It explains using dynamic forms so requesters can provide variables and run prepared scripts, while combining data from APIs and databases and producing downloadable reports. ### Source excerpt На момент написания этой статьи в компании Cardsmobile, которая разрабатывает мобильное приложение "Кошелёк", работает 195 человек: 8 аналитиков и 187 потенциальных заказчиков аналитиков. Мы делаем приложение для конечных пользователей, а также работаем с ритейлом, банками, брендами и другими партнерами. Долгое время работа аналитика в Кошельке состояла не только из исследований поведения пользователя, но и из различных выгрузок, типовых анализов для партнеров и прогнозов для потенциальных клиентов. Конечно, дашборды сильно спасали нам жизнь и позволяли всей компании следить за показателями продукта. Но мы всё ещё тратили время на остальную текучку, и с ростом команды (заказчиков) и бизнеса упёрлись: Ad-hoc задач стало слишком много, а исследования, желание развиваться и светлое будущее простаивали в отсутствие у нас времени.

It explains the tool's note categories, date-based storage, and commands for adding, viewing, and listing notes over time. ### Source excerpt Over the past few years I have been participating in Stand-up meetings and it took me some time to find a convenient and effective way for keeping notes about what I was doing every day. I needed to be able to: keep notes on the issues I worked on, the meetings I participated in and stuff that blocked my work easily access these notes based on their date have an overview of what I did for example the last week all of the above from inside a terminal without having to manually structure and update a single document having to manually create a document for each day stup I created stup (the name derives from stand-up), an opensource CLI tool that deals with these issues and allows to easily save, access and organize my notes. The source code of the project is available on GitHub here. Usage examples Find below some examples showing the most important usage of stup.

The process reduced the account from roughly 270 repositories to 54 and led to a webhook that responds to new issues and pull requests on unmaintained repositories. ### Source excerpt This past weekend I decided I need to clean up my GitHub profile. In this post I'll write about why I cleaned everything up and also how I did, as well as some initial results. ## News, Readables, Viewables DevFeed: [News, Readables, Viewables]() Original publisher: [Read original article]() Author: Bruce Eckel Published: 2015-08-06T00:00:00Z Content type: article Language: en Sources: [Bruce Eckel - Computing Thoughts]() Topics: [Elm](), [Programming language](), [Programming](), [opensource]() Tags: [conference](), [elm](), [keynote](), [news](), [opensource](), [philosophy](), [programming](), [programming-language]() ### AI overview A roundup of programming-related items, including an upcoming opening keynote at the JET conference, an Opensource.com interview, discussion of Elm's language design philosophy, Kent Beck's closing keynote, and Esther Derby's Six Rules for Change. ### Source excerpt I will be giving the opening keynote at the JET conference in Minsk, Belarus on September 28.

You will have noticed the long delay since my last report, and may be wondering what has happened. I will try to explain. The last report was published on the 24th, right before christmas eve, when my vacation started. I took my vacation so that I could rest, clear my head, and regain energy so that I could resume my work in January at full speed. Over the christmas days, I had time for resting, games, hobbies, and family, and this gave me a lot of time to think. ## OpenSourcing my blog again DevFeed: [OpenSourcing my blog again]() Original publisher: [Read original article]() Author: Carlos Alexandro Becker Published: 2015-01-18T00:00:00Z Content type: opinion Language: en Sources: [Carlos Becker]() Topics: [opensource](), [Hugo](), [Jekyll]() Tags: [blog](), [hugo](), [jekyll](), [opensource]() ### AI overview The author is reopening their open-source blog after moving it from Jekyll to Hugo.

People liked it and forked it tons of times, but they never changed some stuff (disqus, analytics). ## ReactOS fixes merged-folder usage and investigates a crash when pasting files DevFeed: [ReactOS fixes merged-folder usage and investigates a crash when pasting files]() Original publisher: [Read original article]() Published: 2014-12-07T00:00:00Z Content type: article Language: en Sources: [Front Page on ReactOS Website]() Topics: [ReactOS](), [opensource](), [Windows]() Tags: [classes](), [crash](), [files](), [free](), [net-11](), [open-source](), [opensource](), [os](), [react](), [reactos](), [win32](), [winapi](), [windows]() ### AI overview A ReactOS developer describes returning to work on merged-folder usage after investigating a crash when pasting files. The article explains that Windows classes were not working because the filtering callback's return values were misunderstood: S_FALSE indicates that an item is shown, while S_OK indicates that it should be filtered away. ### Source excerpt Hello everyone, If you remember from last week, my top priority was to investigate the crash when pasting files, but because Giannis insisted a bit that I should fix the merged folders usage so that the windows classes can be used instead of our own, I went back to the merged folders, and started looking at why the windows classes didn't work. The first thing I had to fix was a misunderstanding of the return value of the filtering callback, which returns S_FALSE if the item is shown, and S_OK if the item has to be filtered away. ## Post-Incrementing the C DevFeed: [Post-Incrementing the C]() Original publisher: [Read original article]() Published: 2014-11-10T00:00:00Z Content type: article Language: en Sources: [Front Page on ReactOS Website]() Topics: [ReactOS](), [opensource](), [C]() Tags: [c](), [free](), [open-source](), [opensource](), [os](), [react](), [reactos](), [report](), [win32](), [winapi]() ### AI overview A ReactOS weekly report mentions work completed during the week and refers readers to commit logs and a comment thread for additional details. The supplied evidence does not describe the specific technical changes. ### Source excerpt Hello again, people. Wow so another week has passed, and the whole weekend too. I feel a bit like I was sucked into a temporal distortion, because I can't really tell where all these hours have gone. Heck, I almost forgot to write the report! Thankfully, the cold I spoke about last week, it didn't complicate itself, so I have been able to work over the week. I suppose many of you didn't wait for the surprise and looked at the commit logs, or read the comment thread for the "spoilers". ## ReactOS Development Report: Debugging and Finding Leaks DevFeed: [ReactOS Development Report: Debugging and Finding Leaks]() Original publisher: [Read original article]() Published: 2014-11-03T00:00:00Z Content type: article Language: en Sources: [Front Page on ReactOS Website]() Topics: [ReactOS](), [opensource](), [debugging]() Tags: [debugging](), [free](), [open-source](), [opensource](), [os](), [react](), [reactos](), [win32](), [winapi](), [windows]() ### AI overview A ReactOS team report discusses a busy period of development, ongoing debugging, and the difficulty of finding leaks while investigating the project. ### Source excerpt Hello everyone, and sorry for the delay. I caught a bad cold (that may or may not be complicated with a throat infection -- we'll see) so I was lacking the necessary concentration to write this report earlier. As Z98 said last weekend, it has been some very busy days for all the team. I want to reiterate all the appreciation for the help given by everyone. There is just so much debugging I can do without my head exploding, and finding leaks tends to cross that line. ## View Popups and Unreliable Operations DevFeed: [View Popups and Unreliable Operations]() Original publisher: [Read original article]() Published: 2014-10-11T00:00:00Z Content type: article Language: en Sources: [Front Page on ReactOS Website]() Topics: [ReactOS](), [opensource](), [Windows]() Tags: [audio](), [bugs](), [crash](), [desktop](), [free](), [open-source](), [opensource](), [os](), [react](), [reactos](), [vmware](), [win32](), [winapi](), [windows]() ### AI overview A weekly ReactOS development update describes reviewing older bugs, including an unreproduced issue involving the VMware audio driver, stobject.dll, Explorer, and the desktop taskbar. ### Source excerpt Hello! It's this time of the week again where I have to sit down and try to remember everything I have been doing over the week. I began the week by looking at some older pending bugs. First, I looked at an issue where using the branch with the vmware audio driver installed would crash stobject.dll and because it's loaded into explorer-new, the rest of the desktop and taskbar. I couldn't reproduce this issue, so I moved on. ## ReactOS Joins Open Invention Network DevFeed: [ReactOS Joins Open Invention Network]() Original publisher: [Read original article]() Published: 2014-10-03T00:00:00Z Content type: news Language: en Sources: [Front Page on ReactOS Website]() Topics: [opensource](), [ReactOS](), [Linux]() Tags: [2005](), [code](), [free](), [google](), [ibm](), [linux](), [open](), [open-source](), [opensource](), [os](), [react](), [reactos](), [red-hat](), [win32](), [winapi]() ### AI overview The ReactOS Foundation joined the Open Invention Network, a defensive patent pool established to help protect Linux through shared patent protection. The article presents the decision as ReactOS's contribution to the open-source community. ### Source excerpt The ReactOS Foundation officially joins the Open Invention Network! The Open Invention Network is a shared defensive patent pool with the mission to protect Linux. Launched in 2005, OIN has strong industry support with backing from Google, IBM, NEC, Philips, Red Hat, Sony and SUSE (a business unit of Novell). ReactOS is just a small piece in this big opensource world and even if we're not a Linux project, helping to protect the opensource spirit is, and will always be, a must for us. ## ReactOS Explorer Command-Line Parser Progress Report DevFeed: [ReactOS Explorer Command-Line Parser Progress Report]() Original publisher: [Read original article]() Published: 2014-09-12T00:00:00Z Content type: article Language: en Sources: [Front Page on ReactOS Website]() Topics: [ReactOS](), [Parser](), [Command-line interface](), [opensource]() Tags: [command-line](), [free](), [open-source](), [opensource](), [os](), [react](), [reactos](), [report](), [win32](), [winapi]() ### AI overview A progress report on ReactOS work describes an explorer command-line parser that is working more or less as intended, with some remaining differences from the Windows parser. ### Source excerpt Hello again! When I said last week's report would be short, I was still planning to write a few lines about what I had been doing on the spare time from the university project, but by the time the weekend came I was way too mentally exhausted to actually do it. Then I started refreshing my mind with what I was in the middle of doing, and by Sunday night I had the explorer command line parser working more or less as intended (it still has a few places where it doesn't behave exactly like Windows' parser, but it's close enough for what we need). ## An Incident Analysis as the Second Checkpoint DevFeed: [An Incident Analysis as the Second Checkpoint]() Original publisher: [Read original article]() Published: 2014-09-02T00:00:00Z Content type: opinion Language: en Sources: [Front Page on ReactOS Website]() Topics: [ReactOS](), [Windows](), [opensource]() Tags: [free](), [open-source](), [opensource](), [os](), [react](), [reactos](), [win32](), [winapi](), [windows]() ### AI overview The article recounts a project incident whose analysis was completed later and therefore treated as the second checkpoint toward a broader revelation. It describes an initially uncertain, increasingly concerned response and an unproductive government briefing. ### Source excerpt The incident that ultimately aroused the suspicion of the project technically occurred first but the analysis was concluded afterwards so it was generally treated as the second checkpoint in the road to the revelation. The initial reaction hovered between heavy uncertainty and cautious concern, a concern that only grew over time. The briefing with the various governmental representatives came and went and was as excruciatingly pointless and braindead as Z had presumed. ## A project update on ReactOS DDE server support and university deadlines DevFeed: [A project update on ReactOS DDE server support and university deadlines]() Original publisher: [Read original article]() Published: 2014-08-30T00:00:00Z Content type: opinion Language: en Sources: [Front Page on ReactOS Website]() Topics: [ReactOS](), [opensource]() Tags: [free](), [open-source](), [opensource](), [os](), [react](), [reactos](), [win32](), [winapi]() ### AI overview The author provides a personal update on work related to ReactOS DDE server support while discussing an approaching university project deadline and the remaining documentation work. ### Source excerpt Hello, Everyone! I mentioned last week, that I had started looking at the DDE server support, and it would take a while. What I forgot to mention, is that the deadline for handing over my final project at university is next Friday, and the defense for the project a couple weeks after that. Ideally, if me & the other guys working on the project had done everything on schedule, we'd just be finishing off the documentation and we'd be almost ready, but as projects go, it's always when the deadline looms close that you remember everything you were supposed to have been doing. ## ReactOS as a Long-Term Open-Source Windows Reimplementation Project DevFeed: [ReactOS as a Long-Term Open-Source Windows Reimplementation Project]() Original publisher: [Read original article]() Published: 2014-08-22T00:00:00Z Content type: article Language: en Sources: [Front Page on ReactOS Website]() Topics: [ReactOS](), [opensource](), [Windows]() Tags: [free](), [open-source](), [opensource](), [os](), [react](), [reactos](), [win32](), [winapi](), [windows]() ### AI overview The article presents ReactOS as a free, open-source reimplementation of Windows and characterizes it as a long-term project whose goals have become increasingly ambitious as it has achieved success. ### Source excerpt These days when asked what a moonshot was, most people would respond with blank looks and then ask if it had something to do with the moon. A few more knowledgeable persons might respond that it referred to the Apollo program. Still others would say it referred to any project whose chances of success were low or might take a very long time to show demonstrable success. The Reactive Operator System fell squarely in that third category and it was with some irony that with every success it achieved its future goals became ever loftier. ## Shell Service Objects DevFeed: [Shell Service Objects]() Original publisher: [Read original article]() Published: 2014-08-02T00:00:00Z Content type: article Language: en Sources: [Front Page on ReactOS Website]() Topics: [ReactOS](), [opensource](), [Shell](), [Windows]() Tags: [free](), [open-source](), [opensource](), [os](), [react](), [reactos](), [shell](), [win32](), [winapi](), [windows]() ### AI overview A ReactOS contributor describes returning to a lighter coding task after recovering from a hand injury. The supplied evidence does not explain the implementation or findings related to Shell Service Objects. ### Source excerpt Hello everyone! Long time no see! As some of you will probably know by now, I had a cooking accident, wherein my hand was splashed by very hot olive oil. I will skip the shameful details, but I want to say that for the next 10 days, I was unable to code properly. After those first 10 days, my bandage was replaced by a lighter dressing, which allowed me more mobility in my hand, and I began looking at my TODO list, for something "lighter" to pass the time. ## Merged Folders and undocumented interfaces DevFeed: [Merged Folders and undocumented interfaces]() Original publisher: [Read original article]() Published: 2014-07-12T00:00:00Z Content type: article Language: en Sources: [Front Page on ReactOS Website]() Topics: [ReactOS](), [implementation](), [structure](), [opensource]() Tags: [community](), [complex](), [free](), [implementation](), [list](), [open-source](), [opensource](), [os](), [react](), [reactos](), [structure](), [weekly](), [win32](), [winapi]() ### AI overview A weekly ReactOS development report discusses implementing the largely undocumented CMergedFolder class structure, which was considered too complex for the first phase. The report notes that its classes may contain multiple features that do not fit together cleanly. ### Source excerpt Hello, and welcome to my weekly report. I apologize for not having a report last weekend, so this week's report will be longer than usual. Reading the issues in the community-powered Shell TODO List got me thinking about some issues that I previously thought were too complex for phase 1. Biggest of all, was the implementation of the CMergedFolder class structure. This set of classes is almost completely undocumented, and I suspect it has multiple features that don't really fit together. ## The TODO list, collaborative edition DevFeed: [The TODO list, collaborative edition]() Original publisher: [Read original article]() Published: 2014-06-28T00:00:00Z Content type: article Language: en Sources: [Front Page on ReactOS Website]() Topics: [.NET 11](), [opensource](), [Windows]() Tags: [free](), [open-source](), [opensource](), [os](), [react](), [reactos](), [reports](), [weekly](), [win32](), [winapi]() ### AI overview A weekly status report about ReactOS discusses the project's older known issues and notes that the report may be shorter or different than usual. ### Source excerpt Hello! Welcome back to my weekly status report. I want to finally start writing the reports on Fridays, so it hasn't been that many days since the last report, and there was a holiday in the middle of this week and some craziness you may already be aware of, so this report may end up either shorter than usual, or at least different. Sorry about that! I started the week by looking back at older "known issues". [Next page]()
