Problem

When the directory structure of your Node.js application (not library!) has some depth, you end up with a lot of annoying relative paths in your require calls like:

const Article = require('../../../../app/models/article');

Those suck for maintenance and they're ugly.

petehunt / React sortable

Created December 9, 2013 22:30

Here's an example of React + jQuery UI sortable. The key thing to note is that we have the render() method do absolutely nothing and use componentDidUpdate() + React.renderComponent() to proxy updates through to the children. This lets us manage the DOM manually but still be able to use all the React goodies you know and love.

Map-side join example - Java code for joining two datasets - one large (tsv format), and one with lookup data (text), made available through DistributedCache

	This gist demonstrates how to do a map-side join, loading one small dataset from DistributedCache into a HashMap
	in memory, and joining with a larger dataset.

	Includes:
	---------
	1. Input data and script download
	2. Dataset structure review
	3. Expected results
	4. Mapper code
