This case study evaluates the accuracy of MAD estimation using the Harrell-Davis quantile estimator on Gumbel-distributed data. Pragmastat recommends Spread — the Shamos estimator — as a more efficient robust scale alternative. Confidence intervals are available via SpreadBounds . pragmastat.dev github.com/AndreyAkinshin/pragmastat In some of my previous posts, I used the median absolute deviation (MAD) to describe the dist....

In this post, we’ll look at some common software risks, how to measure security risks, and how organizations can use Datadog and Snyk to automate risk management.

Here are five books I read in 2020 that I would recommend. I read several fine books last year, so please check out my reading history if you are unsatisfied with this selection. Mani: Travels in the Southern Peloponnese , by Patrick Leigh Fermor . I love Patrick Leigh Fermor. Over the years, I read almost everything he wrote. He has been described as “a cross between Indiana Jones, James Bond, and Graham Greene,” and for a good rea....

I’ve been working on re-platforming the online banking system for a Canadian retail bank for over two years. Leading up to the initial launch, The Business decided to defer a few features to the next release which was scheduled for about a month later. We created a release branch to support defect fixes found in testing, and the development team continued adding features to the develop branch. Bug fixes from release were merged into deve..

Splitting headache at 10am. Not a fine way to start the day. For the last 10+ years, I’ve consumed 2-5 cups of coffee every day. I was hooked to coffee is an understatement. It had gotten so bad that if I didn’t get coffee by 9am, I’d get a debilitating migraine for the rest of the day. I also had restless sleep, bordering on insomnia, where I wouldn’t sleep at all for a couple nights a month.

Recently my workplace has been accepting some interns as part of contributing back to the industry in general, as well as promoting the brand and hopefully being able to grow and grab excellent candidates in the future when they graduate. One recently wanted some time to sit down with me to ask a few questions. In order to give him the best use of time I asked to have the questions written in advance so I could respond to them before chatti..

I have seen the mistake of confusing the two concepts at least one time, and it is probably not uncommon in cultures that are rather far away from both of them (such as, for instance, at time of writing, the U.S.A.). This is not meant to be an opinionated post advocating for either, and it is also not extremely detailed or accurate (if you want that, read the Wikipedia pages on "Social market economy" and "Socialist economics" ). It inst....

Distance 3.85 km / 2.39 miles Elevation gain 33 m / 109 ft Duration 1h30m Moving 55m Very wet, very few people about: good time to hike! A rather short, easy hike in very heavy rain. No one else was around, so it was easy to park at the trailhead. We went anti-clockwise around the lake (three months later we took the clockwise loop). At the south-western tip of oxbow lake, looking north-east. At the easter..

Distance 6.71 km / 4.17 miles Elevation gain 100 m / 327 ft Duration 2h30m Moving 1h45m A short New Year’s Day hike. We began at the last paved car park before Middle Fork Road turns to gravel, and used the footbridge to cross over Middle Fork Snoqualmie River. Other WTA trip reports had mentioned that the left path (heading east) was closed due to a landslide, so we took the right path (heading south-west).

1. Why WireGuard? When it comes to encrypting traffic between systems, there are a wide variety of different Virtual Private Network (VPN) software available, some of which have been used since the 1990s. Each of them focus on different encryption algorithms and flow control strategies, alongside mechanisms for providing for secure authentication and negotiating encryption keys. Unfortunately, this complexity often translates to mor..
