Its been great event following the php unconference. Thank you guys for the discussions we had about software architecture. I gained a lot new knowledge about domain driving design and implementing tdd using phpunit.

Anyone interested in an follow up workshop in Berlin?

"More than a million people have now used our Wolfram|Alpha Personal Analytics for Facebook. And as part of our latest update, in addition to collecting some anonymized statistics, we launched a Data Donor program that allows people to contribute detailed data to us for research purposes.
A few weeks ago we decided to start analyzing all this data. And I have to say that if nothing else it’s been a terrific example of the power of Mathematica and the Wolfram Language for doing data science. (It’ll also be good fodder for the Data Science course I’m starting to create.)" ...

I guess, everyone likes call chaining, since it makes code damn easy to read code. Unfortunately, current ide's are missing features regarding autocompletion & type hinting - when calling method chains on inherited class instances. And no! I do not want to override all methods that return '$this' just for fixing the typehinting - THAT IS NOT PROPER OOP!
Hopefully +PhpStorm 6 fixes that issue.
(Thx. to +Tino Ehrich pointing me to that discussion, we had recently.)

Full Example: https://gist.github.com/4054380
Bug Tracker: http://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/WI-2225 

The issue:

// ==== simple chaining ===================
$youAreAwesome = new YouAreAwesome();
// beautiful code; easy to read
$youAreAwesome
        ->setYou('You')
        ->setAre('are')
        ->setAwesome('awesome')
        ->render()
        ->write()
;

// ==== extended chaining: ===================

//  class YouAreAweSomeNinja extends YouAreAwesome 

$youAreAwesomeNinja = new YouAreAwesomeNinja();
// beautiful code; easy to read - but ide type hinting fails!
$youAreAwesomeNinja
        ->setYou('You')
        ->setAre('are')
        ->setAwesome('awesome')
        ->setNinja('ninja') // ide: 'method not found in class!'
        ->render()
        ->write()

"Benefits of Corona

Corona has allowed us to achieve our initial goals of greater scalability, lower latency, no-downtime upgrades, and better resource management. It has also helped us achieve better scheduling fairness, faster job restartability, a cleaner codebase, and the ability to integrate with other systems for scheduling."(...)

Grid Computing with Couchbase
A common problem in large scale computing, is coordinating workers when they can be scattered across thousands of compute nodes. For workloads like this, atomic operators like increment and decrement reduce contention between distributed processes.In this talk I’ll show a full text analysis tool which ranks words in the Twitter firehose. By storing each token in a key based on its characteristics, we can provide word rankings both globally, as well as over time and space.For instance a tweet in English from San Francisco might say “Go Giants” so counters for 2012:go and usa-sf:2012-07:giants (among a few dozen others) are incremented. Even using memory like this, the counts from a full corpus of English text would only take a few gigabytes to hold.
The Twitter stream analysis can be run on any number of worker nodes, all connected via Couchbase Server. Attendees will have the opportunity to help contribute to the data gathering, and will be able to see data mining results in realtime."

Broken promises of HTML5 - HTML5DevCon San Francisco

"HTML5 has been quite the buzzword for a while now and as developers we are stuck in between a massive demand and a lack of technical support.

Devices and hardware that promised to be the bright future of HTML5 are not allowing us to do the things we want to. In this talk Chris Heilmann of Mozilla will show how we can juggle our demands and move forward towards a world where HTML5 is not a cool "nice to have" but the standard it set out to be. There is a lot to be defined and many great things brewing - we just need to push where movement is needed rather than going in lots of different directions."

ESTIMATE THE PROGRAMMER THINKS: 5 minutes.
It’s a minor thing, I just have to look up the exact syntax on google and fix it.

WHAT THE PROGRAMMER FORGOT:
It’s quite rare to find exactly the right information on the first try. Even if it is found, it probably needs some adjustments before it works. Add time for building, testing etc.

ACTUAL TIME: 2 hours

What Happens After You Click "Report" | Facebook

Facebook Safety hat eine Notiz mit dem Titel What Happens After You Click "Report" geschrieben. Du kannst den vollständigen Text hier lesen.

A simple example: Daily Active Users

redis.setbit(play:yyyy-mm-dd, user_id, 1)

"Performance comparison using 128 million users

The table below shows a comparison of daily unique action calculations calculated over 1 day, 7 days and 30 days for 128 million users. The 7 and 30 metrics are calculated by combining daily bitmaps.

Period Time (ms)
Daily 50.2
Weekly 392.0
Monthly 1624.8
Optimizations

In the above example, we can optimize the weekly and monthly computations by caching the calculated daily, weekly, monthly counts in Redis.

This is a very flexible approach. An added bonus of caching is that it allows fast cohort analysis, such as weekly unique users who are also mobile users — the intersection of a mobile users bitmap with a weekly active users bitmap. Or, if we want to compute rolling unique users over the last n days, having cached daily unique counts makes this easy — simply grab the previous n-1 days from your cache and union it with the real time daily count, which only takes 50ms."

"When we shipped #NewTwitter in September 2010, we built it around a web application architecture that pushed all of the UI rendering and logic to JavaScript running on our users’ browsers and consumed the Twitter REST API directly, in a similar way to our mobile clients. That architecture broke new ground by offering a number of advantages over a more traditional approach, but it lacked support for various optimizations available only on the server.

To improve the twitter.com experience for everyone, we've been working to take back control of our front-end performance by moving the rendering to the server. This has allowed us to drop our initial page load times to 1/5th of what they were previously and reduce differences in performance across browsers.

On top of the rendered pages, we asynchronously bootstrap a new modular JavaScript application to provide the fully-featured interactive experience our users expect. This new framework will help us rapidly develop new Twitter features, take advantage of new browser technology, and ultimately provide the best experience to as many people as possible." (...)
