Skunkworks Server Fund
by Phares Kariuki 01 Mar '10

01 Mar '10

Hi, This is a reminder on the above subject... So far we have received KES 25200 which represents 15.6% of the total fund... We would firstly like to thank those who have fulfilled their pledges, as below: Charles Njenga James Kagwe Murigi Muraya Odada Otieno Haggai Nyang Titus Njoroge Peter Muli Ashok Melville Makokha Dickson Mutsotso Simon Mbuthia Kennedy Mukanzi Paul Kamau Dennis Kioko Unfortunately, if we are unable to raise all the required funds, it would be best to reimburse those who have paid, as we still will not be able to purchase the server. Kindly assist us in making the dream to have our own infrastructure a reality, by expediting all payments where possible. Many thanks. -- With Regards, Phares Kariuki | T: +254 734 810 802 | E: pkariuki(a)gmail.com | Twitter: kaboro | Skype: kariukiphares |

Chile and Haiti: A Tale of Two Earthquakes
by aki 28 Feb '10

28 Feb '10

This is from Time : http://www.time.com/time/world/article/0,8599,1968576,00.html?xid=rss-topst… The 8.8-magnitude earthquake that hit Chile early on Feb. 27 was 500 times stronger than the 7.0 quake that killed an estimated 200,000 Haitians last month. And yet the number of casualties in Chile appears to be exponentially smaller, with the official death toll still in the hundreds. Far fewer people were rendered homeless than in Haiti, and much of the telephone service in Santiago and parts of central Chile had been restored within five hours. Comparisons between the two countries will no doubt be much discussed when the U.N. hosts a conference in New York City on March 31 to hash out how best to help Haiti rebuild. Donor governments already know why there was so much less destruction in Chile: it's because the government there forces builders to adhere to rigorous codes, while Haiti's incorrigible corruption and carelessness left such regulation all but non-existent. On the global corruption index put out by Transparency International, a Berlin-based nonprofit that lists countries from the least to most corrupt, Chile ranks 25th and Haiti 168th. And while Chilean President Michelle Bachelet hit the streets on Saturday reassuring citizens about her government's earthquake response, Haitian President Rene Preval has been seemingly AWOL for weeks.

Some scripting help needed
by Tony Likhanga 28 Feb '10

28 Feb '10

Hi folks, I have tonnes of CSV files whose sample content is as shown below: Choice|*123456780*|20|1|*YES*|Y|2010-02-26 10:42:51.239772| Choice|*123456781*|10|1|NO|Y|2010-02-26 12:42:51.243603| Choice|*123456782*|20|1|NA|Y|2010-02-26 14:42:51.247464| Choice|*123456783*|10|1|*YES*|Y|2010-02-26 14:42:51.251320| Choice|*123456780*|20|1|OK|Y|2010-02-26 15:42:51.255169| My aim is to extract the contents of the 2nd field alongside the count of similar choice result in 5th field. Desired output: UserId Occurences (*YES*) ====== =============== 123456780 465 123456781 25 I managed to achieve this on a linux box running mysql using the steps below (which can of course be wrapped into a script): 1. grep YES *raw_files* | awk 'BEGIN{FS=OFS="|"}{print $2}' > /tmp/in_file 2. Log in to mysql and perform the steps: 3. mysql> create table nums(num varchar(16)); 4. mysql> load data infile '/tmp/in_file' into table nums(num); 5. mysql> select num,count(*) thecnt from nums group by num; I'm still exploring how to achieve the same using some (simple?) script, possibly not involving the database bit. Any takers? NB: The only bit we know before-hand is desired choice result (YES/NO/NA). Thanks. Tony.
