Great writers use metaphors to get their point across so let me give that a try real quick. Bugs are nasty little pests, mm’key? It’s hard to get rid of them but apart of just spraying poison everywhere, there are only a few options left. One of those options is using a natural predator to those bugs, a predator like birds. So birds can help you get rid of bugs. I work for a company called Dashbird that help developers debug their AWS Lambda applications. See what I did there? Pests\bugs <-> birds\Dashbirds? Clever, right? Now, who do I need to call for my Pulitzer Prize?Main Reasons For Using AWS Lambda FunctionsOne of the AWS Lambda perks is that as AWS claim “You can forget all about project’s infrastructure and focus solely on launching apps in the cloud while you’ll be able to (...)

Sometimes we are in a situation where we want to see all the network traffic happening in a app. This can be quite troublesome and we therefor need a easy way of doing it.In this article I will cover how to intercept HTTP/HTTPS traffic from a Android emulator by using a #mitm (Man In The Middle) Proxy.For getting started we need two thingsMitmproxy (For creating our proxy server)Android emulator (For running the application on)We start by installing #mitmproxy, they have nice installation guides on their website. When using Mac with HomeBrew you can do brew install mitmproxy.After installing Mitmproxy, we need to setup a android emulator.

It’s always interesting to try to debug a software problem you run into in daily life and see whether you can figure out the root cause. I recently ran into a problem with insurance coverage (who hasn’t?) that seemed to arise from a pretty classic software design issue. I think the example gives insight into how easily things can get complicated when software models the real world.If you studied computer science in school, one thing that might not have appeared obvious as you first learned about sorted arrays or binary search trees, hash tables or any other interesting data structure is the striking absence of semantics from these descriptions. These data structures exist in isolation, independent of any real world meaning. It is only when you try to apply them to a particular real (...)

Node is one of the most popular languages for microservices. With the rise of Kubernetes, increasingly, Node developers are being asked to deploy their services to a Kubernetes cluster. But what’s required to safely deploy and run Node services on Kubernetes? In this post, we focus on one specific, but vital, component: how do I understand what’s happening with my Node service on Kubernetes, and how do I debug it when things go wrong?At this point, you may be thinking, can’t I just use the Kubernetes dashboard? Unfortunately, while Kubernetes can automatically keep your service up in the event of node failure or a software crash, it doesn’t actually know whether your service is behaving correctly. In fact, a service may be returning 500’s or taking too long to respond and the Kubernetes (...)

Tracing is one of the pillars of Observebility, according to Twitter. #aws X-Ray helps you to get an overview of your distributed application, to find bottlenecks and to tune its critical path. Also, it provides you with the ability to trace your requests, so you can see which journey, any single request goes through when it enters your application. AWS X-Ray can potentially be a powerful tool for debugging your #serverless application, however it’s still immature and there is a lot to improve.

This article covers using the Node Inspector to debug both JavaScript and #typescript Node.js applications using Chrome DevTools, Visual Studio Code and WebStorm.As described in the Node.js debugging guide, Node.js 6.3 introduced the “inspect” and “inspect-brk” CLI arguments (node —inspect [file] or node —inspect-brk[file] ) that make node to listen via WebSockets for diagnostic commands as defined by the Chrome Debugging Protocol. This protocol has replaced the V8 Debugging Protocol (Now known as Legacy Protocol), which became obsolete on Node 7.7.Additionally, the Node CLI also provides a “require” argument meant to preload modules (node —require [file]), but most importantly, for debugging purposes, it allows 3rd party libraries to hook into the “require.extensions” module and make Node (...)

In my last blog post I was talking about Kubernetes and how ThoughtSpot uses it for its dev infrastructure needs. Today I’d like to follow up on that with a rather short but interesting #debugging story that happened recently. It re-iterates on the fact that containerization != virtualization and demonstrates how containerized processes can compete for resources even if all cgroup limits are set to reasonable values, and there’s plenty of computing power available on the host machine.So, we were using our internal Kubernetes cluster to run a bunch of CI/CD and dev-related workflows, and everything was going great except one thing: when launching Dockerized copies of our product, we saw a much much worse #performance than we expected. Each of our containers had generous CPU and memory limits (...)

Getting postgres unstuck when it seems to “hang” or be super slow on queriesSo, I was recently trying to insert 8 million rows into a table in my database (just another day in grad school) and noticed that the query was taking longer than usual. However, if I just selected the 8 million rows, it would execute pretty fast. The table I was inserting into had no triggers or indices, meaning something was blocking the insert.That combination of being able to do fast selects and not being able to do inserts gave me the impression that the table was “locked” by a transaction or something. This had happened to me before, when I had an iPython notebook open and hadn’t closed my connection, and terminated a query midway by crashing the web page.The last time, I knew what was causing the problem, so I (...)

Scientists plan to trick Zika-carrying mosquitoes into breeding themselves out of existence - The Washington Post
▻https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/to-your-health/wp/2017/07/19/scientists-plan-to-trick-zika-carrying-mosquitoes-into-breeding-them

This summer, a Silicon Valley tech company will have millions of machine-raised, bacteria-infected mosquitoes packed into windowless white vans, driven inland and released into the wild — or, at least, the streets of Fresno, Calif.

And, yes, Fresno County officials are encouraging this.

It’s all part of the “#Debug_Fresno” project, which aims to cut down on the number of Aedes aegypti mosquitoes, an unwelcome invasive species that arrived in California’s Central Valley in 2013. In addition to being potential carriers of the #Zika, dengue fever and chikungunya viruses, the Aedes aegypti also adapted rapidly to the area’s residential neighborhoods, to the chagrin of residents and officials alike.

“It’s a terrible nuisance, a terrible biting nuisance. It’s changed the way people can enjoy their back yard and it’s a threat for disease transmission,” said Steve Mulligan, district manager for the region’s Consolidated Mosquito Abatement District. “So we’re looking for new ways to eliminate it.”

To do so, district officials have partnered with tech companies to use an approach that has gained traction in recent years. Inside a lab, millions of the mosquitoes will be infected with Wolbachia bacteria, which changes the reproductive ability of males. Afterward, only those male mosquitoes — which don’t bite — will be released to mate with unsuspecting female Aedes aegypti.

Even if the females lay eggs, those eggs will never hatch. Eventually, officials hope to reduce the population of Aedes aegypti, generation by generation, until they are eliminated from the area.
[…]
This year’s mosquitoes are being bred and distributed by #Verily, a subsidiary of #Alphabet that was formerly known as #Google_Life_Sciences. Verily officials estimate that this year, they will release 1 million mosquitoes per week in Fresno County, more than 25 times last summer’s numbers. That is possible because they’ve developed ways to breed and separate male and female mosquitoes on a larger scale.

sidkshatriya/dontbug: Dontbug is a reverse #debugger for #php
▻https://github.com/sidkshatriya/dontbug

Dontbug is a #reverse_debugger (aka time travel debugger) for PHP. It allows you to record the execution of PHP scripts (in command line mode or in the browser) and replay the same execution back in a PHP IDE debugger. During replay you may debug normally (forward mode debugging) or in reverse, which allows you to step over/out backwards, step backwards, run backwards, run to cursor backwards, set breakpoints in the past and so forth. Debugging with the ability to run in reverse allows you to hunt down bugs much more easily. It also allows you to understand the runtime behavior of large PHP codebases more (...)
