Why isn't using POST for everything considered RESTful?

Context/Rephrasing: Why can't we use POST as the HTTP verb for every request/response in the HTTP request/response cycle?

In the mid-90's, when the web was new, everything was a GET or a POST. Through developing the HyperText Transport Protocol (HTTP) it was determined that this wasn't flexible enough, and opened many other HTTP methods (aka "verbs") such as PUT, PATCH and DELETE.

Even today, when the "web" is more than 20 years old, <form> tags will still only send data using GET or POST, but modern frameworks have a bit of a way around that, and there are other ways using JavaScript to send data using other methods/verbs.

When we consider how "endpoints" (URIs) are built in our applications, it's far easier to say "if I'm trying to GET this URI" or "I'm trying to DELETE something based on this URI" by having several different endpoints with short blocks of code, like this:

The "High Sierra" build of macOS X removed a legacy folder path where some library files are generally installed for tools that need to be compiled. If you click on the 'apple' icon in the top left corner of your screen, if the text in large font says something like "macOS High Sierra" then this set of instructions could help fix some problems for you.

If you have installed PostgreSQL before upgrading to High Sierra, this may not affect you and these installation notes may not help.

If your Macbook came with High Sierra, or you've upgraded to High Sierra before installing PostgreSQL, this may affect you and you can keep reading.

Intro to Co-Authored Git Commits

Why

In student projects, I commonly look at contribution graphs to see how much code they worked on, to get an idea if one student is doing more work than others on the project. This can be used for coaching and performance grading.

How

Start with your ~/.gitconfig file in your home folder. Add these lines:

Terminology:

... means "whatever else is already here", don't actually input three dots!

To get started, add the following gem in your Gemfile in the :development, :test group, and run 'bundle update'

group :development, :test do

	The error was something like "database files are incompatible with server".

	Database files have to be updated before starting the server, here are the steps that had to be followed:

	# need to have both 9.6.1 and latest 9.5.x installed, and keep 9.6.1 as default
	brew unlink postgresql
	brew install postgresql95
	brew unlink postgresql95
