How much overhead is there in persistent connections?
Ok so I’m musing over a little side project I want to start. Essentially its a multi-session web based FTP client. Multi-session in that you can log into several FTP servers at the same time and perform operations like moving a file from one FTP server to another.
Optimization of a hybrid pagination scheme
I’m working on a Web Application using node.js in which I’m building a partial copy of the database on the client-side to decrease the load on my server. Right now, I have a function like this (expressed as python-style pseudocode, but implemented in JavaScript):
How to dynamically add new posts once they are created
I am trying to design an application where users can make posts with Django on the backend. Right now I have to refresh the page with JavaScript every 20 or 30 seconds to check for new posts that might be available for that page. I was wondering if there are more effective ways to do this? Maybe with a JSON response? I am looking for a solution like Twitter, where they show how many new posts are available that are not on the page or even like on Facebook where they update the wall posts automatically.
Python web application frontend for equipment diagnostics and interaction
My goal is to have a Python application that runs a web server which hosts the user interface, and based on interactions from a user in their browser, long running tasks get kicked off and through some process, feed status information back to the web server and subsequently back to the browser.
Making a decentralized system utilizing JavaScript/HTML5?
I am interested in decentralized systems, and am currently considering building one myself. I am considering using JavaScript and HTML5, simply because it makes it very easy to use the system (they just have to go to a website).
Is masking really necessary when sending from Websocket client
The current Websocket RFC requires that websocket clients mask all data within frames when sending (but server is not required to). The reason the protocol was designed this way is to prevent frame data from being altered by malicious services between the client and server (proxies, etc). However, the masking key is still known to such services (it is sent on a per frame basis at the beginning of each frame)

Serve content from server to remote embed HTML
The title is very bad so let me explain what I need to know. I have a server with let’s say different images. What I want to achieve is be able to embed a frame, into any HTML site, and be the server the one that determines what image to show on that remote frame.

AJAX or web sockets for client-server communication?
I recently took a course on AngularJS, and quite frankly I loved the concepts of a website that fetches json to handle subsequent requests, however I still feel like Javascript is far too slow for what I want to do on a server.
