The four most popular ways to use RDF-based metadata on websites are RDFa-Core, RDFa-Lite, Microdata, and inline JSON-LD. I can’t use RDFa-Lite because I need rel HTML attributes. rel silently upgrades RDFa-Lite to RDFa-Core , which parses differently. I doubt all parsers upgrade correctly; some will try to parse RDFa-Core as RDFa-Lite. Conformant RDFa parsers upgrade RDFa-Lite pages to RDFa-Core despite many authors only being familiar ....

Optimizing the information you show in your GitHub profile with dynamic PRs and blog content Recently I was toying with the somewhat new GitHub feature that allows you to create a repository with the same name as your GitHub username and host in it a README.md file that then is displayed in your profile and visible to whoever visits your profile page. While this feature is good, it's not too dynamic, but there are two things in our favour..

I was reading up on the recent Ultralytics GitHub Action compromise and I stumbled upon this great analysis of the situation. In it, zizmor is introduced, which is a static analysis tool for GitHub Actions. I experimented with it a bit and I have to say it's working great. It correctly identified misconfigured GitHub Actions on some repositories I was working on. It's another tool that's worth having as part of your CI.

When you have a web application, almost always, you need to run some functions/scripts regularly. This what cron is for. I wanted to find an easy way to run “cron-like” jobs inside a FastAPI app. The app runs inside docker, and I just need those jobs to run as long as the app is also running. Since the app is “async”, I found I can just have recurring background tasks as part of the app. We need to use the app lifespan and some functi..

This week’s practical philosophy seminar discussed personhood-based arguments for the resuscitation of extremely premature infants (EPIs). These notes focus less on discussion/paper specifics and more on what I learned about the topic as a whole during the discussion and afterward.

Transforming normals: adjugate transpose vs inverse transpose

Prompted by a discussion on twitter , in which github.com/graphitemaster/normals_revisited was linked, I looked into this issue. It's pretty confusing! Lets get into the details... We can define the geometric normal of a triangle as the vector formed by taking the cross product of the triangle edges: $$n_g = (v_1 - v_0) \times (v_2 - v_0)$$ or $$n_g = a \times b$$ where \(a\) and \(b\) are the edge vectors $$a = v_1 - v_0$$ $$b = v_....

What nobody seems to mention is, you're trading off reachability which could be critical for a lot of people that may not realize it at first. Imagine your significant other, friend, or fam....

Lately, I’ve been trying to learn more JavaScript. I wanted to explore web components. After checking out some frameworks and tools, mainly lit , tonic and facet , I wanted to build my own thing. It ended up being heavily inspired by tonic , but way simpler and with less features. I also really liked lit-html , which you can use as a separate package without having to use lit . It solves the problem of re-rendering only the UI pa..

Igår gick vi på vårt team-julbord! Jag har varit vegetarian i många, många år. Jag hade inte ätit fisk på ungefär… 10 år kanske, innan tidigare i år. Så detta var mitt första julbord (som jag minns) där jag åt fisk, och det var så väldigt gott! Men jag åt för mycket av det och vaknade upp med ont i magen. Värt det.

This was one of the most creative and enjoyable sci-fi books I’d read in a while. The two main storylines are split between spider-like intelligent aliens on a remote planet and the conflict between humans in orbit who are preparing to make First Contact. The way that the alien storyline is “translated” into English is a very compelling storytelling device. The human storyline paints a vivid picture of a far-future spacefaring civilizatio....

In this post, I will introduce OpenAI’s image generation APIs, which can convert a textual prompt into an image and perform many other tasks related to images. I am going to make an app called AvatarAI. It will generate an avatar based on different parameters. Avatars are very common in the digital world. People use them mainly as profil....
