Show HN: Random Data Generator for arbitrary data types https://bit.ly/3nXHxG6

Show HN: Random Data Generator for arbitrary data types Datasino is a command line tool that can come handy when load testing a service or database. Give it a data schema (many compound types supported, including recursive types), an encoding (JSON, CSV or ClickHouse) and a target (a file or a Kafka partition) and a data rate and it will generate a reasonably optimized (native code) random data source. See the top of the README for some examples. If you have any ideas on how to extend this tool so that it's useful to more people, please let me know. https://bit.ly/3IudOfU January 26, 2022 at 12:38AM

Show HN: SPyQL – SQL with Python in the middle https://bit.ly/3fZeI7O

Show HN: SPyQL – SQL with Python in the middle SPyQL ( https://bit.ly/3fVh4ET ) is SQL with Python in the middle, an open-source project fully written in Python for making command-line data processing more intuitive, readable and powerful. Try mixing in the same pot: a SQL SELECT for providing the structure, Python expressions for defining transformations and conditions, the essence of awk as a data-processing language, and the JSON handling capabilities of jq. How does a SPyQL query looks like? $ spyql “ IMPORT pendulum AS p SELECT (p.now() - p.from_timestamp(purchase_ts)).in_days() AS days_ago, sum_agg(price * quantity) AS total FROM csv WHERE department.upper() == 'IT' and purchase_ts is not Null GROUP BY 1 ORDER BY 1 TO json” < my_purchases.csv In a single statement we are 1) reading a CSV (of purchases) with automatic header detection, dialect detection, type inference and casting, 2) filtering out records that do not belong to the IT department or do not have a purchase timestamp 3) summing the total purchases and grouping by how many days ago they happened, 4) sorting from the most to the least recent day and 5) writing the result in JSON format. All this without loading the full dataset into memory. The Readme is loaded with recipes and there is also a demo video: https://vimeo.com/danielcmoura/spyqldemo Any feedback is welcomed! Thank you. https://github.com/dcmoura/spyql January 25, 2022 at 06:29PM

Show HN: Remote Work and Free Time https://bit.ly/3nSRQeA

Show HN: Remote Work and Free Time Hey folks! I track time for 4 years already... Usually, remote work isn't demanding when for an engineer in a non-early stage startup. When you like your job and are excited about career growth, putting in extra hours can payout. But for some folks working enough hours and doing something on the side could be a better strategy. When you think of time as an investment, you may distribute it properly between a day job, side projects, and hobbies. How do you think of your time in the era of flexible work? Do you treat it as an investment, or do you go with a flow? P.S. If you entertain an idea of allocating and tracking time, you may try it with https://bit.ly/3rLvKvS https://bit.ly/3rLvKvS January 25, 2022 at 11:09AM

Show HN: I wrote a book on Site Reliability Engineering https://bit.ly/3FXqx9k

Show HN: I wrote a book on Site Reliability Engineering Hello! I just published a book on Site Reliability Engineering. https://amzn.to/3s6hNZF This book is a collection of 28 chapters on SRE concepts, such as observability, monitoring, Service Level Objectives (SLOs), alerting, resilience and debugging. I adapted each chapter from blog posts I've written over the last 4 years. Most of the chapters detailed concepts that I applied while working at $dayjob, so they are 100% proven in real business settings :) ------ Some info on the backstory. Last year I started writing a book on my software development methodology. I put in ~80 hours and am ~25% done. I began getting discouraged and I wanted the practice of actually shipping an entire book from start to finish. I took 28 blog posts and combined them to create this book. I put in ~20 hours editing the book myself. I'm really happy to have this experience and am looking forward to resuming my other book. I used leanpub to generate the pdf and epubs. Leanpub has its own markdown flavor called markua. I was originally drawn to leanpub because it has a pretty popular tech listing website. I didn't actually list on leanpub because they only pay using paypal, so I listed on amazon KDP instead. Thank you! January 24, 2022 at 10:51PM

Show HN: Let's Block It – Custom uBlock Origin Filters Made Easy https://bit.ly/3qURypt

Show HN: Let's Block It – Custom uBlock Origin Filters Made Easy uBlock Origin is more than an ad-blocker, it's a general purpose content filter that can be leveraged to hide low-quality content from pages you browse. While the main filter lists can remove mailing list popups and obvious nags, the definition of low-quality content is personal, so one size cannot fit all. I used to have an ad-hoc script to render and publish a personal uBlock Origin filter list, added to all my browsers. The goal of this project is to enable more people to build such a list custom list to filter out low-quality content and nags. Chose from a list of community-maintained templates, set your options, add your custom rules, and get your personal filter list. The project is still pretty young and needs more filter templates, and some frontend improvements (my previous frontend project was in 2005, this is not my forte). Any feedback is welcome! https://bit.ly/344Opu5 January 24, 2022 at 02:41PM
