Meet Bower: A Package Manager For The Web
As the web platform has matured, the tools for managing our projects, too, have matured. In this tutorial, I’ll introduce you to one of these tools that makes managing the dependencies of your project considerably easier: Bower. When I first looked into Bower, I wasn’t exactly sure how it fit in: it wasn’t just a JavaScript package manager, like Jam, and it wasn’t a module loader, like RequireJS. It calls itself a browser package manager, but what exactly does this mean? How’s that different from a JavaScript package manager? The main difference is that Bower doesn’t just handle JavaScript libraries: it will manage any packages, even if that means HTML, CSS, or images. Bower is just a package manager. The important thing to note here is that Bower is just a package manager, and nothing else. Enough chat: let’s see how this thing works! Installing Bower Of course, before we can actually use Bower, we’ll have to install it. Finding Packages Installing Packages Using Packages Building Packages
Copyright-Free Photo Archive: Public Domain Photos and Images
The photo archive at Gimp-Savvy.com has more than 27,000 free photos and images saved on our own dedicated server, consisting of over 2.5 Gbytes of data. The goal is to make this archive a resource for collage and photo-montage using digital image editing techniques such as those described in Chapter 7 of Grokking the GIMP. To improve the archive's usefulness, full indexing of the images is planned. However, this job would be taxing for a single person, and would probably produce only mediocre results. Consequently, the solution is to provide an interactive environment allowing the community to participate in the labelling of archived photos. In looking through the archive you will be able to browse pages of photo thumbnails, which are linked to the full-size images. The images and photos found in this archive come from three main sources: the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), and the U.S.

Cassandra, Hive, and Hadoop: How We Picked Our Analytics Stack | MarkedUp - Analytics and Insights for Windows 8
When we first made MarkedUp Analytics available on an invite-only basis to back in September we had no idea how quickly the service would be adopted. By the time we completely opened MarkedUp to the public in December, our business was going gangbusters. But we ran into a massive problem by the end of November: it was clear that RavenDB, our chosen database while we were prototyping our service, wasn’t going to be able to keep growing with us. So we had to find an alternative database and data analysis system, quickly! The Nature of Analytic Data The first place we started was by thinking about our data, now that we were moving out of the “validation” and into the “scaling” phase of our business. Analytics is a weird business when it comes to read / write characteristics and data access patterns. In most CRUD applications, mobile apps, and e-commerce software you tend to see read / write characteristics like this: In analytics though, the relationship is inverted: Database Criteria HBase Riak

Les tests : la pratique pour le Web et le PHP - Web, php, intern
Devant la réalité des contraintes d'une technologie donnée, le bon sens oblige à mettre en place une stratégie de test adaptée. Dans la genèse de création d'une application web, on fait appel à des types de tests spécifiques, absent de la théorie et à l'inverse des types de tests que l'on penserait incontournables (parce qu'on nous les enseigne en cour ?) sont pourtant écartés. Les tests unitaires Dans le billet précédent sur les tests en théorie, on a détaillé les différents types de tests dont les tests unitaires. Dans ce domaine PHP-Unit est une référence, il permet des jeux de tests pour une fonction et d'en vérifier les résultats. Comme indiqué précédemment, l'utilité des outils de tests unitaires dans un développement php me semble limité. Quelles fonctions sont testables unitairement dans une application web MVC ? Tests automatisés : non-regression Il semble plus judicieux d'exploiter php-unit pour écrire des tests automatisés. Enregistrement d'une session firefox en cours... <?
