Essentially they want to turn github to the next social media thing. I'm not complaining because I'm not on twitter,fb,insta anyways.

Have you used Presto for doing sql queries on kafka topics ? Would be interested to see some experience reports on using this in production. I have used Presto by the Hive connector and the results were pretty nice.

Yep, I would say so. In the past month or so, merging an MR has become as fast as github some times. Their real-time updates like the pipeline completion signalling still has some lag. But I think the plan to improve real-time updates is on

Excellent ! I was thinking a lot about this lately. Someone beat me to it .. dang it.

No framework as such. Just some tools from here and there - gorilla/mux + negroni + net/http.

zeromq is still very much in wide use. nanomsg doesn't have nearly as much documentation and community support as zeromq does.

Yes, I am aware that Peter had passed away. I thought that it was implied that the project is not maintained anymore, which is not true.

Wait, zeromq lost momentum ? When did that happen ?

On the 2nd point - what OP wanted to say was that students are just forced to learn the language without really understanding why it is what they are doing. Teachers just try to finish the syllabus, and students just want to get marks. Nobo

Yes, something like that. It doesn't do multilateration yet. But processes ADS-B and Mode-S messages.

Ah I see ! Gotcha :) Yes, it seems Go is smart enough not to eliminate those values entirely. I think this might be a better way to be sure that the function will be computed entirely. `_ = myatan2(-479, 123)` The result is same though. I w

Sorry, I might have misunderstood something. But OP said - " if you are computing sin/cos after atan2,", and I don't need any sin/cos computation after atan2. Just the atan2.

Thanks ! I will look into it :)

Author here. > I'm surprised it doesn't eliminate the BenchmarkAtan2 entirely: I'm sorry, could you clarify what you mean by "eliminate" here. Are you saying I shouldn't benchmark atan2 but something else ?

by agnivade 9y ago
Not really. My algorithm just needs atan2. Its a flight tracking algorithm which calculates velocity of the aircraft from the messages it broadcasts. EDIT: > then it's likely that what you are doing could be done with some regular v

You're welcome ! Glad it was helpful. :)

Haha. I know. My heart was pounding when I started the final benchmark .. hoping against hope that there will be some gains. But yea, knowledge is knowledge.

I thought the vue-cli( https://github.com/vuejs/vue-cli ) tool did a pretty good job of creating sane webpack configurations by asking just a few basic questions.
