I have been editing the next science fiction book. The plan is to hire an editor to go through it as well, since the previous books made enough income to pay for that. Editing will be the first service I pay for in my self-publishing journey. If things continue to go well, I might start buying proper on-market covers as the next step (but I also really like designing my own covers, so we’ll see…it’s just that I know nothing I come up with w..

At a previous job, we had a new and fancy office. The light switches were state of the art. There was an on button, and a separate off button. When you pressed the on button, the lights would fade on. When you pressed the off button, they would fade off. In the cloud somewhere was two functions that presumably looked a bit like this: fun turnOnLamp() { while (!bright()) increaseBrightness(); } fun turnOffLamp() { while (!dark()) decreaseBr..

How to Solve It , but for operational incidents. Engineers with site reliability responsibilities are often faced with operational issues (incidents) that have an unknown cause and uncertain solution. How to Solve It is a classic work describing heuristics for solving mathematical problems. There have been adaptations of this book for different domains, but none yet for software-intensive operations. Within this study, we aim to build ....

Let’s set the stage first. So, it’s Tuesday night and I’m Command Tab-ing my way through 10 different apps, some with 3-4 windows, while trying to patch bugs in Lunar faster than the users can submit the reports. I’m definitely failing. I feel my brain pulsing and my ring finger going numb on the Tab key. I stop switching apps and just stare at the Xcode window, containing what I knew was Swift code but looked like gibberish right n....

There seem to be three kinds of Python developers: those unaware of type hints or have no opinion, ones that embrace them, and others who have an allergic reaction at the mention of them. Python is famously a dynamically typed language, but there are advantages to adding type hints to your code. This week on the show, we have Luciano Ramalho to discuss his recent talk titled, "Type hints, protocols, and good sense."

This explains how to configure multiple keyboards in Sway, and how to use advanced configuration when regular xkb_options are not enough. Sway configuration Luckily, Sway has great support for multiple keyboards with different layouts, so it nicely adjusts to whatever keyboard you have plugged in or can use separate configurations for a physical keyboard and the laptop keyboard. First, identify the identifiers for the keyboards you have....

I recently took the Certified Kubernetes Application Developer (CKAD) exam and passed with 97 out of 100. Some background about myself. I have been a backend + infra engineer working with Kubernetes via Google Cloud’s managed service: GKE for the past few years. I am also a (Ubuntu) Linux user for both the desktop and servers. I am familiar with basic linux commands, bash, tmux and vim. The primary motivations for me were

Update: the final paper was published in Communications in Statistics - Simulation and Computation (DOI: 10.1080/03610918.2022.2050396 ). Since the beginning of this year, I have been working on building a quantile estimator that provides an optimal trade-off between statistical efficiency and robustness. Finally, I have built such an estimator. A paper preprint is available on arXiv: arXiv:2111.11776 [stat.ME] . The paper source c..

Comments Logic How people think has been on the mind of philosophers for ages. Aristotle had the most famous works on logic for around 2000 years. In the 1600’s Gottfried Leibniz attempted to improve on Aristotle’s logic by simplifying it and representing it in mathematical notation. Two hundred years later George Boole further simplified Leibniz’s logic and notation into what we know today as Boolean algebra. Every introduction to c..
