I’ve been meaning to add a commenting system to this blog for a while, but I couldn’t think of a good way to do it. I implemented my own commenting system on my old Django personal site . While I enjoyed working on it at the time, it was a lot of work, especially to fight the spam. Now that my blog is hosted statically on Github’s servers, I have no way to host something dynamic like comments. Disqus seems to be the popular solution t....

One of the most challenging aspects of investing is lack of foreknowledge or future knowledge - we simply do not know what the performance of a stock or index fund will be. But what if we could print out a list of opening values of a stock and then take a time machine backward in time and invest with foreknowledge? Would we be able to make much more money than otherwise possible?

This morning I wrote a script to manage AWS session tokens and asked for a code review. Not optimistic that I'll ultimately use it and I'll probably go back to aws-vault, but at least it works now and I can test drive it. I did the 3 next exercism rust exercises. There are 70+ of them and I'm worried they are too much about basic programming problems and not enough about how to write idiomatic rust, so I think starting tomorrow I'm going ..

C++ smart pointers are pointers that wrap raw C++ pointers. There are several types of smart pointers in C++. This article will be about the weak pointer (std::weak_ptr) in the C++ standard that is a type of a smart pointer. It’s closely related to the shared pointer (std::shared_ptr) that is also a type of C++ smart pointers. Other types are unique_ptr and scoped_ptr . There was also an auto_ptr, but it was removed in C++17.

This morning I integrated the rust clap crate into some of my little CLI exercise utilities and learned a bit about dealing with a mix of Option and Result types, which is annoying. clap is really nice. I found a problem with the docs and filed a github issue and sent them a PR. It's actually ultimately an issue with the crates.io website code so I'm hoping one of those maintainers makes a fix that will handle the situation for all crates. ..

My first dive into Meteor.js has been great. I'm starting to hit that point though (as you do with a full stack framework) where the default behaviours don't suit requirements. In this case my client doesn't like the default behaviours and appearance of the accounts-ui package. accounts-base and accounts-ui are awesome packages that happen to make a heap of assumptions about how you're going to reason about your user's authentication and ....

Not to anybody. You cannot be interesting to anybody. Whatever medium you are using to express yourself – it won’t work with every human being. So instead of trying to please the world – go make sure the people your information is intended to reach – actually catch their attention. If you don’t know – just pick one and go with it. You will have an other opportunity tomorrow to write for the other crowd you have ignored today.

Things machine learning plus UX teams seemingly can't get right yet: Is this non-friend facebook message important or not? Do I care if this person liked some random thing on facebook? Do I need notifications or directions to an event I'm already at? Am I in a vehicle right now? What zoom level would be useful for this map?
