This is a little challenge to find out which tools programmers use to get their everyday tasks done quickly.

You got your hands on some data that was leaked from a social network and you want to help the poor people.

Luckily you know a government service to automatically block a list of credit cards.

The service is a little old school though and you have to upload a CSV file in the exact format. The upload fails if the CSV file contains invalid data.

The CSV files should have two columns, Name and Credit Card. Also, it must be named after the following pattern:

YYYYMMDD.csv.

Notes on Meteor for CS 294-101

Brief notes on Meteor for CS 294-101. Many of the key architectural ideas in Meteor are described at https://www.meteor.com/projects.

  1. BSD as example of great system design. Application primitives: processes run by a scheduler, sockets, sys calls, virtual memory, mbufs. What makes something a platform. Unix vs Multics.

  2. History of application architectures. Mainframes (e.g. IBM 360 / 3270), client-server (e.g. Win32), web (e.g. LAMP), cloud-client. Oscillation of where the software runs. Thin vs thick clients, data vs presentation on the wire. Changes driven by massive forces (cheap CPUs, ubiquitous internet, mobile). New architecture for each era.

  3. What it takes to make modern UI/UX. Mobile. Live updating. Collaboration. No refresh button. All drive the need for โ€œrealtimeโ€ or โ€œreactiveโ€ system. Very different from HTTP era.

  4. Four questions: 1 โ€” how do we move data around; 2 โ€” where does it come from; 3 โ€” where do we put it; 4 โ€” how do we use it?

Solving "one database per user" in CouchDB/IrisCouch/Cloudant

Background

Security in a single CouchDB can only be set up to do either:

  • Everyone can read/write everything (admin party)
  • Everyone can read, some can write
  • Some can read everything, and those same people can write everything

So in the very common situation where you want user data to be private, the current best practice is to give every user a database. This sounds nuts at first, but it turns out that databases are cheap in CouchDB; Cloudant boasts that 100k databases in a single Couch is not uncommon (source).

Whiteboard Picture Cleaner - Shell one-liner/script to clean up and beautify photos of whiteboards!

Description

This simple script will take a picture of a whiteboard and use parts of the ImageMagick library with sane defaults to clean it up tremendously.

The script is here:

#!/bin/bash
convert "$1" -morphology Convolve DoG:15,100,0 -negate -normalize -blur 0x1 -channel RBG -level 60%,91%,0.1 "$2"

a simple git branching model

a simple git branching model (written in 2013)

This is a very simple git workflow. It (and variants) is in use by many people. I settled on it after using it very effectively at Athena. GitHub does something similar; Zach Holman mentioned it in this talk.

Update: Woah, thanks for all the attention. Didn't expect this simple rant to get popular.

Tutorial for running Meteor in Windows using Vagrant

Tutorial: Meteor in Windows using Vagrant

BEFORE YOU CONTINUE:

  • Now, Meteor runs in any Windows without any line of this tutorial. Just download the Meteor binary! Yay!!
  • mrt is no longer used with Meteor 1.0

These days some people were discussing at meteor-talk group about running Meteor at Windows and Iโ€™ve recommended them using Vagrant. Itโ€™s a very developer-friendly piece of software that creates a virtual machine (VM) which let you run any operating system wanted and connect to it without big efforts of configuration (just make the initial installation and you have it working).

Many packages (I've tested) for running Meteor+Vagrant fails because Meteor writes its mongodb file and also other files inside local build folder into a shared folder between the Windows host and the Linux guest, and it simply does not work. So I've put my brain to work and found a solution: do symlinks inside the VM (but do not use ln. Use mount so git can follow it). Itโ€™s covered on
