Painting is quite old and hard to fool. –Tad Spurgeon In Living Craft , Spurgeon calls out time as the first "material" used to make paintings. He speaks of "extra-logical," emotional time, time experienced by the mind of the painter, rather than purely physical time measured by clocks. His remarks frame an invitation to contemplate how one experiences time in the studio and what time means to painters (and, by extension, viewers)....

Managing Email from Emacs. Surely that's crazy-talk, but hey… let's give it a try. Install offlineimap Need to sync via imap. Use offlineimap. I'm on macOS, so homebrew is king for installing: brew install offlineimap Before can configure offlineimap, we'll need to handle a few things first. Get a cert fingerprint Use openssl for getting a certificate fingerprint. From offlineimap's FAQ: SSL_CERT_DIR="" openssl s_client -connect i....

I wanted to set up a prometheus machine for me to monitor random stuff, but I was always postponing that because I didn’t want to use SSH port-forwarding, firewalls, create a VPC and/or setup an OpenVPN server or anything like that.

Halt and Catch Fire is an AMC television series that ran for four seasons from 2014-2017, and covers the culture and pivotal aspects of the computing industry from 1983 (just after the release of the IBM PC) to 1994 (when the Internet and World Wide Web exploded). You can binge watch it on Netflix if you like today, and trust me - you won’t be disappointed! Halt and Catch Fire is the best drama I’ve ever seen - an emotional rollercoaster..

Part of the snapcraft CLI’s development roadmap this cycle includes the ability to build snaps on distros other than Ubuntu. Part of that work includes investigating each plugin to determine if it’s possible to get it working on other distros. As a result, I’ve been looking into the Catkin plugin recently, using Fedora 27 as my proving ground (since that’s the distro with which I’m most familiar after Ubuntu). The first thing you’ll notice ..

For nesten nøyaktig tre uker siden var jeg så heldig at jeg fikk lov å sette meg ned med Torbjørn Larsen, IT-direktøren i NAV og prate med ham på video om hvordan man fornyer en stor offentlig virksomhet. NAV har de siste årene blitt et av de mest ettertraktede fagmiljøene for IT-folk og jeg tror dette er takket være Torbjørn. Konteksten av intervjuet var i Dataforeningen sitt nye samtaleprogram Alvorlig Talt.

There are lots of ways to improve your site’s performance. Serving your static assets from a CDN, using GZip or Brotli compression, and concatenating your CSS/JS files should be on the top of your list. One thing that may not be on your radar is lazy loading your images.

2200 words, 11 minutes. Engineering, Vol. 62, December 18 1896. “In 1882 I was in Vienna, where I met an American whom I had known in the States. He said: ‘Hang your chemistry and electricity! If you want to make a pile of money, invent something that will enable these Europeans to cut each others’ throats with greater facility.’” - Hiram Maxim. Selling arms during an arms race is such an interesting topic it warrants its own post.

Throughout the month of May, teams across Cerner’s Engineering space have welcomed 197 software interns to our campuses in Kansas City and Malvern. Ranging from rising seniors in high school to rising seniors in college, these interns will be working alongside Cerner’s full time engineers to enhance and expand upon their current skillsets. While interning at Cerner, these associates will experience firsthand the look and feel of a day in th..

An absolutely crucial part of the experience of being an engineer at SoundCloud is learning and growing as a person. Pretty much everyone we hire mentions this aspect as one of their main motivations for joining the company. And while retaining highly talented and motivated people and helping them develop is naturally valuable for SoundCloud as a company, it’s also profoundly beneficial for the employees themselves.

Happy with Emacs Plus builds on Mac. You get some eye-candy bonuses like transparent titlebars.

I was looking to add multiple tags (the declaration after the struct field) to a struct in Go such that I could have it defined in GORM and in JSON. This was much harder to find via any search engine I tried than I would have guessed. The answer thankfully is simple once you know and was provided to me by Josh of https://boyter.org/2017/03/golang-solution-faster-equivalent-java-solution/ fame. The trick is to define multiple tags but ..

TIL about the openwith package. It enables Emacs to defer to external programs for certain files. You choose which ones. Neat. (use-package openwith :ensure t :config (csetq openwith-associations '(("\\.\\(mp4\\|mp3\\|webm\\|avi\\|flv\\|mov\\)$" "open" (file)))) (openwith-mode 1))

This is a summary of a number of consensus algorithms currently being used in the Blockchain space. The most common at the moment is Proof of Work however this is slowly being replaced by other approaches that are more performant and don’t use all the Earth’s energy.

Once in a while, I daydream about being thrown back in time. I’d have no Wikipedia, no books, or any access to information except what’s already in my head. If I were thrown into Victorian London, what could I do? What could I teach them? Well, the first thing I would do is tell them to wash their hands. With soap. Frequently. That would probably be the most significant contribution I could make.

Note If you follow my process, you are pretty much guaranteed to lose data. Please think carefully before running any commands from this page. A few days ago Elasticsearch died on one of my servers due to a lack of memory - One of my Python scripts interacting with a headless Chrome instance forgot a close a few tabs… a lesson for another day. So, a few pkills & a systemctl start elasticsearch later, my node was back up and running,..

Not a lot of people know this about me, but I've almost exited programming at three different times in my career...because I wanted to get into project management at a high level. Ever since my first project management class in grad school, it just made sense to me...but after about 15 years in software it doesn't anymore. Let me explain how to fix it.

I’ve been working on lots of new stuff in mgmt and I had a synchronization problem that needed solving… Long story short, I built it into a piece of re-usable functionality, exactly like you might find in the sync package. For details and examples, please continue reading… The Problem : I want to multicast a signal to an arbitrary number of goroutines. As you might already know, this can already be done with a chan struct{}. ..

There seems to be some confusion around sandboxing containers as of late, mostly because of the recent launch of gvisor . Before I get into the body of this post I would like to make one thing clear. I have no problem with gvisor itself. I think it is very technically “cool.” I do have a problem with the messaging around it and marketing. There is a large amount of ignorance towards the existing defaults to make containers secure. Which ....
