So the data is stored in the internally developed Go database? How reliable is that?

Also, the dataset of that size shall be distributed. Why Cassandra did not fit?

Genuine questions - I am evaluating which tool to pick for my own stuff.

+3 please :-)

The idea of marrying "slow" Python and OLAP is disturbing my sleep!

Number of open tabs in Firefox 2051... :-)

Is this a record?

Can we have the same for Firefox?

I have 2020 open tabs!

In my place we routinly use PowerPoint presentations 10-25MB with embedded Excel, images, videos.

Can I assume based on your design that you will handle that?

Don't want to be snarky, but guys... may be you add smth else to design? Like what you can and can not do...

The above was feedback, btw I like the design :-)

I've been chewing the idea of adding Cassandra to my stack for quite some time as Cassandra seems like inpenetratable moster :-)

Any pointers how to start? Also, do you have any posts on how you added Cassandra to your back-end?

Nginx + Lua = YES, YES, YES, give us more... :-)

Same question - which open source VPN solution would you recommend?

I liked the idea of adding VPN layer to SSH, so would like to get as much advice as possible :-)

Which open source VPN solution would you recommend?

Did you use it in production?

Any pointers how to start? Good tutorials or walkthroughs?

I have heard good words about OSSEC but never tried it because of it's perception being:

- heavyweight;

- not actively developed.

Are my perceptions right? If no, how would you recommend to start using it? Any good tutorials or other pointers?

According to PyPy site it can run Django.

Was it tested or anyone used it in production to run Dj 1.4? Dj 1.5?

What industry are you in?

Genuine question - why in Geneva and why would you need a patent examiner for smth like that? US trolls?

Is my understanding correct that LaTex can not handle UTF-8?

Erik, great feedback

Thank you!

Can someone explain in plain language to a non-developer:

1. I have web site

2. I do not have FB app

3. I have FB page

4. I enable for users "Login with your FB account"

5. I have FB Like button on the web site

Am I vulnerable and if yes, what's the vector/consequences?

Edit: formatting

Egor,

what you will do after you discover and disclose all vulnerabilities [or at least the major ones]?

a) Now not, but the UI is very handy to have 1 page overview of the project. I used it for implementing Hyperion Essbase for business & financial planning in 1998 and in 2003-2005. So I managed a 6 mths / $200-300K project with just three reports.

b) Too lazy to un-dig from my archive to prove the point :-)

But the basic usage is the following:

1. Milestones

Milestone #1 Milestone #2 Milestone #3

Goal #1.1

Goal #1.2

Goal #1.3

Key - this shall fit one page, or you are doing this wrong.

Best used in conjunction with other GDPM templates (check the book and website).

2. Weekly Planning

Monday Tuesday

Task #1

Task #2

Task #3

Actually, to be fair and honest, Trello's main UI design looks suspiciously similar to the Excel templates that I used for project management 10 years ago [and freely shared with many people], which in turn were inspired by GDPM (Goal Directed Project Management] book [1]. The UI design was listed in the book's appendix.

[1] http://www.amazon.com/Goal-Directed-Project-Management-Techn... This is the 4th edition of the book, the first was published more than 10 years ago.

quote "Goal Directed Project Management (GDPM) is a unique methodology that has been developed and refined by the authors over a period of more than 20 years. In this time, organizations all over the world have adopted it as a standard approach."

Unless there is a pixel for pixel copy, why don't we stop implicating that similar UI designs and ideas is an offense and wrongdoing?

How/why is that?

Let's say that the legal entity is registered in Switzerland or China or Russia for that matter.

This company sells some goods [virtual/physical] through a web site [for example using Amazon 1-Click patent] to a person, who happens to be an American citizen, with payment made by credit card.

How this company will become "subject to these rules and ridiculous software patents"? In which court will this case be processed? How the court decision will be enforced?

Excellent summary - can pick and choose to fit specific case.

Also, design is nice for the eyes.

The link above is to Ruby ORM "nobrainer", may be edit your comment to clarify.

No Python ORM :-(

Thanks for the context.

Artem, the approach you guys are using is really EXCELLENT!

I think that a bit of a disconnect here may be because some OPs might be used to 'compiling' code versus 'compiling' data angle that you are using.

This is especially evident by make dependencies discussion with lars512.

To give a simple specific example: I have a dataset of say 5000-50000 SKUs that are aggregated across 9-12 dimensions. My final report/analysis uses 3 scenarios. Now one sub-set of one scenario has changed [that's the raw input] - of course running 'data compilation' by using data that changed and ONLY what depends on it is the most effective&efficient approach.

Just my 2 financial cents...

Ditching corporate speak, what you probably want to say is that this is not your priority.

What are your priorities?

Every tool has its purpose and shall be used accordingly.

LinkedIn - sold you to recruiters. OK, I got 1'000+ connections, most with the people I never met [80%?], but who heard about me, or we share connections, or work in similar fields [finance, multinational company, senior management, etc]. I mainly use LI as an extended address book and public CV. So any recruiter, who calls me, knows pretty much all about my skills / experience / etc. Got bunch of interviews through LI. Yep, quite often see some spammy stupid invitations to connect. So what? Just don't accept those. I login 2-3 times per month.

Facebook - FB is a timekiller, so I log in 2-3 times per month to kill some time, exchange with people I know.

Twitter - info flood, cutting access to API, sold you to advertisers, etc, etc. Sorry, never bothered to learn how to use it. Never made one tweet. Have no time for Twitter, since I am already using FB 2-3 times per month.

To sum it all up - just understand how the tool can be useful for your needs and use accordingly. No overlap, don't use the tool or build your own.

404 for me.

Make sure to update your nginx/0.7.67, there was a number of security related upgrades.

Don't use the one in ports. Compile or if you are on Ubuntu:

    sudo -s

    nginx=stable # use nginx=development for latest development version

    add-apt-repository ppa:nginx/$nginx

    apt-get update 

    apt-get install nginx

;-)

Would be great that you do the Linux book whatever the title may be! )
