Blog: RethinkDB for system-statistics of freifunk-nodes
This story is about: How do we fetch, process and display nice statistics for
freifunk-nodes, running a free, open WiFi-Network.
Else we want to implement pushes for the owner of each freifunk-node, when
something goes wrong or offline.
Status Quo:
Currently we use some hacky bash scripts[1] which generates a text-file, curl it
to a php running server over https and dropping the latest values to a

The fun of implementing date support
After spending the better part of the month implementing date support
in RethinkDB, Mike Lucy sent the team the following e-mail. It would
have been funny, if it didn't cause thousands of programmers so much
pain. Read it, laugh, and weep!
-----
So, it turns out that we're only going to support dates between the
year 1400 and the year 10000 (inclusive), because that's what boost
supports.

Use a connection pool to rapidly insert a large number of records into a RethinkDB database.
var r = require('rethinkdb');
// How many connections in the pool?
// 2547 will fail with "(libuv) Failed to create kqueue (24)"
var CONNECTIONS = 2546;
// Insert this many rows
var COUNT = 10000;
// Database to use for the test
var DB = 'test'
// Table to use for the test

Checkout github pull requests locally

Locate the section for your github remote in the .git/config file. It looks like this:

[remote "origin"]
	fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
	url = git@github.com:joyent/node.git

Now add the line fetch = +refs/pull/*/head:refs/remotes/origin/pr/* to this section. Obviously, change the github url to match your project's URL. It ends up looking like this:
