Describe the differences between a SQL and NoSQL DB, and when you might use each.

Views are how the data is displayed and positioned on the page (ie, JS that makes an image change on mouse hover). Models are how the data is rendered/pulled from the back-end.
Given the following front-end JS model, add an instance method for all pandas called eat_bamboo. Calling this method should increase that panda's value for num_bamboo_eaten by 1.
var Panda = function(name, age) {
this.name = name;
this.age = age;
this.num_bamboo_eaten = 0;
}Your Answer:
var eat_bamboo = function(num_bamboo_eaten) {
eat_bamboo = i++
}
How is the concept of OAuth related to a valet key?
Your Answer:
OAuth is an authentication method that allows users to approve application actions on their behalf, just like a driver hands over his key to a valet driver to allow said valet to drive the owner's car on his behalf. However, that driver might want to just hand over a valet key, instead of his full key set, in order to give the valet only specific control, just like OAuth.

}How is rebase different than a merge?
Your Answer:
Both git rebase and git merge solve the same problem-- they integrate changes from one branch to another. However, rebasing rewrites the history by creating new commits for each existing commit in the original branch. The result is a much cleaner workflow.
Describe some of the common git workflows for teams (fork and pull request, etc).
Forking gives multiple developers a server-side repository to work on. Pull requests provide an interface to evaluate proposed changes before integrating. Cloning creates an exact but local replica of a given repository on a user's machine. Branches are individual development flows that can later be merged together. They are useful if multiple developers are working on a single project, or if a user wants multiple branches to keep a complex project clean.
