  1. Done at CMU. Accepted Twitter offer (twoffer?). Moving to SF in January. Advice on renting in SF gleefully accepted.
  2. RT @jbarratt: "Then there's Perl's pack. It's sort of like a sprintf designed by an assembly programmer who hates you:" /by @rjbs
  3. Finally, annotations in Google Analytics: http://bit.ly/5heqeI No calendar integration, api, or range events. Maybe with time...
  4. Beers with @grouchyoldcoot. Topics from Hadoop vs HPC, to Twitter, to swordfighting, to Geoffroi de Charny. Should've done this earlier.
  5. @erickerr I think Nathan Hale did say something to that effect.
  6. @tlipcon congrats todd!
  7. @akitada check out PIG-760 for stored schemas (it needs a minor tweak but mostly ready to go for flat schemas).
  8. RT @neil_conway: Nice WSJ article on Simpson's Paradox: careless data aggregation can be very misleading. http://bit.ly/8HOF4W
  9. @akitada can you share what are you having trouble expressing through Pig?
  10. RT @ahfeel: RT @jbarratt: Oh noes, an infectious new term has hit the office. Pair Programming == "Brogramming".
  11. No access to Hadoop cluster, 3 days before capstone deadline. Looks like I'll have get to test my stuff ec2 after all.
  12. RT @lemire: Review of Collaborative Filtering algorithms (Open Access article) http://bit.ly/6SkQmn
  13. @dave_andersen it's cool as long as coffee stain tolerance goes both ways :)
  14. Watch @brianker's NoSQL talk http://bit.ly/5FCG6j if you want to learn nothing about NoSQL. Love echochambers.
  15. Someone found my blog with "load hive data using pig." Charitable explanation: combine Hive's metadata with Pig's language. Not a bad idea.
  16. RT @priyacmu @datacenter: World of Warcraft's Back End: 11.5 M users, 10 Data Centers, 75,000 Cores #wow http://bit.ly/6H4qTL
  17. @peteskomoroch if you are on trunk, don't miss the new Accumulator interface.
  18. @philz42 you know what happens when you combine right and left joins? You get nulls on both sides...
  19. http://bit.ly/611ccT @CurtMonash compares NoSQL movement to Ron Paul campaign. It's funny because it's true...
  20. RT @Hippotas: The Datacenter as a Computer: An Introduction to the Design of Warehouse-Scale Machines. by Google. http://bit.ly/2vdiJn
