"We believe big data should be simple. Apache® Spark™ made a big step towards this goal.
Databricks makes Spark easy through a cloud-based integrated workspace."
"Recording a terminal session may be important in helping someone learn a process, sharing information in an understandable way, and also presenting a series of commands in a proper manner. Whatever the purpose, there are many times when copy-pasting text from the terminal won't be very helpful while capturing a video of the process is quite far-fetched and may not be always possible. In this quick guide, we will take a look at the easiest way to record and share a terminal session in .gif format."
"This article is about lexmachine, a library I wrote to help you write great lexers in Go. If you are looking to write a golang lexer or a lexer in golang this article is for you."
"In this book I'll explain "Scalable C," which kicks C into the 21st Century. We use actors, message passing, code generation, and other tricks. I've been writing C for 30 years. It's never been this fun and productive. - Pieter Hintjens"
"
Raft is a consensus algorithm that is designed to be easy to understand. It's equivalent to Paxos in fault-tolerance and performance. The difference is that it's decomposed into relatively independent subproblems, and it cleanly addresses all major pieces needed for practical systems. We hope Raft will make consensus available to a wider audience, and that this wider audience will be able to develop a variety of higher quality consensus-based systems than are available today."
"GNU Octave is a high-level interpreted language, primarily intended for numerical computations. It provides capabilities for the numerical solution of linear and nonlinear problems, and for performing other numerical experiments. It also provides extensive graphics capabilities for data visualization and manipulation. Octave is normally used through its interactive command line interface, but it can also be used to write non-interactive programs. The Octave language is quite similar to Matlab so that most programs are easily portable."
