  • Programming on the Phone
    Programming on the phone Programming on the phone why do people ask such a question? People are increasingly starting to ask a question, how is programming on the phone? Maybe convenient or not? Probably every beginner programmer who seeks knowledge and wants to program everywhere and always asked himself all these questions. Of course, this was influenced by such a rapid development of technology. For a short period of time, typewriters were replaced by laptops and PCs that can solve very complex problems. If we look at the development of phones in general, they also began to develop very quickly. At first, touch phones were not taken as they should, but now such a smartphone is an integral part of every person. This is the answer to the question: “Programming on the phone where do people get such questions and thoughts.” Almost everyone who is somehow familiar with programming will say that programming on Android or Apple smartphones is extremely inconvenient and unnecessary. • Math homework • Java homework • Python homework • C/C++ assignment They will be partly right, but this is still possible and let's figure out how and why? Programming on the phone will we figure it out? Programming on the phone is a long and complicated process, which does not bring as much pleasure and inspiration as with the same programming on a PC or laptop. However, it is not rare that it is not possible to take a laptop with you, and you need to complete the task or just want to program. In such cases, the phone can help out.

Over the intervening six years, accelerated by the cloud and a growing comfort with outsourcing human activates to machines, software has become ubiquitous. With examples like Amazon displacing traditional retailers or a proprietary “Today's large John Deere tractors have application for player evaluation named “Carmine” helping to lead the Boston Red Sox more lines of code than early space to three titles since 2004, the power of software cannot be understated. shuttles.” Samuel Allen (CEO, Deere & Company) ◼ Software is not only disrupting business models in place for centuries (or 86 years of baseball futility), but it also is enabling incumbent vendors across disparate industries to improve product offerings, drive deeper engagement with customers and optimize selling and marketing efforts. Most industries (financial services, retail, entertainment, healthcare) and large organizations now derive a great deal of their competitive differentiation from software. As Andreessen wrote, “the days when a car aficionado could repair his or her own car are long past, due primarily to the high software “Software is like entropy.

Kallithea is similar in some respects to GitHub or Bitbucket, however Kallithea can be run as standalone hosted application on your own server. It is open-source and focuses more on providing a customised, self-administered interface for Mercurial and Git repositories. Kallithea works on Unix-like systems and Windows. Kallithea was forked from RhodeCode in July 2014 and has been heavily modified. 1.1.2 Installation Kallithea requires Python 3 and it is recommended to install it in a virtualenv. Official releases of Kallithea can be installed with: pip install kallithea The development repository is kept very stable and used in production by the developers – you can do the same. Please visit https://docs.kallithea-scm.org/en/latest/installation.html for more details. There is also an experimental Puppet module for installing and setting up Kallithea. Currently, only basic functionality is provided, but it is still enough to get up and running quickly, especially for people without Python background.

  • Github Business Model Analysis ELU 605: Écologie Du Logiciel
    GitHub Business Model Analysis ELU 605: Écologie du Logiciel Fred Gonsalves, Jie Song June 17, 2018 1 Introduction The purpose of this paper is to serve as a continuation of our previous study on the intellectual property of GitHub, the largest web-based code sharing platform in the world. Since the writing of the previous paper, GitHub has officially been purchased by Microsoft for $7.5 billion [1] and this paper will seek to understand the business model that made GitHub attractive enough of a venture for such a sale to happen. As a quick introduction, let us discuss who GitHub is. Table 1 below gives us some of the latest statistics concerning GitHub. GitHub was founded in 2007 by three partners - Chris Wanstrath, Tom Preston-Werner, and P. J. Hyett. It was written in Ruby and was the first code sharing plat- form to provide distributed version control (using Git), as opposed to a centralized version control system being offered by major competitors at the time SourceForge, GoogleCode, and CodePlex. This meant that developers could clone an entire instance of a project and merge modifications much easier than ever before. GitHub’s popularity grew exponentially fast as evidenced by Fig- ure1. In addition to using Git, GitHub is also popular today for a number of other services it provides that are discussed in the following section. Number of users (2017) 24 million Number of total organizations (2017) 1.5 million Number of active repositories (since Sep, 2016) 13 million Number of total monthly visitors (2015) 32 million Table 1: GitHub in numbers [2].
