You mean not being able to access specific user data due to hitting the rate limits of the API? In that case, you can always cache the data (using the cache facilities of the data virtualization layer) and create a hybrid real time/cached workflow that pulls data in real time when possible and from cache for the APIs that have restrictions in place.
Take a look at data virtualization. It's an alternative to data warehousing without the burden of making mutiple copies of the data; instead, it retrieves the information fron source systems in real time.
The "single view of customer" use case, which is the one you mention in your post, is one of the oldest that this technology aimed to solve and it does solve it very well.
Thank you! Alas, I did not. I am fully behind the open source/free software movement(s), but right now I am at a point in my life where I can't manage and support an open source project as my availability is super spotty. Also, you don't want to see the css... it makes gotos look good.
It fills my needs perfectly because I created it specifically for myself and I control it fully in all aspects.
It's been such a tremendous success for me and so fun to create that I am thinking about replacing other online services with custom-made versions, such as google calendar, google tasks, etc. Something to look forward to in 2016.
I'm not on that level but I put manual both measurements and endomondo readouts in a csv file, in my dropbox account. I update it daily with aggregates from the last day and seems to be working ok so far.
Nice! Playing spacewar on the real hardware was one of the big highlights of my last visit to the Mountain View Computer History Museum (the other one being seeing the recreation of the Difference Engine actually working).
If I had to guess the reason, I would say that the new Windows devices are going to include many more small screens, which MS forecasts will make secondary (bigger) displays much more common than with traditional Windows PCs.
Looks interesting. A little bit of feedback:
- I didn't like that the table of contents disappeared on me when I clicked on a page.
- Related to this, it would be great for the progress widget to show the actual name of each page/chapter, if not all the time, at least when you hover with the mouse.
- In the table on contents: mark in some way the links that are going to take you away from the book and into a github view.
- The Next button feels too big in pc. Takes away the attention from the content itself.
Thank you for your hard work!
Not really. In Java it's a leaky abstraction - it's true that the JVM does a lot of micromanagement for you, but if you are careless you start getting exceptions (best case scenario) or start to get mysterious changes in your data (worst case scenario).
I agree with grandparent that understanding what a pointer is and that almost everything in a Java program is a pointer it's critical for a Java programmer.
Hey there, I just tried it and my experience was not very satisfactory. I imagine you are interested on the feedback so there it goes: video quality was low (super choppy, video was getting frozen at several points), voice quality was low (I could understand about 50% of what was said) and when a third person tried to join it got a message "This call is full right now" (which I don't know if it's a bug or by design - it's not clear if this is just a 1-to-1 service).
Anyways, the concept is very cool and I hope you get to make it work. A reliable service like this would remove a lot of my communication headaches.
