Sunil's Gochujang eggs

Sunil's Eggs.

These are my eggs. I like this recipe because it's delicious, doesn't take too much time to make, and goes well with other meals in my life.

All instructions are negotiable, adjust based on vibes.

Start by slicing up an onion. I like using a milder tasting onion, or a banana shallot. I like slices so I can taste it in the final product, but feel free to chop it finer if you'd like.

In a bowl, make the 'sauce'. A teaspoon each of gochugang paste, soy sauce, sesame oil, a couple of pinches of brown sugar, mirin or rice vinegar (I prefer mirin because it doesn't smell as strong, but the vinegar is more 'traditional'). Also add a teaspoon of garlic paste, and a teaspoon of ginger paste.

Serverless Graph DB

In an increasingly serverless tech industry, graph databases like Neo4J still require infrastructure provisioning. When you start a Neo4J instance, you run the risk of starting a server you may not use, thereby paying for uptime on a server that you think will scale up, but have no guarantee that it will.

AWS Glue and Athena - serverless ETLs and databases

AWS Glue has "crawlers" that can schematize JSON, text, and CSV files, and store that data in a serverless database, called AWS Athena. The output of a Glue crawler is typically a Parquet file that is stored in S3 (regular cloud storage for files), which Athena reads as a table in its database. AWS Glue also allows for Spark jobs that allow you to relationalize the output of a Crawler, meaning you can turn any unstructured data into structured data that can be queried with SQL in Athena. The fact that it uses Parquet also means it enforces strong data typing that typical CSVs and JSON files don't allow. It also compresses regula

FWIW: I (@rondy) am not the creator of the content shared here, which is an excerpt from Edmond Lau's book. I simply copied and pasted it from another location and saved it as a personal note, before it gained popularity on news.ycombinator.com. Unfortunately, I cannot recall the exact origin of the original source, nor was I able to find the author's name, so I am can't provide the appropriate credits.

Getting started with Node.js

"How do I get started with Node?" is a commonly heard question in #Node.js. This gist is an attempt to compile some of the answers to that question. It's a perpetual work-in-progress.

And if this list didn't quite answer your questions, I'm available for tutoring and code review! A donation is also welcome :)

Setting expectations

Before you get started learning about JavaScript and Node.js, there's one very important article you need to read: Teach Yourself Programming in Ten Years.

Understand that it's going to take time to learn Node.js, just like it would take time to learn any other specialized topic - and that you're not going to learn effectively just by reading things, or following tutorials or courses. _Get out there and build things!

This is an adjusted version of EC2 CloudWatch stats for Dashing which is not bound to EC2 metrics but a generic widget for cloudwatch graphs. Visualization is done by Rickshawgraph as in the original example.
