Sprint Planning [Sprint Meeting] What is a Sprint? A Sprint is a set period of time during which specific work has to be completed and made ready for the review. Typically, a sprint is about 2 weeks long and the stories/tasks taken for that period should be completed with in that time. Let us know certain things before going further in our discussion like product backlog , sprint backlog, sprint dashboard, stories, tasks, story points, backlog grooming, backlog refinement meeting etc. A story can be a small thing like adding a button, a user to the system, discussing with the client etc. A task can be little more than a story that requires more effort like creating a basic login for the website, changing the database model to some extent, making calls to get new customers etc. Product Backlog: You can create as many stories/ tasks/ issues you can to deliver the product according to the requirements. In this backlog, all the stories/ta...

It is secure and the user can store large amounts of data unlike cookies. No expiration to the data that is being stored. Even if the browser is closed the data is not deleted.

It deletes the data as soon as the session ends. Otherwise, when the browser is closed. Cookies: These carry some data from the server and are placed on the client computer. Cookies can also use your browsing history to change the search results. If you remember getting recommendations from the websites, that is because your interest is being cached and is used to generate that result.

Proxy Server? A server that acts as a middleman between the origin server and your application. [Wiki] A proxy server that acts as an intermediary for requests from clients seeking resources from other servers. Every request is sent to the proxy server. So where will the proxy server exactly be. By the definition, it resides in between the application and origin server. How does it work? All the requests are sent to the proxy server. This proxy server caches the objects. Only the new objects are requested from the origin server. It reduces the number of requests to the origin server and also increases the performance of the application. I hope this gives you a nice basic idea. Thanks. Happy 'Proxying' guys.
Steven Spielberg's Vision
Why called it a vision is, he literally changed the way people actually look at the screen. Shot composition is done in such a way that it pulls you in to the movie from the shot-1 itself. Without any dialogue, with the camera movement and shot composition he will show you more. He likes to show more rather than telling them. His famous shot was when he put three different shots in a single shot. In that single shot also we didn't miss the emotion. That is his greatness.
What do i Know?
What do I Know? At some point of time in your life you have to ask yourselves about what do you know the most, what actually you know? On what things you are actually good at?

Hitchcock's Vision
Hitchcock explained two simple situations to describe the character of a person. Situation-1: Let us think that an old man is standing in front of a garden. (Close-up to his face) The old man looks in to the garden. CUT: A woman is playing with a child on her lap. CUT: The old man smiles. This portrays that the old man is a soft-heart, kind and warm. Situation-2: Consider the other case, where in the same old man is standing in front of the same garden. (Close-up to his face) The same old man looks in to the garden. CUT: (But here i would like to cut to a different shot than the one we used earlier.) Here the same woman is on her BIKINI lying on the garden. CUT: The old man smiles. How dirty is the old man here? He is laughing at a woman who is on her bikini. Where in the world does a nice old man laughs at a girl wearing a bikini? The only shot we have changed in both the situations is the 2nd one which just changed the character of a old man fro...

VICKY showed his hands towards the black board. There are two letters “e, r” on the board. Suddenly a student stands on the table, raises his hand and says that “Those letters might be the first letters of their names?” Everyo...
