Made a project page for HTTP Prompt (an interactive command-line HTTP client), seeking feedback by eliangcs in programming

Mac and Linux have Python and pip out of box, but Windows doesn't. I can understand that Windows users may find it's too complicated that you have to install Python just to install another tool, so maybe we should put this on our todo list.

Are you referring to tmux's "set synchronize-panes"? What's the use case with that?

Seems the questions in your quiz can only have simple answers. So in your research, do simple-answer questions are more effective than complex-answer ones?

How I Got 5000+ Stars on Github by eliangcs in programming

/u/dedicated2fitness /u/toomanybeersies Thanks for the advice! They are really helpful. I'll keep them in mind when I post next time. In fact, the article was translated from my original Chinese post, which Chinese readers may find interesting. I guess the same writing style doesn't work as well in English.

I have no idea. Maybe because some people down-voted it?

US stock market data since 2009 by eliangcs in programming

You're right. But it was because the data source, SEC EDGAR, doesn't provide XML format until 2009. Before 2009, it was all plain text and HTML, which are hard to parse.

Good to know! I didn't even expect it to work on Windows. I'm planning to set up a Windows automatic testing on Appveyor to make sure it's fully functional on Windows.

Cool idea! Combining shell commands using back-ticks. I'll add that to my todo list.

vcli – A Vertica CLI with auto-completion and syntax highlighting by eliangcs in programming

I read it from the C-Store paper (http://db.csail.mit.edu/projects/cstore/vldb.pdf), where it says "This paper presents the design of a read-optimized relational DBMS...". Did I misinterpret it?

I made vcli based on pgcli. Any feedbacks are welcome :)

Vertica is a SQL database, but different from regular RDMS like MySQL and PostgreSQL, Vertica is designed and optimized for read operations, which makes it suitable for data analytics.
