anvarik··on Datamining a Flat in Munich
Why the heck shouldn't I classify this as discrimination? He tried Hans, an Italian female name, and his own, I believe is Karim. And he gets less replies than any other.

He probably wrote a pretty darn good e-mail saying how educated and well-behaved he is, bla bla from Paris have degrees etc, but guess what, no replies. Just because of his name! That is what I call discrimination, and in Germany it is pretty common.

anvarik··on MongoDB 2.6 Released
Well, aggregation in MongoDB allows you to write sql like queries, and before 2.6 if aggregated result was > 16mb it was throwing an error, but now it gives you a cursor. Now you can fetch the results and send to another collection. For an example aggregation query in mongo have a look here: http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/tutorial/aggregation-zip-code...
