JavaScript is pretty amazing cause you can use one language for both client side and server side. No more learning a dozen languages to make your web app. One is all you need.

erlang and haskell are cool cause you can spray poo poo across all your rooms simultaneously and are notified when you miss a spot, without the global poo poo smearing taking a poo poo

too bad erlang's string handling can't be solved no matter how much time you put into it

who wants to parse strings in 2012? not i, says the erlang coder

Wikipedia posted:

Category theory is an area of study in mathematics that examines in an abstract way the properties of particular mathematical concepts, by formalising them as collections of objects and arrows (also called morphisms, although this term also has a specific, non category-theoretical sense), where these collections satisfy some basic conditions

While we're in algorithm talk, I'd like to ask if anyone has a few tips here.

I'm working on doing some advertisement targeting at the moment and I've been working on implementing Interval IDs to evaluate Boolean Expression Trees (PDF) to allow me to do some nifty efficient arbitrary matches, getting close (~3x) to compiled-code speed when interpreted on a few reasonable queries.

The problem I foresee is that it's still gonna be lovely expensive to run this stuff over hundreds of thousands of candidates. I was wondering if anyone working in different areas had similar problems of doing complex matching (hard to index) over medium-sized to large data-sets with ideally sublinear complexity, and if so, if you'd have any pointers :3:.

It seems to me pub/sub problems are somewhat similar, as well as match-making for dating sites or online games and whatnot. I'm sadly under low-latency constraints (under 20-30ms if possible), but any source of inspiration is welcome.

im pretty stupid but that seems very similar to BLAST lookups, or at least, the underlying algorithm they use in BLAST may be worth checking out. there's way less variety in the search strings (ACTG only), but 10s or 100s of millions of characters of genome to search through
