In 2017, the Shed at Dulwich became TripAdvisor’s top-rated restaurant in London in just a matter of months.Interestingly, the restaurant never really existed until it hit the first spot.What happened?Courtesy of ViceThe Shed’s founder, Oobah Butler, managed to increase his fake restaurant’s rank from #18,000 to #1 in 6 months, all of that without serving a single dish.How did the Shed at Dulwich manage to trick TripAdvisor?Paid, fake reviews and an online presence.Because TripAdvisor ranks restaurants on the basis of community reviews, Oobah paid fake users to rate the Shed on the platform, while constantly declining table bookings from prospects.To top off the genius stunt, he took pictures of his right foot, disguised it as ham hock and served frozen dinners to his clients on the opening (...)

Let’s talk about de-duping a long list and then cutting up that list into batches.The problem encountered was a list of some 60,000 IDs and in that list there were 3 dupes.

This was going to be tedious and perhaps 15 lines of code, pretty standard stuff. To the google, and of course, ended up on stack overflow.
