Inspired by this article. Neat tricks for speeding up integer computations.

Note: cin.sync_with_stdio(false); disables synchronous IO and gives you a performance boost. If used, you should only use cin for reading input (don't use both cin and scanf when sync is disabled, for example) or you will get unexpected results.

Multiply by a power of 2

x = x << 1; // x = x * 2

Nginx: stat() failed (13: permission denied)

from https://stackoverflow.com/questions/25774999/nginx-stat-failed-13-permission-denied

Nginx operates within the directory, so if you can't cd to that directory from the nginx user then it will fail (as does the stat command in your log). Make sure the www-user can cd all the way to the /username/test/static. You can confirm that the stat will fail or succeed by running

sudo -u www-data stat /username/test/static

System Design Cheatsheet

Picking the right architecture = Picking the right battles + Managing trade-offs

Basic Steps

1. Clarify and agree on the scope of the system

• User cases (description of sequences of events that, taken together, lead to a system doing something useful)
  • Who is going to use it?
  • How are they going to use it?
