The last Inkscape about screen contest had two entries that called my attention for being created in Inkscape and for how nice they looked. Not having used Inkscape for low poly before, I decided to give it a try. After reading a handful of tutorials, I realized it is a very interesting and relaxing process. You use a reference photo with low opacity as background, and then create the polygons manually with a vector pen.

Hash functions are a fundamental part of modern programming. They map a variable-sized input to a fixed-size output. We can use them to: Verify the integrity of files and make sure they have not been modified. Save a password in a database without the risk that if somebody steals the data, they will be able to know the passwords. Create a hash table to store items. With that, we can find them faster and using less memory.

Preface This is a cursory review of all the indexing search engines I have been able to find. The three dominant English search engines with their own indexes 1 are Google, Bing, and Yandex (GBY). Many alternatives to GBY exist, but almost none of them have their own results; instead, they just source their results from GBY. With that in mind, I decided to test and catalog all the different indexing search engines I could find. I pr....

I’ve had pain in my right wrist from computer usage for a while now, last 5 years or so. To fix it I’ve done lots of stuff, like: Move to using mouse left handed Move to roller ball left handed mouse Move to ergonomic keyboard Move to fully split keyboard In the arms race that is keeping my wrists working I decided to go for the next step and get a (expensive) programmable and columnar and see if it helped.

I am a staff engineer at Canonical, where I have worked for six years. My time here has been filled with brilliant people and amazing technology, and I’ve had the pleasure and privilege of playing pivotal roles getting a number of new projects off the ground. As I’ve said in the past, I joined Canonical to help my technical growth, and they delivered in spades. I have really loved my time here, which made the decision to leave all the more ..

With the advent of smartphones, social media platforms are on the rise. Let's step back and try to understand what social media are, not by citing events and instances happening on the different platforms, nor the countless consequences but by describing the characteristics of this new informational channel. We'll go over the rest later but let's take some distance for now.

So you’re trying to use the Terraform azurerm_function_app_host_keys resource to get the keys from an Azure function after deployment. Sadly, as of 03/2021, this can fail intermittently 😢 (See issue 1 and 2 ).+ [Edit: Hopefully this issue is resolved by this PR once released so worth reviewing once the change is released] These errors can look something like these below: Error making Read request on AzureRM Function App Hostke..

I am an application/backend developer who has to quibble with databases more often than desired. I can get my way around Postgres pretty well, but I can always use a hint or two, especially when it comes to fine-tuning and performance. I stumbled upon Cleaning Up Your Postgres Databases . It offers useful advice on spotting performance bottlenecks in your Postgres database. Take the cache and index hit queries, for example. The first..

There are dozens of different ways to estimate quantiles. One of these ways is to use the Sfakianakis-Verginis quantile estimator. To be more specific, it’s a family of three estimators. If we want to estimate the $p^\textrm{th}$ quantile of sample $X$, we can use one of the following equations: $$ \begin{split} \operatorname{SV1}_p =& \frac{B_0}{2} \big( X_{(1)}+X_{(2)}-X_{(3)} \big) + \sum_{i=1}^{n} \frac{B_i+B_{i-1}}{2} X_{(i)} + \frac{....
