Markdown and reStructuredText

GitHub supports several lightweight markup languages for documentation; the most popular ones (generally, not just at GitHub) are Markdown and reStructuredText. Markdown is sometimes considered easier to use, and is often preferred when the purpose is simply to generate HTML. On the other hand, reStructuredText is more extensible and powerful, with native support (not just embedded HTML) for tables, as well as things like automatic generation of tables of contents.

Ok, I geeked out, and this is probably more information than you need. But it completely answers the question. Sorry. ☺

Locally, I'm at this commit:

When I added FIRST/NEXT/LAST, it was idiomatic but not quite so fast. This makes it faster. Another little bit of masak++'s program.

Paralellism in ES and Hadoop/Spark

1 shard corresponds to 1 Spark partition.

Reading from ES: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/hadoop/current/arch.html#arch-reading . Beware of increasing the number of shards on ES for performance reasons:

A common concern (read optimization) for improving performance is to increase the number of shards and thus increase the number of tasks on the Hadoop side. Unless such gains are demonstrated through benchmarks, we recommend against such a measure since in most cases, an Elasticsearch shard can easily handle data streaming to a Hadoop or Spark task.

Writing from ES: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/hadoop/current/arch.html#arch-writing . Write performance can be increased by having more partitions:

elasticsearch-hadoop detects the number of (primary) shards where the write will occur and distributes the writes between these. The more splits/partitions available, the more mappers/reducers can write data in parallel to Elasticsear

OpenWrt-router as 802.1x-client

This use-case is a pretty rare one, but in some circumstances, it can be very helpful. For example when you live in a student dormatory which only offers one 802.1x-encrypted LAN-port in your room, but you want to run your own wifi-network to be online with other clients, too, like your laptop or smartphone. In this case, normal routers with stock firmware won't help you out because most don't support this networking protocol. OpenWrt on the other hand offers you the possibility to connect your router (you could buy this one if you don't already have a suiting router) to the 802.1x-network via WAN and enable you to have an own, independent network. Here's how.

Important: before you attempt to do this, it is NECESSARY to ask your network admin if he/she is okay with your usage scenario. This can cause some trouble if you do it without permission, as many 802.1x-networks aim to prevent this exact use-case.

So here's the deal

This project is a tiny compiler for a very simple language consisting of boolean expression.

The language has two constants: 1 for true and 0 for false, and 4 logic gates: ! (not), & (and), | (or), and ^ (xor).

It can also use parentheses to manage priorities.

Here is its grammar in BNF format:

expr ::= "0" | "1"
