In an unmissable talk, journalist Carole Cadwalladr digs into one of the most perplexing events in recent times: the UK's super-close 2016 vote to leave the European Union. Tracking the result to a barrage of misleading Facebook ads targeted at vulnerable Brexit swing voters -- and linking the same players and tactics to the 2016 US presidential election -- Cadwalladr calls out the "gods of Silicon Valley" for being on the wrong side of history and asks: Are free and fair elections a thing of the past? (NOTE: This video has been edited as a result of judgment in the Court of Appeal in England and Wales in a libel action by Arron Banks, the funder of the Leave.EU Brexit campaign, against Carole Cadwalladr. A judge found that the talk was lawful at the time of delivery, however due to a subsequent change in circumstances part of the talk was found to be unlawful in England and Wales and has therefore been removed.)

jq is like sed
for JSON data - you can use it to slice and filter and map and transform structured data with the same ease that sed
, awk
, grep
and friends let you play with text.
jq is written in portable C, and it has zero runtime dependencies. You can download a single binary, scp it to a far away machine of the same type, and expect it to work.
jq can mangle the data format that you have into the one that you want with very little effort, and the program to do so is often shorter and simpler than you’d expect.

You can select the collection via:
mongodump -d some_database -c some_collection
[Optionally, zip the dump (zip some_database.zip some_database/* -r
) and scp
it elsewhere]
Then restore it:
mongorestore -d some_other_db -c some_or_other_collection dump/some_collection.bson
Existing data in some_or_other_collection
will be preserved. That way you can "append" a collection from one database to another.
Prior to version 2.4.3, you will also need to add back your indexes after you copy over your data. Starting with 2.4.3, this process is automatic, and you can disable it with --noIndexRestore
