At the time of publishing, it’s 2 years since I’ve been booted as a paying customer from JottaCloud. This post may come off as sour and bitter, but it’s not. I’m happy I got booted as a paying customer. It forced me to create a proper backup with restic, which also has client side encryption as a first class citizen. Why it’s taken 2 years to publish this post is because of 1) life, and 2) Jotta must surely have deleted all my data by n..

Once in a while we encounter a truly malicious package that has a purpose, means, and is production-ready — this is a story about one found in npm: gxm-reference-web-auth-server.

Foreword I am writing this essay for the same reason I do most of my writing: to jot down a self-consistent framework for thinking about a certain topic that I can later refer to and rely upon, so that I can avoid being hoodwinked by the often chaotic and contradictory discussions surrounding said topic. Censorship and freedom of speech are certainly one such topic. On one side of the planet, totalitarian regimes are throwing people in j..

A love story cut short — remembering Sona, who taught me what it means to truly care for others, build with purpose, and find someone who shares your frequency.

Newcomers to Clojure so frequently ask this question that an FAQ/Guide is being discussed, to add to the Clojure website. I struggled a lot with the question too, when starting off in Clojureland. Here are my notes and opinions.

For more background information and to read where I'm coming from, see my previous post, meditations on minimalism . I'm an old school person. For years, I always accomplished my things the old school way. Using a desktop system, preferring local-first file storage, organizing and curating these files by hand, sometimes painstakingly. This never meant that I denounce newer technologies, but I always put them to the back of the queue, or ....

In this post, we’ll discuss why developers include native C/C++ extensions in their high-level language projects. Then, we’ll use Python and the PyPI registry to detect hidden C-related vulnerabilities in higher-level language projects and reveal how low-level vulnerabilities can impact higher-level code.

First, create a custom dataset class. from torch.utils.data import Dataset, DataLoader class CustomDataset(Dataset): def __init__(self, features, labels): assert len(features) == len(labels) self.features = features self.labels = labels def __len__(self): return len(self.features) def __getitem__(self, idx): return self.features[idx], self.labels[idx] Next, create a custom dataloader where we specify the batch size. features, la..

Last year I was on the market for a new mechanical keyboard. What I purchased was the Keychron K4, a nice model indeed. I wrote a review which was published by OfB.biz (thanks Tim!) You can read my review here. Hope you like it.

Following my last post regarding SSO with Authentik I thought I should post my passportjs configuration for Node-Red and OpenidConnect. Currently User accounts work, however I haven't gotten group based permissions setup yet. Note This guide is based off the Gitea integration guide from the Authentik docs. Preparation The following placeholders will be used: authentik.company is the FQDN of authentik. nodered.company is the ....

The tic tac toe game developed in plain javascript. It was particularly tricky for me to implement the validation of immediately displaying whether a player won the game or not. At the time I thought this was the most good looking project I have built yet. It was minimal and clean looking with a good UX This was created as a part of The Odin Project curriculum. Tech used HTML5 CSS Plain JavaScript Screenshots

Update: Just as I started blogging about the Optane technology, it turns out that Intel is shutting down the Optane business (after bringing the latest-gen “Crow Pass” Optane memory to market - probably just for satisfying existing commitments). While not exactly the same thing, keep an eye on the new CXL standard developments to see where the data center/cloud infrastructure world is going (CXL is basically cache-coherent disaggregated..

I found myself effectively without a job on short notice. I’m not at all worried about finding another one, I have savings, and I have experience, and I have demonstrable skill. What I am concerned about is finding a source of income that’s compatible with putting some time on my personal projects. Last bunch of years, I’ve been working 32 hour weeks, which is a pretty sweet deal especially combined with the zero hour commute you get wo..

Introducing Rebar3 TypEr Do you have an Erlang codebase that’s a little short on type specs? Maybe you know TypEr exists, but wouldn’t it be nice to: incorporate it into your build system? configure it only once? have it ✨ magically✨ figure out all the command line arguments for you? Good news We built that! It’s called rebar3_typer, and it (as the name implies) plugs into rebar3. With that rebar3 integration comes understanding th....

This post derives the exact analytical bias-correction factor for MAD with $n = 2$. Pragmastat recommends Spread — the Shamos estimator — as a more efficient robust scale estimator that avoids these corrections altogether. Confidence intervals are available via SpreadBounds . pragmastat.dev github.com/AndreyAkinshin/pragmastat I already covered the topic of the unbiased median deviation based on the traditional sample median..
