OpenAPI, you would need to introduce additional tools to check whether the actual requests and responses match those schema definitions. In GraphQL or gRPC, schema definitions are built into the specification, but since schema definitions are done in their own languages, there is a learning cost and effort required for that, and since you have to manage both the actual code and the schema, you need to consider both when making changes. (Of course, each has its own advantages, so they cannot be simply evaluated.) On the other hand, in trpc, the TypeScript type definitions written on the server side are directly reflected and reusable on the client side, so **you only need to know TypeScript, and there is no need to define separate schemas, making it easy to change** and develop with very high productivity. Although there is a premise that the server side must also be implemented in TypeScript, given that TypeScript is so widespread that it's almost indispensable in recent frontend development, I personally think it is a good choice to write the backend in TypeScript to match the frontend. Additionally, while it is often thought that libraries related to generative AI are only in Python, there are actually official supports for TypeScript in generative AI libraries like `openai-node`, `anthropic-sdk-typescript`, and `langchainjs`, which is another advantage of adopting TypeScript on the backend. # Deliverable An app was created where the response text is gradually displayed like ChatGPT after entering a prompt and clicking a button! ![Image description](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/ky5ekipgscw8nid3toj5.gif) # Implementation The app created this time can be checked on GitHub. https://github.com/mikan3rd/trpc-openai-stream-sample ## Create a base for the trpc app This time, we will create a base using `Next.js starter with Prisma`. ```bash pnpx create-next-app --example https://github.com/trpc/trpc --example-path examples/next-prisma-starter trpc-prisma-starter ``` ref: https://trpc.io/docs/example-apps ## Enable stream with openai-node on the server side There is an official library to handle OpenAI's API with TypeScript, so let's add it. https://github.com/openai/openai-node To receive results by passing a prompt like ChatGPT, use `openai.chat.completions.create()`. To enable streaming, just add `stream: true` as an argument. ```ts import OpenAI from 'openai'; // https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference/streaming const openai = new OpenAI({ apiKey: process.env.OPEN_AI_API_KEY, }); const stream = await openai.chat.completions.create({ model: 'gpt-3.5-turbo', messages: [ { role: 'user', content: text, }, ], stream: true, }); ``` Please note that in order to use the API, you need to issue an API KEY and set up payment in advance. ref: https://platform.openai.com/docs/quickstart/step-2-set-up-your-api-key ## Define an asynchronous generator function on the server side to control the stream In trpc, you can implement streaming responses by defining an asynchronous generator function with `async function*` and returning an AsyncGenerator object. If you want to save the final data to a DB or similar, you can refer to the `fullContent` part. ```ts let fullContent = ''; for await (const chunk of stream) { const targetIndex = 0; const target = chunk.choices[targetIndex]; const content = target?.delta?.content ?? ''; yield content; fullContent += content; } console.log({ fullContent }); ``` https://github.com/mikan3rd/trpc-openai-stream-sample/blob/431de4780d0c3f8f7494d8265f71cd686c0e55f0/src/server/functions/openai.ts In the router, just call the above asynchronous generator function with `yield*`. ```ts openai: publicProcedure .input( z.object({ text: z.string().min(1), }), ) .query(async function* ({ input }) { yield* chatLangChain({ modelType: 'openai', text: input.text }); ``` https://github.com/mikan3rd/trpc-openai-stream-sample/blob/707892551c509863dc7d5006b219a7696b729401/src/server/routers/_app.ts ref: https://trpc.io/docs/client/links/httpBatchStreamLink#generators For those who might not be familiar with generators, here is a reference article. (I had only used it in redux-saga.) https://zenn.dev/qnighy/articles/112af47edfda96 ## Replace with httpBatchStreamLink on the client side To receive the stream on the client side, use `unstable_httpBatchStreamLink` in the `links` argument of `createTRPCNext`. ```ts import { unstable_httpBatchStreamLink } from '@trpc/client'; unstable_httpBatchStreamLink({ url: `${getBaseUrl()}/api/trpc`, }) ``` https://github.com/mikan3rd/trpc-openai-stream-sample/blob/431de4780d0c3f8f7494d8265f71cd686c0e55f0/src/utils/trpc.ts ref: https://trpc.io/docs/client/links/httpBatchStreamLink#streaming-mode Though it is marked `unstable_`, it is safe to use in production, indicating only that there is a possibility of change. (`experimental_` would indicate insufficient testing.) https://trpc.io/docs/faq#unstable ## Display data on the client side As with usual data fetching methods, using `useQuery()`, data is reflected in the `data` of the return value as the API is called, so just render it. ```ts const [inputText, setInputText] = useState<string>( 'ChatGPT、Claude、LangChainについて簡潔に説明してください', ); const openai = trpc.examples.openai.useQuery( { text: inputText }, { enabled: false, placeholderData: keepPreviousData, }, ); const submitByQuery = async () => { await openai.refetch(); }; return ( <p className="py-4 break-all whitespace-pre-wrap"> {openai.data?.map((chunk, index) => ( <Fragment key={index}>{chunk}</Fragment> ))} </p> ); ``` https://github.com/mikan3rd/trpc-openai-stream-sample/blob/431de4780d0c3f8f7494d8265f71cd686c0e55f0/src/pages/index.tsx ref: https://trpc.io/docs/client/react/useQuery#streaming By the way, `@trpc/react-query` wraps `@tanstack/react-query`, and if you want to fetch data at an arbitrary timing, set `enabled: false` and call `refetch()`. Additionally, if variables (in this example, the `{ text: inputText }` part) are changed, `data` is reset, so if you want to retain `data` until refetching, specify `placeholderData: keepPreviousData`. ## That's all! With the trpc setup done, it was possible to implement a ChatGPT-like UI with simple and minimal code. Also, if you want to save data, you would use a mutation instead of a query. I tried implementing that as well, but `data` remained an AsyncGenerator object, so it needed to be handled with `for await` as shown below. ```ts const [text, setText] = useState<string>(''); const openai2 = trpc.examples.openai2.useMutation(); const submitByMutation = async () => { openai2.mutate( { text: inputText }, { onSuccess: async (data) => { setText(''); for await (const val of data) { setText((prev) => prev + val); } }, }, ); }; ``` https://github.com/mikan3rd/trpc-openai-stream-sample/blob/431de4780d0c3f8f7494d8265f71cd686c0e55f0/src/pages/index.tsx (Currently discussing if this can be fixed in the following issue) https://github.com/trpc/trpc/issues/5846 # Bonus Since it was an opportunity, I also implemented the same with Claude and LangChain. ## Claude I also supported Anthropic's Claude, which has been well-reviewed recently. Although the API specifications are slightly different, the implementation was almost similar. https://github.com/anthropics/anthropic-sdk-typescript ```ts import Anthropic from '@anthropic-ai/sdk'; // https://docs.anthropic.com/en/api/messages-streaming const anthropic = new Anthropic({ apiKey: process.env.ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, }); export const messageCreateStream = async function* (text: string) { const stream = await anthropic.messages.create({ max_tokens: 1024, messages: [{ role: 'user', content: text }], model: 'claude-3-haiku-20240307', stream: true, }); let fullContent = ''; for await (const messageStreamEvent of stream) { switch (messageStreamEvent.type) { case 'content_block_delta': switch (messageStreamEvent.delta.type) { case 'text_delta': const text = messageStreamEvent.delta.text; yield text; fullContent += text; break; default: break; } break; default: break; } } console.log({ fullContent }); }; ``` https://github.com/mikan3rd/trpc-openai-stream-sample/blob/431de4780d0c3f8f7494d8265f71cd686c0e55f0/src/server/functions/anthropicAI.ts In this case as well, issuing an API KEY and setting up payment in advance is necessary. ## LangChain By using LangChain, it was possible to call LLMs from OpenAI and Anthropic with more common code. It seems more convenient to use LangChain if you want to switch between or compare multiple LLMs. https://github.com/langchain-ai/langchainjs ```ts import { ChatOpenAI } from '@langchain/openai'; import { ChatAnthropic } from '@langchain/anthropic'; // https://js.langchain.com/v0.2/docs/how_to/streaming/ const chatOpenAI = new ChatOpenAI({ apiKey: process.env.OPEN_AI_API_KEY, model: 'gpt-3.5-turbo', }); const chatAnthropic = new ChatAnthropic({ apiKey: process.env.ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, model: 'claude-3-haiku-20240307', }); export const chatLangChain = async function* (args: { modelType: 'openai' | 'anthropic'; text: string; }) { const { modelType, text } = args; const model = (() => { switch (modelType) { case 'openai': return chatOpenAI; case 'anthropic': return chatAnthropic; default: // eslint-disable-next-line @typescript-eslint/restrict-template-expressions throw new Error(`Unknown modelType: ${modelType}`); } })(); const stream = await model.stream([['user', text]]); let fullContent = ''; for await (const chunk of stream) { const { content } = chunk; if (typeof content !== 'string') { console.log({ content }); throw new Error('Expected content to be a string'); } yield content; fullContent += content; } console.log({ fullContent }); }; ``` https://github.com/mikan3rd/trpc-openai-stream-sample/blob/431de4780d0c3f8f7494d8265f71cd686c0e55f0/src/server/functions/langchain.ts # Epilogue I hope trpc becomes more widespread.

## Into The Background… In any software development lifecycle, unique IDs play a major role in manipulating and showcasing data. A lot depends on the uniqueness of each data segment associated with user transactions. There are several ways to generate unique IDs, but when it comes to generating hashes at a rate of approximately <u>10,000 hashes per second</u> in a distributed fashion, it becomes a computational challenge. The Twitter Snowflake approach is a widely used concept in recent advancements in distributed algorithms. Several other approaches can be used for hash generation, which will be covered in a future article! ## Some Knowledge on Approach… To enable distributed hash generation, this algorithm employs the principle of “_divide and conquer_” on a 64-bit hash. The algorithm uses five different parameters to establish uniqueness while generating the hash and ensuring there are no collisions. ![Twitter Snowflake Hash template](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/un6jthuln2xzyqcquc0a.png) The five parameters are as follows: - **Timestamp (41 bits)**: This is the binary version of the total milliseconds from the difference between the current time and the default epoch set by the party developing this algorithm. (In our example, we have set it to Twitter’s default epoch, i.e., November 4, 2010, at 1:42:54 UTC.) - **Datacenter ID (5 bits)**: This is the binary version of the Datacenter ID, which can accommodate 2⁵ datacenters, totaling 32 data centers. - **Machine ID (5 bits)**: This is the binary version of the Machine ID, which can accommodate 2⁵ machines per datacenter, totaling 32 machines per datacenter. (Virtual addressing can be introduced to increase the count, but currently, the algorithm limits it to 32 machines.) - **Sequence Number (12 bits)**: This is the binary format of the sequence number, which counts the number of hashes generated by a machine/process within any millisecond. The sequence number resets to 0 after each millisecond. After each ID generation, the sequence number increments by one if the request is received within the same millisecond. - **Sign Bit (1-bit defaults to 0)**: The one extra bit in the system is reserved for any custom case while using this algorithm on a large scale. It can be used as parity, to distinguish between signed and unsigned numbers, to set flags, or for any future uses. Each machine in the system involved in generating hashes can run the following templates to generate a hash: ## Let’s Code… While writing the code for generating a hash, if you don’t have a distributed architecture or the resources to implement one, you can set the default bits of ‘Datacenter ID’ as ‘00000’ and ‘Machine ID’ as ‘00000’. This scenario is also reflected in the following code: ``` from datetime import datetime, timedelta class GenerateHash: def __init__(self): self.sequence_timestamp = datetime.utcnow() self.sequence_number = 0 # Setting default epoch to 04 November 2010 at 1:42:54 UTC Time self.time_ref = datetime(2010, 11, 4, 1, 42,54) def generate(self): ## Sign bit: Will be useful for future references sign_bit = '0' ## Datacenter bit (Default Datacenter: '00000') datacenter_bit = '0' * 5 ## Machine bit (Default Machine: '00000') mac_bit = '0' * 5 ## Timestamp bit # Getting Current Time in utc time_now = datetime.utcnow() # Time Difference since default epoch time_diff = time_now - self.time_ref # Total time_diff in miliseconds ms = int(time_diff.total_seconds() * 1000) # Miliseconds conversion in binary to 41 bits ms_bin = format(ms, '41b') timestamp_bit = ms_bin ## Sequence bit # Time difference since last request on this machine time_difference = time_now - self.sequence_timestamp # If time_difference > 1 ms: reset the sequence number if time_difference > timedelta(milliseconds=1): self.sequence_number = 0 # Set the sequence timestamp to current requests timestamp self.sequence_timestamp = time_now # Joining all strings # Also formatting self.sequence_number int -> binary of twelve bytes final_bin = sign_bit + timestamp_bit + datacenter_bit + mac_bit + format(self.sequence_number, '12b') # Replacing all spaces with zero as bit final_bin = final_bin.replace(' ', '0') # Incrementing the sequence_number self.sequence_number += 1 # Converting final binary to decimal and decimal to hex value hex_val = hex(int(final_bin, 2)) # Avoiding extracting string 0x.. generated due to hex() function final_hex = hex_val[2:] return final_hex hash_generator = GenerateHash() new_hash = hash_generator.generate() print(new_hash) ``` Here we have used the ‘<u>_datetime_</u>’ library to support time operations since we use universal time to employ machines/servers globally. ## The Benefits, Concerns, and more… **Benefits First :)** 1. We generate alphanumeric hashes in a distributed fashion ensuring consistency and scalability across our systems. 2. These hashes are timestamp-based, allowing us to track their creation time, sort them accordingly, and trace clicks on features, among other uses. 3. Not only can we control when these hashes are generated, but we can also customize how they are generated. This flexibility enables us to modify or update our hash generation methods as our systems evolve. 4. This algorithm supports the generation of at least 10,000 hashes per second. **Some Concerns :(** 1. The hash IDs are timestamp-based and include specific data center and machine IDs, which makes them vulnerable to the prediction of future generated IDs. 2. Due to the predefined guidelines for hash generation and the lengthy hash string, there is limited scope for customization. This constraint can restrict the algorithm’s utility and adaptability in various systems. **Something more to focus on…** - In our current algorithm, we do not have built-in support for clock synchronization in a multi-machine environment. We currently assume that our ID generation servers have synchronized clocks. However, the optimal and widely adopted solution would be to implement the Network Time Protocol (NTP), which we will cover in future articles. So stay tuned… <u>Thank you so much for getting this far!</u>

![Image description](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/0ny7rcapvdyopq660vk9.png) Introduction The rapid development of blockchain technology has brought revolutionary changes to the financial industry, and decentralized finance (DeFi) has become one of the important innovations. The BitPower Loop DeFi platform is a decentralized smart contract protocol based on the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), which aims to provide efficient, secure and transparent financial services. This article will explore the advantages of BitPower Loop DeFi and analyze its advantages in decentralization, smart contract security, profit mechanism and user experience. Advantages of decentralization 1. No intermediary intervention BitPower Loop DeFi relies entirely on smart contracts to operate, without centralized management agencies or intermediaries. All transactions and operations are automatically executed by smart contracts, eliminating the risk of human intervention. This decentralized mechanism ensures the transparency and fairness of the system, and all participants operate according to the same rules. 2. Transparency and openness All transaction records and smart contract codes are public and can be viewed by anyone on the blockchain. This transparency increases the credibility of the system, allowing users to participate with confidence because they can view and verify their transaction records and earnings at any time. Security of smart contracts 1. Immutability BitPower Loop DeFi's smart contracts cannot be changed once deployed. This immutability ensures the stability and reliability of the contract terms, and users do not need to worry about the rules being changed at will. 2. Automation and efficiency The automated execution of smart contracts eliminates human errors and delays and improves the efficiency of the system. For example, in BitPower Loop, users' earnings are automatically transferred to their wallets after maturity without manual operation. This automation not only improves efficiency but also reduces operating costs. 3. Secure asset collateral The BitPower Loop DeFi platform supports users to borrow and lend by providing collateral, and the smart contract automatically adjusts the interest rate and collateral value according to market conditions. This mechanism ensures the security of the lending process and reduces the risks of both borrowers and lenders. Advantages of the yield mechanism 1. High yield The yield offered by BitPower Loop is more attractive than traditional financial products. For example, users can get the following returns by providing liquidity on the platform: 1 day: 100.4% 7 days: 104% 14 days: 109.5% 28 days: 124% This high rate of return has attracted a large number of users to participate, injecting sufficient liquidity into the platform. 2. Compound interest mechanism BitPower Loop also provides a compound interest mechanism, and users can obtain higher annualized returns by continuously reinvesting. For example: 1 day: 429% 7 days: 773% 14 days: 1065% 28 days: 1638% This compound interest mechanism significantly increases users' long-term returns, further enhancing the attractiveness of the platform. 3. Referral rewards BitPower Loop has designed a complete referral reward mechanism, and users can get additional benefits by inviting friends to join the platform. The specific reward structure is as follows: First-generation friends: 20% Second-generation friends: 10% Third to seventh-generation friends: 5% Eighth to tenth-generation friends: 3% Eleventh to seventeenth-generation friends: 1% This multi-level referral reward mechanism encourages users to actively promote the platform and help the platform quickly expand its user base. Advantages of user experience 1. Simple and easy to use BitPower Loop's platform interface design is simple and intuitive, and the operation process is simple and clear. Whether it is a novice or an experienced user, you can easily get started and quickly complete operations such as lending and liquidity provision. 2. Global services BitPower Loop DeFi platform supports global user participation, and users do not need to worry about geographical restrictions. The platform's smart contracts are completely decentralized, and users anywhere in the world can fairly participate and enjoy the financial services provided by the platform. 3. Zero handling fees BitPower Loop does not charge any platform commissions or additional fees, and all participants can use the platform's services for free. This zero-handling fee design further reduces the user's participation cost and increases user stickiness. Conclusion As an innovative decentralized financial platform, BitPower Loop DeFi has significant advantages in decentralization, smart contract security, profit mechanism and user experience. By eliminating intermediaries, providing high transparency and security, designing high-yield and compound interest mechanisms, and optimizing user experience, BitPower Loop provides users with an efficient, secure and attractive financial service platform. In the future, with the continuous development and popularization of blockchain technology, BitPower Loop DeFi is expected to attract more users worldwide and promote the development of decentralized finance.

![Image description](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/7sjwbi6f5zy0zry79zta.png) Do you know why smartphones have become so popular in such a short time? Smartphones can do various things, including sending emails, watching films, and using social networks. They are becoming more popular as they make daily tasks easier. The popularity of smartphones in recent years has increased demand for mobile apps. This is because there is need to define the required nature of the mobile apps based on the needs of the customers as well as the business goals. So it is necessary to develop hybrid mobile applications as both native and web-based applications have their own advantages. Their ability to transition through different stages is directly related to their ability to perform consistently across multiple stages. Hybrid app development aims to create a single application that performs consistently across various stages. According to Forbes, 37 of America's top 50 retail apps are hybrids. Furthermore, popular platforms like Twitter, Instagram, Gmail, Uber, etc., use hybrid apps. Most businesses and individuals choose hybrid mobile and Web Design Milwaukee for a variety of reasons other than the fact that it is a new technology. The main reasons for hybrid app development are listed below. ## **Top 10 Reasons Why Businesses with Hybrid Web Apps are more successful in 2024:** Hybrid app development benefits businesses, particularly start-ups, by enabling them to simultaneously enter the mobile market on all major platforms. ![Image description](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/yuowjcw3852i1qmzm02f.png) Here are the Top Reasons Why Businesses with Hybrid Web Apps Will Be More Successful in 2024. **1. Cost-Effectiveness:** Developing and maintaining web application examples can be less expensive than traditional desktop applications. The unified development approach for web applications eliminates the need for separate versions for different operating systems. Furthermore, the cloud-based nature of web apps may result in cost savings for IT infrastructure. **2. Wider audience:** Native or web applications rely on a single platform, which results in a significant loss of profitable user share to other operating systems. In today's competitive environment, targeting a single audience results in stunted growth. Hybrid app development can help in such cases. The overall market share is 99 percent, with Android accounting for 73 percent and iOS accounting for 26 percent. Going hybrid means reaching a wider audience. **3. Best Offline Support:** Hybrid apps are best for users with limited data plans and poor internet connections. Some hybrid apps employ offline support in a few areas, enabling users to continue using the application even when his or her internet connection is unavailable. End users can also store data offline in hybrid apps using the device's APIs. **4. Better UI/UX:** Several tools are available to enhance the user interface and interactions within the development of hybrid applications. On the other hand, hybrid apps perform better and faster, improving the user experience. They can function successfully and efficiently across multiple platforms because they share the same features and code. **5. Less time to market:** Hybrid app development allows Web Design Milwaukee companies to write application code using their existing development tools. They do not need to look for new technologies or hire developers knowledgeable about platform-specific technologies to build their applications. In addition, you can reuse the same code for multiple platforms, eliminating the need to create a new codebase for each one. This saves significant time and shortens the time required to deploy the app. ![Image description](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/ih6r54l7jd9300q8jepx.png) **6. Cross-platform compatibility:** Cross-platform compatibility is one of the most important benefits of creating a hybrid app. The developers must write code once and run it across multiple platforms. Hybrid apps unlike native apps are not restricted to any particular operating system or gadget. This makes them ideal for businesses that don't want to spend time and money to build separate apps for each platform. **7. Faster Development:** Hybrid mobile apps are easier and faster to develop than native apps. They allow businesses to use their existing web design talent pool to dominate the mobile market. Knowledge of JavaScript and HTML is required. Once the code is written, the application can run in either environment (Specifically, iOS and Android). **8. Easy Integration:** The reason for hybrid apps is that you do not have to look for other specific libraries of SDKs, APIs, and other related instruments. The same SDK and API libraries are sufficient for creating hybrid applications. Apps designed for one platform cannot be installed on another; however, apps intended for hybrid platforms overcome this limitation through simple integration and cross-platform functionality. **9. Easy scalability:** This brings another important issue in mobile application development which is scalability. A scalable app provides more flexibility, reliability, security, and the ability to add new functionality and features. Hybrid mobile app development allows for easy scalability because developers do not need to make significant changes to scale up the app across platforms. They can make one change to the code, which will be effective across all platforms. **10. Easier Maintenance and Updates:** Because web application examples are hosted on servers, updates can be distributed to all users simultaneously without requiring them to download and install them individually. It also makes certain that all the users are able to utilize the advanced elements. As a result, Web Design Milwaukee companies can expect lower support costs and a lighter load on IT departments. **## Conclusion:** So, when choosing the best app for business, consider the advantages and disadvantages of native, hybrid, and web applications. Each application you select has advantages and much to offer for expanding your business. Select an application based on your target audience rather than your competitor's success. The choice of a mobile app is based on user expectations and business needs. A hybrid app is a great option unless you're creating a game application because it's affordable and compatible with multiple platforms.

![Image description](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/hgr07gsfecfv8zuq1qo7.png) Introduction The rapid development of blockchain technology has brought revolutionary changes to the financial industry, and decentralized finance (DeFi) has become one of the important innovations. The BitPower Loop DeFi platform is a decentralized smart contract protocol based on the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), which aims to provide efficient, secure and transparent financial services. This article will explore the advantages of BitPower Loop DeFi and analyze its advantages in decentralization, smart contract security, profit mechanism and user experience. Advantages of decentralization 1. No intermediary intervention BitPower Loop DeFi relies entirely on smart contracts to operate, without centralized management agencies or intermediaries. All transactions and operations are automatically executed by smart contracts, eliminating the risk of human intervention. This decentralized mechanism ensures the transparency and fairness of the system, and all participants operate according to the same rules. 2. Transparency and openness All transaction records and smart contract codes are public and can be viewed by anyone on the blockchain. This transparency increases the credibility of the system, allowing users to participate with confidence because they can view and verify their transaction records and earnings at any time. Security of smart contracts 1. Immutability BitPower Loop DeFi's smart contracts cannot be changed once deployed. This immutability ensures the stability and reliability of the contract terms, and users do not need to worry about the rules being changed at will. 2. Automation and efficiency The automated execution of smart contracts eliminates human errors and delays and improves the efficiency of the system. For example, in BitPower Loop, users' earnings are automatically transferred to their wallets after maturity without manual operation. This automation not only improves efficiency but also reduces operating costs. 3. Secure asset collateral The BitPower Loop DeFi platform supports users to borrow and lend by providing collateral, and the smart contract automatically adjusts the interest rate and collateral value according to market conditions. This mechanism ensures the security of the lending process and reduces the risks of both borrowers and lenders. Advantages of the yield mechanism 1. High yield The yield offered by BitPower Loop is more attractive than traditional financial products. For example, users can get the following returns by providing liquidity on the platform: 1 day: 100.4% 7 days: 104% 14 days: 109.5% 28 days: 124% This high rate of return has attracted a large number of users to participate, injecting sufficient liquidity into the platform. 2. Compound interest mechanism BitPower Loop also provides a compound interest mechanism, and users can obtain higher annualized returns by continuously reinvesting. For example: 1 day: 429% 7 days: 773% 14 days: 1065% 28 days: 1638% This compound interest mechanism significantly increases users' long-term returns, further enhancing the attractiveness of the platform. 3. Referral rewards BitPower Loop has designed a complete referral reward mechanism, and users can get additional benefits by inviting friends to join the platform. The specific reward structure is as follows: First-generation friends: 20% Second-generation friends: 10% Third to seventh-generation friends: 5% Eighth to tenth-generation friends: 3% Eleventh to seventeenth-generation friends: 1% This multi-level referral reward mechanism encourages users to actively promote the platform and help the platform quickly expand its user base. Advantages of user experience 1. Simple and easy to use BitPower Loop's platform interface design is simple and intuitive, and the operation process is simple and clear. Whether it is a novice or an experienced user, you can easily get started and quickly complete operations such as lending and liquidity provision. 2. Global services BitPower Loop DeFi platform supports global user participation, and users do not need to worry about geographical restrictions. The platform's smart contracts are completely decentralized, and users anywhere in the world can fairly participate and enjoy the financial services provided by the platform. 3. Zero handling fees BitPower Loop does not charge any platform commissions or additional fees, and all participants can use the platform's services for free. This zero-handling fee design further reduces the user's participation cost and increases user stickiness. Conclusion As an innovative decentralized financial platform, BitPower Loop DeFi has significant advantages in decentralization, smart contract security, profit mechanism and user experience. By eliminating intermediaries, providing high transparency and security, designing high-yield and compound interest mechanisms, and optimizing user experience, BitPower Loop provides users with an efficient, secure and attractive financial service platform. In the future, with the continuous development and popularization of blockchain technology, BitPower Loop DeFi is expected to attract more users worldwide and promote the development of decentralized finance.

## Introduction When working with Django's ORM, one of the fundamental aspects you'll encounter is the laziness of QuerySets. This characteristic significantly impacts how you write and optimize your code. But what does it mean to say that "Django QuerySets are lazy"? Let's explore this concept, and understand the implications it has on our code. #### Laziness of QuerySets In Django, a QuerySet represents a collection of database queries, but it doesn't actually hit the database until the results are needed. This is what laziness refers to: the QuerySet is created, but no database query is executed until you "evaluate" the QuerySet. QuerySets are evaluated only when you: - Iterate over them - Convert them to a list - Slicing - Pickle or cache them - Call methods that require database access, such as `.exists()`, `.first()`, or `.count()` ### Practical Example: Validating Emails in a Form Let's consider an example where you need to validate an email field in a Django form. You're tasked with checking if an email address is blacklisted. Here are two ways to achieve this: ```python def clean_email(self): email = self.cleaned_data['email'] blacklisted_users = User.objects.filter(email__iexact=email) user = blacklisted_users.filter(is_blacklisted=True).first() if user: raise forms.ValidationError( _('This email address is blacklisted.') ) return email ``` ```python def clean_email(self): email = self.cleaned_data['email'] if User.objects.filter(email__iexact=email, is_blacklisted=True).exists(): raise forms.ValidationError( _('This email address is blacklisted.') ) return email ``` ### Analyzing the Two Approaches At first glance, these methods seem quite similar, but understanding how Django QuerySets work will highlight why the second one is more efficient. #### Approach 1: Chained QuerySets In this approach, two separate queries are constructed: 1. `blacklisted_users = User.objects.filter(email__iexact=email)` 2. `user = blacklisted_users.filter(is_blacklisted=True).first()` When `if user:` is evaluated, only then does the second query hit the database. Despite being chained, each call essentially constructs a new QuerySet. #### Approach 2: Single Query The second approach directly chains the filters in one QuerySet: 1. `User.objects.filter(email__iexact=email, is_blacklisted=True).exists()` Here, the database query is executed only when `.exists()` is called, making it more efficient. This approach consolidates the query, resulting in only one hit to the database. ### Importance of Lazy Evaluation Both examples illustrate Django's lazy evaluation of QuerySets. The queries are not executed until they are absolutely needed: - When `if user:` is evaluated in the first approach - When `exists()` is called in the second approach ### Efficiency Comparison Even though the first approach appears to split the filtering process into two steps, Django's lazy evaluation sees no difference. The query is executed only when the final result is needed. However, the second approach is more concise and potentially more optimized due to: - Fewer lines of code - Only one database call, which is often more efficient ### Conclusion Django's lazy QuerySets enable deferred execution, allowing you to chain operations without immediate database hits. While the first approach segments the query into steps, the second approach is preferable for its clarity and efficiency. Understanding and taking advantage of lazy evaluation can lead to more efficient and readable code. By grasping this concept, you can write more optimized Django applications, reducing unnecessary database queries and improving overall performance.

Security Research of BitPower Loop BitPower Loop is a decentralized lending platform based on blockchain technology, dedicated to providing users with safe, transparent and efficient financial services. Its core security comes from multi-level technical measures and mechanism design, which ensures the robust operation of the system and the security of user funds. This article will introduce the security of BitPower Loop in detail from five aspects: smart contract security, decentralized management, data and transaction security, fund security and risk control mechanism. 1. Smart Contract Security Smart contracts are the core components of BitPower Loop, and their codes must undergo strict security audits before deployment. These audits are usually conducted by third-party independent security companies to ensure that there are no vulnerabilities or malicious code in the contract. In addition, the immutability of smart contracts means that once deployed, no one (including the development team) can modify its rules and logic, which fundamentally eliminates the possibility of malicious operations. All operations are automatically executed by smart contracts, avoiding the risk of human intervention and ensuring the fairness and consistency of system operation. 2. Decentralized Management BitPower Loop eliminates the risks brought by single point failures and central control through decentralized management. The system has no central management agency or owner, and all transactions and operations are jointly verified and recorded by blockchain nodes distributed around the world. This decentralized structure not only improves the system's anti-attack capabilities, but also enhances transparency. Users can publicly view all transaction records, which increases trust in the system. 3. Data and transaction security BitPower Loop uses advanced encryption technology to protect users' data and transaction information. All data is encrypted during transmission and storage to prevent unauthorized access and data leakage. The consensus mechanism of the blockchain ensures the validity and immutability of each transaction, eliminating the possibility of double payment and forged transactions. In addition, the automated execution of smart contracts also avoids delays and errors caused by human operations, ensuring the real-time and accuracy of transactions. 4. Fund security The secure storage of user funds is an important feature of BitPower Loop. Funds are stored on the blockchain through smart contracts and maintained by nodes across the entire network. Distributed storage avoids the risk of fund theft caused by centralized storage. In addition, the user's investment returns and shared commissions are automatically allocated to the user's wallet address by the smart contract after the conditions are met, ensuring the timely and accurate arrival of funds. 5. Risk Control Mechanism BitPower Loop effectively manages lending risks by setting collateral factors and liquidation mechanisms. The collateral factors are independently set according to market liquidity and asset value fluctuations to ensure system stability and lending security. When the value of the borrower's assets falls below a certain threshold, the liquidation mechanism is automatically triggered, ensuring the repayment of the borrower's debt and protecting the interests of the fund provider. In addition, the immutability and automatic execution characteristics of smart contracts further enhance the security and reliability of the system. Conclusion BitPower Loop achieves high security and stability through multi-level security measures and mechanism design. Its smart contracts are strictly audited and immutable, decentralized management eliminates single point failure risks, advanced encryption technology protects data and transaction security, distributed storage ensures fund security, and risk control mechanisms manage lending risks. These security features together build a reliable decentralized financial platform that provides users with secure, transparent and efficient financial services.

Instead, organic farmers rely on natural methods to control pests and diseases, and use compost and other natural amendments to improve soil fertility. Here are some key principles and practices of organic farming: 1. **Soil conservation**: Organic farmers focus on building healthy soil through the use of crop rotations, cover crops, and organic amendments like compost. 2. **Crop rotation**: Rotating crops helps to break disease cycles, improves soil structure, and increases biodiversity. 3. **Composting**: Composting is a key process in organic farming that turns waste into nutrient-rich fertilizer. 4. **Manure management**: Organic farmers use animal manure as a natural fertilizer and to improve soil health. 5. **Integrated pest management (IPM)**: Instead of relying on pesticides, organic farmers use IPM techniques like crop rotation, biological control, and cultural controls to manage pests. 6. **Cover cropping**: Planting cover crops in the off-season helps to prevent erosion, adds nutrients to the soil, and provides habitat for beneficial insects. 7. **Biodiversity conservation**: Organic farming aims to conserve biodiversity by promoting ecosystem services and supporting beneficial insects and microorganisms. 8. **Minimum tillage or no-till**: Reducing soil disturbance helps to preserve soil structure, reduce erosion, and promote soil biota. 9. **Organic amendments**: Using natural amendments like compost, manure, or green manure instead of synthetic fertilizers. 10. **Record keeping**: Organic farmers keep detailed records of their farming practices, including crop rotations, pest management, and soil health. Some specific techniques used in organic farming include: 1. **Biodynamic agriculture**: A holistic approach that considers the moon's cycles and uses natural preparations to promote soil fertility and plant growth. 2. **Permaculture**: A design system that aims to create self-sustaining ecosystems by mimicking nature's patterns and relationships. 3. **Agroforestry**: Integrating trees into agricultural landscapes to improve soil health, reduce erosion, and increase biodiversity. 4. **Green manure**: Planting legumes or other cover crops to fix nitrogen in the soil and add organic matter. 5. **Crop rotation with legumes**: Incorporating legume crops like beans or peas into crop rotations to improve soil fertility. To get started with organic farming, you can: 1. **Research local regulations**: Familiarize yourself with national and regional laws regarding organic farming practices and certifications. 2. **Start small**: Begin by converting a small portion of your land to organic methods and gradually scale up as you gain experience. 3. **Join an organic farm network**: Connect with other organic farmers, attend workshops, and share knowledge to learn from their experiences. 4. **Develop a business plan**: Create a plan for marketing and selling your organic products, including pricing and target markets. 5. **Monitor and adjust**: Continuously monitor your soil health, crop yields, and pest management strategies, and make adjustments as needed. Remember that transitioning to organic farming takes time, patience, and dedication. Start by making small changes and gradually build up your knowledge and skills.Response: ---------------------------------------------------- llama3:latest Prompt eval: 13.14 t/s Response: 6.23 t/s Total: 6.31 t/s Stats: Prompt tokens: 16 Response tokens: 654 Model load time: 2.06s Prompt eval time: 1.22s Response time: 105.04s Total time: 108.32s ---------------------------------------------------- Benchmarking: gemma:latest Prompt: how to do organic farming ``` **Function Calling - Llama web search agent breakdown** Larger models like GPT4, Claude anthorpics are fine tune to be able to perform function calling and can attach tools like online search and decide they need to use the tools or not and execute the tools.

Elon Musk has announced that Tesla will launch new EVs in 2025, including affordable ones, which will blend current and next-generation platforms. The company has set a goal to start production of a new mass-market electric vehicle codenamed "Redwood" in mid-2025. Tesla has produced its 20 millionth 4680 cell at Gigafactory Texas, a key step for its new vehicle programs. The 4680 cell is designed to reduce battery cost by over 50% and has a capacity of about 100 Wh. Tesla reported first-quarter adjusted earnings per share of $0.45, below the estimated $0.52, on revenue of $21.30 billion, which missed forecasts for $22.3 billion. The company set a new delivery record for the fourth quarter and met its 2023 delivery target, shaking off a third-quarter miss and assuaging investors concerned with any hiccups as it prepares to launch new products. Tesla has issued two recalls on the Cybertruck, its third and fourth since the model was introduced late last year. The latest recall affects almost all of the nearly 12,000 trucks on the road. The company is currently testing approximately 35 trucks for its long-range Semi, which will have a range of up to 500 miles. Tesla's stock rose as much as 4.5% on Tuesday after the company delivered a record number of vehicles in the three months to the end of June. Overall, it seems that Tesla is preparing to launch new products and expand its offerings, including affordable electric cars and long-range Semi trucks. The company has also faced some challenges, including recalls and missed earnings estimates, but has managed to set new delivery records and meet its 2023 delivery target. ``` # Test it out! run_agent("How are you doing today?") ``` Step: Routing Query Step: Routing Query to Generation Step: Generating Final Response I'm just an AI, I don't have feelings or emotions like humans do.

Correlation evaluates the degree and direction of a linear relationship between two variables, with values ranging from -1 (perfect negative) to +1 (perfect positive). It is assessed using a correlation coefficient. Regression, especially linear regression, is the process of modelling the connection between a dependent variable and one or more independent variables. It presents an equation (y = mx + b) that predicts the dependent variable based on the independent variables. Correlation suggests relationship, whereas regression implies causality and anticipates results. Correlation assesses relationships, whereas regression allows for prediction and causal conclusions.

![Image description](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/bshmanuku8mtbu24nxgh.png) Introduction The Token Bucket algorithm is a popular mechanism used for network traffic shaping and rate limiting. It controls the amount of data transmitted over a network, ensuring that traffic conforms to specified rates and preventing congestion. This article provides an in-depth look at the Token Bucket algorithm, its working principles, use cases, and implementation details. What is the Token Bucket Algorithm? The [Token Bucket](https://keploy.io/blog/community/create-api-rate-limiting-with-token-bucket) algorithm is a method for regulating data flow in a network. It controls the rate at which data packets are sent by using tokens, which represent the permission to send a certain amount of data. Tokens are added to the bucket at a fixed rate, and to send a packet, the bucket must have a sufficient number of tokens. This allows for bursty traffic patterns while maintaining an average rate over time. How the Token Bucket Algorithm Works 1. Tokens and the Bucket: The bucket has a fixed capacity and holds tokens. Tokens are generated and added to the bucket at a constant rate, typically one token per unit of time. 2. Sending Packets: Each data packet requires a certain number of tokens to be sent. If the bucket has enough tokens, the packet is sent, and the corresponding tokens are removed from the bucket. If there aren't enough tokens, the packet is either queued until tokens are available or dropped, depending on the implementation. 3. Token Accumulation: If tokens are not used immediately, they accumulate in the bucket up to its maximum capacity, allowing for bursty traffic. Once the bucket is full, any additional tokens are discarded until some tokens are consumed. 4. Regulating Rate: By controlling the rate at which tokens are added and the maximum bucket capacity, the algorithm regulates the average data transmission rate and allows for short-term bursts. Key Parameters of the Token Bucket Algorithm 1. Token Generation Rate (r): The rate at which tokens are added to the bucket, typically measured in tokens per second. 2. Bucket Capacity (b): The maximum number of tokens the bucket can hold, determining the size of the burst that can be accommodated. 3. Packet Size: The number of tokens required to send a packet. This can be fixed or variable depending on the packet size. Advantages of the Token Bucket Algorithm 1. Flexibility: Supports both average rate control and bursty traffic, making it suitable for various applications. 2. Simplicity: Easy to implement and understand, with straightforward parameters. 3. Efficiency: Provides effective rate limiting with minimal overhead. Use Cases of the Token Bucket Algorithm 1. Network Traffic Shaping: Controls the flow of data to prevent congestion and ensure smooth network performance. 2. Rate Limiting: Limits the rate of API requests, preventing abuse and ensuring fair usage. 3. Quality of Service (QoS): Guarantees a certain level of service by regulating traffic rates and prioritizing certain types of traffic. 4. Bandwidth Management: Allocates bandwidth to different users or applications based on predefined rates. Implementing the Token Bucket Algorithm Pseudocode Example Here's a simple pseudocode example illustrating the Token Bucket algorithm: pseudo Copy code initialize bucket with capacity b and rate r current_tokens = b last_checked_time = current_time() function send_packet(packet_size): current_time = current_time() time_passed = current_time - last_checked_time tokens_to_add = time_passed * r current_tokens = min(b, current_tokens + tokens_to_add) last_checked_time = current_time if current_tokens >= packet_size: current_tokens -= packet_size send(packet) return True else: return False Python Implementation Here's a Python implementation of the Token Bucket algorithm: python Copy code import time class TokenBucket: def __init__(self, rate, capacity): self.rate = rate self.capacity = capacity self.tokens = capacity self.last_checked = time.time() def get_tokens(self): now = time.time() time_passed = now - self.last_checked self.tokens += time_passed * self.rate if self.tokens > self.capacity: self.tokens = self.capacity self.last_checked = now def consume(self, tokens): self.get_tokens() if self.tokens >= tokens: self.tokens -= tokens return True return False # Example usage bucket = TokenBucket(rate=1, capacity=10) def send_packet(packet_size): if bucket.consume(packet_size): print("Packet sent") else: print("Packet dropped") # Simulate sending packets send_packet(5) time.sleep(1) send_packet(5) time.sleep(1) send_packet(10) Conclusion The Token Bucket algorithm is a powerful tool for managing network traffic and enforcing rate limits. By allowing for controlled bursts and maintaining an average transmission rate, it provides a flexible and efficient way to regulate data flow. Understanding and implementing this algorithm can significantly enhance the performance and reliability of networked applications and services.

Introduction: Streamlining the process of creating and managing multiples users account in an organization where quite a number of developers have been recently onboarded can be very challenging for a SysOps engineer. Automating these tasks not only saves time but also ensures consistency and accuracy. This article will guide you through a Bash script that automates the process of creating users and groups on a Linux system. We will create a script that creates users and groups, sets passwords, and manages permissions. The script and article are part of the HNG Internship task, and you can learn more about the program by visiting the following links (https://hng.tech/internship) and (https://hng.tech/premium) Script Breakdown Prerequisites Ensure that your system is authorized to create users, groups, and make changes to system files. To successfully run the script, you must have sudo access. Script Overview: # Set the log file and password file ``` LOG_FILE=/var/log/user_management.log PASSWORD_FILE=/var/secure/user_passwords.txt ``` The script starts with a shebang (#!/bin/bash), indicating that it should be run in the Bash shell. It then sets the paths for the log file and the password file. These files will store logs of user creation actions and the generated passwords, respectively. # Function to Create a User and Group ``` create_user() { username=$1 groups=$2 # Create the user group groupadd ${username} # Create the user and set the password useradd -m -g ${username} -G ${groups} ${username} password=$(generate_password) echo "${username}:${password}" | chpasswd # Set ownership and permissions for the home directory chown ${username}:${username} /home/${username} chmod 700 /home/${username} # Log the action echo "Created user ${username} with groups ${groups}" >> ${LOG_FILE} } ``` The create_user function takes two arguments: the username and the groups the user should belong to. It performs the following actions: Creates a user-specific group with groupadd. Creates the user with useradd, assigns the user to their own group, and any additional groups. Generates a random password using the generate_password function and sets it for the user with chpasswd. Sets the ownership and permissions of the user's home directory. Logs the creation action to the specified log file. # Function to Generate a Random Password ``` generate_password() { < /dev/urandom tr -dc _A-Z-a-z-0-9 | head -c${1:-32}; echo } ``` The generate_password function uses /dev/urandom to generate a stream of random characters, filters them to include only alphanumeric characters, and then extracts a password of a specified length (default is 32 characters). # Reading the Input File ``` while IFS=';' read -r username groups; do # Ignore whitespace username=$(echo ${username} | tr -d '[:space:]') groups=$(echo ${groups} | tr -d '[:space:]') ``` # Create the user and group ``` create_user ${username} ${groups} done < "$1" ``` This section reads the input file line by line, splitting each line into the username and groups based on the semicolon (;) delimiter. It removes any whitespace from the username and groups, then calls the create_user function to create the user and their groups. # Writing Passwords to the Password File ``` echo "Username,Password" > ${PASSWORD_FILE} for user in $(cut -d: -f1 ${PASSWORD_FILE}); do password=$(grep ${user} ${PASSWORD_FILE} | cut -d: -f2) echo "${user},${password}" >> ${PASSWORD_FILE} ``` done This part initializes the password file with a header (Username,Password), then iterates through each user, extracts their password from the log file, and writes it to the password file. # Setting Permissions for the Password File ``` chmod 600 ${PASSWORD_FILE} ``` Finally, the script sets the permissions of the password file to 600, ensuring that only the file owner (root) can read it. Usage: To use this script, create a text file (users.txt) containing usernames and their respective groups in the format user;group1,group2,.... For example: Lily_Johnson;hr,management David_williams;sales,marketing Grace_Paterson;it,developers Run the script with the text file as an argument: sudo bash create_users.sh users.txt # Conclusion This script automates the creation of users and groups, sets up home directories with appropriate permissions, generates random passwords, and logs all actions. By using this script, system administrators can efficiently manage user accounts, ensuring consistency and security. By automating user management tasks, administrators can focus on more critical aspects of their work, improving overall system efficiency and security. This script serves as a robust foundation for further customization and integration into larger automation workflows.

<h3><strong>Appreciating vs Depreciating Assets: A Key Distinction in Financial Planning</strong></h3> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In the realm of financial planning and investment, distinguishing between appreciating and depreciating assets is crucial for maximizing returns and minimizing risks. </span><strong>Appreciating assets</strong><span style="font-weight: 400;"> are those that typically increase in value over time, such as real estate in growing markets, stocks of successful companies, or collectibles with high demand. These assets tend to yield positive returns and can enhance your net worth over the long term.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">On the other hand, </span><strong>depreciating assets</strong><span style="font-weight: 400;"> are prone to lose value over time or with use. Examples include vehicles, certain types of machinery, or technology that becomes obsolete quickly. While depreciating assets may provide immediate utility or enjoyment, they generally do not appreciate in value and can lead to financial losses if not managed carefully.</span></p> <h3><strong>The Dynamics of Appreciating vs Depreciating Assets</strong></h3> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Investors often prioritize appreciating assets due to their potential for capital growth. Real estate, for instance, can appreciate significantly in booming markets or desirable locations, offering both rental income and appreciation in property value. Stocks of established companies with strong earnings growth and dividends also fall under appreciating assets, providing investors with income and potential capital gains.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Conversely, depreciating assets require careful consideration in financial planning. While they may serve essential purposes, such as transportation or operational needs in businesses, their value tends to decline over time. Managing depreciating assets involves assessing their useful life, maintenance costs, and potential resale value, if any, to minimize financial losses.</span></p> <h3><strong>Conclusion</strong></h3> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In conclusion, understanding the distinction between appreciating and depreciating assets is fundamental to making informed financial decisions. </span><a href="https://www.thefreefinancialadvisor.com/appreciating-vs-depreciating-assets/"><strong>Appreciating vs Depreciating Assets</strong></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> can significantly impact your wealth accumulation strategies and risk management approaches. By prioritizing appreciating assets in your portfolio and managing depreciating assets wisely, you can enhance your financial stability and long-term growth potential.</span></p>

https://dev.to/hyscaler/whatsapps-ai-selfie-generator-a-new-frontier-in-self-expression-or-a-superficial-gimmick-bdb
Meta's WhatsApp is on the cusp of a significant transformation with the introduction of its AI-powered "Imagine Me" feature. This tool promises to redefine profile pictures by enabling users to create fantastical avatars based on their selfies. By harnessing the power of AI, users can effortlessly generate a multitude of creative self-portraits, placing themselves in diverse settings and adopting different personas. ## How Does WhatsApp's AI Selfie Generator Work? The process is remarkably simple. Users begin by uploading a selfie or a collection of selfies to the platform. Next, they input a text prompt starting with "Imagine me..." followed by their desired setting or persona. The AI then works its magic, producing a series of AI-generated images that seamlessly integrate the user's face into various environments and contexts. This innovative approach, reminiscent of Snapchat's "Dreams" feature, has the potential to captivate WhatsApp's billions of users, offering a vast playground for creativity and self-expression. ## Meta's Broader AI Ambitions Meta's strategic investment in AI technology extends beyond the "Imagine Me" feature. The company has integrated AI chatbots across its platforms, including Facebook, Instagram, Messenger, and WhatsApp, aiming to enhance user experiences. Additionally, Meta is exploring the creation of AI avatars, blurring the lines between human and artificial identities. While these developments showcase Meta's commitment to AI innovation, they also raise questions about their long-term value and impact on user engagement. ## The Search for Meaningful AI Applications The true potential of AI in social media lies in its ability to address real-world challenges and enhance user experiences beyond novelty. While AI-powered selfies and avatars are undoubtedly captivating, their long-term impact remains uncertain. To truly harness the power of AI, Meta must prioritize features that deliver tangible benefits, foster meaningful connections, and enrich the overall social media experience. As Meta continues to invest heavily in AI research, it's crucial to strike a balance between innovation and practicality. By focusing on AI applications that address user needs and solve real-world problems, Meta can position itself as a leader in the AI-driven social media landscape. ## The Future of AI and Personal Identity WhatsApp's AI Selfie Generator represents a significant step forward in AI-powered self-expression. However, its impact on personal identity and online interactions is a complex issue. As AI technology advances, it raises questions about authenticity, privacy, and the potential for manipulation. The ability to create AI-generated avatars could lead to a proliferation of deepfakes and misinformation, highlighting the need for robust safeguards and ethical guidelines. Moreover, the reliance on AI-generated images could erode the authenticity of online interactions, making it increasingly difficult to distinguish between real and artificial content. ## Implications for Social Media and Beyond The integration of AI into social media platforms has far-reaching implications beyond self-expression. AI-powered tools can be used to personalize content recommendations, improve user engagement, and even facilitate e-commerce. However, these advancements also raise concerns about data privacy, algorithmic bias, and the potential for social manipulation. As AI technology continues to evolve, it's essential to develop ethical frameworks and regulations to ensure its responsible and beneficial use. By striking a balance between innovation and human values, we can harness the power of AI to create a more inclusive, equitable, and informed digital society.

javascript, frontend, coding, webdev
As a developer, writing clean, predictable, and maintainable code is crucial. One way to achieve this is by using `let` and `const` instead of `var` in your JavaScript projects. Here’s why: #### 1. Block Scope One of the primary advantages of `let` and `const` over `var` is their block-scoped nature. - **`var`**: Function-scoped, meaning it is accessible within the entire function or globally if declared outside any function. This can lead to unexpected behavior, as variables declared with `var` are accessible outside the block they are declared in (e.g., inside loops or conditionals). - **`let` and `const`**: Block-scoped, meaning they are only accessible within the block they are declared in (e.g., within a loop, if statement, etc.). This reduces the risk of variable collisions and unintended behavior. ```javascript if (true) { var x = 10; } console.log(x); // 10 if (true) { let y = 10; } console.log(y); // ReferenceError: y is not defined ``` #### 2. Reassignment and Constants - **`var`**: Allows for variable re-declaration and reassignment, which can lead to bugs and harder-to-read code. - **`let`**: Allows reassignment but does not allow re-declaration within the same scope. - **`const`**: Does not allow reassignment or re-declaration within the same scope, making it clear that the variable is a constant value. ```javascript var a = 1; var a = 2; // Valid but can be confusing let b = 1; // let b = 2; // SyntaxError: Identifier 'b' has already been declared b = 2; // Valid const c = 1; // const c = 2; // SyntaxError: Identifier 'c' has already been declared // c = 2; // TypeError: Assignment to constant variable. ``` #### 3. Hoisting - **`var`**: Variables declared with `var` are hoisted to the top of their scope and initialized with `undefined`, which can lead to unexpected behavior if you try to use them before declaration. - **`let` and `const`**: Also hoisted, but they are not initialized. Accessing them before declaration results in a `ReferenceError`. ```javascript console.log(d); // undefined var d = 1; // console.log(e); // ReferenceError: Cannot access 'e' before initialization let e = 1; // console.log(f); // ReferenceError: Cannot access 'f' before initialization const f = 1; ``` #### 4. Readability and Maintenance Using `let` and `const` helps to make code more predictable and easier to understand. `const` clearly indicates that the value should not change, which helps other developers (and yourself) understand the intention behind the variable's usage. By using `let` and `const`, you reduce the chance of accidentally overwriting variables, leading to fewer bugs and more maintainable code. ### Conclusion In summary, `let` and `const` provide better control over variable scope and reassignment, leading to safer and more maintainable code compared to `var`. By adopting `let` and `const` in your JavaScript projects, you can write cleaner, more predictable code that is easier to understand and maintain. _Thank you for reading. Happy coding!_

Smart Contract Security Smart contracts are the core components of BitPower Loop, and their codes must undergo strict security audits before deployment. These audits are usually conducted by third-party independent security companies to ensure that there are no vulnerabilities or malicious code in the contract. In addition, the immutability of smart contracts means that once deployed, no one (including the development team) can modify its rules and logic, which fundamentally eliminates the possibility of malicious operations. All operations are automatically executed by smart contracts, avoiding the risk of human intervention and ensuring the fairness and consistency of system operation. 2. Decentralized Management BitPower Loop eliminates the risks brought by single point failures and central control through decentralized management. The system has no central management agency or owner, and all transactions and operations are jointly verified and recorded by blockchain nodes distributed around the world. This decentralized structure not only improves the system's anti-attack capabilities, but also enhances transparency. Users can publicly view all transaction records, which increases trust in the system. 3. Data and transaction security BitPower Loop uses advanced encryption technology to protect users' data and transaction information. All data is encrypted during transmission and storage to prevent unauthorized access and data leakage. The consensus mechanism of the blockchain ensures the validity and immutability of each transaction, eliminating the possibility of double payment and forged transactions. In addition, the automated execution of smart contracts also avoids delays and errors caused by human operations, ensuring the real-time and accuracy of transactions. 4. Fund security The secure storage of user funds is an important feature of BitPower Loop. Funds are stored on the blockchain through smart contracts and maintained by nodes across the entire network. Distributed storage avoids the risk of fund theft caused by centralized storage. In addition, the user's investment returns and shared commissions are automatically allocated to the user's wallet address by the smart contract after the conditions are met, ensuring the timely and accurate arrival of funds. 5. Risk Control Mechanism BitPower Loop effectively manages lending risks by setting collateral factors and liquidation mechanisms. The collateral factors are independently set according to market liquidity and asset value fluctuations to ensure system stability and lending security. When the value of the borrower's assets falls below a certain threshold, the liquidation mechanism is automatically triggered, ensuring the repayment of the borrower's debt and protecting the interests of the fund provider. In addition, the immutability and automatic execution characteristics of smart contracts further enhance the security and reliability of the system. Conclusion BitPower Loop achieves high security and stability through multi-level security measures and mechanism design. Its smart contracts are strictly audited and immutable, decentralized management eliminates single point failure risks, advanced encryption technology protects data and transaction security, distributed storage ensures fund security, and risk control mechanisms manage lending risks.

Recomendo também que leia o post sobre [callstack](https://dev.to/cristuker/javascript-o-que-e-callstack-3358) e também sobre [pilha](https://dev.to/cristuker/estrutura-de-dados-o-que-e-uma-pilha-296p). ## Tabela de conteúdo * [A Callstack](#a-callstack) * [Como alterar a ordem](#como-alterar-a-ordem) * [Ordem de prioridade das funções](#ordem-de-prioridade-das-funcoes) * [Referências](#referencias) ## A Callstack Antes de começarmos a alterar e colocar coisas como prioridade é importante entendermos o que é a callstack e para isso precisamos entender também o que é uma pilha. Tenho artigo explicando os dois eles vão estar no começo e no fim do post. Vamos dar uma passada bem rápida antes de começarmos: bom uma pilha é a exatamente como uma pilha de moedas ou roupas, o primeiro item a entrar é o último a sair e o ultimo a entrar é o primeiro a sair, da mesma forma como empilhamos moedas uma em cima da outra e depois tiramos a primeira de cima e assim por diante. A Callstack não é muito diferente disso porém ao invés de falarmos de moedas estamos falando de funções onde uma função vai chamando a outra. ## Como alterar a ordem Essa parte é de fato a mais simples. Para fazer isso nós temos as seguintes opções: process.nextTick, setImmediate, setTimeout e interval. E todas são executadas da mesma maneira, passando uma função de callback com as instruções que serão executadas. Abaixo um exemplo: ```javascript const Event = require('node:events'); const event = new Event(); const eventName = 'counter'; event.on(eventName, msg => console.log('counter update', msg)); const myCounter = { counter: 0 }; const proxy = new Proxy(myCounter, { set: (target, propertyKey, newValue) => { console.log('proxy', { newValue, key: target[propertyKey] }) event.emit(eventName, { newValue, key: target[propertyKey] }) target[propertyKey] = newValue; return true; }, get: (object, prop) => { // console.log('chamou', { object, prop }); return object[prop]; } }); setInterval(function () { proxy.counter +=1 if(proxy.counter === 10) clearInterval(this) }, 200) process.nextTick(() => { proxy.counter = 2; }); ``` Aqui nós temos um exemplo que usei também para aprender sobre o Proxy o tema do ultimo post, mas vai funciona bem. De forma simples esse exemplo conta de 0 a 10. Porém com a adição do `process.nextTick` o contador irá iniciar em 2 e não em 0 pois foi alterada a prioridade de execução. ## Ordem de prioridade das funções Acima eu citei 4 funções que alteram a prioridade na pilha de execução. Porém se ultilizarmos todas juntas existe uma ordem entre elas que será seguida, que é a seguinte: 1. process.nextTick 2. setImmediate 3. setTimeout 4. setInterval > É importante dizer que apesar do process.nextTick parecer a melhor função a ser usada, o seu uso não é recomendado sendo uma má prática, pois ela da prioridade total na pilha de execução atrapalhando o ciclo de vida do node. ## Referências * [Javascript: O que é Callstack](https://dev.to/cristuker/javascript-o-que-e-callstack-3358) * [Estrutura de dados: Pilha](https://dev.to/cristuker/estrutura-de-dados-o-que-e-uma-pilha-296p). ------- Espero que tenha sido claro e tenha ajudado a entender um pouco mais sobre o assunto, fique a vontade para dúvidas e sugestões abaixo!

https://dev.to/scholarhat/reactjs-vs-react-native-a-comprehensive-comparison-for-modern-developers-11jj
In the ever-evolving world of web and mobile development, choosing the right framework is crucial for success. Two popular options that often come up in discussions are [ReactJS vs React Native](https://www.scholarhat.com/tutorial/react/difference-between-react-js-and-react-native). While they share a common lineage, these frameworks serve different purposes and have distinct characteristics. This article will delve deep into the similarities, differences, and use cases of ReactJS and React Native, helping you make an informed decision for your next project. ### Understanding the Basics: ReactJS and React Native Explained ## What is ReactJS? ReactJS, commonly referred to as React, is an open-source JavaScript library developed by Facebook for building user interfaces, primarily for web applications. It allows developers to create reusable UI components and manage the state of these components efficiently. ReactJS has gained immense popularity due to its simplicity, flexibility, and performance optimizations. ## What is React Native? React Native, on the other hand, is a framework for building cross-platform mobile applications using React and native platform capabilities. It allows developers to use ReactJS concepts to create mobile apps that can run on both iOS and Android devices. React Native bridges the gap between web and mobile development, offering a "learn once, write anywhere" approach. ## Key Differences Between ReactJS and React Native While ReactJS and React Native share some common ground, they have several crucial differences that set them apart. Let's explore these differences in detail: ## 1. Platform and Output ## ReactJS: Primarily used for web development Outputs HTML, CSS, and JavaScript Runs in web browsers ## React Native: Used for mobile app development Outputs native mobile UI components Runs on mobile devices (iOS and Android) ## 2. Rendering Mechanism ## ReactJS: Uses a virtual DOM (Document Object Model) for efficient rendering Updates the actual DOM when changes occur ## React Native: Uses native components and APIs Renders to native UI elements specific to each platform ## 3. Styling Approach ## ReactJS: Uses CSS for styling Supports CSS modules, styled-components, and other CSS-in-JS solutions ## React Native: Uses a JavaScript object for styling, similar to CSS Provides a subset of CSS properties optimized for mobile ## 4. Component Libraries ## ReactJS: Has a vast ecosystem of third-party component libraries Popular libraries include Material-UI, Ant Design, and Chakra UI ## React Native: Has a growing ecosystem of mobile-specific component libraries Notable libraries include React Native Elements and NativeBase ## 5. Navigation ## ReactJS: Uses libraries like React Router for navigation Typically relies on browser history API ## React Native: Uses specialized navigation libraries like React Navigation Implements native navigation patterns for each platform ## Similarities Between ReactJS and React Native ## Despite their differences, ReactJS and React Native share several core concepts and features: Component-Based Architecture: Both frameworks use a component-based approach to building user interfaces. Virtual DOM: While React Native doesn't use a browser's DOM, it employs a similar concept for efficient updates. JSX: Both frameworks use JSX, a syntax extension for JavaScript, to describe the UI structure. Unidirectional Data Flow: They both follow a one-way data flow, making it easier to manage and debug application state. React Hooks: Introduced in React 16.8, hooks are available in both ReactJS and React Native for managing state and side effects. ## When to Choose ReactJS ReactJS is an excellent choice for various web development scenarios. Here are some situations where ReactJS shines: ## 1. Single-Page Applications (SPAs) ReactJS excels at building SPAs, where the entire application runs on a single HTML page. Its efficient rendering and state management make it perfect for creating smooth, responsive user experiences. ## 2. Complex User Interfaces For web applications with intricate UIs and frequent updates, ReactJS's component-based architecture and virtual DOM provide optimal performance and maintainability. ## 3. Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) ReactJS can be used to create PWAs, which offer a native app-like experience within web browsers. This is ideal for businesses looking to provide a mobile-friendly experience without developing separate native apps. ## 4. Server-Side Rendering (SSR) With frameworks like Next.js, ReactJS supports server-side rendering, which can significantly improve initial load times and SEO performance for content-heavy websites. ## 5. Large-Scale Web Applications ReactJS's modularity and extensive ecosystem make it suitable for building and maintaining large-scale web applications with multiple developers working simultaneously. ## When to Choose React Native React Native is the go-to choice for certain mobile development scenarios. Here's when you should consider using React Native: ## 1. Cross-Platform Mobile Apps If you need to develop an app for both iOS and Android platforms with a single codebase, React Native is an excellent choice. It allows for significant code reuse between platforms, saving time and resources. ## 2. Rapid Prototyping React Native's "hot reloading" feature enables developers to see changes in real-time, making it ideal for quickly prototyping and iterating on mobile app ideas. ## 3. Performance-Critical Mobile Apps While not as performant as fully native apps in all scenarios, React Native can deliver near-native performance for many types of applications, especially when optimized correctly. ## 4. Apps with Simple to Moderate Complexity React Native is well-suited for apps with straightforward to moderately complex user interfaces and functionality. It can handle a wide range of mobile app use cases efficiently. ## 5. Extending Existing Native Apps React Native can be integrated into existing native iOS or Android apps, allowing developers to add new features or screens using React Native without rewriting the entire application. ## Performance Considerations: ReactJS vs React Native When comparing ReactJS and React Native, performance is a crucial factor to consider. Let's examine how each framework performs in different scenarios: ## ReactJS Performance **Virtual DOM:** ReactJS's virtual DOM minimizes actual DOM manipulations, resulting in faster rendering and updates. Code Splitting: ReactJS supports code splitting, allowing developers to load only the necessary code for each route, improving initial load times. Server-Side Rendering: With SSR, ReactJS can provide faster initial page loads and improved SEO. Optimization Techniques: ReactJS offers various optimization techniques like memoization, lazy loading, and the use of PureComponent for better performance. ## React Native Performance Native Components: React Native uses native UI components, which can lead to better performance compared to hybrid mobile frameworks. JavaScript Core: React Native runs JavaScript code in a separate thread, preventing UI blocking and ensuring smooth animations. Platform-Specific Optimizations: React Native allows developers to write platform-specific code when needed, optimizing performance for each platform. Hermes Engine: Facebook's Hermes JavaScript engine, available for React Native, can significantly improve app start-up time and reduce memory usage. ## Development Experience: ReactJS vs React Native The development experience is another crucial aspect to consider when choosing between ReactJS and React Native. Let's compare the two: ## ReactJS Development Experience Extensive Ecosystem: ReactJS has a vast ecosystem of libraries, tools, and community support, making it easier to find solutions and resources. Browser DevTools: Developers can use browser developer tools for debugging and inspecting ReactJS applications. Fast Refresh: ReactJS supports fast refresh, allowing developers to see changes instantly without losing component state. Flexible Styling: ReactJS offers multiple styling options, from traditional CSS to CSS-in-JS solutions. ## React Native Development Experience Mobile-Specific Challenges: Developers need to consider mobile-specific issues like device fragmentation and platform differences. Expo: Tools like Expo simplify React Native development by providing a set of pre-built components and services. React Native CLI: The official CLI tool helps developers set up and manage React Native projects efficiently. Platform-Specific Code: React Native allows writing platform-specific code when needed, providing flexibility in handling platform differences. ## Future Trends: ReactJS and React Native As we look to the future, both ReactJS and React Native continue to evolve. Here are some trends and developments to watch: ## ReactJS Future Trends Server Components: React Server Components aim to improve performance and reduce bundle sizes by rendering components on the server. Concurrent Mode: This feature will enable React to work on multiple tasks simultaneously, improving responsiveness. Suspense for Data Fetching: Suspense will provide a more straightforward way to handle asynchronous operations and loading states. ## React Native Future Trends Improved Performance: Ongoing efforts to enhance React Native's performance, including work on the new architecture. Better Integration with Native APIs: Continued improvements in bridging React Native with native platform capabilities. Web Support: The React Native for Web project aims to bring React Native components and APIs to web browsers. ## Conclusion: Making the Right Choice In the ReactJS vs React Native debate, there's no one-size-fits-all answer. The choice between these two powerful frameworks depends on your project requirements, target platform, and development goals. Choose ReactJS if you're focused on web development, need to create complex single-page applications, or require server-side rendering capabilities. Its robust ecosystem and flexibility make it an excellent choice for a wide range of web projects. Opt for React Native if your primary goal is to develop cross-platform mobile applications with a native look and feel. It's particularly useful when you want to leverage your React knowledge to build mobile apps efficiently. Ultimately, both ReactJS and React Native are powerful tools in a developer's arsenal. By understanding their strengths, limitations, and use cases, you can make an informed decision that best suits your project needs and sets you up for success in the ever-evolving world of web and mobile development.

# Node Boilerplate Typescript - [This repo](https://github.com/bhumit070/node-boilerplate-ts) is boilerplate for typescript and nodejs projects ## What is included - Server with express - Security Packages - [hpp](https://www.npmjs.com/package/hpp) - Express middleware to protect against HTTP Parameter Pollution attacks - [helmet](https://www.npmjs.com/package/helmet) - Helmet helps secure Express apps by setting HTTP response headers. - File uploading - Sending Emails - Logging - By default it is configured to log on console but you can extend it to write to any file as well - Object(s) Validation using zod - Error Handling - Express Req object extend with typescript support ## Routing - The base path for api will be `api`. - Any folder you put inside modules folder that container `routes.ts` file will be added to express router stack and that will be route for the api as well. - So suppose if you make folder something like `modules/v1/file/routes.ts` then all the routes defined in that `routes.ts` file will be registered and will be available at `domain/api/modules/v1/file`. - So think like routing as a file based routing. - You must export router as default export from `routes.ts` file to make this happen. ## Error handling - You can alway use try catch in your controllers to handle errors by your self, but here I have used different approach. - Just wrap your any controller/middleware that receives express's `req,res` object wrap them in `PromiseHandler` function and this will handle the rest of the stuff. - Also you can create custom errors in error folder as per your requirement and handle it in `handleApiError` according the way you want.

https://dev.to/skandaprasaad/learnt-c-language-1cgc
Hello, fellow developers! I'm excited to journey of learning C programming with you all. C is known for its efficiency, portability, and low-level access to memory, making it ideal for system-level programming It serves as the foundational language for many modern programming languages, such as C++, Java, and Python. 💻 Syntax and Structure : ``` #include <stdio.h> int main() { int age = 30; // Variable declaration and initialization printf("Hello, World! I am %d years old.\n", age); // Output statement return 0; // Return statement } ``` 🌟 Personal Experience : Learning C was both challenging and rewarding. Initially, understanding pointers and manual memory management was daunting. However, with consistent practice and debugging, I overcame these challenges.

javascript, reactnative, react, beginners
Have you ever tried to work with images in your React Native app and felt a bit lost? Don't worry, you're not alone! Handling images in React Native can seem a little different from what you're used to on the web, but once you understand the basics, it becomes a breeze. Let's start with the Image component. React Native provides this built-in component to display images in your app, just like how you'd use a <img /> tag on the web. However, there's a catch: if you want to set an image as a background, you'll need to use a different component called ImageBackground. Now, you might be thinking, "Why can't I just use the Image component for backgrounds too?" Well, the Image component is designed specifically for displaying standalone images, like profile pictures or product images. It's optimized for performance and comes with features like caching and resizing out of the box. On the other hand, the <ImageBackground /> component is meant for, you guessed it, setting images as backgrounds for your app's views or components. This component acts as a container that stretches the image to fit its entire area, making it perfect for creating visually appealing backgrounds. Today, our goal is to break down the Image component and explore how we can use it to meet our various requirements. As I mentioned, the Image component is provided by React Native, so it's necessary to import the Image component from React Native. ```javascript import { Image } from 'react-native'; ``` Amazing! Now, we will show three different examples of using the Image component in React Native with various variations: ```javascript import { StatusBar } from "expo-status-bar"; import { Image, View } from "react-native"; import { SafeAreaView } from "react-native-safe-area-context"; const Home = () => { return ( <SafeAreaView className="flex-1 p-4"> <View className="flex-1 space-y-3"> <Image className="w-28 h-28" resizeMethod="contain" source={require("../assets/images/image.jpg")} /> <Image className="w-28 h-28 rounded-full" source={{ uri: "https://letsenhance.io/static/8f5e523ee6b2479e26ecc91b9c25261e/1015f/MainAfter.jpg", }} /> </View> <StatusBar backgroundColor="#000" style="auto" /> </SafeAreaView> ); }; export default Home; ``` Here is the output of the above code: ![React Native Image Component](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/zxcmj42joys4w1gke1xa.jpg) In the above component, you will notice two images. My concern is not with the images themselves but with the use of require() and URI. If you look closely, you'll see we used two different source options depending on the URL. For plain image URLs, you have to use URI instead of require(). If your images are already in your project directory in a static location, you can use the require() method. I hope you understand how the Image component works in different setups. Depending on the situation, we can use either require() or a URI. So far, we have covered the usage of the Image component. However, this is not the end of the story for the Image component, there are a couple of important things to discuss. When it comes to the props of the Image component, the list is extensive. I highly recommend looking into the React Native Image component documentation. There, you will find numerous props that we can pass into the Image component, which can simplify our work based on your requirements. For example, if we want to use the alt prop in the Image component, here is the code: ```javascript <Image className="w-28 h-28" resizeMethod="contain" source={require("../assets/images/image.jpg")} alt="Wildlife image" /> ``` It's one example of how you can leverage the prop in the Image component. Well, we have covered almost all of the important points. Just one more thing I want to highlight is the usage of GIF and WebP support on Android. When building your native code, GIF and WebP are not supported by default on Android. You will need to add some optional modules in android/app/build.gradle, depending on the needs of your app. ``` dependencies { // If your app supports Android versions before Ice Cream Sandwich (API level 14) implementation 'com.facebook.fresco:animated-base-support:1.3.0' // For animated GIF support implementation 'com.facebook.fresco:animated-gif:3.1.3' // For WebP support, including animated WebP implementation 'com.facebook.fresco:animated-webp:3.1.3' implementation 'com.facebook.fresco:webpsupport:3.1.3' // For WebP support, without animations implementation 'com.facebook.fresco:webpsupport:3.1.3' } ``` Amazing, I believe if you covered this part of the article, you won't have any problem using the Image component in your React Native applications. By thoroughly understanding the concepts and techniques discussed here, you'll be well-equipped to seamlessly integrate images into your projects, elevating the overall user experience and making your app more visually appealing.

## Qualitative Market Research Definition: [Qualitative market research](https://www.sganalytics.com/market-research/qualitative-market-research/) focuses on understanding the underlying reasons, opinions, and motivations behind consumer behaviors. It provides insights into the problem and helps to develop ideas or hypotheses for potential quantitative research. Methods: Focus Groups: Small groups of people (typically 6-10) discuss a product, service, or concept. A moderator guides the discussion to uncover deeper insights. In-Depth Interviews: One-on-one interviews that explore individual experiences and opinions. These interviews can be conducted face-to-face, over the phone, or via video calls. Ethnographic Research: Researchers observe consumers in their natural environment. This method helps understand how products are used in real-life contexts. Case Studies: Detailed investigations of a single entity (individual, group, or organization) to explore the causes of underlying principles. Content Analysis: Analyzing written, spoken, or visual communication to identify patterns or themes. Advantages: Provides in-depth understanding of consumer behavior. Can uncover unexpected insights. Flexible and adaptable to explore new areas of interest. Disadvantages: Time-consuming and often more expensive. Findings may not be generalizable to the larger population. Subject to researcher bias. ## Quantitative Market Research Definition: [Quantitative market research](https://www.sganalytics.com/market-research/quantitative-market-research/) involves the collection of numerical data that can be quantified and used to identify patterns and make predictions. It aims to measure the market phenomena and answer questions like "how many," "how much," and "how often." Methods: Surveys: Structured questionnaires distributed to a large sample size. Can be conducted online, by phone, by mail, or in person. Experiments: Controlled studies that manipulate one or more variables to determine their effect on an outcome. Often used to test hypotheses. Observational Research: Observing consumer behavior in a structured manner, often with the aid of technological tools. Can be done in natural settings or in simulated environments. Secondary Data Analysis: Analyzing existing data collected for other purposes. Sources can include government reports, market studies, and previous research findings. Longitudinal Studies: Conducting research over a long period to track changes and developments over time. Advantages: Provides data that is statistically reliable and generalizable. Can identify trends and correlations. Useful for making predictions and informed decisions. Disadvantages: Lacks the depth and context provided by qualitative research. Can be costly and time-consuming if large sample sizes are required. The rigidity of structured questionnaires can limit the scope of insights. Combining Qualitative and Quantitative Research Many market research projects use a combination of both qualitative and quantitative methods to gain a comprehensive understanding. This approach is known as mixed-methods research. Here’s how they complement each other: Exploratory Phase (Qualitative): Helps identify key variables and generate hypotheses. Measurement Phase (Quantitative): Tests the hypotheses and measures the variables identified. Interpretative Phase (Qualitative): Adds context to the quantitative data, explaining the "why" behind the numbers. Conclusion Both qualitative and quantitative market research have their own strengths and limitations. By understanding and effectively using both methods, businesses can gain deeper and more actionable insights into their markets and make more informed strategic decisions.

## Задача. Дан массив целых чисел nums и число k. Нужно вернуть true, если в массиве есть два уникальных индекса i и j, такие что nums[i] == nums[j] и abs(i-j)<=k. Ссылка на leetcode: https://leetcode.com/problems/contains-duplicate-ii/ Примеры: Input: nums = [1,2,3,1], k = 3 Output: true nums[0] == nums[3] abs(3-0) <= k Input: nums = [1,2,3,1,2,3], k = 2 Output: false Одинаковые элементы есть, но расстояние между ними больше 2. ## Решение. Переформулируем задачу более понятным языком: > Нам нужно проверить, есть ли среди элементов массива повторяющиеся элементы, которые находятся на расстоянии меньше или равном > k друг от друга. ### Brute force Очевидное решение, которое приходит в голову - это сравнить все пары элементов в массиве, если они равны, вычислить расстояние между ними по индексам, если это расстояние меньше или равно k - вернуть true. **Как перебрать все возможные пары элементов в массиве?** **Ответ**: двумя вложенными циклами, причем вложенный цикл будет не от нуля, а от i + 1, чтобы не сравнивать элементы сами с собой, а также не перебирать одни и теже пары два раза (вроде пар (nums[1], nums[2]) и (nums[2], nums[1]), т.к. это по сути та же самая пара): ```java for (int i = 0; i < nums.length; i++) { for (int j = i + 1; j < nums.length; j++) { //проверяем пару nums[i] и nums[j] } ``` Дополним этот код проверкой, что у нас элементы пары равны между собой и расстояние между ними меньше или равно k: ```java public boolean containsNearbyDuplicate(int[] nums, int k) { for (int i = 0; i < nums.length; i++) { for (int j = i + 1; j < nums.length; j++) { if (nums[i] == nums[j] && j - i <= k) { return true; } } } return false; } ``` Временная сложность такого решения - **O(n^2)**, т.к. у нас 2 вложенных цикла по массиву. Сложность по памяти - **O(1)**. **Sliding Window** Можем ли мы улучшить наше решение по временной сложности? Да, мы можем применить подход, который называется **Sliding Window (скользящее окно).** Для этого нам нужно заметить, что нас интересует **наличие дубликата на расстоянии меньше или равном k от произвольного текущего элемента массива.** Т.е. мы можем **всего один раз проитерироваться** по массиву и хравнить в памяти для быстрого доступа только k предыдущих элементов массива. Например, для массива: ![Image description](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/m4igquij8g3hbh9y5jxx.png) и k = 3, будем хранить предыдущие 3 элемента массива в некой структуре данных (скользящем окне). Допустим, при итерациях вдоль массива мы достигли элемента с индексом i = 3: ![Image description](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/k6oqrb3uzl87srh2lku4.png) Тогда в Sliding Window мы будем хранить предыдущие 3 элемента массива. Нам нужно проверить, есть ли текущий элемент среди элементов помещенных в Sliding Window. Если есть, то нужно вернуть true в качестве результата работы функции. Если нет, то перейдем к следующей итерации цикла и обновим Sliding Window, чтобы хранить там предыдущие 3 элемента массива: ![Image description](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/jwc6e5ruik2vl1w5x93e.png) И снова нам нужно повторить проверку, есть ли среди элементов в Sliding Window текущий элемент. В данном случае есть - поэтому вернем true. Хорошо, алгоритм понятен. Как нам реализовать это в коде? Т.к. нам нужно **иметь возможность быстро проверить наличие или отсутствие элемента в Sliding Window**, нам нужно использовать **что-то типа HashMap**. Но в данном случае нам будет достаточно **HashSet**, т.к. нам надо хранить только ключи, без значений. ```java Set<Integer> slidingWindow = new HashSet<>(); ``` По мере итераций, нам надо удалять из Sliding Window самый первый элемент и добавлять текущий. Самый первый элемент, это элемент на расстоянии k от текущего. ![Image description](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/5v0jps30n6en07dt7vm9.png) Тогда получим: ```java Set<Integer> slidingWindow = new HashSet<>(); for(int i = 0 ; i < nums.length; i++) { //удаляем первый элемент //элемент на расстоянии k по индексам от текущего slidingWindow.remove(nums[i - k - 1]); ... //Добавляем текущий/новый элемент slidingWindow.add(nums[i]); } ``` Т.к. мы вычисляем элемент на расстоянии k от текущего по формуле i - k - 1, то нам надо добавить проверку, чтобы мы не вышли за пределы массива: ```java for(int i = 0 ; i < nums.length; i++) { if (i > k) { slidingWindow.remove(nums[i - k - 1]); } .... slidingWindow.add(nums[i]); } ``` В таком виде, Sliding Window будет хранить только k предыдущих элементов массива. Теперь осталось только добавить проверку, что в Sliding Window есть текущий элемент: ```java public boolean containsNearbyDuplicate(int[] nums, int k) { Set<Integer> slidingWindow = new HashSet<>(); for(int i = 0 ; i < nums.length; i++) { if (i > k) { slidingWindow.remove(nums[i - k - 1]); } if (slidingWindow.contains(nums[i])) { return true; } slidingWindow.add(nums[i]); } return false; } ``` Временная сложность такого решения - **O(n)**. Сложность по памяти - **O(k)**, т.к. мы дополнительно храним k предыдущих элементов в Sliding Window.

It's size attribute of the HTML `input`; - **plaintext** - renders input as plain text. Usually used along side `readonly`; - **readonly**; - **disabled**; - **value**; - **onChange**; - **type={string}**; - **isValid**; - **isInValid**. ### Form.Text props - **muted** - add `text-muted` class. ### Form.Select ```html <Form.Select aria-label="Default select example"> <option>Open this select menu</option> <option value="1">One</option> <option value="2">Two</option> <option value="3">Three</option> </Form.Select> ``` #### Form.Select props - **size={'sm'|'lg'}**; - **htmlSize={number}**; - **disabled**; - **value**; - **onChange**; - **isValid**; - **isInValid**. ### Form.Check ```html <Form.Check type='radio' id='radio' label='radio' /> ``` We can implement toggle switch: ```html <Form.Switch id="custom-switch" label="Check this switch" /> ``` #### Form.Check with children ```html <Form.Check type='radio' id='radio'> <Form.Check.Input type='radio' isValid /> <Form.Check.Label>radio</Form.Check.Label> <Form.Control.Feedback type="valid"> You did it! </Form.Control.Feedback> </Form.Check> ``` #### Form.Check props - **inline** - groups controls horizontally; - **reverse** - put checkboxes etc. on the opposite side; - **disabled**; - **title={str}**; - **type={'radio'|'checkbox'|'switch'}**; - **isValid**; - **isInValid**; - **feedback** - a message to display when the input is in a validation state; - **feedbackType={'valid'|'invalid'}**. #### Form.Check.Input props - **type={'radio'|'checkbox'}**; - **isValid**; - **isInValid**; ### Floating labels Labels floating over input fields. ```html <FloatingLabel controlId="formBasicPassword" label="Password"> <Form.Control type="password" placeholder="Password" /> </FloatingLabel> ``` >`placeholder` in `<Form.Control>` is required since react-bootstrap uses `:placeholder-shown` pseudo-element. #### FloattingLabel props - **controlId={string}** - sets id and htmlFor; - **label={string|node}** - form control label. ### Form Layout #### Label and Control placed horizontally ```html <Row> <Form.Label column="lg" lg={2}> Large Text </Form.Label> <Col> <Form.Control size="lg" type="text" placeholder="Large text" /> </Col> </Row> <br /> <Row> <Form.Label column lg={2}> Normal Text </Form.Label> <Col> <Form.Control type="text" placeholder="Normal text" /> </Col> </Row> ``` ### Validation To "turn on" react-bootstrap validation style it's better to "turn off" built-in browser validator by adding `noValidate` in `Form`: ```javascript const [validated, setValidated] = useState(false); const handleSubmit = (e) => { e.preventDefault(); const form = e.currentTarget; if (form.checkValidity() === true) { // submit logic } else { setValidated(true); } } return( <Form onSubmit={handleSubmit} noValidated validated={validated} > // ... </Form> } ```

react, bootstrap
Bootstrap Javascript is not recommended to use with React. React-Bootstrap creates each component as a true React component so there won't be any conflict with React library. ## Table of contents - [Installation and usage](#installation-and-usage) - [**as** Prop API](#**as**-prop-api) - [Theming](#theming) - [Components](#components) - [Accordion](#accordion) - [Alerts](#alerts) - [Badges](#badges) - [Breadcrumbs](#breadcrumbs) - [Buttons](#buttons) - [Button group](#button-group) - [Cards](#cards) - [Carousels](#carousels) - [Dropdowns](#dropdowns) - [Images](#images) - [List groups](#list-groups) - [Modals](#modals) - [Navs](#navs) - [Navbars](#navbars) - [Offcanvas](#offcanvas) - [Progress bars](#progress-bars) - [Spinners](#spinners) - [Tables](#tables) - [Tabs](#tabs) - [Toasts](#toasts) ## Installation and usage ```bash npm i react-bootstrap ``` If we don't want to customize Bootstrap CSS we can just include it using cdn, otherwise we should install vanilla bootstrap via package manager: ```bash npm i bootstrap ``` Then we should import library in root module: ```javascript import 'bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css'; ``` Importing Bootstrap CSS should be before importing css/scss files and React components if they use css/scss files. To use react-bootstrap components we should import each individually where we need it: ```javascript import Button from 'react-bootstrap/Button'; // or import { Button } from 'react-bootstrap'; ``` ## **as** Prop API If we want to keep styling of the certain React-Bootstrap component but change the final rendered component (different HTML tag, different custom component) we can use `as` prop: ```javascript import { Button, Badge } from 'react-bootstrap'; const Component = () => { return ( <> <Button as="a">Link</Button> <Badge as={Button}>Button</Badge> </> ) } ``` ## Theming We can set bootstrap theme using `data-bs-theme` attribute. Globally we should add it to `<html>` element. For example, if we want 'dark' color mode we add `data-bs-theme="dark"`. ## Components ### Accordion Vertically collapsing element: ```html <Accordion defaultActiveKey="0"> <Accordion.Item eventKey="0"> <Accordion.Header>Accordion Item #1</Accordion.Header> <Accordion.Body> Lorem ipsum </Accordion.Body> </Accordion.Item> <Accordion.Item eventKey="1"> <Accordion.Header>Accordion Item #2</Accordion.Header> <Accordion.Body> Lorem ipsum </Accordion.Body> </Accordion.Item> </Accordion> ``` #### Accordion props - **defaultActiveKey={value}** - which `Accordion.Item` is open by default. The value corresponds to `eventKey`. If there is no `defaultActiveKey` no item is open by default; - **flush** - removes the dafault background-color, borders. - **alwaysOpen** - not close the item when another item is opened. If we want multiple items to be open by default: ```html <Accordion defaultActiveKey={["0","1"]} alwaysOpen > ``` - **onSelect={(selectedEventKey, event) => {}}** - fires when the active item changes. ### Alerts Styled feedback message: ```html <Alert variant='warning'> <Alert.Heading> Hey, just a warning </Alert.Heading> This is a 'warning' alert with <Alert.Link href="#"> an example link </Alert.Link>. </Alert> ``` #### Alert props - **variant={value}** - style, where value may equal: - 'primary', - 'secondary', - 'success', - 'danger', - 'warning', - 'info', - 'light', - 'dark'; - **dismissible** - adds button that dismisses the alert; - **show={Boolean}** - visual state of the Alert; - **onClose={func}** - callback invoked when alert is closed ### Badges Count and labeling component, that matches the size of the immediate parent: ```html <Button variant="primary"> Profile <Badge bg="secondary">9</Badge> <span className="visually-hidden">unread messages</span> </Button> ``` #### Badge props - **bg-{keyword}** - similar to apply bootstrap `.text-bg-{keyword}` class, where keyword is the same as variant in Alert component; - **pill** - borders are more rounded. ### Breadcrumbs Current page's location within a navigational hierarchy: ```html <Breadcrumb> <Breadcrumb.Item href="#">Home</Breadcrumb.Item> <Breadcrumb.Item href="https://getbootstrap.com/docs/4.0/components/breadcrumb/"> Library </Breadcrumb.Item> <Breadcrumb.Item active>Data</Breadcrumb.Item> </Breadcrumb> ``` #### Breadcrumb.Item props - **href={value}**; - **active** - it overrides 'href'; `span` element renders instead of `a` element . ### Buttons #### Button props - **variant={value}** - style, where value may equal: - 'primary', - 'secondary', - 'success', - 'danger', - 'warning', - 'info', - 'light', - 'dark', - 'link', - 'outline-primary' - no background color, - 'outline-secondary', - 'outline-success', - 'outline-danger', - 'outline-warning', - 'outline-info', - 'outline-light', - 'outline-dark'; - **size={value}** - scale, where value may equal: - 'lg', - 'sm'; - **disabled**; - **href={value}** - renders <a> element styled as button; - **type={'button'/'reset'/'submit'/null}** #### ToggleButton It is used to style `checkbox`: ```html <ToggleButton id="toggle-check" type="checkbox" variant='outline-primary' checked={checked} value="1" onChange={(e) => { setChecked(e.currentTarget.checked); }} > Controlled checked </ToggleButton> ``` and `radio`: ```html <ToggleButton id="radio-1" type="radio" variant="outline-secondary" name="radioOptions" value="1" checked={radioValue==='1'} onChange={(e) => setRadioValue(e.currentTarget.value)} > radio option 1 </ToggleButton> <ToggleButton id="radio-2" type="radio" variant="outline-secondary" name="radioOptions" value="2" checked={radioValue==='2'} onChange={(e) => setRadioValue(e.currentTarget.value)} > radio option 2 </ToggleButton> ``` ### Button group - **`<ButtonGroup>`** - wrapper around group of `<Button>`, `<DropdownButton>` elements;

Why Are Technical Flame Retardant Fabrics So Important Nowadays, in the rapidly growing industries workplace safety is essential. In high-risk work environments, technical flame retardant fabrics are key to ensure the safety of workers. Developed to resist high temperatures and flames, these unique fabrics are used for industrial applications where employees come in contact with flammable parts and must be protected from getting on fire leading to catastrophic workplace accidents. The Science Behind Flame Retardant Materials The science of flame retardant fabrics To fully understand the significance behind using flame-retardants, it is essential to get down to brass tacks on what these substances are. Flame retardant treated fabrics typically experience a process of chemical treatment to help avoid flames ignite or propagate. This flame-out occurs in mere seconds, as the lining starves the fire from oxygen. Flame retardant 100% Cotton Fabric must adhere to the most stringent safety standards, and they are tested under strict testing conditions with the potential of tolerating high temperatures as well flames. Flame Retardant Textiles Dependent Industries The flame retardant textile market is utilized in several industries for worker safety. There is quite one example, the oil and gas field that involves literally flammable 100% Polyester Fabric materials and an atmosphere with very high temperatures on a daily basis. For facial protection goggles, use of a nominal safety helmets and flame retardant coveralls that are specialized would be necessary to ensure enough precautionary measures against hazards. In addition, fire retardant fabrics are also used in areas such as chemical work clothing, electrical operation apparel firefighting garb at military operations etc which enhance safety. Factors When Choosing Flame-Retardant Fabrics There are some key factors to consider when selecting the appropriate flame retardant fabric. The fabric you end up selecting should, first of all - meet your industry's safety standards. Besides, the fabric has to be comfortable and flexible enough for workers who are more likely going to wear functional 100% Nylon Fabric clothing if they feel comfort between their daily activities. It is equally significant to maintain flame retardant fabrics for their lasting properties. Flame Resistant FR Clothing in Preventing Workplace Mishaps Flame retardant fabrics help to significantly reduce workplace accidents by acting as a safeguard against high temperature and flames. These protections dramatically reduce the potential for harm in precarious fields. Furthermore, in addition to protecting workers, the use of flame retardant fabrics also helps prevent damage to equipment and facilities saving money on accident costs.

[Position](#position) 9. [Color & background](#color-amp-background) 10. [Colored links](#colored-links) 11. [Stacks](#stacks) 12. [Stretched link](#stretched-link) 13. [Text truncation](#text-truncation) 14. [Visually hidden](#visually-hidden) ## Sizing ### Relative to the parent We can set the following classes for child element to control its' width: - `.w-25` - means 25% of the parent's width; - `.w-50`; - `.w-75`; - `.w-100`; - `.w-auto` The same values go for `.h-*` class. We can also set `max-widht: 100%` with `.mw-100` and `max-height: 100%` with `.mh-100`. ### Relative to viewport - `.vw-100` - width is 100vw; - `.vh-100` - height is 100vh; - `.min-vw-100` - min-width is 100vw; - `.min-vh-100` - min-height is 100vw; ## Spacing ### Margin and padding Classes names are constructed using `{property}{sides}-{size}`, where **property**: - `m` - for margin; - `p` - for padding. **sides**: - `t` - top; - `b` - bottom; - `s` - start(left); - `e` - end(right); - `x` - left and right; - `y` - top and bottom. **size**: > `$spacer` variable is defined in `scss/_variables.scss` and equals to `1rem` - `1` = `$spacer` * .25; - `2` = `$spacer` * .5; - `3` = `$spacer`; - `4` = `$spacer` * 1.5; - `5` = `$spacer` * 3; - `auto` We can also define margin and padding for breakpoints: `{property}{sides}-{breakpoint}-{size}`. ### Horizontal centering If an element is displayed as `block`, we can center horizontally by applying `.mx-auto` class. ### Gap For `grid` and `flex` we can apply `.gap-*`, `.row-gap-*` and `.column-gap-*` classes. ## Text ### Text alignment - `.text-{breakpoint}-start` - `.text-{breakpoint}-center` - `.text-{breakpoint}-end` ### Word break `.text-break` class sets `word-wrap: break-word`. ### Text transform - `.text-lowercase` - `.text-uppercase` - `.text-capitalize` ## Background To see how each color looks and the meaning stands for the name [visit](https://getbootstrap.com/docs/5.3/customize/color). We can set predefined background colors applying `.bg-*` classes: - `.bg-primary`; - `.bg-secondary`; - `.bg-success`; - `.bg-danger`; - `.bg-warning`; - `.bg-info`; - `.bg-light`; - `.bg-dark`; > For each of upper classes we can add `*-subtle` to make a class with more subtle background color like `.bg-primary-subtle` - `.bg-body-secondary`; - `.bg-body-tertiary`; - `.bg-body`; - `.bg-black`; - `.bg-white`; - `.bg-transparent`; We can add `.bg-gradient` class to background color class - it results into semi-transparent top and fully colored bottom. To add opacity to predefined background color, we should override `--bs-bg-opacity` variable in inline style: ```html <div class="bg-primary" style="--bs-bg-opacity: .5;"> This is 50% opacity success background </div> ``` ## Borders - `.border` - all four edges; - `.border-*` - only specific edge (top, bottom, etc.); - `.border-0` - remove all borders; - `.border-*-0` - remove specific edge; ### Color We can use the same keywords as in background colors (primary, danger, warning) for border color, using `.border-*` class. ### Width To set width of border we need `.border-{number-of-pixels}` class. There are only 1-5 values available. {% codepen https://codepen.io/juliashlykova/pen/bGJyXPw %} ### Radius - `.rounded-{scale}` - scale is in range from 1 to 5; - `.rounded` - a little rounded border; - `.rounded-top` - top angles are rounded; - `.rounded-bottom`; - `.rounded-start`; - `.rounded-end`; - `.rounded-circle`; - `.rounded-pill`. We can combine these classes: - `.rounded-5.rounded-top-0` - top angles are not rounded; - `.rounded-end-circle` - only right angles are rounded with 50% value. ## Text color Class `.text-*` has the same keywords as `.bg-*` class. However, instead of `-subtle` postfix there is `-emphasis` that means darker color: {% codepen https://codepen.io/juliashlykova/pen/ExJBYvM %} ## Display `.d-*` allows almost all CSS display rules: - `.d-none` - `.d-inline` - `.d-inline-block` - `.d-block` - `.d-grid` - `.d-inline-grid` - `.d-table` - `.d-table-cell` - `.d-table-row` - `.d-flex` - `.d-inline-flex` To set different display after certain breakpoint we can use `.d-{breakpoint}-*` class. ### Flex For flexbox we can set direction: ```html <div class="d-flex flex-row"></div> <div class="d-flex flex-sm-row"></div> <div class="d-flex flex-column-reverse"></div> ``` For wrapping we apply `.flex-wrap`. We can also apply align items inside flex using `.justify-content-{breakpoint}-*` and `.align-items-{breakpoint}-*` where `*` is value in CSS corresponding rules. For individual alignment we should use `.align-self-{breakpoint}-*`. ## Position To set position we use `.position-*` class, where `*` can be `relative`, `absolute` etc. To arrange elements we use: - `.top-{0/50/100}`, where `50` means 50% edge position; - `.start-{0/50/100}`; - `.bottom-{0/50/100}`; - `.end-{0/50/100}`. We can center elements applying combination of upper classes and `.translate-middle` which applies `translateX(-50%)` and `translateY(-50%)`. ### Fast positioning We can quickly configure the position of an element: - `.fixed-top` - `.fixed-bottom` - `.sticky-{breakpoint}-top` - `.sticky-{breakpoint}-bottom` ## Color & background For the predefined background color we can use `.text-bg-{primary/secondary/success/etc}` class to get contrast text color (either black or white) to background. This class replaces both `.text-{color}` and `.bg-{color}`. Boostrap uses its' own `color-contrast` function, which we can find in [https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/blob/main/scss/_functions.scss](https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/blob/main/scss/_functions.scss). It uses [relative luminance](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_luminance) to determine contrast. ## Colored links We can color links and its' underline with `.link-{primary/secondary/success/etc}` class. ## Stacks - `.vstack` - flexbox with column direction; - `.hstack` - flexbox with row direction; ## Stretched link `.stretched-link` - class for link which makes containing block clickable. ```html <div> <span>hey</span> <a class="stretched-link" href="#"> link </a> </div> ``` Here, div element becomes clickable. ## Text truncation For long content sometimes we need to cut it. In CSS we use `text-overflow: ellipsis; overflow: hidden; white-space: nowrap;` rules which results in **`.text-truncate`** bootstrap class: ```html <span class='text-truncate' style='width:100px;'> Contrasting text color to background colory </span> //results to 'Contrast...' ``` ## Visually hidden - `.visually-hidden` - hide an element visually while allowing it to stay exposed to assistive technologies. - `.visually-hidden-focusable` - visually hide and element while display when focused (by keyboard-only user).

[Row](#row) 5. [Column](#column) ## Breakpoints **Breakpoints** - customizable widths that makes the layout responsive. Default breakpoints can be found in `scss/_variables.css`: ```scss $grid-breakpoints: ( xs: 0, sm: 576px, md: 768px, lg: 992px, xl: 1200px, xxl: 1400px ); ``` Usually, to simply divide mobile and desktop screens **md** breakpoint is used. ## Containers **Containers** are the basic elements in Bootstrap grid. The basic CSS representation of container's classes: ```css width: 100%; padding-right: 0.75rem; padding-left: 0.75rem; margin-right: auto; margin-left: auto; ``` > You can find all CSS rules for bootstrap [here](https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/blob/main/dist/css). Types of containers: - `.container`, where `max-width` is set at each responsive breakpoints. - `.container-{breakpoint}` - responsive container, where `width` is equal to `100%` until the specified breakpoint, after that `width` equals to corresponding width values at higher breakpoints. - `.container-fluid`, where `width: 100%` at all breakpoints. Bootstrap's values for containers' `width` and `max-width` can be found in `scss/_variables.css` also: ```scss $container-max-widths: ( sm: 540px, md: 720px, lg: 960px, xl: 1140px, xxl: 1320px ); ``` ## Grid Bootstrap's grid consists of bootstrap's classes like `.container`, `.row`, `.col`: ```html <div class="container"> <div class="row"> <div class="col">1</div> <div class="col">2</div> <div class="col">3</div> </div> </div> ``` Here, we built a grid with one row and 3 columns, where: - container is flexible; - its' `max-width` is set to the corresponding value at each breakpoint; - columns have equal width. Features of bootstrap's grid: - rows are wrapped around columns; - there are 12 template columns available per row ## Row Class `.row` include these CSS rules: ```css display: flex; flex-wrap: wrap; ``` We can indicate number of columns per row with `.row-cols-{number-of-columns}` instead of applying `col-{number}` on individual columns. The following code makes the same result: ```html <div class="row"> <div class="col-6">item 1</div> <div class="col-6">item 2</div> <div class="col-6">item 3</div> <div class="col-6">item 4</div> </div> <div class="row row-cols-2"> <div class="col">item1</div> <div class="col">item2</div> <div class="col">item3</div> <div class="col">item4</div> </div> ``` ## Column Thus, to equally distribute width of the container we just use `.col` class. What should be used if we need column with different width? - `.col-auto` - width of column is based on the width of the content. - `.col-{number}` - how many template columns can be occupied by the element. If sum of column numbers exceeds 12, then extra columns will wrap onto a new line. - `.col-breakpoint` - this class for a columns allows arrangement of columns to start out vertical and become horizontal, when viewport's width is bigger than the breakpoint. We can use `-auto` and `-{number}` with this class also. Thus, for grids that are the same for any devices we can just use `.col` and `.col-*`. If we want "stacked to horizontal" behaviour `.col-breakpoint-*` comes to light. We can use a combination of classes for each column: ```html <div class="col-3 col-md-6"> Column </div> ``` This element will occupy 3 template columns until the viewport's width increases to md(768px), then it will occupy 6 template columns. ```html <div class="col-sm-6 col-md-5 col-lg-6"> Column 1 </div> <div class="col-sm-6 col-md-5 col-lg-6"> Column 2 </div> ``` This elements will be positioned in stack until the viewport width becomes larger than sm(576px), then each column will occupy 6 template columns until the viewport width reaches md(768px) then - 5 template columns and once viewport width reaches lg(992px) - again 6 template columns ### Columns alignment inside row Since `.row` is a flexbox we can align elements inside it easily. #### Vertically We can set these classes on `.row` element to align columns: - `align-items-start` - `align-items-center` - `align-items-end` To align a `.column` element individually we set these classes: - `align-self-start` - `align-self-center` - `align-self-end` #### Horizontally Apply these classes on `.row` element: - `justify-content-start` - `justify-content-center` - `justify-content-end` - `justify-content-between` - the first and the last column are placed at edges. The left space is evenly distributed. - `justify-content-evenly` - the space is distributed evenly. - `justify-content-around` - the space before the first and last column equals half of space between each pair of adjacent columns. ### Offseting columns - `.offset-{number}` - how many template columns we need to omit before starting column; - `.offset-{breakpoint}-{number}` - how many template columns we need to omit before starting column after reaching breakpoint.

What is Bootstrap? If you haven't heard about CSS frameworks, then imagine that you don't have to create styles with CSS, you just use already existing classes and there is no need to puzzle over responsive design. It will certainly facilitate and accelerate development of the webpage. Alongside with **Bootstrap** there are various other CSS frameworks like **Tailwind, Bulma, Foundation**, but Bootstrap is a leader of them according to [statistics](https://w3techs.com/technologies/overview/css_framework). This series is dedicated to Bootstrap v5.3. ## Table of contents 1. [Installation](#installation) 2. [Global style](#global-style) 3. [Bootstrap variables](#bootstrap-variables) ## Installation There are three ways to start building projects with Bootstrap: - Install via package manager: `npm install bootstrap` and then set link for needed CSS Bootstrap file in html: ```html <head> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="./node_modules/bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css"> </head> ``` The difference between `bootstrap.min.css` and `bootstrap.css` is that original version is more readable while minified one's size is less since all whitespace and other extra characters are removed. If you want to use Boostrap Javascript, you should include it in script file: ```javascript const bootstrap = require('bootstrap'); ``` However, we should remember that Bootstrap Javascript unlike CSS is [not fully compatible with JavaScript frameworks](https://getbootstrap.com/docs/5.3/getting-started/javascript/#usage-with-javascript-frameworks). - Include cdn Bootstrap link in html file: ```html <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1"> <title>Bootstrap demo</title> <link href="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/bootstrap@5.3.3/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet" integrity="sha384-QWTKZyjpPEjISv5WaRU9OFeRpok6YctnYmDr5pNlyT2bRjXh0JMhjY6hW+ALEwIH" crossorigin="anonymous"> </head> <body> <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/bootstrap@5.0.2/dist/js/bootstrap.bundle.min.js" integrity="sha384-MrcW6ZMFYlzcLA8Nl+NtUVF0sA7MsXsP1UyJoMp4YLEuNSfAP+JcXn/tWtIaxVXM" crossorigin="anonymous"></script> </body> ``` - Download the source code from [https://getbootstrap.com/](https://getbootstrap.com/) ### Installation in React project with a module bundler According to [Usage with JavaScript frameworks](https://getbootstrap.com/docs/5.3/getting-started/javascript/#usage-with-javascript-frameworks) Bootstrap JavaScript is not fully compatible with React: "Both Bootstrap and the framework may attempt to mutate the same DOM element, resulting in bugs like dropdowns that are stuck in the “open” position". Thus, it's better to use a framework-specific package instead of the Bootstrap JavaScript. ```bash npm i react-bootstrap bootstrap ``` Also, we need library Sass to bundle Bootstrap's CSS: ```bash npm i -D sass ``` Then, we should import Bootstrap CSS library in root module. For example, if the project built with Vite, it's `src/main.jsx`: ```javascript // Bootstrap CSS import "bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css"; ``` As for `react-bootstrap`, we should just import components like: ```javascript import Button from 'react-bootstrap/Button'; // or less ideally import { Button } from 'react-bootstrap'; ``` ## Global style Bootstrap's global style has tendency towards normalization of cross browser styles. Some important style to mention: - `box-sizing: border-box` - this allows to include padding and border size into element width; - `font-family` is set to system font stack; - all heading elements don't have `margin-top` and `margin-bottom: .5rem`; - paragraph elements don't have `margin-top` either and `margin-bottom: 1rem`; - links change color on `:hover`, but don't on `:visisted`; - horizontal rules `<hr>` have `opacity: .25`; - all lists don't have `margin-top`, 'padding-left' and have `margin-bottom: 1rem`; - `<textarea>` is resizable only vertically; - `<button>` has `cursor: pointer` if not disabled. ## Bootstrap variables Bootstrap sets some CSS variables, which we can use. All Bootstrap variables are prefixed with **bs-** to avoid conflicts with other style. To see a list of root variables to use visit [https://getbootstrap.com/docs/5.3/customize/css-variables/#root-variables](https://getbootstrap.com/docs/5.3/customize/css-variables/#root-variables)

Security Research of BitPower Loop BitPower Loop is a decentralized lending platform based on blockchain technology, dedicated to providing users with safe, transparent and efficient financial services. Its core security comes from multi-level technical measures and mechanism design, which ensures the robust operation of the system and the security of user funds. This article will introduce the security of BitPower Loop in detail from five aspects: smart contract security, decentralized management, data and transaction security, fund security and risk control mechanism. 1. Smart Contract Security Smart contracts are the core components of BitPower Loop, and their codes must undergo strict security audits before deployment. These audits are usually conducted by third-party independent security companies to ensure that there are no vulnerabilities or malicious code in the contract. In addition, the immutability of smart contracts means that once deployed, no one (including the development team) can modify its rules and logic, which fundamentally eliminates the possibility of malicious operations. All operations are automatically executed by smart contracts, avoiding the risk of human intervention and ensuring the fairness and consistency of system operation. 2. Decentralized Management BitPower Loop eliminates the risks brought by single point failures and central control through decentralized management. The system has no central management agency or owner, and all transactions and operations are jointly verified and recorded by blockchain nodes distributed around the world. This decentralized structure not only improves the system's anti-attack capabilities, but also enhances transparency. Users can publicly view all transaction records, which increases trust in the system. 3. Data and transaction security BitPower Loop uses advanced encryption technology to protect users' data and transaction information. All data is encrypted during transmission and storage to prevent unauthorized access and data leakage. The consensus mechanism of the blockchain ensures the validity and immutability of each transaction, eliminating the possibility of double payment and forged transactions. In addition, the automated execution of smart contracts also avoids delays and errors caused by human operations, ensuring the real-time and accuracy of transactions. 4. Fund security The secure storage of user funds is an important feature of BitPower Loop. Funds are stored on the blockchain through smart contracts and maintained by nodes across the entire network. Distributed storage avoids the risk of fund theft caused by centralized storage. In addition, the user's investment returns and shared commissions are automatically allocated to the user's wallet address by the smart contract after the conditions are met, ensuring the timely and accurate arrival of funds. 5. Risk Control Mechanism BitPower Loop effectively manages lending risks by setting collateral factors and liquidation mechanisms. The collateral factors are independently set according to market liquidity and asset value fluctuations to ensure system stability and lending security. When the value of the borrower's assets falls below a certain threshold, the liquidation mechanism is automatically triggered, ensuring the repayment of the borrower's debt and protecting the interests of the fund provider. In addition, the immutability and automatic execution characteristics of smart contracts further enhance the security and reliability of the system. Conclusion BitPower Loop achieves high security and stability through multi-level security measures and mechanism design. Its smart contracts are strictly audited and immutable, decentralized management eliminates single point failure risks, advanced encryption technology protects data and transaction security, distributed storage ensures fund security, and risk control mechanisms manage lending risks. These security features together build a reliable decentralized financial platform that provides users with secure, transparent and efficient financial services.

webdev, beginners, programming, php
As a follow-up to creating new notes using forms and request methods, we will now explore how to edit and update existing notes in the database using the PATCH request method. When a user wants to edit a note, we need to provide a way for them to access the edit screen. This is where the edit button comes in. ## Adding an Edit Button First, we need to add an edit button below the note on the single note screen in the `show.view.php` by removing the delete button code from the file. This button will move the user to the edit screen. ```php <footer class="mt-6"> <a href="/note/edit?id=<?= $note['id'] ?>" class="inline-flex justify-center rounded-md border border-transparent bg-gray-500 py-2 px-4 text-sm font-medium text-white shadow-sm hover:bg-indigo-700 focus:outline-none focus:ring-2 focus:ring-indigo-500 focus:ring-offset-2">Edit</a> </footer> ``` The edit button is placed in the footer section of the note display page. When clicked, it redirects the user to the edit screen, passing the note ID as a parameter in the URL. ## Editing Notes The `edit.php` file controls the editing process. It retrieves the note from the database and authorizes the user to edit the note. If the user is authorized, the edit screen is displayed, allowing the user to make changes to the note. ```php <?php use Core\App; use Core\Database; $db = App::resolve(Database::class); $currentUserId = 1; $note = $db->query('select * from notes where id = :id', [ 'id' => $_GET['id'] ])->findOrFail(); authorize($note['user_id'] === $currentUserId); view("notes/edit.view.php", [ 'heading' => 'Edit Note', 'errors' => [], 'note' => $note ]); ``` The `edit.php` file uses the `Database` class to retrieve the note from the database. It then checks if the user is authorized to edit the note by comparing the user_id with the currentuserID. If authorized, the edit screen is displayed. ## Edit Note View The `edit.view.php` file contains the code to display the note body for editing, with two buttons: Update and Cancel. - Update button: submits the updated note to the server and store it in database - Cancel button: cancels the editing process and redirects the user back to the notes screen. ```php <label for="body" class="block text-sm font-medium text-gray-700">Body</label> <div class="mt-1"> <textarea id="body" name="body" rows="3" class="mt-1 block w-full rounded-md border-gray-300 shadow-sm focus:border-indigo-500 focus:ring-indigo-500 sm:text-sm" placeholder="Here's an idea for a note..."><?= $note['body'] ?></textarea> <?php if (isset($errors['body'])) : ?> <p class="text-red-500 text-xs mt-2"><?= $errors['body'] ?></p> <?php endif; ?> </div> <div class="bg-gray-50 px-4 py-3 text-right sm:px-6 flex gap-x-4 justify-end items-center"> <button type="button" class="text-red-500 mr-auto" onclick="document.querySelector('#delete-form').submit()">Delete</button> <a href="/notes" class="inline-flex justify-center rounded-md border border-transparent bg-gray-500 py-2 px-4 text-sm font-medium text-white shadow-sm hover:bg-indigo-700 focus:outline-none focus:ring-2 focus:ring-indigo-500 focus:ring-offset-2">Cancel</a> <button type="submit" class="inline-flex justify-center rounded-md border border-transparent bg-indigo-600 py-2 px-4 text-sm font-medium text-white shadow-sm hover:bg-indigo-700 focus:outline-none focus:ring-2 focus:ring-indigo-500 focus:ring-offset-2">Update</button> </div> ``` The edit note view displays the note body in a textarea, allowing the user to make changes. The update button submits the updated note to the server and store it in database. ## Updating Notes To update a note, we need to create a new file named `update.php` that checks the validation of the note and also checks the authorization of the user. This file will only allow authorized users to view and edit notes that are already present in the database. ```php <?php use Core\App; use Core\Database; use Core\Validator; $db = App::resolve(Database::class); $currentUserId = 1; // find the corresponding note $note = $db->query('select * from notes where id = :id', [ 'id' => $_POST['id'] ])->findOrFail(); // Check authorization authorize($note['user_id'] === $currentUserId); // Check validation $errors = []; if (!Validator::string($_POST['body'], 1, 100000)) { $errors['body'] = 'A body of no more than 1,000 characters is required.'; } // if no validation errors, then update if (count($errors)) { return view('notes/edit.view.php', [ 'heading' => 'Edit Note', 'errors' => $errors, 'note' => $note ]); } $db->query('update notes set body = :body where id = :id', [ 'id' => $_POST['id'], 'body' => $_POST['body'] ]); // redirect the user header('location: /notes'); die(); ``` ## Adding Routes To enable the editing and updating of notes, we need to add the following routes in route.php: ```php $router->get('/note/edit', 'controllers/notes/edit.php'); $router->patch('/note', 'controllers/notes/update.php'); ``` These routes will enable the editing and updating of notes using the PATCH request method. ## How it Works When a user wants to edit a note, the user will be taken to the edit screen where user can make changes to the note. When a user submit changes, the `update.php` file will be called. This file will check if the user is authorized to edit the note and if the validation of the note is correct. If both checks pass, the note will be updated in the database and the user will be redirected back to the notes screen. If either check fails, the user will be redirected back to the edit screen with error messages. By following these steps a user can easily edit and update the note using PATCH request method. I hope that you have clearly understood it.

django, python
Modern security techniques like passwordless authentication improve user experience by doing away with the necessity for conventional passwords. By using this technique, the likelihood of password-related vulnerabilities including reused passwords, brute force assaults, and phishing is decreased. We will go into great length about creating passwordless authentication in Django in this post, along with best practices and comprehensive code samples to guarantee a safe and easy-to-use authentication system. Introduction to Passwordless Authentication in Django It is possible for users to log in without a password thanks to passwordless authentication. Alternatively, they use biometrics, one-time passwords (OTPs), or magic links for authentication. This tutorial will concentrate on setting up magic link authentication in Django, which uses the user's email address to deliver a one-of-a-kind, time-limited link for authentication. Why Choose Passwordless Authentication? Enhanced Security: Eliminates risks associated with password storage and transmission. Improved User Experience: Simplifies the login process by removing the need to remember passwords. Reduced Password Management: Decreases the burden of password resets and management for both users and administrators. Setting Up Django for Passwordless Authentication Prerequisites Before we start, ensure you have the following: Python installed (version 3.6+) Django installed (version 3.0+) An email service setup for sending authentication links Project Setup Create a new Django project and application: ``` django-admin startproject passwordless_auth cd passwordless_auth django-admin startapp authentication ``` Add the authentication app to your project's INSTALLED_APPS in settings.py: ``` INSTALLED_APPS = [ ... 'authentication', ] ``` Configure Email Backend Configure your email backend in settings.py to enable sending emails. For development purposes, you can use the console email backend, which prints emails to the console. For production, configure an actual email service provider. ``` # For development EMAIL_BACKEND = 'django.core.mail.backends.console.EmailBackend' # For production (example with SMTP) EMAIL_BACKEND = 'django.core.mail.backends.smtp.EmailBackend' EMAIL_HOST = 'smtp.example.com' EMAIL_PORT = 587 EMAIL_USE_TLS = True EMAIL_HOST_USER = 'your-email@example.com' EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = 'your-email-password' ``` Create the User Model Use Django's default user model or create a custom user model if you need additional fields. For this example, we'll use the default user model. Create the Authentication View In the authentication app, create a view to handle the authentication process. This view will generate and send a magic link to the user's email address. ``` # authentication/views.py from django.contrib.auth import get_user_model from django.contrib.sites.shortcuts import get_current_site from django.shortcuts import render, redirect from django.utils.http import urlsafe_base64_encode, urlsafe_base64_decode from django.utils.encoding import force_bytes, force_text from django.template.loader import render_to_string from django.core.mail import send_mail from django.urls import reverse from django.http import HttpResponse from django.utils.crypto import get_random_string User = get_user_model() def send_magic_link(request): if request.method == 'POST': email = request.POST.get('email') user = User.objects.filter(email=email).first() if user: token = get_random_string(32) user.profile.magic_token = token user.profile.save() current_site = get_current_site(request) mail_subject = 'Your magic login link' message = render_to_string('authentication/magic_link_email.html', { 'user': user, 'domain': current_site.domain, 'uid': urlsafe_base64_encode(force_bytes(user.pk)), 'token': token, }) send_mail(mail_subject, message, 'no-reply@example.com', [email]) return HttpResponse('A magic link has been sent to your email.') return render(request, 'authentication/send_magic_link.html') ``` Create the Profile Model Extend the user model with a profile model to store the magic token. ``` # authentication/models.py from django.contrib.auth.models import User from django.db import models class Profile(models.Model): user = models.OneToOneField(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE) magic_token = models.CharField(max_length=64, blank=True, null=True) def __str__(self): return self.user.username ``` Create the Authentication Token Verification View Create a view to verify the token and authenticate the user. ``` # authentication/views.py from django.contrib.auth import login def verify_magic_link(request, uidb64, token): try: uid = force_text(urlsafe_base64_decode(uidb64)) user = User.objects.get(pk=uid) except (TypeError, ValueError, OverflowError, User.DoesNotExist): user = None if user is not None and user.profile.magic_token == token: user.profile.magic_token = None user.profile.save() login(request, user) return redirect('home') else: return HttpResponse('Invalid or expired link') ``` Create Templates Create templates for sending the magic link and for the email content. send_magic_link.html ``` <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>Send Magic Link</title> </head> <body> <h1>Send Magic Link</h1> <form method="post"> {% csrf_token %} <label for="email">Email:</label> <input type="email" name="email" id="email" required> <button type="submit">Send Magic Link</button> </form> </body> </html> ``` magic_link_email.html ``` <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>Magic Link Login</title> </head> <body> <p>Hi {{ user.username }},</p> <p>Click the link below to log in:</p> <a href="http://{{ domain }}{% url 'verify_magic_link' uid=uid token=token %}">Login</a> </body> </html> ``` Create URLs Define URLs for the authentication views. ``` # authentication/urls.py from django.urls import path from .views import send_magic_link, verify_magic_link urlpatterns = [ path('send-magic-link/', send_magic_link, name='send_magic_link'), path('verify-magic-link/<uidb64>/<token>/', verify_magic_link, name='verify_magic_link'), ] ``` Include the authentication URLs in the main project URLs. ``` # passwordless_auth/urls.py from django.contrib import admin from django.urls import path, include urlpatterns = [ path('admin/', admin.site.urls), path('auth/', include('authentication.urls')), ] ``` Final Touches To complete the setup, make sure you migrate the database to create the necessary tables. ``` python manage.py makemigrations python manage.py migrate ``` Create an admin user to manage the application. python manage.py createsuperuser Testing the Implementation Start the Development Server: Run the Django development server. python manage.py runserver Access the Magic Link Form: Open your browser and navigate to http://localhost:8000/auth/send-magic-link/. Enter an email address associated with a user account in your database. Check the Email: For development, the email will be printed in the console. In a production setup, check the user's email inbox. Click the Magic Link: Click the link in the email to log in. Security Considerations Token Expiration: Implement token expiration to ensure that links are only valid for a limited time. ``` from datetime import timedelta from django.utils import timezone class Profile(models.Model): user = models.OneToOneField(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE) magic_token = models.CharField(max_length=64, blank=True, null=True) token_created_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True) def is_token_expired(self): return self.token_created_at < timezone.now() - timedelta(minutes=15) ``` Conclusion An easier-to-use and safer option to conventional password-based authentication is passwordless authentication. You may improve your application's security and give users an easy way to log in by using Django's magic link authentication feature.

https://dev.to/doublex/beware-of-base-rate-fallacy-4ogd
Let's say some scholars have done a research on the relationship between career advancement and overconfidence/underconfidence(with respect to the [Dunning-Kruger effect](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunning%E2%80%93Kruger_effect) in this setup) in country A, and the result is as follows: **Out of all those being promoted in the workplace to some extents in country A, 80% and 20% of them are mostly overconfident and underconfident respectively.** Then, some media across the globe uses this result to claim the following: **Of every other aspect being supposedly equal, being mostly overconfident is generally more advantageous to our career than being mostly underconfident in country A.** Assuming that the test is indeed fair and reproducible in country A with good sampling, and career advancement, overconfident as well as underconfident are all well-defined and carefully examined(maybe even using a double-blinded study), will you just believe in what those media suggested? At the very least, if you're already aware of the [base rate fallacy](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base_rate_fallacy), you probably won't jump to conclusions so easily, because you'll want to know the following 2 ratios as well: 1. The ratio between the mostly overconfident and underconfident people in country A 2. The ratio between those advancing well in their careers and those who don't in country A (Strictly speaking, the 2nd ratio doesn't matter much in this fallacy, but knowing this ratio can make the numbers even clearer) For example, if the ratio between the overconfident and underconfident people in country A is 9:1, and that between those advancing well in their careers and those who don't is 19:1, then the whole experiment actually points to the opposite result - **Being underconfident is indeed better for the career of those in country A.** It's because in the overconfident group, only (1 / 19)[8 / (8 + 2)] / [9 / (9 + 1)] = 0.05(0.8 / 0.9) = 4.444...% are advancing well in their careers, while that in the underconfident group is (1 / 19)[2 / (8 + 2)] / [1 / (9 + 1)] = 0.05(0.2 / 0.1) = 10%, which is 10% / 4.444...% = 2.25 times of the former. Although I don't think any of you will fall into the base rate fallacy so easily, time and again I've seen some media citing some psychological research results without much contexts, and then just use those results to make some likely dubious claims. While I don't think those psychologists themselves will ever fall into such fallacies, at least not unknowingly, I just sense an urge to write this article, perhaps because I start to grow tired of reading how those media habitually cite more and more of such psychological researches this way. Actually, the example in this article is already much better than what I've read countless times, because the majority of what what I've read won't even specify that the result is only known to generally apply to career advancement in country A(even if it might do have wider applications) with all other aspects being equal, since they'll instead make claims like this: **Being overconfident will definitely make you more successful then being underconfident.** However, if you can spot the base rate fallacy right away, you should be able to figure the rest without much trouble, like "success isn't just about career advancement", "career advancement isn't just about confidence", "what applies to country A doesn't necessarily apply to the rest of the world", "what generally applies to the majority can have exceptions as the non-negligible minority", so if more and more of the targeting audience are aware of all this over time, maybe the media will gradually change their habits of taking psychological research results out of contexts :)
