New Service, Vaultwarden ~aryak Thu, 08 Nov 2022 Today I setup Vaultwarden (previously Bitwarden-RS), a bitwarden server for ~vern. With this we have a bitwarden server to host passwords, which will be the primary way for ~vern passwords to be shared between us three. We hope that this helps more people start using password manages and secure their logins better! Thank you for being a part of ~vern.

New Service, YaCy ~cobra Tue, 08 Nov 2022 A few days ago, I set up three YaCy instances on ~vern. YaCy is a distributed search engine built on the principles of peer-to-peer (P2P) networks. The reason there are three instances is for onion, I2P, and clearnet; I wouldn’t want to have I2P and onion results when I’m on a clearnet browser. The only YaCy instance that is connected to other peers is the clearnet one, because I couldn’..

So you're building serverless applications with Microsoft Azure Functions, but you need to persist data to a database. What do you do about controlling the number of concurrent connections to your dat... The post Getting Started with MongoDB Atlas and Azure Functions using Node.js appeared first on Microsoft .

Pour compiler, par exemple, un fichier test.ml, voici la commande à utiliser : $ ocamlbuild test.byte Tous les fichiers temporaires sont ainsi générés dans un dossier _build/ et un lien symbolique test.byte -> _build/test.byte est créé. Problème : VSCode et l’extension OCaml Platform a besoin des .cmi pour pouvoir utiliser plusieurs fichiers dans un projet. Pour résoudre ce problème, on peut créer un lien symbolique dans le dossier rac..

In the previous post , we obtained the finite-sample Gaussian efficiency values of the sample median and the Harrell-Davis median. In this post, we extended these results and get the finite-sample Gaussian efficiency values of the trimmed Harrell-Davis median estimator based on the highest density interval of the width $1/\sqrt{n}$ .

Nerdy prelude. Local Bulletin Board Systems (BBS) were all the range when I was a teenager. With my group of local hackers, we hacked our way into ITAPAC, the then-leading Italian packet-switching network (we are talking pre-Internet era here.) Via ITAPAC, we’d connect to so-called “out-dial systems” in the USA. From one of those, we’d finally call our target BBSes with a local call at no cost. We felt so invincible! I signed up on Channel..

This is an idea I’ve seen repeated before. I need to push back on it. Assistive technology (AT) interfaces with an operating system’s accessibility APIs. A browser converts the Document Object Model (DOM) into an assistive tree, and sends that to the OS accessibility API. Now, some screen readers actually do hook into the browser; NVDA does this with Firefox and Chromium. But this isn’t always the case. ATs need to crawl an accessibilit..

Progressive enhancement is a wonderful thing. I try to make sites usable in browsers of that era (with a TLS terminator) despite using several HTML 5 and bleeding-edge CSS features. Every feature possible should be progressive. Here’s the compatibility statement for seirdy.one I’m not asking anything too radical: when you want to use a feature, just try to make support optional. If there are two ways to do something, have a bias towar..

Some time ago I wrote about creating leet speak guid’s as a way of having fun while working with sitecore. https://boyter.org/2014/05/unique-guid/ I recently realised I wanted to have this around so I could create more interesting guids for one reason or another, but couldn’t find the script I was using back then. So I created it again, and its now on github as a gist for myself and anyone else to use https://gist.github.com/boyter/6f5..

Wikipedia cites a few different sources on what “Unix Philosophy” is. Peter Salus summarizes it as: Write programs that do one thing and do it well. Write programs to work together. Write programs to handle text streams, because that is a universal interface. That second bullet point is my favorite: making composable programs rather than monolithic systems. In this way, Unix is designed to be a forge for easily building new tools.....

I get my best ideas when I’m not working. This seems paradoxical, but past a point, the more I work on a project the slower it seems to go. I’ll find changes to do, but lose any sort of vision. If I’m not programming at all, I rarely get good ideas as well. There appears to be some magic stoichiometric mixture where I work on a project for a while, then force myself to take a break somewhere far away from any keyword for a day or two,..

Mastodon is a decentralized, federated social network technology. With Twitter recently realizing its investor’s goals via an — unorthodox — sale to a wealthy entrepreneur and industrial scion with hard-right-leaning values, many people have wondered whether the platform will remain a useful or habitable place. Mastodon has been suggested as a possible Twitter replacement, and I’ve been trying to understand what, and more important where, M..

Motivation River is a Python library for online machine learning. One of the main features of River is its support for data streams, which are continuous streams of data that are produced and consumed in real-time. This makes it well-suited for handling large volumes of data, as well as for handling data that is generated continuously. I started contributing to the project in February 2019, mainly in the stats and time_series modules.

What Is Synthetic Data? Synthetic data is machine-generated data based on real-world data. It requires building a machine learning (ML) model to capture the patterns in the original, real data before generating new synthetic data based on these patterns. The generated data accurately represents the original data’s statistical distributions, patterns, and properties. Synthetic data is useful for applications facing privacy concerns – it is ....

Whether you think about them all the time or never at all – mountain bike brakes are what keep you alive on those gnarly descents. And while the whole braking system matters, I’m not going to talk about rotor sizes, 2-piston vs. 4-piston, or lever angle; I’m talking about the humble brake pad. I had long considered brake pad choice a foregone decision – resin (organic) pads are king and metal pads (sintered) are for Huffy! But t....

A few weeks ago, I added an "open with" command to dwim-shell-commands.el . It's pretty handy for opening files using an external app (ie. not Emacs) other than the default macOS one. dwim-shell-commands-macos-open-with and dwim-shell-commands-open-externally are typically enough for me to handle opening files outside of Emacs. But every now and then I'd like to change the default macOS app associated with specific file types. Now this....

WebAssembly defines a portable binary-code format for executable programs. It can be used to run languages that support WebAssembly in the browser. Thus, you are no longer restricted to only use JavaScript in the browser. In this article I want to show you which programming languages currently support WebAssembly.

Think of this type of NFT as a magic item from your Dungeon Master. You can put as many magic potions in your inventory as you want, but unless they were issued by the DM, they are worthless in your game. There’s no need to distribute your inventory list to every DM in every game […]
