Daily Scrum Template

When taking part of a Daily Scrum as Scrum Master, I find it handy to take notes. This makes sure I can hand over the role, if need be. It also means I don't have to rememeber everything as I can look things up in my notes later.

Below is the structure I use as format or "template" for taking notes.

Some things of importance:

This gist provides 3 different data representations of Emoji Popularity per Year, from 2015 to 2021.

As CSV
As JSON, with Emoji listed per number
As JSON, with Emoji listed per year in an array
As JSON, with Emoji listed per year in an weighted object (an object with a value)

The orignal data and source reference can be found at: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1kEaoJ_RR4DiChR9iYEBZOG8tmnVUlWAVLs_LHakAjJI/

For a project at my employers we are working with the PHP Easy RDF library.

In order to help other developers understand how to do some basic things in Easy RDF, I have created an example that shows how to read a RDF file, find a node, remove that node or a property from that node and write the result back to the file, using Flysystem.

The Turtle document used in this example is an edited version of the test fixture used in the Solid Link Metadata Tests Suite.

A static HTML has been provided, as well as some quick-and-dirty PHP with a live example (also used to generate the HTML output).

Local Web Worker

Under normal circumstances, a Web Worker should be passed a URL of the script to execute. However, a local function can also be used

This is done by converting a function to a string, converting that string to a Blob, and converting that Blob to an Object URL.

Code

The code to do this would look a bit like this:

RoyalUr.net dice randomness distribution

Code for a CodePen that throws the dice from RoyalUr.net a given number of times and shows how the result matches the expected distribution of randomness.
