Something that interested me this week
Those of you who read this weekly know that I released my app
todometer this past week! Thanks to all out there who've been making issues and PRs. I learned a lot about the world of open source this week that I didn't realize I didn't already know. Some of it might be common sense to a lot of you out there.
Really the crux of what I learned is just maintenance in general and about some of the awesome individual repo maintainers out there. I don't know how y'all do it. Between actual GitHub issues, tweets, emails, messages, and even in-person conversation,
everyone as an opinion about how your OS project should work, and you have to learn to either say no, or decide if it's something you want to take on. That being said, because it's open source, if anyone really wants those features, they can build it themselves. It's an interesting relationship between developers that I hadn't experienced before.
Anyway, thanks again, and if you want to learn about how I went about building it,
I wrote a blog post on the subject. :)
Interview question of the week
Write 2 functions that sort a stack (one function with the smallest items on top, the other with the largest items on top).
Try to do this one using only stacks, no other things like arrays, lists, or queues. You have access to the functions pop, peek, push, and isEmpty.
