We could hard-code the list of all permutations, but for a 6-item list, that's 720 hard coded items. (it gets big fast) There's no caching because the list of possible arrangements is generated on the...

If I'm reading this correctly, one drawback is the need to brute-force calculate at least every arrangement up to and including the one desired. This might be be feasible, but as people progress deeper...

You can slightly shorten the second example as name = name or get_name(). But Daniel is right- the first example runs a risk of introducing very subtle bugs.

Interesting. I'm not sure why inlining the image solves this (especially when the alternative was cursor: none), but it does seem to help in preliminary testing. A strange issue with a strange answer,...

Did you always see this error, or is it new? We had a similar (though different) error message today, which we traced to a recently released new version of a dependency (ember-cli in our case). Pinning...

@MarcinOrlowski : Because our app is in a broken state without it- configuration is part of making things work. Slightly less cheekily, this is the recommended mechanism for in depth questions on...

It's not entirely clear what your goals are, or what your data looks like. (A list of wordcounts per passage? Something else?)For starters, then, I would recommend separating the data collection/...

Extending on unutbu's longer answer above, it's possible to generate the masked array of scores automatically. Since your scores for values are consistent every pass through the loop, so the scores for...
