There is an episode of Star Trek where a character is for plot reasons trapped in a shrinking parallel universe. As time passes, people she knows one by one just vanish and she is the only one who seems to notice. Eventually it gets to an absurd point. She asks if it really makes sense if a ship made for a thousand people would have a crew of a few people, and everyone just sort of like shrugs and looks at her like she’s crazy. That’s basic..

In this blog post, I will be sharing the latest progress I made on my hydroponics robot. I last left it with goal accuracy issues and the wheel tread falling off. I started off by gluing the wheel tread back onto the robot, and then proceeded to run it through the lane in laps. The … Continue reading "Hydroponics Robot Part 5 – Lane Navigation"

Introducing Simplekiq: A Lightweight Orchestration Framework for Ruby

Sidekiq is an amazing background job framework for Ruby with a long history of the best kind of minimalism - one of performance and succinctness. However, a downside of this is that long workflows built from dozens of background jobs queueing subsequent background jobs can be difficult to consistently design and maintain. We especially struggled with refactoring these types of structures since one has to read through all the code for the ....

I’ve been thinking about putting up my own blog/web journal for months, but I finally bit the bullet today. It’s fairly simple, quick and dirty, because I want to focus on delivering my ideas (and noodling on other projects) rather than obsessing about how this site works. If you’ve followed me for a long time, you might remember that “infinitelimit.net” was a “web-zine-blog” for developing games on Fantasy Consoles like the PICO-8 and ..

Minimalist News is the first LLM project that excites me but in a nervous way. Quoting the About page: We only publish significant news. To find them we use AI (ChatGPT-4) to read and analyze 1000 top news every day. For each article it estimates magnitude, scale, potential and credibility. Then we combine these estimates to get the final Significance score from 0 to 10. And now the best part: We’ll only send you the news scored 6.5 or..

I recently managed to get access to my Outlook email from Emacs. This took some doing as my university had disabled app passwords. I consider Outlook to be harmful , but inasmuch as companies and schools continue to enforce OAUTH-only authentication with email systems, it is good to find workarounds. This is how I set up email sending/receiving on my computer running macOS with DavMail . I also use mbsync (confusingly also known as is....

This blog post introduces a bookmarklet utilizing the EyeDropper API for quickly grabbing color information in Chromium-based desktop browsers. The bookmarklet simplifies color selection by opening the eyedropper tool and returning the chosen color's sRGBHex value in an alert box. A link to a related blog post about creating a similar Chrome extension is also included.

I moderate the “pleroma.envs.net” Akkoma instance on the Fediverse, as @Seirdy@pleroma.envs.net . I maintain four main blocklists for the Fediverse. Do not import them until you’ve read everything until the “receipts” section. I encourage blocklist skeptics to read the “receipts” sections, and to treat them as lists of reported content rather than importable blocklists. The pleroma.envs.net blocklist A large list of instances that I ....

It’s already May Woah, we have already surpassed the four-month mark for this year. A lot of things have happened in the last four months. In January, I was reassigned to my new team.

In the previous post , I have discussed a huge difference between p-values evaluated via the R implementation of the Mann-Whitney U test between the exact and asymptotic implementations. This issue is not unique only to R, it is relevant for other statistical packages in other languages as well. In this post, we review this problem in the Python package SciPy .

In this series so far, we reduced the storage cost of key/value lookups by a lot . And in the last post we optimized the process of encoding the keys and values significantly. This is great, but the toughest challenge is ahead of us, because as much as encoding efficiency matters, the absolute cost we have is doing lookups. This is the most basic operation, which we do billions of times a second. Any amount of effort we’ll spend here....
