The following is an explanation of Ruby blocks and yield by another Bloc mentor (Adam Louis) who was trying to explain it to one of his students.

On my very first day programming, if someone asked me for "the sum of the numbers from 1 to 10", I'd have written:

puts 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 9 + 10

Easy enough.

Docker Cheat Sheet

NOTE: 534 stars, 106 forks. I love you all. Please contribute tips and edits back to this cheat sheet -- email's will.sargent@gmail.com and you can treat gists like git repositories and send git diffs.

Linux Backup Solutions

I've been looking for the best Linux backup system, and also reading lots of HN comments.

Instead of putting pros and cons of every backup system I'll just list some deal-breakers which would disqualify them.

Also I would like that you, the HN community, would add more deal breakers for these or other backup systems if you know some more and at the same time, if you have data to disprove some of the deal-breakers listed here (benchmarks, info about something being true for older releases but is fixed on newer releases), please share it so that I can edit this list accordingly.
