ANNOUNCEMENT

I have moved this over to the Tech Interview Cheat Sheet Repo and has been expanded and even has code challenges you can run and practice against!

-module(timeit).
-compile(export_all).

%% @doc Dynamically add timing to MFA.  There are various types of
%% timing.
%%
%% all - time latency of all calls to MFA
%%
%% {sample, N, Max} - sample every N calls and stop sampling after Max

Testing Notes

At this time only the protocol buffers client supports client certificates. HTTP is not supported.

Setup

Setting up a Root CA

It is necessary to set up a Root Certificate authority to be able to create and sign certificates.

On the Viability of Erlang Releases and CouchDB

There has been some discussion on what versions of Erlang CouchDB should support, and what versions of Erlang are detrimental to use. Sadly there were some pretty substantial problems in the R15 line and even parts of R16 that are landmines for CouchDB. This post will describe the current state of things and make some potential recommendations on approach.

Studying for a Tech Interview Sucks, so Here's a Cheat Sheet to Help

This list is meant to be a both a quick guide and reference for further research into these topics. It's basically a summary of that comp sci course you never took or forgot about, so there's no way it can cover everything in depth. It also will be available as a gist on Github for everyone to edit and add to.

Data Structure Basics

Array

Definition:

• Stores data elements based on an sequential, most commonly 0 based, index.
• Based on tuples from set theory.
