Demonstrate Erlang's 'busy wait' effect on CPU utilization

Demonstrate Erlang's 'busy wait' effect on CPU utilization

How?

Just make Erlang to do some light-load task in a bunch of relatively short leaving processes. Calculating PI to 80th digit in batches per 10 procs with short, 8 ms, sleep in-between, to give schedulers a breath space, will do.

Running

Run erl with 8 schedulers and no busy waiting on schedulers at all.

Translate prismatic's schema.core errors to a human readable form. Use this for presenting validation errors to users. Don't use this for programming errors like a missing map key etc.

Tinder API Documentation

Tinder API documentation

Note: this was written in April/May 2014 and the API may has definitely changed since. I have nothing to do with Tinder, nor its API, and I do not offer any support for anything you may build on top of this. Proceed with caution

http://rsty.org/

I've sniffed most of the Tinder API to see how it works. You can use this to create bots (etc) very trivially. Some example python bot code is here -> https://gist.github.com/rtt/5a2e0cfa638c938cca59 (horribly quick and dirty, you've been warned!)
