Video game genres can be a tad awkward. While basic terms like First-person shooter and Platformer are serviceable for many games, we live in a world where increasingly wilder games are releasing faster than we can apply descriptive genres to them.

Every person on the planet should have their own website, on their own domain name, and blog about whatever they want. I’ve had my own website since I was 13. I will not tell you the domain name because it contained some cringe ass shit that’s still visible on archive.org. But that’s not the point, […]

I’ve just received news that I’ve been awarded the Microsoft Most Valuable Professional (MVP) Award in the Software Development category. It is an honor and a pleasure to be renewed for the eighth time. Being a Microsoft MVP means a lot to me; I remember how intimidated I felt when I met MVPs at various events and how totally out of reach the title seemed for someone like me. Besides my everyday work, I kept doing the things I loved:

Hi, Viele Firmen nutzen moderne Technologien. Kubernetes, RabbitMQ, AWS, Docker, ArgoCD… und so weiter. die Auswahl ist riesig. Der CNCF Landscape ist in den meisten Unternehmen angekommen. Doch was mich wundert: Die Software ist kompliziert. So kompliziert, dass sie nicht “mal eben” lokal gestartet werden kann. Das hätte ich nicht erwartet. In der Auflistung ist bewusst Docker dabei. Denn die meisten Unternehmen mit denen ich..

In this case study, we will build a note-taking app that lets the user add, edit and delete notes. It uses Compose for both the view and presentation layers! Note: This is a follow up to Part 1: Simplifying State Management with Compose and assumes the reader is already familiar with Jetpack Compose . The Template I find it useful to start with the model that represents the state of the screen we’re building. It will have a li....

The recent release of Doximity’s refreshed physician scheduling tool Amion involved a significant overhaul of the user interface (UI) layer using Jetpack Compose. As part of the development process, we decided to experiment with shifting from ViewModels to utilizing the Compose Runtime for managing screen state. This article explores the motivations behind this approach and demonstrates an overall improvement to the view layer and presentat....

The overall problem: Like many of us, I am guilty of copying files haphazardly, promising myself that I'll organize them later. This has built up to a significant problem over the years, particularly with old smartphone backups. I had a bad habit of dumping photo folder backups onto my server, with each dump containing even more dumps of old photos, resulting in multiple levels of duplication. Using the command-line tool called fdupes I've....

So it’s been a while since my last update and a lot has happened. I launched 2markdown ) over the course of a weekend. digital office has taken most of my time while we’ve crunched the last two months. I didn’t have the necessary time to work on newsletterify I’m afraid. I still believe the idea is great and I’m still convinced that it’s worth a shot. Let’s address some technical decisions that have become stumbling blocks for me. In..

RavenDB is a .NET application, written in C#. It also has a non trivial amount of unmanaged memory usage. We absolutely need that to get the proper level of performance that we require. With managing memory manually, there is also the possibility that we’ll mess it up. We run into one such case, when running our full test suite (over 10,000 tests) we would get random crashes due to heap corruption. Those issues are nasty , because ther....

I wonder if there are a group of people in companies that set the prices for their products that still like the concept of bartering? They seem to like the negotiations of trying to find the highest price an existing customer will stay with them.

ComputerCraft is a Minecraft mod that adds programmable computers to the game. These computers are programmed with Lua , a scripting language written in C. Neovim is a fork of the Vim text editor; it adds configuration with Lua and language server support, among other things, to the classic Vim editor. In this guide, I’ll be walking you through setting up a tolerable IDE-like environment for ComputerCraft in Neovim, similar to Vis..

James Dyer has a nice post sharing his frequent dired need to duplicate files. He offers a solution using a custom interactive command. His use-case resonated with me. Similarly, James' recommendation to bind his file-duplicating command to C-c d [^1] sent a signal to my brain triggering Bozhidar Batsov 's crux-duplicate-current-line-or-region. crux-duplicate-current-line-or-region is part of a "collection of Ridiculously useful e....
