Re:Iranians Are Using Satellite TV to Beam in Banned Internet on Saturday April 23, 2016 @09:01PM (#11558114)
Nope! This is recipe for disaster. We need people like Mandela to do what he did with his prison guard :)

Eye for an eye, makes the whole world blind.

Re:Sharding Pinterest: How we scaled our MySQL fleet on Wednesday August 19, 2015 @06:36PM (#10089023)
I'm curious to know how Pinterest or Instagram decide about what goes inside each shard? Do they shard by user ids or something else? Secondly, would like to know if a shard gets more data than other shard, how do they load balance?

Re:Twilio Adds Low-Cost, Two-Way MMS Picture Messaging to Its API Cloud on Thursday September 18, 2014 @05:22PM (#8337704)
Bandwidth.com being a wholesale carrier of VoIP services is the primary carrier for Twilio, Plivo, Google Voice, etc...

Bandwidth delivers SMS over SMPP. Initially the MMS launch was due for mid October, seems they launched it ahead of time.

In the following weeks you'll see lots of different providers announcing their MMS capability.

Bandwidth should get the credit for their brilliant work.

Well, all the kudos should go to Bandwidth.com the primary carrier of of Twilio, Plivo, Google Voice, etc ...

Re:Elasticsearch โ€“ the definitive guide on Friday March 21, 2014 @02:33AM (#7440967)
Easiest way for me to learn Elasticsearch was through queries generated by Kibana [1] and playing with them inside Sense [2]. Kibana relies on Facets, version elasticsearch 1.0 introduces Aggregations, I would suggest using aggregations for your projects.

Is it possible to extract repeating patterns? example would be extracting repo name, number of stars, language and project description from GitHub Archive daily digests.
