how to build clickhouse on osx high sierra

IMPORTANT, this worked with CH stable (76629e9) version on 2019/02/14

install requirements

from the original osx build doc page https://clickhouse.yandex/docs/en/development/build_osx.html

build clickhouse

Add /usr/local/include to the default path for gcc (for some reason gcc-7 was not using that folder on osx)

Linux Backup Solutions

I've been looking for the best Linux backup system, and also reading lots of HN comments.

Instead of putting pros and cons of every backup system I'll just list some deal-breakers which would disqualify them.

Also I would like that you, the HN community, would add more deal breakers for these or other backup systems if you know some more and at the same time, if you have data to disprove some of the deal-breakers listed here (benchmarks, info about something being true for older releases but is fixed on newer releases), please share it so that I can edit this list accordingly.

Bacula (from the Why section on Burp)

  • Too complex to configure
  • Stores catalog separate from backups, need to backup catalog

Exploiting Lua 5.1 on 32-bit Windows

The following Lua program generates a Lua bytecode program called ignore-unsigned-sga.fnt, which in turn loads a DLL from within an extremely locked down Lua 5.1 sandbox in a program called RelicCOH2.exe. The remainder of this document attempts to explain how this program works by a whirlwind tour of relevent bits of the Lua 5.1 virtual machine.

if string.dump(function()end):sub(1, 12) ~= "\27Lua\81\0\1\4\4\4\8\0" then
  error("This generator requires a 32-bit version of Lua 5.1")
end

Checkout github pull requests locally

Locate the section for your github remote in the .git/config file. It looks like this:

[remote "origin"]
	fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
	url = git@github.com:joyent/node.git

Now add the line fetch = +refs/pull/*/head:refs/remotes/origin/pr/* to this section. Obviously, change the github url to match your project's URL. It ends up looking like this:

Twitter autoresponder bot

Twitter autoresponder bot

By Daniel15 (dan.cx) This is a very simple Twitter autoresponder bot. It requires PECL OAuth extension to be installed (run "pecl install oauth", or if on Windows, grab php-oauth.dll. If using cPanel you can install it via WHM). The authentication is designed for command-line usage, it won't work too well via a web browser. You'll have to sign up for an application on Twitter's site to get the consumer key and secret.

Could be modified to be more advanced (match regular expressions to answer questions, etc.)

Questions? See my blog post - http://dan.cx/blog/2011/06/twitter-autoreply-bot-dbznappa

Modified 2013-06-13 - Twitter API 1.0 discontinued, modified to use Twitter API 1.1
