  • Using Docker to Assist Q&A Forum Users
    1 Using Docker to Assist Q&A Forum Users Luis Melo, Igor Wiese and Marcelo d’Amorim Abstract—Q&A forums are today a valuable tool to assist developers in programming tasks. Unfortunately, contributions to these forums are often unclear and incomplete. Docker is a container solution that enables software developers to encapsulate an operating environment and could help address reproducibility issues. This paper reports on a feasibility study to evaluate if Docker can help improve reproducibility in Stack Overflow. We started surveying Stack Overflow users to understand their perceptions on the proposal of using Docker to reproduce Stack Overflow posts. Participants were critical and mentioned two important aspects: cost and need. To validate their criticism, we conducted an exploratory study focused on understanding how costly the task of creating containers for posts is for developers. Overall, results indicate that the cost of creating containers is not high, especially due to the fact that dockerfiles are highly similar and small. Based on these findings we developed a tool, dubbed FRISK, to assist developers in creating containers for those posts. We then conducted a user study to evaluate interest of Stack Overflow developers on the tool. We found that, on average, users spent nearly ten minutes interacting with FRISK and that 45.3% of the 563 FRISK sessions we created for existing posts resulted in a successful access to the corresponding web service by the owners of the post. Overall, this paper provides early evidence that the use of Docker in Q&A forums should be encouraged for configuration-related posts.

  • Perl by Example, Third Edition—This Book Is a Superb, Well-Written Programming Book
    Praise for Ellie Quigley’s Books “I picked up a copy of JavaScript by Example over the weekend and wanted to thank you for putting out a book that makes JavaScript easy to understand. I’ve been a developer for several years now and JS has always been the ‘monster under the bed,’ so to speak. Your book has answered a lot of questions I’ve had about the inner workings of JS but was afraid to ask. Now all I need is a book that covers Ajax and Coldfusion. Thanks again for putting together an outstanding book.” —Chris Gomez, Web services manager, Zunch Worldwide, Inc. “I have been reading your UNIX® Shells by Example book, and I must say, it is brilliant. Most other books do not cover all the shells, and when you have to constantly work in an organization that uses tcsh, bash, and korn, it can become very difficult. However, your book has been indispensable to me in learning the various shells and the differences between them…so I thought I’d email you, just to let you know what a great job you have done!” —Farogh-Ahmed Usmani, B.Sc. (Honors), M.Sc., DIC, project consultant (Billing Solutions), Comverse “I have been learning Perl for about two months now; I have a little shell scripting experience but that is it. I first started withLearning Perl by O’Reilly. Good book but lacking on the examples.
