Bootstrapping - a list of useful resources to get up and running quickly

Welcome!

UPDATE: This list is no longer maintained. I've moved it to its own repo so you can send suggestions as Pull Requests. https://github.com/dideler/bootstrapping/

For feedback or suggestions, please send a tweet (@dideler). Gist comments don't notify me. Pull requests aren't possible with gists (yet), so I don't recommend forking because then I can't easily get the change.

Starring this gist will give me an idea of how many people consider this list useful.

Latency numbers every programmer should know

Latency numbers every programmer should know

L1 cache reference ......................... 0.5 ns
Branch mispredict ............................ 5 ns
L2 cache reference ........................... 7 ns
Mutex lock/unlock ........................... 25 ns
Main memory reference ...................... 100 ns             
Compress 1K bytes with Zippy ............. 3,000 ns  =   3 µs
Send 2K bytes over 1 Gbps network ....... 20,000 ns  =  20 µs
SSD random read ........................ 150,000 ns  = 150 µs

Read 1 MB sequentially from memory ..... 250,000 ns = 250 µs

# Script to link in all your old SDKs every time you upgrade Xcode
# Create a directory called /SDKs (or modify source_path).
# Under it, put all the platform directories:

Python script for monitoring an IMAP folder
Each existing unread and subsequent new emails after the script is started are
passed as Mail objects to "process_email" function.Function header is provided
but processing implementation is left to the user. Error logs are currently sent
to a rotating log file (in the same directory as the script) and to STDOUT.
Instead of polling or checking the server for new emails every now and then,
IMAP IDLE check is utilized. Ensure that the IMAP server supports IDLE command
and allows at least 5 minutes of idling*** and uses the default ports for this
script to work. Tested to work with Gmail and default installations of MS
Exchange Server.

Setup a Local Only SMTP Email Server (Linux, Unix, Mac)

Setup a Local Only SMTP Email Server (Linux, Unix, Mac)

1 - Point localhost.com to your machine

Most of programs will not accept an email using just @localhost as domain. So, edit /etc/hosts file to make the domain localhost.com point to your machine, including this content to the file:

127.0.0.1 localhost.com

2 - Install Postfix

A simple example of how to integrate the Spark parallel computing framework and the scikit-learn machine learning toolkit. This script randomly generates test and train data sets, trains an ensemble of decision trees using boosting, and applies the ensemble to the test set. The ensemble training is done in parallel.
