A lazy adventure in Haskell | The Mosh Pit
http://tech.mindcandy.com/2015/08/a-lazy-adventure-in-haskell
A lazy adventure in Haskell. August 7, 2015. We’re seeing more and more Haskell pop up around Mind Candy. Time to get more familiar with it. Haskell has non-strict semantics, which in practice means a lot of Haskell is. It’s not the same though. For example, look at this piece of Scala code. It squares all the numbers in a list:. Val l = List(1,2,3,4) l.map(x = x*x) / - List(1, 4, 9, 16). In Haskell this would look something like this:. Let l = [1,2,3,4] map ( x - x*x) l. PutStrLn (show (map ( x - x*x) l).

devops | The Mosh Pit
http://tech.mindcandy.com/tag/devops
June 30, 2015. Over the past few years Mind Candy has gone through a DevOps transformation. We did this because we knew that we had to improve the delivery of our products and we knew that where we wanted to be involved having the following three things in place. 1 Shared goals and practices by aligning our different teams. 2 Unified tool sets, again we needed to align around a common set of tools. 3 Collaborative learning – knowledge sharing was and remains vitally important to us. For us this didn’t me...

Utilising AWS Lambda to migrate 25,000,000+ images S3 bucket | The Mosh Pit
http://tech.mindcandy.com/2015/06/utilising-aws-lambda-to-migrate-25000000-images-s3-bucket
Utilising AWS Lambda to migrate 25,000,000 images S3 bucket. June 17, 2015. When AWS announced AWS Lambda at last year’s re:Invent. We were really excited about it here at Mind Candy. The concept of a zero-administration compute platform, that is very scalable, cheap and so easy to use AND. At the same time integrates with so many AWS services through triggers is pretty exciting and potentially – very powerful. Since then, we started using AWS Lambda. In some of our products – PopJam. 8216;s3cmd du’.

Team Profiles | The Mosh Pit
http://tech.mindcandy.com/team-profiles
The Mosh Pit crew are dedicated members of the Mind Candy technical team who work day and night to bring Moshi Monsters. To the world. This blog details their exploits. Eventually this page will list each and every member of that crew, and shine a bright light upon them in which they will bask, knowing that the world knows them. Or we’ll just be kinda introverted and post pictures of cats instead. My First Puppet Manifest. A lazy adventure in Haskell. London Python Dojo Returns to Mind Candy.

Deployments using All the Things! | The Mosh Pit
http://tech.mindcandy.com/2015/03/deployments-using-all-the-things
Deployments using All the Things! March 24, 2015. As we’ve mentioned in previous posts, we use AWS services extensively at Mind Candy. One of the services that we’ve blogged about before is CloudFormation. CloudFormation (CF) lets us template multiple AWS resources for a given product into a single file which can be easily version controlled in our internal Git implementation. The core problem for us was that our process started with a base Amazon Image (AMI), after initial boot it would then call into P...

http://tech.mindcandy.com/tag/python
London Python Dojo Returns to Mind Candy. July 3, 2015. Last night saw the return of the London Python Dojo to the Mind Candy office. For those who are unfamiliar, the dojo is a monthly meetup for python enthusiasts that really covers the full range of “What’s Python? 8221; to “I’ve been using Python for 24 years”, where we meet and come up with ideas/scenarios/problems that can be solved with Python in a couple of hours (usually after some refreshments). And follow @ ldnpydojo. July 30, 2014. Whilst Dyn...
