00:01:43 ◼   ► going to start taking a GPS into account for their search ranking so they will [TS]

00:01:47 ◼   ► give you a slightly higher rank if your site is SSL [TS]

00:01:51 ◼   ► they said it's not going to be a big boost and it should only affect fewer [TS]

00:01:55 ◼   ► than 1% of global core areas but the trying to encourage sites to switch your [TS]

00:01:59 ◼   ► major GPA CBS News exactly we're talking about a show about marking things is [TS]

00:02:06 ◼   ► secure insecure for customers instead I was suggesting that they need to work on [TS]

00:02:12 ◼   ► the people who own the websites specter that the great way to do that to hit [TS]

00:02:16 ◼   ► them where it hurts hey wheels ever so slightly hurt your search ranking if you [TS]

00:02:19 ◼   ► don't use a GPS so suddenly having a secure server become something that [TS]

00:02:24 ◼   ► every SEO persons are you just gotta do that you get that extra of whatever [TS]

00:02:28 ◼   ► percent based in a way yeah this is a using that power for good stead of evil [TS]

00:02:34 ◼   ► I think the best part is you don't act like they don't have to actually ever [TS]

00:02:39 ◼   ► change it all they have to do is say we will probably change starting on this [TS]

00:02:43 ◼   ► date and that is SEO is all based on you know some evidence and mostly like [TS]

00:02:49 ◼   ► intuition and guessing and outdated information like you know who do and BS [TS]

00:02:55 ◼   ► that that is common wisdom where they also so you don't have to actually see [TS]

00:03:02 ◼   ► rain or + ranked anything they could have to say they will and that's that's [TS]

00:03:06 ◼   ► enough and they said it's gonna be like a lightweight things these these quotes [TS]

00:03:09 ◼   ► from them less weight than other signals such as high quality content in terms of [TS]

00:03:13 ◼   ► the search rankings but they all said they may decide to strengthen the signal [TS]

00:03:17 ◼   ► because they want to encourage said you know that they're threatening to like [TS]

00:03:20 ◼   ► this it was only a small factory and that's to not scare people who you know [TS]

00:03:24 ◼   ► are worried that the need to get us all right now but I said but we may decide [TS]

00:03:29 ◼   ► change their search algorithm to favor row they want more customers that only [TS]

00:03:33 ◼   ► bad but website owners will do whatever it takes because Google is still pretty [TS]

00:03:37 ◼   ► much the only important game in town when it comes to web site search [TS]

00:03:41 ◼   ► eights let me ask a genuine question for a website like mine or either of yours [TS]

00:03:46 ◼   ► where there's no interactivity it's just a series of pages and there's no forms [TS]

00:03:52 ◼   ► or anything like that what's the advantage of going secure what it what [TS]

00:03:56 ◼   ► is gonna get snoot well there are there are a handful of privacy advantages to [TS]

00:04:01 ◼   ► it and then one of the biggest is it still the case chat room that HTTPS [TS]

00:04:06 ◼   ► pages don't serve refers when you look out of them are into them I forget what [TS]

00:04:09 ◼   ► I don't think there's no referred it which is annoying for analytics packages [TS]

00:04:14 ◼   ► but I don't have a date anyway I I think it's mostly you know that there are some [TS]

00:04:19 ◼   ► benefits here but there you know for content sites like blogs everything I [TS]

00:04:24 ◼   ► think the benefit is pretty small right that that's what I probably wouldn't do [TS]

00:04:30 ◼   ► it even if they say oh you're drinking gonna go down by whatever like I mean [TS]

00:04:34 ◼   ► it's kind of unfair from i think is no reason I started at small and you know [TS]

00:04:38 ◼   ► but like for like a said there's nothing there's no log in there's no [TS]

00:04:42 ◼   ► authentication there's no cookies on my site there's nothing related to my site [TS]

00:04:46 ◼   ► that would be to be kept from prying eyes and so I probably wouldn't go and [TS]

00:04:51 ◼   ► sell bud that's mostly because it's kind of a hassle and usually costs money and [TS]

00:04:57 ◼   ► there I mentioned last show at the Electronic Frontier Foundation's plan to [TS]

00:05:01 ◼   ► give away free a cell certificates to anybody who wants them to try to [TS]

00:05:07 ◼   ► encourage more people to to have significant in this is our site and less [TS]

00:05:11 ◼   ► the same as I think it is again two days but look at this stuff but let's encrypt [TS]

00:05:19 ◼   ► and decrypt as a new certificate authority it's free automated an open [TS]

00:05:24 ◼   ► arriving summer 2015 abroad says brought to you by yet maybe it is nothing that I [TS]

00:05:29 ◼   ► was talking about anyway if I sell tickets were free and slightly less [TS]

00:05:35 ◼   ► hassle I probably would do is what the hell I can set it up you know and [TS]

00:05:39 ◼   ► and I would probably redirect people they should be BS like why not you know [TS]

00:05:42 ◼   ► why not get the free time cool because why not make people feel slightly better [TS]

00:05:46 ◼   ► the only reason why not is because it's expensive and has long hopefully they [TS]

00:05:50 ◼   ► can reduce those down to about the same house as you know just having a hosting [TS]

00:05:54 ◼   ► account of all I'd probably do it on some level I do kind of I'm a little [TS]

00:06:01 ◼   ► skeptical about the possible effects might have on smaller self hosted sites [TS]

00:06:06 ◼   ► because it's it's now like you know if if there if it wasn't hard enough battle [TS]

00:06:10 ◼   ► to be like a cellphone cellphone site now you have to deal with if you don't [TS]

00:06:15 ◼   ► have a cell you're not like you're not rank of the big kids anymore so now I [TS]

00:06:19 ◼   ► feel like they're in in a in a small way not not maybe not a huge fan in a small [TS]

00:06:23 ◼   ► way this is going to reinforce like the mediums of the world and and make it [TS]

00:06:30 ◼   ► that much harder for so many people out there to to have an independent prints [TS]

00:06:34 ◼   ► on the web just raised the bar like then you know hosting providers like you know [TS]

00:06:39 ◼   ► the various WordPress blog hosting services and spaces ok that's where the [TS]

00:06:45 ◼   ► bar is now then we basically have to kind of like how you know Squarespace or [TS]

00:06:49 ◼   ► whatever they give you a free domain names that they didn't used to be the [TS]

00:06:52 ◼   ► bar you just have you know Mark it at this page dot com that they'll finally [TS]

00:06:56 ◼   ► got now I got out man-to-man and now the hosting for is that alright that's where [TS]

00:06:59 ◼   ► the bar is now will give you a domain with with your hosting purchase and will [TS]

00:07:03 ◼   ► set it up for you and like you know it's alright well as hell that thing will set [TS]

00:07:07 ◼   ► that up for you like there's no reason they can automate going through this you [TS]

00:07:10 ◼   ► know that's a group that Argo whatever just it makes it harder to be a [TS]

00:07:15 ◼   ► full-featured hosting provider that provider to go up but I think kind of [TS]

00:07:18 ◼   ► raising the bar for the entire web as the whole planet so I don't think it'll [TS]

00:07:21 ◼   ► be that bad so any other follow up about perhaps Google authenticator [TS]

00:07:29 ◼   ► about to them putting the space between six digit number a couple people asked I [TS]

00:07:34 ◼   ► didn't mention this but it's worth addressing this question [TS]

00:07:37 ◼   ► what if they put a space between the three digit numbers and the answer to [TS]

00:07:44 ◼   ► that is it shouldn't matter because that's another example of like say you [TS]

00:07:48 ◼   ► know if you're doing some simple task and you ask yourself for even a moment [TS]

00:07:53 ◼   ► what about this simple task what what what things about the simple task to a [TS]

00:07:58 ◼   ► look at to decide whether I did a good job on it and is usually very few things [TS]

00:08:02 ◼   ► so if if the thing you're doing a showing a number of things you can think [TS]

00:08:05 ◼   ► about is that it's kinda hard to transcribe message to get six digit [TS]

00:08:08 ◼   ► number will be split up another thing I think about you how to text field is [TS]

00:08:12 ◼   ► accepting a six digit number don't worry about spaces I get rid of this basis you [TS]

00:08:35 ◼   ► parsing a little credit card numbers of phone numbers of the worst it's like [TS]

00:08:38 ◼   ► perhaps the simplest programming test possible to strip of digits and it's [TS]

00:08:44 ◼   ► inexcusable both on the client side on the server side not to do that anyway [TS]

00:08:48 ◼   ► tells you right digits only here like a melee just think that entire website and [TS]

00:08:52 ◼   ► everyone who made it is terrible and so which do you think is worse out of these [TS]

00:15:14 ◼   ► health so member when the brutal attack was coming around the pool attack was [TS]

00:15:21 ◼   ► for those of you who missed it it was basically one of the many as a cell [TS]

00:15:24 ◼   ► shortcomings and vulnerabilities discovered in the past year and it [TS]

00:15:28 ◼   ► basically completely breaks SSL v3 [TS]

00:15:32 ◼   ► you you really should disable SSL three and four people to use TLS that that's [TS]

00:15:38 ◼   ► the gross overview please you know research if you want more details on [TS]

00:15:42 ◼   ► that score poodle anyway the problem I had discovered last night when somebody [TS]

00:15:46 ◼   ► kept me saying hey my podcast feed doesn't work in overcast dates and they [TS]

00:15:53 ◼   ► had recently upgraded their SSL cipher suite and they are serving a podcast [TS]

00:15:58 ◼   ► universal cell because they wanted to go all of us all so as we were saying 10 [TS]

00:16:02 ◼   ► minutes ago that makes makes some sense anyway I discovered through this is that [TS]

00:16:06 ◼   ► my PHP feed crawlers but you're using a lip curled on the books [TS]

00:16:12 ◼   ► itself uses OpenSSL someone somewhere along the line basically refused to use [TS]

00:16:18 ◼   ► anything but as a cell v3 and seemed to be totally ignoring any configuration [TS]

00:16:22 ◼   ► files I passed them to the contrary and do some quick searching around the web [TS]

00:16:27 ◼   ► last night and trying to fix this problem I discovered there's actually [TS]

00:16:30 ◼   ► quite a lot of people complaining about this problem that like whatever they're [TS]

00:16:33 ◼   ► doing what they're PHP absolutely using curl to crawl something they keep [TS]

00:16:38 ◼   ► breaking undersides of disabled 23 which is really obnoxious and basically there [TS]

00:16:45 ◼   ► is no good fix yet that I can find I'm hoping to find at least a crappy fix in [TS]

00:16:49 ◼   ► the meantime but right-hander has basically no good fix like I basically [TS]

00:16:52 ◼   ► can't make this work [TS]

00:16:53 ◼   ► it only if this is not the first problem I've had with PHP is version of as a [TS]

00:16:58 ◼   ► cell has escrow using it being totally out of date and and being a problem like [TS]

00:17:02 ◼   ► this [TS]

00:17:02 ◼   ► secondarily so overcast right now crawls something along the lines of two hundred [TS]

00:17:08 ◼   ► and forty thousand RSS feeds every few minutes and it's it's doing a lot of [TS]

00:17:14 ◼   ► crawling of these feeds and you know it does it does the basic web stuff to to [TS]

00:17:19 ◼   ► hopefully get a 304 response with most features but you know obviously it's [TS]

00:17:24 ◼   ► still doing a whole lot of network requests and then a whole lot of kids [TS]

00:17:27 ◼   ► come back and then I do you know basic and b5 checking to see if it's as if [TS]

00:17:31 ◼   ► this is actually changed and then decoded the XML and do everything there [TS]

00:17:36 ◼   ► and and so on the defeat crawlers are by far the vast majority of the costs of [TS]

00:17:50 ◼   ► almost all the RAM almost all the CPU power on the servers it's it's almost [TS]

00:17:54 ◼   ► all being taken up by the actual serving of the application and doing the sink [TS]

00:17:59 ◼   ► requests and everything is almost nothing it's it's no it's nothing on the [TS]

00:18:03 ◼   ► service at all this is all doing to try to solve these problems at once I did an [TS]

00:18:09 ◼   ► experiment last night I tried writing a basic feed polar in node what the main [TS]

00:18:17 ◼   ► problem I have with these with the street crime problem with PHP PHP a [TS]

00:18:22 ◼   ► single-threaded [TS]

00:18:23 ◼   ► you know it's single process single threaded the crawlers all run on the you [TS]

00:18:28 ◼   ► know as as background tasks like terminal tasks being run by supervisor [TS]

00:18:33 ◼   ► at a great little Python thing supervisor d so it's all being run by [TS]

00:18:37 ◼   ► that and then being stuck you manage the whole thing so the Beanstalk you has all [TS]

00:18:42 ◼   ► these tasks then these PHP Q processing process he's basically are they're [TS]

00:18:46 ◼   ► popping stuff all the things we've done right now this is running something [TS]

00:18:52 ◼   ► along the lines of two hundred and forty processes simultaneously across 7 bps 07 [TS]

00:18:58 ◼   ► so roughly 240 simultaneous consumers making this happen and that's you know [TS]

00:19:04 ◼   ► crushing these servers and taking up so much RAM and it's it's just really [TS]

00:19:09 ◼   ► really obnoxious and if this was the best way to do it I would just suck it [TS]

00:19:13 ◼   ► up and just deal with the cost accordingly in India with all the [TS]

00:19:16 ◼   ► complexity accordingly but I decided you know what maybe PHP is not the best tool [TS]

00:19:21 ◼   ► for this job and why do you 7740 process like how big these processes I don't [TS]

00:19:29 ◼   ► know why I think there's something like forty or fifty magazine that but it's [TS]

00:19:33 ◼   ► you know it's it's under a hundred but still like the math isn't working out [TS]

00:19:38 ◼   ► like so why can't you have two hundred and forty fifty make processes on one [TS]

00:19:41 ◼   ► machine how is that not a lot and they should should be even less busy year for [TS]

00:19:46 ◼   ► king of all the memory from the parent process is shared and the only thing [TS]

00:19:49 ◼   ► that's different is the pages you dirty during the the child process doing it to [TS]

00:19:53 ◼   ► work right I'm not doing a fork situation here maybe I should be looking [TS]

00:19:59 ◼   ► to that is running independent processes alright so this is just you know it's [TS]

00:20:08 ◼   ► crushing the CPUs in the machine its CPU seems to be the main limiting factor [TS]

00:20:13 ◼   ► here not Ram RAM RAM prevent me from running to meet him on 11 box [TS]

00:20:17 ◼   ► economically but it seems like CPU power from a limiting factor here and I don't [TS]

00:20:23 ◼   ► honestly I have looked into exactly like what the most you know the single [TS]

00:20:27 ◼   ► biggest function is PHP is notoriously very hard to profile [TS]

00:20:30 ◼   ► know PHP profile not even with the the Facebook thing there is one there there [TS]

00:20:36 ◼   ► there there are a couple of profilers but they all kind of suck in different [TS]

00:20:39 ◼   ► ways they're kind of hard to run in production yet it's kind of an ass the [TS]

00:20:43 ◼   ► whole situation prevailing in debugging anyway which is itself a problem but [TS]

00:20:47 ◼   ► anyway so what I really wanted here are some kind of parallelism that was not [TS]

00:20:53 ◼   ► just process parallelism you know some like there's no way there's no reason I [TS]

00:20:56 ◼   ► need to have a process sitting there taking up RAM taking up all the OS [TS]

00:21:02 ◼   ► overhead of having a process to be sitting there waiting for each feed [TS]

00:21:06 ◼   ► individual data processing now you can do the one way you can do parallelism in [TS]

00:21:12 ◼   ► PHP is you can do curl multi and i actually a while ago I wrote the feed [TS]

00:21:18 ◼   ► crawler to do this and it's less likely it is really not a good day so that is [TS]

00:21:26 ◼   ► the one thing you can do multiple things at once is you can execute a multi [TS]

00:21:31 ◼   ► handled curl resource together at once but there's so many issues that need to [TS]

00:21:36 ◼   ► maintain the main reason is it's incredibly inefficient because you know [TS]

00:21:40 ◼   ► you can't you can't provide a constant pipeline a constant Q saying okay as [TS]

00:21:44 ◼   ► soon as you finish one had one from this list to it you have to like you know cue [TS]

00:21:49 ◼   ► up ten frontier all 10 the slowest one will block called everything else and [TS]

00:21:54 ◼   ► then once you finished all 10 then I can give you more things to do so there's [TS]

00:21:58 ◼   ► just a whole bunch of little problems like PHP again is is really not the best [TS]

00:22:02 ◼   ► tool for this job I heard note was good at this stuff and they really are [TS]

00:22:06 ◼   ► looking into know it was because the reasonable one [TS]

00:22:09 ◼   ► get her camo project that missus camera project that I mentioned last week to do [TS]

00:22:16 ◼   ► an SSL proxy for serving big files that's written a note and I figured I [TS]

00:22:20 ◼   ► want to at least look into what it takes to host this to myself because I can do [TS]

00:22:24 ◼   ► on Heroku but it's probably gonna be really expensive taste hosted also [TS]

00:22:29 ◼   ► secondarily i you know I'm a huge fan of of the the event driven parallelism kind [TS]

00:22:35 ◼   ► of model like that I like that alot i've seen work a lot like [TS]

00:22:39 ◼   ► almost every good web tool these days that is that scales really well is the [TS]

00:22:45 ◼   ► event of a model memcache look at engine X obviously note itself this is really a [TS]

00:22:50 ◼   ► very good model and it's very practical for hosting big things like this because [TS]

00:22:53 ◼   ► you're able to make very very good use of server resources without risking over [TS]

00:23:00 ◼   ► running them too much I decided let me see how like I already know JavaScript a [TS]

00:23:05 ◼   ► little bit I i'm not a job expert by any means the whole thing people do these [TS]

00:23:09 ◼   ► days with all the crazy prototype stuff and try try to check system under Jobs [TS]

00:23:13 ◼   ► clunky is crap that's more than these days I know I know I know I've heard it [TS]

00:23:20 ◼   ► in the seventies but it's whatever language for many things but I want to [TS]

00:23:25 ◼   ► try a note and one thing this sounds really stupid when I installed note on [TS]

00:23:30 ◼   ► you know you install node that was easy and and then I did a little you know [TS]

00:23:36 ◼   ► console dialogue hello world I didn't even know the console dialogue existed a [TS]

00:23:41 ◼   ► note I just knew it from presently exists and I i did that and I ran from [TS]

00:23:46 ◼   ► the command line and just running the ring that program on the command line [TS]

00:23:52 ◼   ► was so far confessed that is faster than PHP if you do lol in PHP it lowers the [TS]

00:23:59 ◼   ► whole interpreter and it's not I wouldn't describe PHP s slow before I [TS]

00:24:03 ◼   ► tried this but once I saw that I immediately recognized oh my god this is [TS]

00:24:09 ◼   ► a different level of speed but this is insane how fast how could do that [TS]

00:24:13 ◼   ► hello world thing just launched in ran and again I know that's a stupid way to [TS]

00:24:18 ◼   ► measure things but it it was noticeable after using PHP for years believe me [TS]

00:24:22 ◼   ► that's noticeable let me interrupt you right there a related story that I think [TS]

00:24:25 ◼   ► you'll get a kick out of when I was living in Austin when I was in middle [TS]

00:24:29 ◼   ► school [TS]

00:24:30 ◼   ► my dad and I wanted to buy a new computer and I don't recall what we had [TS]

00:24:33 ◼   ► at the time but living in Austin we decided to go to the one and only Dell [TS]

00:24:37 ◼   ► store [TS]

00:24:38 ◼   ► and I believe at the time we were looking to get was a Pentium Pro nice [TS]

00:24:43 ◼   ► and I will never forget going in to the Dell Outlet Store and the way we [TS]

00:24:50 ◼   ► benchmarked all of the computers they had on display was watching them deal [TS]

00:24:55 ◼   ► solitaire hands because no ones that were really quick it dealing solitaire [TS]

00:25:01 ◼   ► at the time I thus far as I knew that was a CPU bound operation and so those [TS]

00:25:07 ◼   ► that dealt the Saltair hands really really fast you knew that was a computer [TS]

00:25:10 ◼   ► you wanted and sure enough the pentium pro dealt those things it was so fast it [TS]

00:25:15 ◼   ► was a do I could even see it was so fast it was a myth that's awesome so I know [TS]

00:25:21 ◼   ► what you mean yes so anyway so I decide you know what let me just see you know I [TS]

00:25:25 ◼   ► am NOT I really don't want to have to go and rewrite the entire feed parser the [TS]

00:25:30 ◼   ► entire feed handler the decoder Howard normalize their the high put my database [TS]

00:25:34 ◼   ► how it you know I parse although I parse the episode descriptions to remove [TS]

00:25:38 ◼   ► harmful HTML tags and try to summarize them and make them oh nice and [TS]

00:25:42 ◼   ► everything in there so much president that's already in PHP that has so many [TS]

00:25:46 ◼   ► like build up over time bug fixes and capabilities in dealing with crappy [TS]

00:25:50 ◼   ► feeds like I have so much that over time but i wanna have to rewrite that but I [TS]

00:25:55 ◼   ► suspect I can get a big savings out of having a thing in the front that fetches [TS]

00:25:59 ◼   ► all the feed that's written something faster than PHP for this purpose [TS]

00:26:03 ◼   ► official up that polls infection of the feeds and then only sense the PHP [TS]

00:26:07 ◼   ► processes the actual changed because most of the request of the said are not [TS]

00:26:12 ◼   ► resulting in new information so that I bet would cut things down by enough that [TS]

00:26:18 ◼   ► it would be worth it would be worth the hassle of running something else in [TS]

00:26:22 ◼   ► front of it I decide to write this thing up in you know I stumbled through the [TS]

00:26:26 ◼   ► route through out at the ready to most of the day in getting you know figure [TS]

00:26:30 ◼   ► out how it works getting the whole you know your quest thing the Euro parsing [TS]

00:26:34 ◼   ► nonsense like getting all the stuff and i know i guess i know there's a million [TS]

00:26:37 ◼   ► different library that make it simpler just wanted to do things in you know in [TS]

00:26:41 ◼   ► the most loving way possible so I so I knew it was going on and so using as [TS]

00:26:46 ◼   ► many new things using as many core modules as possible and try to minimize [TS]

00:26:50 ◼   ► my reliance on [TS]

00:26:51 ◼   ► on infrequently used their party code so I made a thing that would pull the feeds [TS]

00:26:56 ◼   ► every X seconds every X minutes and do basic 30 for tracking and then you know [TS]

00:27:02 ◼   ► calling callback function when it has new information for the seats and I [TS]

00:27:06 ◼   ► loaded up and it starts flying through all of them and it was incredible [TS]

00:27:13 ◼   ► until it just seemed to stop and I noticed all the sudden when two hundred [TS]

00:27:20 ◼   ► and CPUs again it stopped using approximately 1.7 gigs of ram do you [TS]

00:27:26 ◼   ► know what happened casey Cumz you need JavaScript guessing that something [TS]

00:27:31 ◼   ► wasn't cleaned up but no I don't know specifically what happen john didn't do [TS]

00:27:38 ◼   ► any node jazz program mainly due to open the browser and then in that case I have [TS]

00:27:43 ◼   ► to register download this notice no longer in the dock which amazing set of [TS]

00:27:50 ◼   ► Byzantine rules about what you can and can't reference from JavaScript there [TS]

00:27:54 ◼   ► was no I don't know turns out the VA engine which I believe is based on [TS]

00:27:59 ◼   ► JavaScript just has a a remnant of like roughly 1.6 1.7 gigs at it but the [TS]

00:28:07 ◼   ► garbage collector just kind of dies at that point [TS]

00:28:09 ◼   ► Java where you have to give an argument on the command line to tell it how much [TS]

00:28:12 ◼   ► space to use that I had to sell areas experienced recently work where I was [TS]

00:28:15 ◼   ► trying to run java command to tell me what version of Java add you know [TS]

00:28:18 ◼   ► whether its job ever [TS]

00:28:20 ◼   ► job minus version it says sorry on the memory configuration then could be [TS]

00:28:27 ◼   ► filing it could be a dot files could be an environment variable have upset but [TS]

00:28:31 ◼   ► whatever it is the situation and I were computer with YouTube job minus version [TS]

00:28:34 ◼   ► and that's amazing I know I did not know that that was a thing though Marco that [TS]

00:28:43 ◼   ► is news to me [TS]

00:28:44 ◼   ► yeah and and you know the reality is like you you're just not expected to use [TS]

00:28:48 ◼   ► more than one and a half gigs of ram in a note process but anyway that's the [TS]

00:28:52 ◼   ► thing and you can't change it obviously you can just run multiple processes and [TS]

00:28:56 ◼   ► split the load and everything's there's ways around it but it's still annoying [TS]

00:28:58 ◼   ► and again not only Php doesn't have its own set of obnoxious limitations and [TS]

00:29:03 ◼   ► badly documented options that anyway one thing I like is that everything in [TS]

00:29:07 ◼   ► notice is stream and call back based and so even like the the MDN 5 calculator is [TS]

00:29:14 ◼   ► streamable thing and so in the in the data call back for each year of requests [TS]

00:29:18 ◼   ► and let you know if I don't actually need the body of the of the feed if I [TS]

00:29:23 ◼   ► you need to know whether it has changed I can just piped through the indy five [TS]

00:29:26 ◼   ► hasher and just never keep any part of it and ran that could really cut this [TS]

00:29:31 ◼   ► down so I did that cut it down substantially you you weren't doing that [TS]

00:29:34 ◼   ► in PHP no in PHP I was loading the whole thing I mean I was doing like you know [TS]

00:29:38 ◼   ► basic eat a good if modified sense but if the server gave me a two hundred and [TS]

00:29:42 ◼   ► even at low pH [TS]

00:29:43 ◼   ► then I would do it every five over the whole body to make sure I do actually do [TS]

00:29:47 ◼   ► anything is actually knew if you know if it is new I need to process it so [TS]

00:29:52 ◼   ► there's no reason to me to feed all in and then immediately fetchit again I [TS]

00:29:57 ◼   ► figured I might as well just process anyway so I decided to let me see for [TS]

00:30:01 ◼   ► this new thing maybe I don't have to do that if if I removed that and if I say [TS]

00:30:05 ◼   ► that will anything that actually is new I'll just fetch a second time [TS]

00:30:08 ◼   ► like from PHP you know that's not the best scenario but let me see what that [TS]

00:30:13 ◼   ► duster and usage ran again and same things into that 1.6 gig limit pretty [TS]

00:30:18 ◼   ► quickly if I make a note process only do say a quarter of the feeds I can make [TS]

00:30:24 ◼   ► this entire thing run and do that entire polling thing we're across them every [TS]

00:30:30 ◼   ► depending on the drivers every two to thirty minutes roughly one process can [TS]

00:30:36 ◼   ► cross 60,000 feeds like that and tell me with me when each one has actually [TS]

00:30:40 ◼   ► changed [TS]

00:30:41 ◼   ► with about 20 percent CPU power on one core and about 600 megs of RAM why did [TS]

00:30:49 ◼   ► you have to split up into processes though couldn't you just have your [TS]

00:30:52 ◼   ► single process have a window of a quarter of the maximum window quarter [TS]

00:30:56 ◼   ► it's quite sure where the memories going to get that they're all just streaming [TS]

00:30:59 ◼   ► things through this just like one buffer is worth of stuff and see just how many [TS]

00:31:04 ◼   ► web request you have inflated once and you just keep that limit small then it [TS]

00:31:08 ◼   ► should work through you know your trading oh yeah I see I just have them [TS]

00:31:13 ◼   ► anyway it for process that much but now you got like a shopping problem where [TS]

00:31:18 ◼   ► your divvying up the workload like manuel between them as we just make one [TS]

00:31:22 ◼   ► process or one master process to do the job anyway so the problem there is so [TS]

00:31:27 ◼   ► when I first did this I initially went ok well how did you know let me look for [TS]

00:31:31 ◼   ► node based message queue so mean to me that can carry the Beanstalk you there [TS]

00:31:36 ◼   ► on the song has been stuck his has a number of limitations that make this [TS]

00:31:39 ◼   ► kind of thing annoying to do with it so let me just see like hey let's do here [TS]

00:31:44 ◼   ► and I looked up some some of the node message queues and I looked at the [TS]

00:31:47 ◼   ► source to one of them and it was like he was looking a hundred lines what it is [TS]

00:31:52 ◼   ► doing and then of course it is doing setTimeout [TS]

00:31:58 ◼   ► and so I tried ok let me let me write this entire thing you see is set as my [TS]

00:32:03 ◼   ► cuing method and then when the function finishes at execuse the next one and it [TS]

00:32:08 ◼   ► works great now the problem is I then have no wait I have no straightforward [TS]

00:32:14 ◼   ► way to to limit the number of simultaneous requests are kept in memory [TS]

00:32:19 ◼   ► of once where are you getting your work of work from your point when database [TS]

00:32:23 ◼   ► yeah someone just perform database and and chunks and you know just work on [TS]

00:32:29 ◼   ► your child can as things fall the end goal in new things you know you like it [TS]

00:32:34 ◼   ► you just need a window size of like this is my current set of things that I'm [TS]

00:32:37 ◼   ► working on as soon as you complete one a new one comes in and you could check the [TS]

00:32:41 ◼   ► polls from the database you're not sleeping a single road the time [TS]

00:32:44 ◼   ► that I'm actually sliding all the rows at once like it to be like every every [TS]

00:32:49 ◼   ► so often it just like you know so I D common URL from database and get to give [TS]

00:32:53 ◼   ► me this giant make you like never wanna do those queries like oh we say like if [TS]

00:32:59 ◼   ► anything it what would happen if I multiplied by three hundred and if the [TS]

00:33:03 ◼   ► answer is it blows up the discipline of saying never have everything in memory [TS]

00:33:08 ◼   ► oh he's always been advised by your buffer size like you know I don't care [TS]

00:33:12 ◼   ► how big the file is going to be working on you know X amount of it at a time I [TS]

00:33:15 ◼   ► don't get how many things jobs there are bigger than I can add as many at a time [TS]

00:33:18 ◼   ► and you know I don't care how many there are never going to let them always gonna [TS]

00:33:21 ◼   ► go windows in most cases I would agree with you however the fact is the role of [TS]

00:33:26 ◼   ► podcast is so damn small like entirely every podcast feed that I don't know [TS]

00:33:31 ◼   ► about in all of overcast 240,000 of them and they grow very slowly like two [TS]

00:33:37 ◼   ► months ago and far between 20,000 [TS]

00:33:39 ◼   ► the fact is I've heard I've heard the entire iTunes directory of some or all [TS]

00:33:44 ◼   ► along the order of four to five hundred thousand you know in the role of [TS]

00:33:48 ◼   ► database stuff these are tiny numbers really this is not a big deal I can do [TS]

00:33:52 ◼   ► like queries for stats and stuff with these ridiculous group buys ridiculous [TS]

00:33:56 ◼   ► joins that [TS]

00:33:58 ◼   ► on something with the size of tumblr you can even do what I can do that on these [TS]

00:34:03 ◼   ► tables because everything is so damn tiny if your unlimited by the crazy note [TS]

00:34:06 ◼   ► memory limit you would have to do anyone doing it all probably if you write a [TS]

00:34:11 ◼   ► post it in the chatroom extra money no its side and it seems to confirm that [TS]

00:34:16 ◼   ► there is a limit and it's less its 11 gigabyte in 32 bit machines 1.7 and 64 [TS]

00:34:22 ◼   ► bit and it's recommended that you split your single process several workers if [TS]

00:34:25 ◼   ► you're heading memory limits which i think is pretty lame [TS]

00:34:28 ◼   ► go you want to deal with that crap actually i i I am interested in go you [TS]

00:34:34 ◼   ► know theoretically however as stupid as it is the fact that it already know all [TS]

00:34:39 ◼   ► the JavaScript syntax even if I don't know a lot of languages like [TS]

00:34:42 ◼   ► nitty-gritty details of the syntax a lot of the basic functions made a lot more [TS]

00:34:46 ◼   ► blood easier for me to jump into making something productive year this Marco are [TS]

00:34:51 ◼   ► you familiar with NSURL session I thought about that too because you can [TS]

00:34:55 ◼   ► write and swift as a as a command line script I thought about that too but we [TS]

00:34:59 ◼   ► were never on it I have to get like a Mac Mini Colo kind of thing and that's [TS]

01:11:04 ◼   ► the analog show page of the ATP show page and copying the link that's on that [TS]

01:11:11 ◼   ► page but it was a really good example of how can I do this using workflow [TS]

01:11:17 ◼   ► and what I ended up doing was writing two very different workflows to do [TS]

01:11:22 ◼   ► exactly that so I can jump into workflow and I have a download the latest ATP [TS]

01:11:27 ◼   ► workflow and I can run it and what it does is it goes to the RSS feed gets the [TS]

01:11:32 ◼   ► most recent item figures out what episode number it is and then because [TS]

01:11:37 ◼   ► Marcos a gentleman and he uses extremely consistent file names for every single [TS]

01:11:44 ◼   ► episode all I need to do is figure out what number it is and I build a URL out [TS]

01:11:49 ◼   ► of that and then I can open it in the Synology DSM download Prometheus file [TS]

01:11:55 ◼   ► does matter one of the snow D apps and it will download it for me stupid yes [TS]

01:12:01 ◼   ► pretty simple yes freaking cool that you can do that with an iOS device yes and [TS]

01:12:08 ◼   ► so that's a great example so would you say you've been using workflow for a few [TS]

01:12:12 ◼   ► days now and I really like it I would say that I like the idea that you can [TS]

01:12:16 ◼   ► make your own Extensions yes you make a little icon appear in one of the little [TS]

01:12:20 ◼   ► she type things because that's what I was trying to think of things I do that [TS]

01:12:23 ◼   ► are non repetitive it's usually because like I'm in one application and wanna do [TS]

01:12:26 ◼   ► something but some piece of information is in some other applications I gotta go [TS]

01:12:29 ◼   ► back and forth are you know like and it's like well and I was a lot of [TS]

01:12:34 ◼   ► applications now I can bring up a little sheet with little set of icons and if I [TS]

01:12:38 ◼   ► could put an icon there there but instead of you know and Instapaper [TS]

01:12:41 ◼   ► everywhere now I could also run this workflow on this thing that have [TS]

01:12:46 ◼   ► selected type of thing so I'm looking for something like that like hear your [TS]

01:12:49 ◼   ► case where you're down on you think that's the thing you can do is book club [TS]

01:12:52 ◼   ► but I would do that also resided would accept that you just want to do you just [TS]

01:12:58 ◼   ► want to try trial it's a good thing to play around a bit like why does the iOS [TS]

01:13:02 ◼   ► device involved a process that's a fair point so let me give you a more concrete [TS]

01:13:06 ◼   ► example that I think you might be interested in is I made one to generate [TS]

01:13:11 ◼   ► affiliate links for Amazon so if I'm on Amazon and I want to post about [TS]

01:13:16 ◼   ► something or maybe I just want to send a link to somebody and hope I get a small [TS]

01:13:20 ◼   ► kickback [TS]

01:13:20 ◼   ► I have one of the extension style workflows battle that will look at the [TS]

01:13:26 ◼   ► current URL in Safari because I'm going to run it from Safari and it will [TS]

01:13:32 ◼   ► generate an Amazon affiliate link based on that URL and so it's like two taps in [TS]

01:13:38 ◼   ► order to generate an affiliate link now what I'm not mentioning is I had a [TS]

01:13:42 ◼   ► javascript bookmarklet the did the same thing but at least the workflow on [TS]

01:13:46 ◼   ► automatically copies it to my clipboard rather than me having to do the whole [TS]

01:13:50 ◼   ► cover and / or the tap and hold the Select All and copy dance and that's [TS]

01:13:56 ◼   ► really nice one thing though that I should make clear about what you were [TS]

01:13:59 ◼   ► talking about john is that when when you have an extension basically there is [TS]

01:14:06 ◼   ► only one icon that is run a workflow and then you tap that icon in the extension [TS]

01:14:11 ◼   ► sheet or whatever it is and then work for pops up and says okay all of the [TS]

01:14:16 ◼   ► workflows that you have these are the workflows that you've said that you [TS]

01:14:20 ◼   ► specified as extension workflows so the ATP workflow for example the analog or [TS]

01:14:26 ◼   ► not extension were closed so I don't see those options however the Amazon one is [TS]

01:14:31 ◼   ► and so I do you see that as an option that makes sense but I had it in my head [TS]

01:14:35 ◼   ► that you actually put your own icons they're getting away with that I guess [TS]

01:14:38 ◼   ► the answer is there not right now you can do that with home screen icons and I [TS]

01:14:45 ◼   ► will say that I thought it was really need I'm probably in a bunch of the [TS]

01:14:48 ◼   ► technical details but it was something along the lines of when you go to create [TS]

01:14:52 ◼   ► that home screen icon what it does is it gives you a URL with a whole bunch of [TS]

01:14:57 ◼   ► HTML in a in a data block you know like you can do in CSS to like put an image [TS]

01:15:02 ◼   ► actually within CSS it was like a base 64 encoded binary data or something like [TS]

01:15:08 ◼   ► that which I thought was kinda need but anyway I I don't really have a [TS]

01:15:13 ◼   ► particular angle here to be honest with you other than to say it's really really [TS]

01:15:17 ◼   ► cool that you can do this on iOS and I'm actually really enjoyed the technical [TS]

01:15:22 ◼   ► challenge of doing something that would probably take me five lines of code in [TS]

01:15:27 ◼   ► any given programming language doesn't matter which one you're talking about [TS]

01:15:29 ◼   ► but doing it with the limited tools that workload gives you and to be fair I mean [TS]

01:15:36 ◼   ► the tools and workflow gives you is more impressive for sure but they're still [TS]

01:15:43 ◼   ► very limited I think the most base of you have a for each block and an if [TS]

01:15:47 ◼   ► block and that's about as complex as it gets in terms of control structures but [TS]

01:15:52 ◼   ► just being challenging myself to figure out ways to do this with these primitive [TS]

01:15:58 ◼   ► tools I i've actually really enjoyed it almost like a game but I don't know if [TS]

01:16:04 ◼   ► it's it's probably one of those things where I now have a hammer so everything [TS]

01:16:09 ◼   ► looks like a nail but it's been fun and I definitely encourage everyone to try [TS]

01:16:12 ◼   ► it out it's a really cool out things like two or three sponsors this week [TS]

01:16:17 ◼   ► that plays automatic and Warby Parker and we'll see you next week now this [TS]

01:18:25 ◼   ► there's an iOS app called hopscotch that had on my kids iPad for a long time to [TS]

01:18:31 ◼   ► be like a teach kids programming type of thing and they have been into my files [TS]

01:18:37 ◼   ► let it sit there and I launched a reason they try to show interest in you know [TS]

01:18:42 ◼   ► whatever and I was trying to show them so they let me lunch this you know my [TS]

01:18:45 ◼   ► first little programming things got a little you can drag out a little block [TS]

01:18:49 ◼   ► and you can drag out a little action thing to make variables in the variables [TS]

01:18:52 ◼   ► become the draggable things and you know like it's really nice it starts off like [TS]

01:18:56 ◼   ► it was like a little monster and then you know to play but the monster should [TS]

01:19:15 ◼   ► sitting that I had this for five minutes I cannot for the life of me figure out [TS]

01:19:19 ◼   ► how to do this I'm pretty sure hopscotch is not turning complete because it [TS]

01:19:22 ◼   ► doesn't it has a loop [TS]

01:19:25 ◼   ► but it doesn't have a conditional you need if in while I don't think it's even [TS]

01:19:53 ◼   ► they would only they would work to their positions like I had started chasing but [TS]

01:19:57 ◼   ► I couldn't make it move smoothly but I need to like you know draw a line [TS]

01:20:00 ◼   ► between where they are now in the destination and move along that line in [TS]

01:20:03 ◼   ► increments they move smoothly the best I could do is make them chase each other [TS]

01:20:07 ◼   ► by sort of like teleporting around the board you know like their warping and I [TS]

01:20:12 ◼   ► know I said you know what I I can't recommend this during my children like [TS]

01:20:16 ◼   ► you know what screw this program I'm sorry to have to ask people if if [TS]

01:20:19 ◼   ► conditions are in there and I couldn't figure it out maybe it's like a mental [TS]

01:20:23 ◼   ► block where actual program should never use this program but that was super [TS]

01:20:27 ◼   ► disappointed now never have never tried that [TS]

01:22:51 ◼   ► future of delayed yeah like I i mean you take it back right so so here's the [TS]

01:22:56 ◼   ► thing with this I see these tweets right now I'm faced with this decision do I [TS]

01:23:01 ◼   ► send a reply to the tweet that says just keep listening to this show because I'm [TS]

01:23:06 ◼   ► a Twitter completionist I haven't yet seen this three tweets are now they're [TS]

01:23:10 ◼   ► going to say oh I guess you just said that on the show sorry so then I would [TS]

01:23:13 ◼   ► be replying to their tweet before they before they get there here's where I [TS]

01:23:18 ◼   ► think I came down at the thing about it for a while I think it's ok I'm going to [TS]

01:23:24 ◼   ► say that it's OK for me to send that to me even though seven tweets up the can [TS]

01:23:28 ◼   ► be saying that because twitter is much more real-time then recorded podcast [TS]

01:23:32 ◼   ► like we're talking you know I'm only like five minutes and comedian actually [TS]

01:23:36 ◼   ► literally in real time [TS]

01:23:37 ◼   ► just maybe as I'm typing the tweet their you know their listing in real time as [TS]

01:23:44 ◼   ► they're not their paws the program or deposit as soon as they heard they sent [TS]

01:23:48 ◼   ► the tweet right I think that is a real-time medium that there is a [TS]

01:23:52 ◼   ► reasonable expectation for me to be able to apply to them just because I'm not [TS]

01:23:56 ◼   ► completely caught up in this five tweets about my time I think it's ok to reply [TS]

01:23:59 ◼   ► to that one [TS]

01:24:00 ◼   ► whereas if you are listening to a thing that was recorded two days ago the [TS]

01:24:04 ◼   ► hourlong that time get too big and you should wait to the program to be [TS]

01:24:08 ◼   ► complete Muslim I don't think I just wait and scroll up and see if they feel [TS]

01:24:14 ◼   ► an appropriate amount of shame in 30 seconds later on the podcast we describe [TS]

01:24:18 ◼   ► this but I think it's two different things there from super far behind I'm [TS]

01:24:21 ◼   ► catching up from a day then I should probably hold off until the problem with [TS]

01:24:25 ◼   ► that is why doesn't have a good way to sort of all remember you supposed to [TS]

01:24:29 ◼   ► reply to this to be true [TS]

01:24:30 ◼   ► five hours ago later like it doesn't have a good set of drafts been where I [TS]

01:24:34 ◼   ► can say whatever anyway the moral of story is the only thing I can say is if [TS]

01:24:41 ◼   ► you're listening to recorded but not you know not live in actual pre-recorded [TS]

01:24:44 ◼   ► podcast wait until you're done listening to the podcast just 10 snarky tweets [TS]

01:24:48 ◼   ► about the people you don't know what they might have talked about later in [TS]

01:24:52 ◼   ► the show I'm so guilty of doing this and and and i agree with you nothing he said [TS]

01:24:58 ◼   ► is wrong but I do this all the time I poor feet and Jason especially if you [TS]

01:25:02 ◼   ► like they get it the worst and luckily for them I am really behind on I'll talk [TS]

01:25:07 ◼   ► so well maybe that's unlikely actually because I forgotten when they tweet [TS]

01:25:12 ◼   ► about something relevant to that week's episode but I do this all the time and I [TS]

01:25:16 ◼   ► need to not do it I think it's okay for the same to an old episode like if [TS]

01:25:20 ◼   ► you're three episodes behind and you you complete an episode as long as you say [TS]

01:25:26 ◼   ► in the tweet I'm not caught up yet but I just listen to episode whenever wherever [TS]

01:25:30 ◼   ► and so on and so forth that that shows them that you listen to whole episode [TS]

01:25:34 ◼   ► you're not replying in real time [TS]

01:25:36 ◼   ► admitting you're not caught up to the possibility to talk about later but you [TS]

01:25:39 ◼   ► really feel like you really really need to get them like that's probably the [TS]

01:25:43 ◼   ► only way you can do that but that's that's different than in the middle of [TS]

01:25:47 ◼   ► the show especially if the correction comes like a couple of seconds later and [TS]

01:25:50 ◼   ► later someone sent me a link to something it in the eurozone's hopscotch [TS]

01:25:55 ◼   ► is now turning completes like it wasn't just a programming thing I mean I could [TS]

01:26:03 ◼   ► have been like tearing completing the same way the C++ templates attorney [TS]

01:26:05 ◼   ► completely not intentionally so send emails during complete we've added [TS]

01:26:12 ◼   ► conditional statements good job guys I mean presumably hopscotch is written by [TS]

01:26:15 ◼   ► programmers I know that's kind of you know what I G but the question is can [TS]

01:26:22 ◼   ► you write hopscotch using hopscotch I can make democracy is each other I don't [TS]
