Java vs Python on Hadoop

Normally, in term of programming languages, the scripting languages are surely slower than Java , it mainly because Java has JVM to optimize running programs, also the code will be pre-complied before execution. But, scripting languages like Python usually use interpreter to compile and execute line by line. Still, Hadoop, which is written in Java also provide the universal interface for other languages by using streaming interface. Even, Java can run faster than Python but Python can develop programs faster. Compared to other scripting languages, Python is one of the faster ones after Java.

Run internet required commands behind a proxy server in Linux

Most of the time I need to run a terminal behind a proxy server at my office to run a batch job, and I failed to run it because I don't know how to add proxy server in the terminal. But, now, I just found the command to add a proxy server in Linux. It's very simple just only one line :)

Open terminl and type this command

# Changing username, password, proxyname, and port to be yours.
export http_proxy="http://username:password@proxyname:port"
# After that you can test to run behind your proxy server
# , simply as following.
wget http://www.google.com
# If the connection is successful, then you will get the 
# file from this Google page.

To remove the proxy server from your network run the following command:

# Just delete a proxy sever variable using unset 
unset http_proxy
# Or set http_proxy to blank
export http_proxy=""

The example above is how bind a proxy server in HTTP protocol.
For the other protocols, e.g. FTP, ... so on. Try to find its variable for binding with a proxy server.
Another protocol that I know is FTP.
FTP => ftp_proxy
If you want to remove it, do the same as the example above.

Good luck ^^.

Adding Facebook Like Button to your Blogger posts

According to Blogger default don't provide essential social plugins like "Like-Button" in a post. We, however, can includes it into each of your post easily as the following steps:

1. You needs to create an App in Facebook at: https://developers.facebook.com.
2. So, you will get the App API key.
3. Go to https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like/ page to customize your Like-Button as your preferred style. After finish, click at get code, then copy that code (HTML5) to somewhere. You will get 2 portions of code, first and second.
4. Go to your Blogger template, select edit HTML manually then click at expand the widget because post customization is in the widget portion.
5. Go deep to the above widget code zone (almost at the end), or if you can't find you can put it on the top, but this code will be loaded first before loading Blogger data.
6. Paste your first half of Facebook code above widget code.
7. Next, you need to find the template for each post, then append the second half to that template. For me, I want to append Like-Button  followed the default share buttons. So, I will search for "shareButtons". It may have many shareButtons words in your template, but to know the one you want is that it has a code to describe its components e.g. Twitter, Gmail, Facebook, Google+ buttons.
8. Finally, append the second half of Facebook code here, but it need to change a "data-href" attribute to be "expr:href" as a Blogger data, and put its value equals to "data:post.url".
   For example: 
<div class="fb-like" data-send="true" data-show-faces="true" data-width="450" expr:href="data:post.url"> </div>
9. Done, save the your code and view your post!!!
