Visual Representation of Tabular Information - How to Fix the Uncommunicative Table | FlowingData
by karlcow
& 1 other
explication pour créer des tableaux en formes circulaires. Bonne explication, mauvais examplesThe method presented here provides an alternative to mitigate the problems outlined above. It is a visual approach that uses Circos[http://mkweb.bcgsc.ca/circos] to represent rows and columns in a circular fashion, and ribbons to represent cell values. Does it solve every table's problems? No. It does provide, however, a way to capture the essence of the table and present it quantitatively and attractively.

Setting Equal Heights with jQuery | Filament Group, Inc.
by camel
& 3 others
(via)
We wrote a script to "equalize" the heights of boxes within the same container and create a tidy grid — with little overhead.
Creating the visual effect of equal-height columns or content boxes has been a challenge ever since we abandoned table-based layouts. When developing complex web applications or site designs we've found that it often makes the most sense from a usability and performance standpoint to use a simple JavaScript workaround: our equalHeights() function determines the heights of all sibling elements in a container, and then sets each element's minimum height to that of the tallest element. When JavaScript is disabled, the boxes or columns appear with varying heights, but the content remains legible and the page is still completely usable.

I'm planning to add an Editable and Resortable rows feature, as well as other cool GUI features.
One of my main goal for the plugin is ultimately to keep it lightweight, maybe under 20k when compressed. Because otherwise you should probably stick with Ext Grid or YUI data table.

How To Set Up A Load-Balanced MySQL Cluster With MySQL 5.1 | HowtoForge - Linux Howtos and Tutorials
by camel
This tutorial is based on Falko Timme's tutorial for MySQL Cluster 5.0. It shows how to configure a MySQL 5.1 cluster with five nodes: 1 x management, 2 x storage nodes and 2 x balancer nodes. This cluster is load-balanced by an Ultra Monkey package which provides heartbeat (for checking if the other node is still alive) and ldirectord (to split up the requests to the nodes of the MySQL cluster).
In this document I use Debian Etch 4.0 for all nodes. Therefore the setup might differ a bit for other distributions. The two data nodes were x64 to use all of the 8GB RAM. Servers were compiled from source so you should be able to make it running on any platform. The MySQL version I use in this setup is 5.1.24-rc. It's a release candidate, but I wanted to use 5.1 to take advantage of Memory-Disk Based tables.
Beginning with MySQL 5.1.6, it is possible to store the non-indexed columns of NDB tables on disk, rather than in RAM as with previous versions of MySQL Cluster.
