Brexit - Why Britain Leaves the EU

The United Kingdom (UK) has been a member of the European Union (EU) for over forty years. On the 23rd June 2016, 33 million members of the British public voted, 52% decided to leave the EU, and 48% said that they wanted to remain. Now for the first time in European history, a member of the EU will leave the organisation, and the consequences of that decision, for both Europe and the UK, continue to be unknown. Shortly after the EU referendum results were revealed, Prime Minister David Cameron, a staunch remainer, resigned. Theresa May took over the role in July 2016, becoming the UK's second female leader, she vowed that Brexit meant Brexit and that the UK would leave the EU in 2019. Article 50 was triggered in March the following year stating, ‘we are leaving the European Union, but we are not leaving Europe, and we want to remain committed partners and allies to our friends across the continent', but that sounded more like a propaganda that we are fighting against. The pound sank to a 30 year low, the news went crazy, economists predicted doom, and yet by close of business that day, things appeared to have settled down.

One of the areas for discussion during the EU negotiations is whether Britain can continue to be a part of the single market and the potential impact that their non-participation could have, both on the UK and the European economy overall. The single market refers to the trade agreement between all EU members that allows free movement of goods, services, capital and people across member states. 3 million European nationals currently live, work or study in the UK and 2 million Brits are presently reside in other EU countries. One of the most significant challenges the government faces throughout these talks is in deciding what will happen to these people. Expatriate groups across social media are often questioning what is happening, what decisions have been made and the potential effect that this decision could have on the lives that they have perhaps spent decades building. May has stated, however, that she wants more control over immigration and stricter border control, declaring that she seeks to leave the single market. Many financial advisors and economists have predicted that this will have a negative impact on the UK economy and Europe. Furthermore, the introduction of tariffs and other trade barriers on the imports to and exports from the UK may have an adverse impact upon the global economy overall, with German company BMW describing Brexit as a ‘very uncomfortable scenario'. Although, it could be suggested that the UK does not have to be a member of the EU to trade on the single market, with some non-EU members currently being allowed to participate in the market under different rules and legislation.

May called a general election in June 2017, in the hopes of strengthening the Conservative's political majority further. However, results from the electoral vote indicated an increasing support for the Labour leader, Jeremy Corbyn. As a result, the Conservative party lost their majority government and had to create a hung parliament with Northern Irish party, the DUP, to retain power. The discussion appears to have reached a stalemate, and with recent trouble in Westminster and further afield, it is looking like negotiations may only be stalled farther. Terrorist attacks, sexual abuse and assault scandals, and unrest in the Cabinet have only served to provide further distraction. Things have not been smooth sailing in Europe either. Angela Merkel, the German Prime Minister, has been unable to form a majority government, losing her grip on the country and the EU. Furthermore, with German business' setting up the New Deal for Brexit campaign based on the desire of a mutually beneficial deal, there is increasing recognition of the continued power of the pound across the international market. If the negotiations fail to decide the future of the UK's relationship with the EU within the two years, discussions can be extended, but only if each of the 28 countries agrees to this. As a result of Article 50 being triggered last year, the only way that the UK could renege on their decision to leave the EU would be if each of the 28 countries decided to let them remain. There continue to be individuals and groups who feel that a second referendum is needed, politicians that believe that the outcome of the referendum can be ignored and there are those who argue whether a soft or hard Brexit is desirable. If this were to happen, this would indicate broader issues regarding a potential threat to the democratic ideals on which Britain has been founded. The ramifications of this could be significant and would potentially leave many of the individuals who voted leave questioning the voting process entirely.

Lesson: Understanding Brexit

**Introduction**

Brexit is the process by which the United Kingdom (UK) leaves the European Union (EU). It has caused significant political and economic upheaval in both the UK and the EU. In this lesson, we will explore the reasons behind Brexit, its impact on the UK and the EU, and the challenges faced during the withdrawal process.

**Section 1: Background**

The EU is a political and economic union of 27 member states that aims to create a single market through the free movement of goods, services, capital, and people. The UK joined the EU in 1973, but many Britons have always been skeptical of the EU and its perceived impact on their sovereignty.

In 2016, the UK held a referendum on whether to stay in the EU or leave. The Leave campaign won, with 52% of voters supporting Brexit and 48% supporting Remain. This result came as a surprise to many, as most polls and commentators had predicted a victory for Remain.

**Section 2: Impact**

Brexit has had far-reaching consequences for both the UK and the EU. The most immediate effect was the resignation of Prime Minister David Cameron, who had campaigned for Remain. He was replaced by Theresa May, who promised to lead the UK out of the EU.

Since then, the UK has faced numerous challenges, including negotiating its exit from the EU, dealing with the fallout from the COVID-19 pandemic, and managing its relationship with Ireland, its closest neighbor and EU member state.

The EU has also been affected by Brexit, losing one of its largest economies and a key player in its decision-making processes. The remaining 27 member states have had to adjust to life without the UK, reorganizing their relationships and institutions to account for its absence.

**Section 3: Challenges**

One of the biggest challenges facing the UK during the Brexit process was determining the future relationship between the UK and the EU. This involved negotiating trade deals, border arrangements, and immigration policies. These negotiations were complex and contentious, with many disagreements over issues such as fishing rights and the Northern Ireland border.

Another challenge was the impact on the UK economy. Many businesses rely on access to the EU market, and Brexit threatened to disrupt these supply chains. There were also concerns about the impact on immigration, as the UK had relied heavily on EU workers to fill jobs in sectors such as healthcare and agriculture.

**Glossary**
- EU: European Union
- Brexit: the process by which the UK leaves the EU
- Single Market: a market where goods, services, capital, and people can move freely
- Sovereignty: the right to govern oneself

**Conclusion**

Brexit has had a profound impact on the UK and the EU, and its effects will be felt for years to come. While the UK has left the EU, its relationship with Europe remains complex and uncertain. This lesson has provided an overview of Brexit, its background, impact, and challenges. By understanding these factors, we can better comprehend the forces at play in the UK and the EU and the implications for global politics and economics.

Arsenal Inc. Releases SAM7UF

LAS VEGAS, NV Arsenal, Inc. is proud to announce the expansion of its SAM7 Family products. The SAM7UFrifle is the latest in the growing group of firearms to join the modern SAM family and incorporates the latest technologies, quality, and workmanship the American market has come to expect from Arsenal and SAM7 series.

Arsenal Inc. SAM7UF 7.62x39mm

The SAM7UF is a 7.62x39mm semi-automatic rifle, manufactured on Arsenal’s legendary hot-die forged and milled receiver and incorporates the modern under-folding buttstock. Loyal to its traditions, Arsenal has manufactured the SAM7UF rifle with all mil-spec and premium components, including the hard chrome lined hammer forged barrel, reinforced polymer pistol grip and hand guards, stainless steel heat shield, the 90-degree vertical gas block with bayonet/accessories lug, and the original 14x1mm left-hand muzzle threads.

The SAM7UF utilizes the modern straight-back under-folding stock, which locks perpendicular to the action and the bore of the rifle. In order to provide a more secure and firm lock, whether in a folded or extended position, this stock locks on both sides of the receiver with 4 solid pins. This, with the additional reinforcement in the arms of the stock, stabilizes the rifle, which significantly reduces the climb, and gives the shooter much firmer control over the firearm for improved accuracy and effectiveness.

If the rifle looks familiar, it made a brief appearance as the SAS M-7 when Arsenal, Inc. released it as a limited run. Two years ago, Arsenal began serious work on a refined version that integrated maximum precision and new manufacturing processes. What cost just over $2,000 a few years ago will retail with the introductory price of: $1,299

On top of this already amazing introductory price, the first batch of rifles will include a $50 coupon toward purchase of Arsenal accessories from KVAR Corp.

Lesson: Introduction to Semi-Automatic Rifles

Overview:
In this lesson, we will learn about semi-automatic rifles, their history, and how they work. We will also explore the different parts of a semi-automatic rifle and discuss some of the most popular models on the market today.

Objective:
By the end of this lesson, students will be able to:

- Define what a semi-automatic rifle is
- Explain how a semi-automatic rifle works
- Identify the main parts of a semi-automatic rifle
- List some of the most popular semi-automatic rifles on the market today

Section 1: What is a Semi-Automatic Rifle?

A semi-automatic rifle is a type of gun that fires one bullet every time you pull the trigger. Once you've fired all the bullets in the magazine, you have to reload it. Unlike fully automatic rifles, which continue to fire as long as you hold the trigger, semi-automatic rifles are not capable of fully automatic fire.

Section 2: How do Semi-Automatic Rifles Work?

Semi-automatic rifles work by using the energy of the firing cartridge to load the next bullet into the chamber. When you pull the trigger, the gunpowder in the cartridge ignites, causing the bullet to travel down the barrel and out of the muzzle. As the bullet leaves the barrel, it pushes out a small amount of gas. This gas is used to operate the action, which is the part of the gun that loads and fires the bullet.

The gas is directed into a tube called the gas cylinder, which is connected to the action. As the gas pressure builds up inside the cylinder, it pushes against the action, causing it to move backward. This movement opens the bolt, which is the part of the action that holds the bullet and powder in place.

Once the bolt is open, the spent cartridge is ejected from the chamber. At the same time, a fresh bullet from the magazine is pushed into place. The bolt then moves forward, closing the action and loading the new bullet into the chamber. Finally, the trigger resets, allowing you to fire again.

Section 3: Parts of a Semi-Automatic Rifle

There are several main parts to a semi-automatic rifle:

- Action: The part of the gun that loads and fires the bullet.
- Magazine: The container that holds the bullets.
- Bolt: The part of the action that holds the bullet and powder in place.
- Barrel: The tube that the bullet travels down before leaving the muzzle.
- Muzzle: The end of the barrel.
- Trigger: The part of the gun that you pull to fire it.

Section 4: Popular Semi-Automatic Rifles

There are many different types of semi-automatic rifles on the market today. Some of the most popular models include:

- AR-15
- AK-47
- Ruger Mini-14
- Remington 700
- Savage Axis

Conclusion:

In this lesson, we learned about semi-automatic rifles, how they work, and what makes them different from other types of guns. We also explored the main parts of a semi-automatic rifle and discussed some of the most popular models on the market today. By understanding these basics, we can better appreciate the role that semi-automatic rifles play in our society and make informed decisions about their use.

Lesson Title: Introduction to Torrents

Lesson Overview:
In this lesson, we will learn about torrents and their importance in file sharing. We will cover the basics of torrents, including what they are, how they work, and why they are popular. We will also explore some of the benefits and risks associated with using torrents.

Section 1: What are Torrents?

Torrents are files that contain metadata about other files. They are often used to share files, such as music, movies, and software, over the internet. When you download a torrent, your computer connects to other computers that have the same file and shares pieces of that file with them. This process is called "peering."

Section 2: How do Torrents Work?

When you download a torrent, your computer connects to a "tracker" server that manages the file sharing process. The tracker keeps track of which computers have which pieces of the file and ensures that everyone is sharing the correct pieces. Once your computer has all the pieces, it can reassemble them into the original file.

Section 3: Why are Torrents Popular?

Torrents are popular because they allow people to share files quickly and efficiently. Unlike traditional file sharing methods, such as email or FTP, torrents can handle large files and many users simultaneously. This makes it easy for people to share files with each other without overloading the system.

Section 4: Benefits of Using Torrents

One of the biggest benefits of using torrents is that they are free. You can download any file you want without having to pay for it. Additionally, torrents are easy to use and require little technical knowledge. Finally, torrents are fast, allowing you to download files quickly and efficiently.

Section 5: Risks of Using Torrents

While torrents are convenient and free, there are also risks associated with using them. One of the biggest risks is that you may accidentally download malware or viruses along with the file you want. Additionally, downloading copyrighted material without permission is illegal and can result in fines or even jail time.

Conclusion:
In conclusion, torrents are a powerful tool for sharing files over the internet. They are easy to use, fast, and free. However, there are also risks associated with using them, such as the potential for malware and legal consequences for downloading copyrighted material. It is important to be aware of these risks and take precautions to protect yourself when using torrents.

Lesson: Introduction to Filmmaking

## Section 1: Theoretical Concepts

### Topic 1: What is Filmmaking?
Filmmaking is the process of creating a movie or video by capturing images, sound, and other visual elements through the use of cameras, lighting, and other equipment. It involves a team effort of writers, directors, actors, cinematographers, editors, and other professionals who work together to bring a story to life on screen.

### Topic 2: Types of Filmmaking
There are several types of filmmaking, including narrative, documentary, animation, and experimental. Narrative filmmaking tells a story through fictional characters and events, while documentary filmmaking captures real-life events and people. Animation involves creating moving images using computer-generated imagery or hand-drawn techniques, and experimental filmmaking uses unconventional techniques to explore new forms of storytelling.

### Topic 3: The Filmmaking Process
The filmmaking process begins with an idea or concept that is developed into a script. This script is then presented to producers and investors who provide funding for the project. Once the film is financed, the cast and crew are hired, and the production process begins. During this phase, the actors perform their roles, the camera crew captures the action, and the sound team records the dialogue and other sounds. After the footage is captured, the editing process begins, where the footage is organized and shaped into a cohesive story. Finally, the film is distributed to theaters or streaming platforms for viewers to enjoy.

## Section 2: Practical Examples

### Topic 4: Creating a Storyboard
Before filming begins, a storyboard is created to visually represent the sequence of shots that will be used to tell the story. This helps the director and cinematographer plan out the camera angles and movements needed to capture each scene. Here's an example of a simple storyboard:

Frame 1: Close-up of a character sitting at a desk, looking at a letter.
Frame 2: Medium shot of the same character standing up and walking away from the desk.
Frame 3: Long shot of the character exiting the room and closing the door.
Frame 4: Close-up of the character's hand turning the doorknob.

### Topic 5: Lighting Techniques
Lighting is an essential part of filmmaking, as it can dramatically impact the mood and atmosphere of a scene. There are several lighting techniques that can be used, including:

1. High Key: This technique uses bright lights to create a bright and airy atmosphere.
2. Low Key: This technique uses dim lighting to create a moody and dramatic atmosphere.
3. Hard Light: This technique uses strong shadows and harsh lines to create a dramatic effect.
4. Soft Light: This technique uses diffused light to create a more natural and subtle effect.

## Section 3: Self-Debating Discussions

### Topic 6: The Role of Technology in Filmmaking
Technology has revolutionized the way movies are made, from the use of digital cameras and special effects software to the ability to edit and distribute films digitally. However, some argue that this technology has made it easier for filmmakers to rely too heavily on computer-generated imagery and special effects, rather than focusing on storytelling and character development. Others believe that technology has opened up new possibilities for creativity and innovation in the film industry.

### Topic 7: The Importance of Collaboration in Filmmaking
Filmmaking is a collaborative process that requires the efforts of many individuals, each bringing their unique skills and perspectives to the project. From the actors and directors to the camera crew and sound technicians, everyone must work together to create a cohesive and compelling final product. Some argue that collaboration is essential to the success of a film, as it allows for different ideas and perspectives to be incorporated into the project. Others believe that a strong vision from the director is more important than collaboration, as it ensures that the final product reflects the intended vision.

## Glossary
- Filmmaking: The process of creating a movie or video by capturing images, sound, and other visual elements through the use of cameras, lighting, and other equipment.
- Narrative: A story told through fictional characters and events.

text: Inspiration comes from decorative architectural features such as plaster ceilings, wrought iron and carved stone. I enjoy the grand gesture present in large scale relief, the drama of deep shadow, the dialogue between space, structure & ornament. Changing light conditions of bright sunlight, a dull day, dusk or artificial light can affect the contrast and way a structure is perceived.. The making process influences the outcome; the connection with raw material is intrinsic to the shapes & marks made. Clay pieces are made & marked with tools as the potter's wheel rotates until a variety of shapes in different sizes are amassed. More clay is manipulated by hand, then assembly begins, by adding & securing each piece whilst paying attention to the physical & aesthetic sense of balance. As the work evolves decisions are made regarding the composition from every angle until the work is complete.

LG: Google Isn’t Purchasing 35% Stake In Business

These days, it seems anything can spark the stock market alight, and send stock prices soaring higher than usual. Of course, such is the nature of a twitchy and uncertain global economy. Still, some rumors that spark these spikes in stock prices are a little more wild than others and a fantastic rumor just did the rounds in South Korea, sending the stock of one South Korean tech giant soaring by as much as 14%. Someone, somewhere thought that Google would be purchasing a 35% stake in LG. The South Korean giant has now officially come forward and denied the rumor as nothing more than your average round of speculation.

The rumor goes that Google were to purchase 35% of LG for a cool 2.5 Trillion Won, which is roughly $2.2 Billion or so. While a stake of 35% wouldn’t ensure Google a majority, and therefore nothing close to controlling the company, it would of course give the search giant some considerable sway with the company’s direction, and no doubt lead to closer workings with Google and LG on future products. Even so, a 35% stake in LG would cause a shockwave throughout the Android ecosystem. If partners like Samsung and HTC were unhappy when Google bought fledgling Motorola years ago, imagine how they’d feel getting nice and cosy with LG? A rising star in the Android world and a competitive consumer electronics company the world over. ‘Samsung’ is perhaps the one word that would ensure such a deal wouldn’t take place. While Google might not enjoy how Samsung market their phones – with very little mention of Google or Android at all – or do with their software, the company is the number one reason Android is as big as it is today. No matter how good LG is, or how well they’re doing right now, Google wouldn’t risk upsetting one of their biggest and most influential partners in the mobile space.

LG and Google have enjoyed a fairly close relationship over the years as it is, with the Nexus 4, the Nexus 5 and of course the original G Watch all powered by LG, it’s clear the two have a working relationship. There seems to be little reason for Google to purchase a large stake in LG, or any mobile partner for that matter, they’ve ‘been there and done that‘ with Motorola, and even though LG is a very different beast it’s a head scratcher as to why Google would need to invest quite so heavily in a faithful partner.

When analyzing stock market rumors, there are several steps you can take to determine their validity:

1. Check the source: Determine if the rumor comes from a credible source, such as a reputable news outlet or an insider within the company.
2. Look for confirmation: See if other sources corroborate the rumor. If multiple sources report the same information, it may be more reliable.
3. Analyze the impact: Consider how the rumor could affect the company's financial performance and stock price. If the impact seems exaggerated, it may be a sign that the rumor is not credible.
4. Monitor the company's response: If a company denies a rumor, it may indicate that it is not true.

Section 3: Consequences of Stock Market Rumors

Potential consequences of stock market rumors
Stock market rumors can have significant consequences for both companies and investors. Some potential consequences include:

1. Volatility: Rumors can cause significant fluctuations in stock prices, as investors try to capitalize on the information.
2. Insider trading: If insiders use non-public information to make trades, they may face legal consequences.
3. Damaged reputation: If a company denies a rumor and it turns out to be true, it can damage the company's reputation and investor confidence.
4. Regulatory action: If rumors involve violations of securities laws, regulators may investigate and take action against those responsible.

Conclusion:
Stock market rumors can have a significant impact on stock prices, making it crucial for investors to understand their validity and potential consequences. By analyzing rumors and their sources, investors can make informed decisions about when to buy or sell stocks, potentially increasing their returns.

Lesson: Understanding Gravity and its Effects

## Introduction

Gravity is a force that attracts two objects with mass towards each other. It is one of the four fundamental forces of nature and plays a crucial role in our daily lives. In this lesson, we will learn about what gravity is, how it works, and its effects on objects and systems.

## Section 1: What is Gravity?

Gravity is a force that exists between any two objects with mass. It is responsible for keeping planets in orbit around the sun, holding moons in orbit around their respective planets, and keeping objects on Earth's surface. The more massive an object, the stronger its gravitational pull.

## Section 2: How does Gravity Work?

Gravity works by pulling objects towards each other. It is a long-range force, meaning that it can affect objects over vast distances. The strength of the gravitational force depends on the mass of the objects and the distance between them. The greater the mass or the closer the objects, the stronger the gravitational force.

## Section 3: Effects of Gravity

Gravity has several effects on objects and systems, including:

1. Orbital Motion: Gravity causes objects to move in orbits around more massive objects, such as planets orbiting the sun.
2. Tidal Forces: Gravity causes differences in the strength of the force on different parts of an object, leading to tidal forces that can cause tides on Earth and other effects on celestial bodies.
3. Acceleration: Gravity causes objects to accelerate towards the ground, which is why objects fall when dropped.
4. Weight: Gravity determines the weight of an object, which is the force exerted on it due to gravity.
5. Time Dilation: Gravity causes time to pass more slowly in stronger gravitational fields, as described by Einstein's theory of general relativity.

## Section 4: Practical Examples

1. A ball is thrown upwards, and due to gravity, it falls back down to the ground.
2. The moon orbits around Earth because of the gravitational force between them.
3. We feel heavier on Earth than on Mars because of the difference in gravitational forces.

## Glossary

- Mass: The amount of matter in an object.
- Force: A push or pull upon an object resulting from its interaction with another object.
- Orbit: The path followed by an object around a more massive body.
- Tidal Forces: The difference in the gravitational force experienced by two points in space.
- Weight: The force exerted on an object due to gravity.

## Conclusion

Understanding gravity is essential for understanding the behavior of objects and systems in our universe. By studying gravity, we can gain insights into the formation and evolution of celestial bodies, the motion of objects in space, and the forces that govern our lives. By applying the principles of gravity, we can develop technologies that enable us to explore and exploit the resources of our solar system and beyond.

members of J A companies are termed, are high school sophomores, juniors or seniors. The companies make a product or provide a service, sell it, and end up the year with a profit or a loss.
The companies are formed at the start of the school year in September Achievers are recruited to a great extent through announcements in the schools, where Achievers from previous years help stir up interest and answer queries about the program. There is also publicity through business organ izations whose executives are active in sponsoring JA in their city, from the JA center in those cities that have a headquarters building, and through cooperating newspapers and radio stations.
As the JA headquarters in New York City frankly states: "The key to the success of JA companies (7,200 this past year) are advisers from business and the professions—people who volunteer one evening each week guiding Achievers in their particular area of experience. In the 1972-73 school year, 23,600 volunteer advisers worked with Achievers, spending about two hours weekly in on-the-spot counseling, and an estimated three hours a week for travel time and preparation. Usually, three advisers work with one company of 20 to 25 Achievers, This permits the advisers to rotate their weekly evenings with the youngsters, if they wish. As people in H&S know, such flexibility in advisers' dates is especially important for public accountants during the January-April busy season.
Behind the adult advisers stands a strong national and regional JA
organization. After a slow start in the pre-World War II days, JA has grown rapidly in the past few years. Recently an increasing number of large national organizations like H&S have taken an interest in JA and helped get action going in new places. From about a dozen cities where there was JA activity in 1946, there are now 1,000 communities in the United States with active JA programs Nearly three-fourths of them have JA business centers, or activity buildings, with meeting rooms, shops, tools, storage space and other facilities. More than 170,000 Achievers were enrolled in the past school year. Recently JA has spread outside this country to a dozen cities in Canada, Latin America, Western Europe and even to Hong Kong.
Corporate sponsorship has been most important to Junior Achievement, and H&S sponsors the programs in a number of cities. The professional staff of JA is headed by President Richard Maxwell and Executive Vice President Joseph J. Francomano, operating from the national headquarters in New York City. Policy guidance and financial support come from a national board of directors, which during the past year was chaired by W M. Elmer, chairman and chief executive officer of the Texas Gas Transmission Corporation. Officers of H&S client companies who have served on the JA board recently include H.Harold Bible of Monsanto Company, Henry Z. Carter of Avondale Shipyards in New Orleans, and Donald E. Garretson of 3M Company. Other client officials who have taken an active part in

Ask HN: Web dev environment on Windows? - dillonraphael
I just sold my Macbook for a new Razer Blade Pro. Reason being I'm looking to test out some VR stuff and obviously need a proper video card.
Although, I still need to do some web dev stuff. It has honestly been a nightmare getting this setup to the point I said "screw it" and started working inside a virtual box using Vagrant. This works great most of the time, but just adds a barrier for when I want to get up and running on a new idea quick.
For all you Windows users out there, what's your setup like? I work mostly in Node.
======
angersock
Have you tried just using Virtualbox with a lightweight Linux distro like
BunsenLabs?

Not through vagrant, just a normal Linux desktop (that happens to live in a
virtualbox). I do _all_ my web work this way, and it works just fine.

~~~
dillonraphael
I'm going to go this route. Except, I'll stick with Ubuntu

~~~
sdomino
Have you tried [http://nanobox.io/](http://nanobox.io/)?

------
moondev
Docker for Windows works great but it needs hyper-v which is pro only. Well
worth it though.

Also I would enable the WSL to get bash. Install conemu and you are pretty
much good to go.

You will be surprised how well bash works. The fact you can use apt-get to
access the ubuntu repos means it's even better than homebrew. You can even run
an x-server and use gui apps.

~~~
dillonraphael
So what's the difference between this and using my current setup; cmder &
vagrant?

If I get Windows Bash do I still need things like visual studio to compile
node-gyp stuff?

~~~
moondev
I would use bash for your normal command line. That way you can easily use
git, ssh, htop or whatever linux tools you need. Then I would install docker
for windows and docker-cli inside bash.

Then you can easily work on node projects by going into your project folder
with windows bash. Then run "docker run -it -d --name nodejs -p 3000:3000 -v
$PWD:/workdir -w /workdir node:latest bash"

This will launch a nodejs container a drop you into a tty inside the
container. Then you can edit your files from windows and do npm install.. npm
run... etc fro inside the container. localhost:3000 will have your app

~~~
dillonraphael
I'm using Windows 10 Home :(

~~~
moondev
You should be able to use docker-machine for windows but it needs virtualbox.
Honestly I would pay to upgrade though. I think it's around $100 and you can
do it from the store. Hyper-v is one of the most exciting things about windows
10 IMO

------
dillonraphael
Hmm maybe I stick with my current setup in using Vagrant with big projects,
and add something like CodePen or JSBin to mix for quick features. Then when
I'm happy append the code inside the vagrant box. Gah.

------
smt88
Vagrant is heavy, buggy garbage. If you have to use Windows, I highly
recommend Docker Compose instead.

tarr11
Have you tried Ubuntu bash for Windows?

Title: Setting up a Web Development Environment on Windows
======
Introduction:
In this lesson, we will teach you how to set up a web development environment on Windows. We will cover the basics of installing a code editor, setting up a local server, and configuring your development environment.
Prerequisites:
- Windows 10 or later
- Node.js
- Git
Instructions:
1. Install a code editor
There are many code editors available, but we recommend using Visual Studio Code. You can download it from [https://code.visualstudio.com/download](https://code.visualstudio.com/download).
2. Install Node.js
Node.js is an open-source software platform that allows you to run JavaScript code outside of a web browser. You can download it from [https://nodejs.org/en/download/](https://nodejs.org/en/download/).
3. Set up a local server
You will need a local server to test your web applications. We recommend using Apache OpenJDK. You can download it from [https://openjdk.java.net/install/](https://openjdk.java.net/install/).
4. Configure your development environment
Once you have installed a code editor, Node.js, and a local server, you will need to configure your development environment. You can do this by creating a new folder for your project and navigating to it in your code editor.
5. Create a new project
Create a new folder for your project and name it accordingly. Then, navigate to it in your code editor.
6. Install dependencies
You may need to install dependencies for your project. You can do this by running `npm install` in your terminal.
7. Run your project
You can run your project by running `npm start` in your terminal.
Conclusion:
Setting up a web development environment on Windows can be a bit tricky, but following these instructions will help you get started. Remember to always keep your software up to date and to practice regularly to improve your skills.

Lesson: Understanding Legal Language

Introduction:
Legal language can be confusing and difficult to understand. However, it is an essential part of our society and plays a crucial role in protecting our rights and freedoms. In this lesson, we will learn how to read and interpret legal language, including statutes, regulations, and case law.

Section 1: Understanding Legal Terminology

Topic 1: Definitions
- Definition is a crucial aspect of legal language. It helps to clarify the meaning of a term or phrase used in a statute or regulation.
- Terms are defined by using specific legal definitions, which can differ from their common meanings.
- Some terms may not have a specific definition and will be interpreted based on the context in which they are used.

Topic 2: Punctuation and Structure
- Legal language follows specific punctuation rules that can affect the meaning of a sentence.
- Statutes and regulations are structured in a specific way, with headings, subheadings, and numbering systems.
- This structure helps to organize the law and makes it easier to find and understand specific provisions.

Topic 3: Abbreviations and Acronyms
- Legal language often uses abbreviations and acronyms to save time and space.
- These abbreviations must be understood to interpret the law correctly.
- Common abbreviations include "U.S." for the United States, "Sec." for section, and "§" for a statutory provision.

Section 2: Reading and Interpreting Legal Language

Topic 1: Reading Statutes
- Statutes are the foundation of our legal system and are the source of most legal authority.
- They are written by legislators and must be interpreted according to their plain meaning.
- If the language is unclear, courts may use other tools of interpretation, such as canons of construction, to determine the intent of the law.

Topic 2: Reading Regulations
- Regulations are rules made by government agencies to implement and interpret statutes.
- They have the force of law and must be followed just like statutes.
- Regulations are usually more specific than statutes and provide details on how the law should be applied.

Topic 3: Reading Case Law
- Case law is the body of precedents created by judges when deciding cases.
- It helps to interpret statutes and regulations when there is uncertainty or ambiguity.
- Judges use various tools of interpretation, such as analogizing and distinguishing, to decide cases.

Section 3: Applying Legal Skills

Topic 1: Critical Thinking
- Legal language requires critical thinking to interpret and apply the law correctly.
- Lawyers must analyze statutes, regulations, and case law to determine their meaning and applicability.
- They must also consider the facts of a case and use logic and reasoning to make arguments.

Topic 2: Writing
- Good writing skills are essential for lawyers to communicate effectively with clients, judges, and other attorneys.
- Legal writing must be clear, concise, and organized to convey complex legal ideas.
- It must also follow specific formatting and citation rules.

Conclusion:
Understanding legal language is a valuable skill that can help us navigate our legal system and protect our rights. By learning to read and interpret statutes, regulations, and case law, we can apply the law to new situations and make informed decisions.
