It works great for me just using iCloud Drive.

I haven't updated it recently, but this should give you a starting point: https://github.com/ytechie/obsidian-sample
There are some challenges with duplication, and I either keep my own version (focused on what I need to know about it), or I just have a link to the other system.

Obsidian supports Mermaid charts. I've used that for this type of chart before, to plan a trip.

Wouldn't these be great for trailers? Trailer blowouts are common, and often unnoticed, or can heavily damage the trailer. I have no interest in these on a car, but for a trailer, sign me up!
Re:Interactive Comparison of Map Projections

I've heard that all map projections are a compromise. Is this a leftover of printed maps?
If you take a photo of the earth, you can't argue that it's inaccurate, as it's literally a photo. When you use something like Google Earth, it's the same deal. You can rotate the map and everything is rendered fairly accurately for any given perspective. Aren't they an accurate representation?

For me, I get motion sick if I'm not driving, so I'm really excited about this. I'll be able to use the toll HOV lanes.

The App Service Editor (which uses Monaco) does have file management. It even has a web-based command-line interface. https://github.com/projectkudu/kudu/wiki/App-Service-Editor

It's actually built into Azure websites. To navigate there directly, have you app name ready and put it in this URL: https://XXXX.scm.azurewebsites.net/dev/wwwroot/ where XXXX is the name of your site. For a little more history, you can listen to my podcast where we interview some of the brains behind it: http://msdevshow.com/2015/09/visual-studio-code-with-chris-d...

Re:We ditched Google Analytics

I agree. Server-side analytics were actually fairly mature before Google came alone. It's just more complicated in some cases, but manageable. The biggest downside these days would be SPA apps since they are not necessarily touching the server in any regular way.

Re:Why I don't mock
on Wednesday May 28, 2014 @11:15AM (#7810391)
I don't understand how you can be 100% against mocking. When I want to visualize testing, I often find it useful to think about how it's applied in the real world. For example, when building a car, the parts are tested in isolation (for the most part). Individual parts are tested - size, shape, stress, etc. Groups of parts are also tested in isolation. For example, the engine is actually connected to a mock drivetrain, mock computer, mock user inputs, etc. I see that as useful, and I think the same goes for software. It can simply be too costly in terms of time, bandwidth, etc to test against real resources.
