How funny. When I was around 10 my mother sent my sister and me to a 10 finger typing class. We had to practice at home so I started retyping the first Harry Potter novel which was my favourite book during that time. It was after 100 or 200 pages when I left everyone I know behind in terms of speed and accuracy. Every time I switch my keyboard I am doing a lite version of and retype only a couple of pages in order to adjust my muscles to the new layout.


I wanted to sign up as a reviewer but it seems like one needs a linkedin account to do so. Since I don't have a linkedin account it seems like there is no other chance?


Me too. Hopefully someone working for the company sees this and has some sway to remove the requirement.


Sadly this returns a 404 for me (located in Germany)


It does for me too (located in the UK)

Perhaps the URL should be https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-somerset-57808517


Thanks, your URL works for me too (in the US).


Well, as with everything:

Before using a library blindly 1. Ask yourself which problem you want to solve 2. Educate yourself 3. Does the library solve you problem 4. Use with caution 5. Learn from you mistakes :D


Those are great steps to follow for yourself and to reach new members of your team :)

I still hold that sparing use is important.

The overhead for steps before your controller action method can often be a significant portion of the overall response time.

I really like the .contain_exactly() matcher for this purpose as well :)


Human ears can't hear ultrasound. What about other animals[1] on this planet? [1]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultrasound#Animals


They noted dogs in the write-up so I assume they are using extremely high frequencies far beyond what animals can hear.
