So here we are, almost a week into living in California. How have things progressed, you ask? Well allow me to tell you! Second Thoughts Arriving in California was comforting, but also a little overwhelming, and my roommate’s words kept echoing around in my head, haunting me. Don’t live in a van. Don’t do it. -Zach B, Roommate for Life I started to second guess myself. Was this really what I wanted? Was I actually....

And here is where things start to get interesting. Since my internship last summer, when I realized the only thing I needed was a place to sleep, and company perks could provide the rest, I’ve done a little bit of research into how exactly this whole van situation would play out. In my search, the most encouraging thing I found was this: Google Security came by very early on, but once they determined that the guy in the mysteriously..

Graduation The weeks leading up to my inevitable departure from UMass Amherst are but a blur at this point, a torrent of papers, finals, and tough goodbyes. I remember having to check the “One Way” box when purchasing my flight, which at the time seemed like exile, or even a death sentence. I remember sitting in Marcus Hall for the last time, frantically typing away at my Machine Learning final, wondering when I’d next see any of the p..

It took me a few days to code up this blog, so I’m going to write a couple of posts back to back just to catch the site up to speed with my life. I don’t know exactly when I had the idea to live in a van, or where I first read about people who had done it. What I do remember, distinctly, is finding out how outrageously expensive it was to live in the Bay area.

Innovation is losing its luster. I see it in meetings and conversations every day. After years of being the darling of leadership gurus, the craft of creating original value is facing a growing skepticism that borders on antagonism.

On several occasions I’ve witnessed companies, who have decided to develop software using agile methodologies, view the QA role in teams as basically a waterfall tester who is involved with automated tests. By this I mean someone who performs all the manual testing of the product required within the team, and who is also exposed to test code (the latter depends on many factors, and is explained fully here).

When addressing the question of what it means for an algorithm to learn, one can imagine many different models, and there are quite a few. This invariably raises the question of which models are “the same” and which are “different,” along with a precise description of how we’re comparing models. We’ve seen one learning model so far, called Probably Approximately Correct (PAC), which espouses the following answer to the learning question:

Our build servers are really fast, even if your laptop is relatively slow our iOS build servers are powerful machines equipped with fast SSD’s and they generate a full clean build of a typical app (with screenshots etc.) in a couple of minutes! So the real source of delay when building an app is size, it both slows the build but most of all it slows your upload process (upload is typically much slower than download). Reducing the size..

It’s a bit of a sensationalistic title, but hear me out. And sorry for the boring-ish example in this article. This is designed to only excite people who really get it. :) AWS Lambda lets you run NodeJS code or any binary (or code of any language) as a fast starting and stopping EC2 instance. You can use it to, for example, quickly resize an image as a background worker. What I’ll quickly show you here though is that you could even poss....

In a recent post , a commenter suggested that using F# rather than C# would dramatically reduce the code size (measured in line numbers). My reply to that was: F# would also lead to a lot more complexity, reduced participation in the community, harder to find developers and increased costs all around. And the data to back up this statement: C# Developers F# Developers Nitpicker corner: Now, I realize that t....

How to install Percona MySQL 5.6 on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS from a script (i.e. without an interactive prompt for the mysql root password)

Ubuntu 14.04 (and various versions of Debian) come with MySQL 5.5. If you need MySQL 5.6 features (such as better join algorithms) you can install the Percona software, as described here . However, the installation process prompts you for the database’s root password. This isn’t convenient if you’re running the installation process from a script e.g. a Vagrant or Docker initialization script. Here’s the whole script to install Percona 5...
