Often, Hacker News saddens me.

This article provides some good insights on the Angular framework and a nice way to follow the code iteratively and understand the thought process. It gives a refreshing angle (no pun indented) to introduce the framework.

Why does this article only has 22 points when I see some articles like "How to get user feedback by giving away free coffee at Starbucks" or "What really happened at Company X while they farted some money" getting x10 points.

Oh well...

I find these very useful: https://github.com/nviennot/zsh-config/blob/master/lib/key-b...

ctrl+f is similar to "forward" in your browser. ctrl+b is similar to "back" in your browser.

Use the Alt key to navigate around: https://github.com/nviennot/tmux-config

So if the screen is really dense, say 20000px wide, you would need a 10kHz refresh rate. That contradict the contrast experiment.

I can't wait to be able to release the sources of this bad boy:

Expect it in April :)

EDIT: Notice in the search screenshot how I'm missing the R references. This problem is addressed by lxdvs in Apk2Gold.

Haha... I like this :)

So for you guys that are using this to decompile, say 450,000 android apps in a row, I highly recommend to use:

    ulimit -m $((1024*1024))

These tools sometimes flip out, both dex2jar, and jd-core.

This is quite awesome.

Meh... For my coding workflow, vim is the best tool out there. Eclipse/VStudio is completely useless in my world.

Side Note: pixels are not easy to parse, text is.

That reminds me of https://github.com/mongoid/moped/pull/92

One must take in consideration the environment of their users.

Try to look at a white screen while being in dark place. It hurts.

In Ruby, we often use the middleware pattern (the rack stack, sidekiq or faraday to name a few).

In the article, replace "Factory" with "Middleware" and "apply" with "call" and it's just like what we do in the ruby community.

Migrating data can be automatic: https://github.com/crowdtap/promiscuous/

We use this tool to replicate data across our main MongoDB database, and a PostgreSQL one (eventually consistent).

We haven't wrote a comprehensive readme yet. The only documentation we have so far are slides: http://viennot.biz/promiscuous

Stay tuned :)

This abstraction will definitely leak (or performance will be horrible, pick your poison):

* A big benefit for SQL are transactions, I have a hard time seeing anything done efficiently with MongoDB.

* Additionally, joins cannot be consistent with the MongoDB model (shards, reading from secondaries, ...).

While this idea is charming, I don't see this reaching any serious production environment.

But it's cool, Citus implemented a somewhat working prototype which is useful for some use cases. Kudos ! :)

2 Years ago, I contributed to a project that would do the same thing: https://github.com/ezyang/git-ftp Anybody knows the difference ?

For the nginx to node connection, it's a unix socket. No issue.

I personally prefer strace's options:

    -f -- follow forks, -ff -- with output into separate files
    -o file -- send trace output to FILE instead of stderr

Once, I had to maintain a website on godaddy, where I only had ftp access. I hated it. We would have interns working on it, and giving them the ftp password sucked. Having git as a proxy, hooked to sync master on ~/www and staging on ~/www/staging was awesome. If you want it: https://github.com/ezyang/git-ftp

A backup has not much value when stored in the same physical location with the original data. Any fire/flood/robbery will destroy all the data.

6. Computers. a value that a program or operating system assumes, or a course of action that a program or operating system will take, when the user or programmer specifies no overriding value or action.

I had to read it 5 times to understand the meaning...

From what I understand: the more dyno you have, the less each dyno can do. Which is funny when you think about it, becuause your Heroku bill increases linearly with the number of dyno.

It's an early version of it, but support iOS (arm), and MacOS (x86_x64, no i368).

I'd be happy to hear your comments :)

Nico.

Same here, I guess we are done. Not my fault ;)

There is something pretty cool that one can do with the FTP protocol: FXP transfers to perform an inter-server file transfer: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_eXchange_Protocol

You are right, and there are other issues: - I don't return the proper return value (should not return the number of bytes from the color strings) - I don't handle the case where writev() returns a number of bytes between 0 and count (e.g. You are writing 10Mb of data, a signal arrives, and you only wrote 5Mb -- the color thing will get all confused)

Indeed: https://github.com/sickill/stderred/pull/1

Ho... now it makes sense.. http://techcrunch.com/2011/05/12/swallowing-puke/

gem should be free.. I hate this idea. What if I want to fork the code ? And I don't want to put licenses all around the place when it comes to deployments.

I lost my previous account password that I haven't used in a very long time...

1) freeing memory automatically for you. That's under the table :)

2) Absolutely

3) No. it's just that memory management related issues are really nasty. On the other hand, adding a new printf() function won't do much harm.
