This entry is about a few problems the search engine has been struggling with lately, and how I’ve been attempting to remedy them. Before the article starts, I wanted to share an amusing new thing in the world of Internet spam. For a while, people have been adding things like “reddit” to the end of their Google queries to get less blog spam. Well, guess what? The blog spammers are adding “reddit” to the end of their titles now.

After five years in Oracle’s MySQL team, Steinar H. Gunderson resigned a few days ago. On the same day, he dropped the bomb on his blog : let me point out something that I’ve been saying both internally and externally for the last five years (although never on a stage—which explains why I’ve been staying away from stages talking about MySQL): MySQL is a pretty poor database, and you should strongly consider using Postgres instead 1 ..

Space-junkie me is back, this time reading about the innumerable opportunities that SpaceX’s Starship will offer once it becomes operational, hopefully no later than this year or the next. In his Science Upside for Starship , the exceptionally knowledgeable Casey Handmer makes a case for Starship relevance in the future of space exploration by listing an astounding number of reasonable use-cases for the vessel. I think it is relatively..

In any organization, the role of a manager is crucial to ensure that the team performs to its full potential. As teams grow larger and more complex, managing them effectively becomes increasingly challenging. At a certain point, you need to subdivide the team into several teams and make the decision to either promote or hire additional managers. This is where a director takes on the role of a “manager of managers.

Over the years, although a tremendously valuable tool, IntelliJ IDEA started to feel slowed down, even on these latest M1 Pro machines. It’s become frustrating. I disabled as many plugins as not needed. However, it’s still not sufficient. I have discovered that you can improve the performance by switching IDEA to the latest JDK. JetBrains has its runtime with its patches for HiDPI supports, performance improvements, and bugfixes for running..

Let’s say we have two distributions $X$ and $Y$, and we want to express the “absolute difference” between them. This abstract term could be expressed in various ways. My favorite approach is to build the Doksum’s shift function . In order to do this, for each quantile $p$, we should calculate $Q_Y(p)-Q_X(p)$ where $Q$ is the quantile function. However, some people prefer using the shift distribution $Y-X$. While both approaches may provide..

The following is from a essay from a class on German literature and film. Fritz Lang’s movie Metropolis is primarily about the struggle between the oppressed working class and the ruling elite. What drives this tension, however, is a particular view of technology and technological progress that exacerbates the problems the film focuses on. This mentality is called high modernist ideology by Scott in his book Seeing Like a State : ....

Comments Problems Isn’t it great when a problem fixes itself? I’ve seen this happen more often with people systems than with technology. Ignore that email a couple of days and it’s likely not to be a problem anymore. With technology we usually have to take some action. Reboot a server, add a sleep, or add more resources. It’s not a “fix” but the problem isn’t visible for a little while so we can go back to doing other things.

Flashing SAS Cards feels like a trip to the 90s, with all the peculiarities included. This particular LSI SAS9201-16e card left me puzzled, until I realized it is the Supermicro variant that needs special handling. Let's see if I can pull together the important pieces, so that those who come after me don't need to give up on their cards.

First: Avoid Being Chased Down # I live in Italy and, when I was a child, I didn’t really believe in Santa – I was already asking too many questions. I didn’t mind too much being a good child to receive nice gifts, but a few hundreds of kilometers from me, things were (are!) quite different.

Sait Faik Abasıyanık is an acclaimed Turkish storyteller. A useless man is a collection of short stories that spans nearly two decades of the author’s output, offering a glimpse into his imaginative and troubled mind. His overflowing love for others (even sensual, with a preference for street kids) combined with a “mal de vivre” that pushes him towards self-destruction are apparent. His passion for the most popular areas of Istanbul an....
