Commit and push via Github REST API, from ruby RestClient
# Committing changes to a repo via the Github API is not entirely trivial.

Business models based on the compiled list at http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4924647. I find the link very hard to browse, so I made a simple version in Markdown instead.

Oauth2 Explanation

OAUTH2

The Problem

I’m a web app that wants to allow other web apps access to my users’ information, but I want to ensure that the user says it’s ok.

The Solution

I can’t trust the other web apps, so I must interact with my users directly. I’ll let them know that the other app is trying to get their info, and ask whether they want to grant that permission. Oauth defines a way to initiate that permission verification from the other app’s site so that the user experience is smooth. If the user grants permission, I issue an AuthToken to the other app which it can use to make requests for that user's info.

Note on encryption

Oauth2 has nothing to do with encryption -- it relies upon SSL to keep things (like the client app’s shared_secret) secure.

Twitter Influencers

Twitter users visibility by means of regular Markov chains.

This is an attempt to define user visibility on a specific topic. Briefly, tweets are collected via the Twitter streaming API, stored in sqlite databases and then processed in order to create a regular Markov chain. The steady state distribution of the chain defines a metric on the set of Twitter users, which can be used to retrieve an ordered list of users.

Have a look at this paper and this other paper for further details about the mathematical methods.

Be careful, the procedure described here is experimental and it is not meant to be used in production environments.
