This document discusses Clojure collections including lists, sets, maps, vectors, and their persistent and immutable characteristics. It describes Clojure's sequence abstraction which allows collections to be treated uniformly. Sequences can be lazy to support infinite streams. Reducers provide a simpler abstraction than sequences for better performance and parallelism. Reducers transform reducing functions and can leverage parallelism using fold.
Presentation about big benefits of immutable data and functional approach to programming in contrast with more traditional imperative style. Comparison of the code trying to solve the same problem written in imperative-style Javascript and then rewritten in Clojure
This document provides an overview of a class on manual facial manipulation techniques taught by the Bellanina Institute. The class covers the benefits of facial manipulation for toning and tightening skin, contraindications, techniques used including massaging, contouring and tapping, creating a sanitary workspace, and practicing the techniques in pairs. The goal is for students to learn how manual manipulation can improve circulation, lymph drainage, and skin health to produce youthful, toned skin.
Este documento describe una pulsera inteligente con conectividad Wi-Fi y Bluetooth que permite estar conectado a Internet en cualquier lugar. La pulsera es ligera, resistente al agua, ajustable y tiene un diseño innovador. Ofrece beneficios como comodidad, conectividad y un precio asequible de 15€ al mes. La empresa detrás de la pulsera tiene tiendas en España y el extranjero, emplea a 75.000 personas y espera vender la pulsera por valor de 1.000 millones de euros en menos de un año.
The document discusses reasons why someone might want to learn Clojure, a functional programming language. It addresses both obvious reasons like curiosity about new technologies as well as less obvious reasons like stepping out of one's comfort zone. It acknowledges doubts about functional programming and discusses how adopting Clojure offers benefits like easier refactoring. While learning a new language takes time, functional programming techniques can be rewarding to learn. The document provides resources for learning Clojure.
This document provides an overview of accessibility features in Windows 8, including Narrator which reads text aloud, Magnifier which enlarges parts of the screen, and the Ease of Access Center which allows customizing accessibility settings. It describes how to use these tools, set speech recognition, change text size, and personalize Windows 8 features like themes, backgrounds, and the Start screen.

Web Components enable the creation of reusable UI elements through standard HTML tags. They consist of several technologies including custom elements, templates, shadow DOM, and HTML imports. While supported natively by newer browsers, polyfills allow using web components in older browsers. The document provides an example of generating a web component using Yeoman and implementing it with tags, then distributing it on GitHub and via Bower. Web Components promote reusability, scalability, and reducing wasted efforts of rewriting components.
The document discusses several important topics for software development including unit testing, clean coding principles, design patterns, and useful development tools. It emphasizes that tests are important for preventing bugs and should be included in all projects. Clean coding principles like DRY, KISS and SRP help produce code that is easier to read, change and maintain. Design patterns provide solutions to common problems and a shared vocabulary for developers. Useful tools include IDEs, version control systems, code analysis tools and text editors which can help programmers work more efficiently if used properly.
This document provides an overview of a course on demystifying skin care for massage therapists. The course is structured into 6 chapters with a test at the end of each chapter. Upon completing all chapters and tests, the student will receive a certificate for 4 CEUs. The document then covers various topics related to skin including the structure of skin, causes of aging, common skin conditions and concerns for both the body and face, how to determine skin type and create a skin care routine, and differences between natural, synthetic and organic ingredients.
