I’m a software engineer, proud veteran, and even prouder husband and father. I live and work in Silicon Valley, and love to learn about learning, machine learning, and cybersecurity.
You can find out “how I tick” by reading my leadership philosophy or by reading what I’m reading.
Anyone who uses YAML long enough will eventually get burned when attempting to abbreviate “Norway.”
YAML Ain’t Markup Language (YAML) is a human-readable data serialization language, and if you ever try to abbreviate “Norway,” you just might run into a surprising outcome.
Here’s an example:
NI: Nicaragua NL: Netherlands NO: Norway # boom!
Does it work? NO|No|no, but not “NO”. NO is parsed as a boolean type, which with the YAML 1.1 spec, there are 11 ways to say false:
n N no No NO false False FALSE off Off OFF
The correction:
NI: Nicaragua NL:...
