Depending on their needs and options, people are using Spark, Hive, Kafka or shell scripts to ingest data into hadoop.

If you don't like Nifi UI but you still want to make use of its advantages, you could try https://kylo.io/ , which runs on top of Nifi and it has a much simpler UI.

That's another reason for putting another router after your ISP's box. As long as I'm not an admin on that one, they can do a lot of shady things. Also using a DNS server with external forwarders (PiHole is great for that).

It's kind of mandatory to use Windows in certain envs.

I usually do text processing in Bash, Notepad++ and Excel. Each has its own pros and cons, that's why I usually combine them.

Here you have the tools I use in Bash:

grep, tail, head, cat, cut, less, awk, sed, sort, uniq, wc, xargs, watch ...

East 2nd, East 2nd, at least this time.
I wouldn't be surprised to read this kind of news about some of the Eastern Europe countries in the future.

ricardo.ch (similar to craigslist) is doing the same in Switzerland. I think this gives the user the impression that he has to be responsible about his actions on the website.

It looks like a faster version of HDFS since it's written in C++ (vs Java).

Another important aspect is that is using SSD + SATA(I suppose) , which could be a better option than standard SATA/SSD or LV cache using SATA + SSD.

Even if it's just a new thing, if it proves to be faster it may be implemented in Hadoop ecosystem in the future. HDFS has a lot of features being a mature piece of software but it lacks on the response time.

I think it would be a great exercise to shadow your Project Manager(if you have one) for a while. If you don't have one, maybe just try to virtually manage the project you're working on. You'll find that the PM job is not really what you expected to be.

I'm a sysadmin and I've tried to simulate this kind of change and I found that there are a lot of bureaucracy tasks which I don't really like :). If you ask me, the proper career path has the "team lead" position as the first step, which brings you closer to a "* manager" feeling.

Good luck!!

It should be safe enough, with a few exceptions, one of those being this exploit: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12171547

This guy says that if the webpage "asks" for another's page credentials, lastpass plugin will give it. Every character/keystroke in specific fields could be catched/logged , here you have an example from ... eBay : https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12000820

Anyway, this was already fixed and pushed to the users, as the guy mentions in his post.

It uses a method named "Divide Et Impera" I think. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divide_and_rule

It would be cooler with a counter :D
That's not the point :D. It works better than a simple bookmark, with slide to change from page to comments, etc.
For me is cooler this way, because it offers visibility on app list and when I have a few free moments, I look at my phone apps and I say "Great, let's see what's new on HN" :D .
Have you tried any mobile app? There are a lot of great apps for HackerNews. I use HackerNews2 for my Android device and HackerNode for my iPhone.
I still use it with classic skin.
