How to stream the London 2012 Olympics

How to stream the London 2012 Olympics

There have been several HOWTOs posted regarding streaming the 2012 Olympics using HTTP / SOCKS proxies via SSH and other similar methods. None of these actually work using the latest Flash on Mountain Lion (with Firefox, Chrome or Safari). Additionally, the third-party streaming sites don't provide BBC's amazing interface, which lets you quickly skip to individual competitors and events. However, setting up an OpenVPN server does work, with some tweaks. You'll get the exact same UX that people in England receive.

Setting Up Clojure on OS X

Setting Up Clojure on OS X

I spent a lot of time trying to find a pretty optimal (for me) setup for Clojure… at the same time I was trying to dive in and learn it. This is never optimal; you shouldn't be fighting the environment while trying to learn something.

I feel like I went through a lot of pain searching Google, StackOverflow, blogs, and other sites for random tidbits of information and instructions.

This is a comprehensive "what I learned and what I ended up doing" that will hopefully be of use to others and act as a journal for myself if I ever have to do it again. I want to be very step-by-step and explain what's happening (and why) at each step.

Step 1: Getting Clojure (1.3)

MapReduce with the RawClient
RawClient c = PBRiakClientFactory.getInstance().newClient(PBClientConfig.defaults());
MapReduceResult r = new SearchMapReduce(c, SEARCH_BUCKET_NAME, "foo:zero")
.addMapPhase(new NamedJSFunction("Riak.mapValuesJson"))
.addReducePhase(new NamedErlangFunction("riak_kv_mapreduce", "reduce_sort"))
.execute();
%% The IRiakClient impl is just a factory that returns a MapReduce subclass initialised with a RawClient
%% You can therefore create an IndexMapReduce (or whatever) using you configured RawClient.
