AdBlock - The browser killer

noreply@blogger.com (malatesta) — Thu, 21 Jul 2016 16:28:00 +0000

TLDR; This is not an anti-adblock post. The AdBlock extension is a proved CPU eater and it is proved that the AdBlock extension slows down your browsing experiences. I and many other devs suggest you "Ublock Origin" extension. Ublock Origin is fast and it has less bugs.

We had a CPU usage issue for a while ago with AdBlock users on onedio.com reported by some of our users.

At first we thought that this CPU problem is about user's system resources and we didn't mind too much.
After a while we started to get too many complaints about same issue. We dig into this then we saw that this is a problem about AdBlock extension. Yes the most popular ad-blocker extension in Webstore.

Here is a profile result for onedio.com with a Chrome browser + Adblock extension

The CPU killer function named addElemHideSelectors is a core function of Adblock. We searched about this function and we saw that this issue has been already reported on AdblockPlus Trac (not Adblock, AdBlock Plus) [1] [2] has been already fixed this by a very few code changes. [3]

So I reported the same issue on https://help.getadblock.com/support/tickets (which is a closed ticket system, where no one sees your ticket or process of the fix.) [4]

Then for long time we got no response. Even an automated response. We dig again and reviewed the Adblock source code. We focused on the problematic function and it's calls. [5]

We saw that there is too many array operations while collecting "something" with string match "source" and "track", and we have too many "data-track" and data-tracksource" and "data-source" attributes on our website. So we replaced these attributes with abbreviations like data-trck or data-trcksrc. After this change immediately AdBlock problematic function's CPU usage decreased from %60 to %30. See it from my second CPU profiling result

But we still didn't solve the CPU issue. We just relaxed our users a little.
It is sad that we should be Adblock compatible.

We then applied the patch that AdblockPlus have made to Adblock. Ad here is the result. The only problem is that Adblock iterating 172K size array without grouping and immediately.

Iterating array with groups and using slice instead of splice solves this problem.

"The problem seems to be caused by the while loop inside addElemHideSelectors somehow." noted on AdBlock Plus trac page

As a result we are struggling with AdBlock issues because they have very slow development processes or they develop nothing. If you really want an adblocker extension try Ublock Origin. It is fast. If you want an adblock extension that has "adblock" in it's name try Adblock Plus. But don't use "AdBlock". Popular doesn't mean it's the best.

1. Adblock and AdblockPlus is different projects but they share common libraries.

2. The issue reported on AdblockPlus https://issues.adblockplus.org/ticket/4036#no1

3. Fix for the issue on AdblockPlus repo https://hg.adblockplus.org/adblockpluschrome/rev/9f451f809d40

4. AdBlock ticket system https://help.getadblock.com/support/tickets
5. The js file of AdbBlock that we analyzed https://gist.github.com/hasantayyar/6c5b6139316a9c5e24675bfa89980c4c

Update from my mentions to @getadblocker

@htayyar Sorry we didn't get to your ticket in time! Yes, this is being fixed. AdBlock 3.1 should be 2x faster than AdBlock 3.0.
— AdBlock (@getadblock) July 22, 2016

@getadblock just making this small fix makes twice faster - https://t.co/yf7l019juq - btw, is there a predicted date of release?
— Hasan Tayyar BEŞİK (@htayyar) July 22, 2016

Update #2
After Adblock released it's 3.1 version our pains are gone.

How we make decisions at Onedio?

noreply@blogger.com (malatesta) — Sat, 02 Jul 2016 21:34:00 +0000

At Onedio.com while we are making decisions we are using natural and primitive methods like our communication that I've mentioned here.

Short answer: We talk, like all we are team leaders. We decide all together. There is no long answer for this. And this is not magic. Try it. It is like deciding what to eat all together. Just make a free and natural office environment that everybody can talk.

If you want some diagram for our decision steps here is an unnecessary diagram.

How we overcome monday morning syndrome at Onedio?

noreply@blogger.com (malatesta) — Thu, 30 Jun 2016 20:30:00 +0000

Actually not all of us but some of our fellas found a great way. During the whole Game of Thrones season they schedule a Game of Thrones hour in our office and yes at day time. Now they will start for another TV series.

@cettox said "Every Sunday evening I can't wait for the Monday morning!"

This method is proven and working. Arrange some mutual fun in office at day time for every Monday mornings. It works!

Progressive Slack Usage at Onedio

noreply@blogger.com (malatesta) — Tue, 28 Jun 2016 20:40:00 +0000

TLDR; Slack is just a tool. But it's a great tool. And it is working.

There are too many thoughts about Slack. Some of them are positive [1], some of them are too way negative [2]

At Onedio.com we are a team of hundreds of people. And we are all communicating with Slack. Some of our colleagues use only Slack to do their jobs. We have many webhooks and custom channels, like #daily-reporting-of-somethin, #comment-moderation-channel or #server-status-reports-channel.

We are communicating only with slack. Some of our friends haven't even opened their email inbox.

We have some private channels and we are talking about almost anything in these private channels (side projects, fashion, football, politics, gags, gifs, food, party, gossip, news etc). We have also too many public channels that are open to all users. We like open communication in our company.

Our slack usage increases by time.

We are not just posting we are also reading messages. Our slack messages are not just noises. We use mentions and magic mentions (@here @group ) wisely.

Slack is super fast while transferring files.

Slack is just a tool. But it's a great tool. And it is working. Again but you will use this tool, and you may use it wrong. Maybe It's all about your communication problem. If your boss sucks at communication, sorry but Slack won't help your communication.

We are using slack as a natural way of communication. Our users are not always online. And sometimes they set their status don't disturb mode. In that case we are using different types of communication methods just like SMS or phone call (Btw slack also has an audio call feature). This is just a simple flow. If you don't like realtime notifications of everything then please use slack channel settings to turn on/off. If you like weekly/daily reports of messages then again use your slack preferences and make your settings with this way. Slack will help you to find your way on natural communication.

Slack works. Slack has a great dev team and all applications are just works without bugs (yes maybe with not very often crashes or UX fails)

Slack has many plugins. You can also write your own service or webhook for slack easily.

I am a fan of IRC and mail lists. But this is different. If your team is very young, dynamic and your project is fast growing, you will need a fast, clean and working method to communicate. Slack is a very advanced version of IRC.

Multi-threading in JavaScript with ParallelJS

noreply@blogger.com (malatesta) — Sun, 17 Jan 2016 14:50:00 +0000

Parallel.js is a simple library for parallel computing in Javascript (in node.js or in the modern web browsers). Paralleljs takes advantage of Web Workers for the web, and child processes for Node.

What is web workers

Web Workers are a mechanism by which a script operation can be made to run in a background thread separate from the main execution thread of a web application. The advantage of this is that laborious processing can be performed in a separate thread, allowing the main (usually the UI) thread to run without being blocked/slowed down.

- https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_Workers_API

Multi-Threading in JavaScript

JavaScript is executed in a single thread by an event loop. With the Worker interface, a solution to this single-thread limitation problem has been found. With web workers Messages Api is used to communicate.

Note that, multi-threaded programming is parallel, but parallel programming is not necessarily multi-threaded. Unless the multi-threading occurs on a single core, in which case it is only concurrent.

Parallel.js

ParallelJS provides a great easy to useAPI for web workers with many helpers. A sample usage :

var p = new Parallel([1, 2, 3, 4, 5]);console.log(p.data)

The instance p contains a set of helper methods, for example spawn, map, reduce.

Here is a simple example of map function usage. It returns a Promise with the result. This is not the right solution for multi-threading with parallel.js but only a simple example.

p.map(function (number) {
 return number * number;
}).then(function (data) {
 console.log(data);
});

MongoDB New CRUD API

noreply@blogger.com (malatesta) — Mon, 05 Oct 2015 06:27:00 +0000

The new mongodb shell includes new CRUD API! In addition to the old insert, update, and remove, the shell now supports insertMany, replaceOne, and a variety of other new methods.

> // the old insert API
> db.test.insert({_id: 1})
WriteResult({ "nInserted" : 1 })
> db.test.insert([{_id: 2}, {_id: 3}, {_id: 4}])
BulkWriteResult({
    "writeErrors" : [ ],
    "writeConcernErrors" : [ ],
    "nInserted" : 3,
    "nUpserted" : 0,
    "nMatched" : 0,
    "nModified" : 0,
    "nRemoved" : 0,
    "upserted" : [ ]
})

The new API better distinguishes single- and bulk-insert, and returns more useful results:

> // the new CRUD API
> db.test2.insertOne({_id: 1})
{
    "acknowledged" : true,
    "insertedId" : 1
}
> db.test2.insertMany([{_id: 2}, {_id: 3}, {_id: 4}])
{ 
    "acknowledged" : true,
    "insertedIds" : [ 2, 3, 4 ]
}

> // the old update API
> db.test.update(
... {_id: 1},
... {$set: {x: 1}},
... true              /* upsert */,
... false             /* multi */
)
WriteResult({
    "nMatched" : 0,
    "nUpserted" : 1,
    "nModified" : 0,
    "_id" : 1
})

> // the new update API
> db.test2.updateOne(
... {_id: 1},
... {$set: {x: 1}},
... {upsert: true}
)
{
    "acknowledged" : true,
    "matchedCount" : 0,
    "modifiedCount" : 0,
    "upsertedId" : 1
}

> // the old replace API
> db.test.update(
... {_id: 1},
... {set: {x: 1}}  // OOPS!!
)
WriteResult({
    "nMatched" : 1,
    "nUpserted" : 0,
    "nModified" : 1
})
> // document was replaced
> db.test.findOne()
{ "_id" : 1, "set" : { "x" : 1 } }

> // the old delete API
> db.test.remove({})  // remove EVERYTHING!!

> // the new delete API
> db.test2.deleteOne({})
{ "acknowledged" : true, "deletedCount" : 1 }
> db.test2.deleteMany({})
{ "acknowledged" : true, "deletedCount" : 3 }

Vogels - DynamoDB data mapper for node.js

noreply@blogger.com (malatesta) — Wed, 22 Jul 2015 11:37:00 +0000

Check out vogels on github https://github.com/ryanfitz/vogels/

Features

Simplified data modeling and mapping to DynamoDB types
Advanced chainable apis for query and scan operations
Data validation
Autogenerating UUIDs
Global Secondary Indexes
Local Secondary Indexes
Parallel Scans

You can configure vogels to automatically add createdAt and updatedAt timestamp attributes when saving and updating a model. updatedAt will only be set when updating a record and will not be set on initial creation of the model.

var Account = vogels.define('Account', {
  hashKey : 'email',

  // add the timestamp attributes (updatedAt, createdAt)
  timestamps : true,

  schema : {
    email : Joi.string().email(),
  }
});

If you want vogels to handle timestamps, but only want some of them, or want your timestamps to be called something else, you can override each attribute individually:

var Account = vogels.define('Account', {
  hashKey : 'email',

  // enable timestamps support
  timestamps : true,

  // I don't want createdAt
  createdAt: false,

  // I want updatedAt to actually be called updateTimestamp
  updatedAt: 'updateTimestamp'

  schema : {
    email : Joi.string().email(),
  }
});

You can override the table name the model will use.

var Event = vogels.define('Event', {
  hashkey : 'name',
  schema : {
    name : Joi.string(),
    total : Joi.number()
  },

  tableName: 'deviceEvents'
});

if you set the tableName to a function, vogels will use the result of the function as the active table to use. Useful for storing time series data.

var Event = vogels.define('Event', {
  hashkey : 'name',
  schema : {
    name : Joi.string(),
    total : Joi.number()
  },

  // store monthly event data
  tableName: function () {
    var d = new Date();
    return ['events', d.getFullYear(), d.getMonth() + 1].join('_');
  }
});

Image Placeholder Services

noreply@blogger.com (malatesta) — Sat, 13 Jun 2015 09:09:00 +0000

Here I listed some of my favorite image placeholder services :

https://placekitten.com/ - all of your placeholders will be kittens! (Or if you like bears http://placebear.com/)
http://placehold.it/ - boring placeholders but your draft will be more professional without kittens. You can change format, color, text and size
http://fakeimg.pl/ - alternative to placehold.it
http://loremflickr.com/ - Random real photos with given sizes. You can give tags or you can get only black and white photos.
http://p-hold.com/ - This service has too many features for image placeholding.
http://dummyimage.com/ - alternative to placehold.it . Thi service has also an interactive placeholder url generator form
https://placeimg.com/ - You can select categories.
http://lorempixel.com/ - This service is more popular among others (has no more features from p-hold.com but faster).

Knowledge-Based Trust: Estimating the Trustworthiness of Web Sources

ABSTRACT

The quality of web sources has been traditionally evaluated using exogenous signals such as the hyperlink structure of the graph. We propose a new approach that relies on endogenous signals, namely, the correctness of factual information provided by the source. A source that has few false facts is considered to be trustworthy. The facts are automatically extracted from each source by information extraction methods commonly used to construct knowledge bases. We propose a way to distinguish errors made in the extraction process from factual errors in the web source per se, by using joint inference in a novel multi-layer probabilistic model. We call the trustworthiness score we computed Knowledge-Based Trust (KBT). On synthetic data, we show that our method can reliably compute the true trustworthiness levels of the sources. We then apply it to a database of 2.8B facts extracted from the web, and thereby estimate the trustworthiness of 119M webpages. Manual evaluation of a subset of the results confirms the effectiveness of the method.
