This was a tough decision, having used Gmail since 2007/2008. However, I had to draw the line and stop giving Google my data for free. The problem with email is that everything is transmitted in plain text. Technically, Google can store every message you receive and know everything, and U.S. agencies can request access to that data (this include also EU citizens under the EU-U.S. and Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Frameworks ). For someone li..

The screen in front of him was full of code. The cursor blinked like a small rectangular block behind the last character he had typed—a semicolon. His hands rested in absolute stillness just above the keyboard. He had often thought he was one with the keyboard. Or with the machine through the keyboard, as an […]

Sous les conseils de mon entourage, j’ai lancé une seconde instance de ce site qui est accessible avec le sous-domaine srx (ça fait sérieux n’est-ce pas ?). Ça sera désormais ma front page pour mon CV et les autres sites de recrutement à la con . J’ai dû faire quelques changements dans mon site pour le faire tourner ; principalement des propriétés CSS pour l’index afin de cacher certaines choses, mais quand même n’avoir qu’un seul ..

Posúdenie ekonomickej životaschopnosti fotovoltaiky si vyžaduje dôkladné pochopenie výhod a problémov spojených s touto formou výroby energie. Fotovoltika je v podstate metóda výroby elektrickej energie premenou slnečnej energie na jednosmerný elektrický prúd pomocou polovodičových materiálov. Z viacerých dôvodov sa čoraz viac považuje za ekonomicky životaschopné riešenie našich rastúcich energetických potrieb. Na úvod treba povedať, že fot....

Second week of my NixOS notes on what happened in the community or that I learned that I found interesting.

Do you remember MapReduce? That distributed computing pattern that powered early Google and Hadoop? “Mapping” a lot of tasks to some compute clusters, then “reducing” the results? Well, I’ve been experimenting with applying the same concept to AI tasks using Claude Code, and the results have been surprisingly powerful. This is already being used to generate RAGs, but it’s a lot more fun to try it locally in your own documents.

The Marginalia Search index has been partially rewritten to perform much better, using new data structures designed to make better use of modern hardware. This post will cover the new design, and will also touch upon some of the unexpected and unintuitive performance characteristics of NVMe SSDs when it comes to read sizes. The index is already fairly large, but can sometimes feel smaller than it is, and paradoxically, query performance i..

Back to science fiction with another installment in the Hainish Cycle! The Telling is about orthodoxy, totalitarianism, and cultural revolution. It felt different than other sci-fi I’ve read from Le Guin. Instead of being a man from an alient planet like Hain-Davenant or Annares, the narrator is an Indian-Canadian woman from Earth. While the story takes place on the recently-uplifted planet Aka, Earth and the narrator’s rememberings and a..

I’m trying to get a bit back into the habit of daily blogging. I’ve found that when I get very in depth absorbed into development work, my blogging output decreases. It’s a focus thing, but also a balance thing. There are times when blogging can be an ephemeral and non-distracting activity, something you just do in a few minutes in between tasks. But it can also sometimes turn into something more involved. And when you are really in the thi..

Single Sign On scales headcount and maintains security under a single credential. Services unfairly price for SSO, so I made my own for a furry convention.

When considering an object-oriented programming problem, should you prefer inheritance or composition? Why wouldn't it just be simpler to use functions? Christopher Trudeau is back on the show this week, bringing another batch of PyCoder's Weekly articles and projects.

This is the online writing home of Tony Pisculli (I do other stuff in other places). You can find links to my published stories and interactive fiction, with notes on produced plays coming soon.
