Pie and Gauge Charts: Unlocking Interactivity with Plotly.js, Part 5
If you've been following this series since the beginning, you may have noticed that Plotly.js uses the same scatter type to create line and bubble charts.

Real-time chat using Readline and Socket.io for Node.js
Node.js has an underappreciated but extremely useful module in its standard library. The Readline module does what it says on the box: reads a line of input from the terminal. This can be used to ask the user a question or two, or create a prompt at the bottom of the screen. In this tutorial, I plan to demonstrate the capabilities of Readline and make a live CLI chat room powered by Socket.io. Not only can the client send simple messages, but it can also send emoticon commands using /me, send private messages using /msg, and allows the use of /nick. A little about Readline This is probably the simplest use of Readline: varreadline=require('re

The concept of themes and plugins has made WordPress a very popular framework, and using WordPress has made it possible to have tens of thousands of themes and plugins available. But according to Uncle Ben, with great power comes great responsibility. You cannot use multiple themes (mostly), but you can use an unlimited number of plugins in a single WordPress installation.
