It From Bit or Bit From It?
by Anthony Aguirre Brendan Foster Zeeya MeraliThe essays in this book look at the question of whether physics can be based on information, or ? as John Wheeler phrased it ? whether we can get ?It from Bit'. They are based on the prize-winning essays submitted to the FQXi essay competition of the same name, which drew over 180 entries. The eighteen contributions address topics as diverse as quantum foundations, entropy conservation, nonlinear logic and countable spacetime. Together they provide stimulating reading for all physics aficionados interested in the possible role(s) of information in the laws of nature. The Foundational Questions Institute, FQXi, catalyzes, supports, and disseminates research on questions at the foundations of physics and cosmology, particularly new frontiers and innovative ideas integral to a deep understanding of reality, but unlikely to be supported by conventional funding sources.

O JavaScript está sendo usado cada vez mais... Apesar de o JavaScript ser, de longe, a linguagem de programação do lado do cliente mais popular em uso hoje, pode e é usada no lado do servidor também. Node.js, Meteor, Wakanda, CouchDB e MongoDB são apenas alguns exemplos de onde você vai encontrar e ser capaz de usar JavaScript no lado do servidor. O tempo que você investir em aprender JavaScript pode ser duplamente gratificante na medida em que o JavaScript continua se movendo para mais e mais áreas da computação. Aprender os fundamentos da linguagem de programação JavaScript Não importa se você tem planos de usar o JavaScript no lado do cliente em um navegador da web, no lado do servidor, ou ambos, você precisará aprender os fundamentos da língua. Isso é o que este livro vai lhe dar. Quando você terminar de ler este livro, que você vai sentir-se confortável e confiante programando na linguagem JavaScript. Aqui está apenas algo que você vai aprender quando você ler este livro: *Onde o JavaScript pode ser usado *Como configurar seu computador, de modo a que seja fácil e confortável programar em JavaScript *Que ferramentas você vai querer ter quando estiver programando em JavaScript *O básico de HTML... *O que são variáveis e como usá-las
Javascript
by Don Gosselin Sasha VodnikJavaScript is a client-side scripting language that allows web page authors to develop interactive web pages and sites. Although JavaScript is considered a programming language, it is also a critical part of web page design and authoring. This is because the JavaScript language enables web developers to add functionality directly to a web page's elements. The language is relatively easy to learn, allowing non-programmers to quickly incorporate JavaScript functionality into a web page. In fact, because it is used extensively in the countless web pages that are available on the World Wide Web, JavaScript is arguably the most widely used programming language in the world.

JavaScript Application Design: A Build First Approach
by Nicolas BevacquaSummaryJavaScript Application Design: A Build First Approach introduces JavaScript developers to techniques that will improve the quality of their software as well as their web development workflow. You'll begin by learning how to establish build processes that are appropriate for JavaScript-driven development. Then, you'll walk through best practices for productive day-to-day development, like running tasks when your code changes, deploying applications with a single command, and monitoring the state of your application once it's in production.Purchase of the print book includes a free eBook in PDF, Kindle, and ePub formats from Manning Publications.About the BookThe fate of most applications is often sealed before a single line of code has been written. How is that possible? Simply, bad design assures bad results. Good design and effective processes are the foundation on which maintainable applications are built, scaled, and improved. For JavaScript developers, this means discovering the tooling, modern libraries, and architectural patterns that enable those improvements.JavaScript Application Design: A Build First Approach introduces techniques to improve software quality and development workflow. You'll begin by learning how to establish processes designed to optimize the quality of your work. You'll execute tasks whenever your code changes, run tests on every commit, and deploy in an automated fashion.

JavaScript at Scale
by Adam BoduchBuild web applications that last, with scaling insights from the front-line of JavaScript development About This Book Design and implement JavaScript application architectures that scale from a number of perspectives, such as addressability, configurability, and performance Understand common JavaScript scaling pitfalls and how to tackle them through practical, real-world, solutions and strategies Learn techniques to deliver reusable architectures that stand the test of time Who This Book Is For Have you ever come up against an application that felt like it was built on sand? Maybe you've been tasked with creating an application that needs to last longer than a year before a complete re-write? If so, JavaScript at Scale is your missing documentation for maintaining scalable architectures. There's no prerequisite framework knowledge required for this book, however, most concepts presented throughout are adaptations of components found in frameworks such as Backbone, AngularJS, or Ember. All code examples are presented using ECMAScript 6 syntax, to make sure your applications are ready for next generation browsers. What You Will Learn Identify and evaluate the external scaling influencers of your application Build out component composition in large-scale JavaScript applications Design for inter-component communication that scale Understand the importance of addressable resources in JavaScript applications, and approaches to scaling addressability Customize and configure components to meet scaling demands Ensure a highly-performant user experience, despite the size and complexity of your application Design a portable and testable application that's not constrained to one environment Make architectural trade-offs by removing or refactoring components Design components that fail in a scalable way In Detail JavaScript applications of today look a lot different from their predecessors of just five years ago. Because of this rapid growth in sophistication and capabilities, we've seen an explosion in JavaScript frameworks; the JavaScript development landscape is a fragmented one. To build large-scale JavaScript applications, we need more than just tools – we need scalable architectures. We create scalable JavaScript architectures by looking at what aspects of our application need to scale and why. Only then can we apply the best patterns and components to our architecture, scaling it into the future. JavaScript at Scale will show you how to deal with scalability from a number of perspectives; addressability, testability and component composition. The book begins by defining ‘scale’ from a JavaScript point of view, and dives into the influencers of scale, as well as scalable component composition and communication. We will also look at how large-scale architectures need the ability to scale down, and recover from failing components, as well as scale up and manage new features or a large user base. Filled with real-world JavaScript scaling scenarios, and code-first examples, JavaScript at Scale is your guide to building out applications that last. Each topic is covered in a way that it can be applied to your own unique scenarios; by understanding the fundamentals of a scaling issue, you’ll be able to use that knowledge to tackle even the most difficult of situations. The code examples follow the same approach, using ECMAScript 6 syntax that can be translated to the framework of choice.
