I’ve started this post maybe twenty times now, since before Christmas, and each time I keep putting it off, thinking “I’ll just blog when I have this next bit done.” But each “next bit” is followed by something else, and then something else, into infinity.

Reactive Programming is a very interesting programming paradigm that I started pondering with last week, which ended up in an article on this blog.

Another rest-ish day with a small jaunt down the road in the Feelmax Kuuva 3 before picking up coffee and salad for tea. THE EXCITEMENT IS NON-STOP. NON. STOP. [5km to coffee]

not to be complicit not to accept everyone else is silent it must be alright not to keep one’s mouth shut to hold onto one’s job not to accept public language as cover and decoy not to put friends and family before the rest of the world not to say I am wrong when you know the government is wrong not to be just a bought behaviour pattern to accept the moment and fact of choice

Another brisk 10km but with a twist - this time I recorded the entire binaural soundscape using the PCM-M10 and the CS-10EM. Here’s a snippet from Narrow Street - obviously you need stereo headphones to get the full effect. Managed the 10km marker in 1:50:45 which isn’t bad but then forgot to stop the watch when I got to Charing Cross (because I’d lost one of the windshields for the CS-10EMs and was flustered - turned out to be attached to ..

Are you a big fan of JavaScript? Would you prefer to use JS both in the browser and on the server? I'll show you how to do all of this with Fine Uploader, AngularJS, and Node.js.

A rest day which involved going to the Co-op to pick up a windshield (very effective but doesn’t really fit the PCM-M10 if you have headphones plugged in) and then home via Point Hill. Which is Quite Steep in places. Windshield vs Muji fan Muji fan, full speed, pointed at the PCM-M10 mics from 4". 10s with windshield; 10s without; 10s without on low sensitivity.

How to make a CI Build for a custom DSC Resource with Appveyor & PowerShell Gallery

A while back I created a custom DSC resource which enabled you to manage packages installed with Chocolatey (awesome package manager for Windows, like apt-get). You can do some cool stuff with it, like build out a dev box in azure with one script, use for deployment or just to setup your machine after a rebuild. So it turns out people have been doing just that, it’s had over 1,200 downloads from the PowerShell Gallery ! No..

Over the past decade, User Experience Research and Design—often simply “UX”—has gained an increasingly prominent position in the world of tech. While the field has faced opposition within the industry, successful organizations are increasingly learning that investing in UX pay off.

Into the last stretch! Just as the weather seems to pivoting out of “COR BLIMEY MY KNACKERS HAVE VANISHED” cold into “DON’T NEED A COAT MUM” mild as well. Today was a rest day and if it hadn’t have been for those surprise Creme Eggs, it would have been a successful one. Still, a walk up a hill in “brisk” conditions can’t hurt.

Do you think a female going to grad school could survive your adventure? My daughter is 25 and is going to grad school next year. Normally I would drop a question like this into a Q&A post of some sort, but I’ve gotten a bunch of similar questions, and even met up with a few inquirers to discuss this exact topic. These things lead me to believe it’s an important enough topic to deserve its own post (not that the threshold for “deserving..

As a female Software Engineer, I know the benefits of having other females in the field to fellowship with as well as the benefits of early exposure to coding and the technology field. The Girls in Technology Movement Hour of Code event held December 9th, 2015 at Cerner’s Innovation Campus was a great opportunity for girls from nearby schools to gather and hear a little about the technology industry, the opportunities available for their fu..

As the topics of 'women in leadership' and 'gender equality in the tech industry' remain firmly in the limelight, I have spent some time reflecting on my own personal journey, particularly stepping into leadership roles. Here’s my story, with some tips to advance your career in technical leadership and things to consider for personal growth.

First run for 8 days and it was hard. Not because of the running but because Muji base layer + dare2b shell was FAR TOO HEAT EFFICIENT. I was burning up after half an hour. Then got some twangy calf pre-cramps at 8km and it was an easy decision to abort at just over 10km by Deptford ASDA for some recovery food. That included a banana - the eating of which made me feel proper ill.

Hope everyone had a great holiday. Last month has been a bit busy. So my “experiment” with this kind of correspondence was on a hiatus. On the flip side, I have a lot of really good things to share in the coming weeks. Books Snow Crash – Written

After doing Google Summer of Code last year, this is my first year of applying for internships. So I’m nervous-yet-excited, and am really hoping that resumes actually get looked at as I don’t have any “employers” to put down so far. Places I’ve applied to: Mozilla in Mountain View – open source, makers of Firefox and Rust! This is kind of my dream job. Adobe in San Jose – they’re really easy to get to from home, which is great s....

Almost exactly a year ago, I wrote a post about running Docker Containers on the Desktop . Well it is a new year, and I have ended up converting all my docker containers to runc configs, so it’s the perfect time for a new blog post. For those of you unfamiliar with the Open Container Initiative you should check out opencontainers.org . Why the switch? you ask… well let me explain. Our fellow Docker maintainer and pal Phil Estes....

I solved a problem today and figured that I’d document it for the rest of the world. Every time someone left me a voicemail on Verizon, I would get a cryptic text from Verizon at 900080006202 that looked like “//VZWVVM:SYNC:ev=NM;id=1;c=1;t=v;s=1XXXXXXXXXX;dt=18/01/2016 13:40-0900;l=13;dev_t=5” or “//VZWVVM:SYNC:ev=MBU;dev_t=5”. Here’s what happened. It turns out that Verizon has three kinds of […]

Yes Central St. Giles location. Ordered a Kirin Ichiban beer and a Spicy Tonkotsu with a seasoned boiled egg. Awesome medium-spice broth, tasty egg and firm noodles. Got additional noodles for £1.50. But… The space feels soulless. Think generic, chain, Pizza Express… Photos

At trivago we rely heavily on the ELK stack for our log processing. We stream our webserver access logs, error logs, performance benchmarks and all kind of diagnostic data into Kafka and process it from there into Elasticsearch using Logstash.

At an open space session on configuration automation at a DevOpsDays a few years ago, I asked the group how many of them were using an automation tools like Puppet or Chef. The majority of hands went up. I asked how many were running these tools unattended, on an automatic schedule. Quite a few of the hands went down.
