Getting back to a defined and known state is a great way to recover. I found the concept of ‘crash-only-software’ very interesting, and the described approach of inevitable improvement and resilience from software that rather crashes than being in an unknown state. If it keeps crashing and you depend on it, you will get to understanding and fixing the issues quicker.

A week or so ago I wrote about how I was helping junior developer analyze the incoming parameters of an HTTP request in a Spring/Java Servlet application.

I try to have limited reliance on CSS media queries in favor of being inclusive by as many people as possible by default, including fingerprinting-averse readers. Unfortunately, I have concluded that it is impossible to set one single website color palette that ticks all of the following boxes: Familiar: colors aren’t particularly “novel” and don’t impose a learning curve. The difference between a visited and unvisited link should be clea....

This is first “note” on my IndieWeb Site. Notes will be shorter and less formal than typical blog posts; this is a microblog, not a typical weblog. Once this is working correctly, I’ll need to figure out a solution to POSSE these notes to the Fediverse.

Snyk recently discovered overt 200 malicious packages in the npm registry. While we acknowledge that vulnerability fatigue is an issue for developers, this article is not about the typical case of typosquatting or random malicious package. This article shares the findings of targeted attacks aimed at businesses and corporations that Snyk was able to detect and share the insights.

Somethings in life are time sensitive and some are not. A business opportunity may be time sensitive in that it will only be a success when certain things are aligned or maybe new technologies are available.

I stopped updating this blog after two posts for a couple reasons: I enjoyed setting up the website more then I did writing for it - I created the perfect blog in terms of reading it (personally, you may debate this), but paid no attention to how I was going to write for it, and editing Markdown files is just enough of a PITA that I wanted to avoid doing it (subconciously or otherwise)

This post extends the efficiency study of the Hodges–Lehmann estimator to various light-tailed and heavy-tailed distributions. In Pragmastat, this estimator is Center — the recommended robust location estimator. Confidence intervals are available via CenterBounds . pragmastat.dev github.com/AndreyAkinshin/pragmastat In the previous post , we evaluated the relative statistical efficiency of the Hodges-Lehmann median estimator..

yubiuser has updated the cool script PADD to v.3.7.0 for monitoring Pi-Hole stats, with some new cool features and optimizations. But since his version doesn’t fill a display like the Pimoroni HyperPixel 4" (800x480px) I have modified it to fill all the 800x480px screens and to have other usefuel info of the hardware and software (and the beautiful old logo). Here it is: Consider that this version is optimized for running on DietP..

Tl;dr: read the web instead of Linux for Networking Professionals . This book is a broad, shallow coverage that is probably more easily learned from web pages for free.

in this thread, we make programs/code as small as possible. this means you can do anything you want as long as its on just one file and is under 150 lines. you can use your preferred programming language for this, in this case I used the C programming language. take a look at a small program I made in C, it's quite pointless but I made it for fun. # include

FZF is fantastic! Well , of course it is. But it continues to amaze me how much mileage one can get from such a simple idea: a list selector that consumes stdin and prints to stdout. At some point I hacked together an FZF-based workflow to work with kubectl. In retrospect, kubectl-fzf might have done the job. But my workflow ended up very specific and ergonomic. The setup Let's not use the actual kubectl (not that easy to quic....

As I mentioned in my CompTIA blog post All About Linux and Linux+ ( https://www.comptia.org/blog/all-about-linux-and-linux ), Linux is essentially an open-source UNIX operating system. And since nearly all of the concepts, commands and files are identical between UNIX and Linux, anyone who works with Linux could easily administer a UNIX system. The macOS operating system that runs on Apple computers is a flavor of UNIX. Thus, most ..

A post recently made the rounds on hacker news claiming that you should teach your kids poker, not chess . The comments on that post go through a lot of the reasons why poker is a bad game to teach your children, but I felt that I was well suited to opine on this topic, and explain why duplicate bridge is the best game for practicing the life skills involved in business and programming, compared to all of the alternatives.
