By Subha Wijesiriwardena While disinformation has become a much-talked about issue in social movements, as well as philanthropic and policymaking spaces, there’s not much consensus on how we understand it or its impact, nor about which tactics make for the best solutions. Similarly, while there is some recent attention paid to the concept of “gendered […]

By Sam de Silva In late May, I participated in Numun Fund’s three-day Disinfo Co-Lab in Bangkok. I was working as a consultant with Luminate’s Asia team, and fortunately for me, I was the only one from the team who was free and available to attend. The three days I spent at the Co-Lab provided […]

by Pamela Gloria Cajilig In a Philippine island that sits where the river meets the sea, a community of fisherfolk contemplate their future survival. Decades of poorly planned coastal development and governance have triggered a series of lingering, entangled, and totalizing flood disasters in this landscape that I have been visiting for the past four […]

By Yan Naung Oak In May, I received an invitation in my inbox to a “gathering” in Bangkok by some trusted colleagues working in the disinformation space. I learned that it was organized by the Numun Fund, an initiative that supports feminist tech movements, particularly in the Global South. My team and I at Thibi […]

It is incredibly easy to waste time. It is particularly sinister that certain corporations are dedicated to distracting me and wasting my time, when it is in fact a limited resource. I do not need to be spending on Reddit or Youtube, being sucked down random rabbit holes of wholy useless information. However, blocking them outright is not effective, as often useful information is gated on Reddit, so I’ll disable my blocker then get dist..

I categorically refuse to believe anybody actually enjoys ricotta cheese. For those unfamiliar, this Italian cheese comes out of a mistaken way to boil milk in the Bronze age, and for some reason hundreds of years later, it’s still an ingredient people try to eat. It’s tasteless, so all you really have to go off of is its texture, which is chewy, grainy, and offputting - it has the same consistency of curdled milk (because it is), except ..

A lot of things seem to serve to unintentionally nerd snipe me. Over the weekend, a friend introduced me to The Initials Game . The gist of it is that you are given two letters and a series of clues. The goal is to guess a two-word phrase that starts with the given letters. It’s a pretty entertaining game and I wondered how easy it would be to generate such puzzles. The next day I was able to hack something together in a couple hours t....

If a Pokémon appears in 5% of wild Pokémon encounters, I should expect to see it once every 20 encounters or so. What if I told you that it was more like once in every 118 encounters?

Niet meer afhankelijk zijn van het stroomnetwerk is iets dat mij fascineert. Guy Vrancken vertelt op Tweakers hoe hij dit voor elkaar heeft gekregen. Ik vind het vooral interessant hoe hij slim omgaat met zijn stroomgebruik. Zo zet hij zijn vriezer overdag, als de zon schijnt, extra koud en als de zon ondergaat helemaal uit. Hierdoor blijft alles koel genoeg. En als je dit combineert met slimme domotica oplossingen kun je het in theorie vol..

Dominic Frisby ziet de Ozempic hype met lede ogen aan en biedt een alternatief: Appel cider azijn. Hij gebruikt het (onregelmatig) dagelijks drie keer per dag (theelepel verdund in water) omdat het de eetlust schijnt te onderdrukken. Hoe wetenschappelijk is het? Geen idee maar het een tijdje proberen kan volgens mij geen kwaad.

Introduction LibreQoS is an open source project for monitoring and providing quality-of-experience for Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and large networks. It runs as a “middle-box”, monitoring traffic that passes through it. It recently gained the ability to track individual data flows - connections between two endpoints. It’s also my favorite Open Source project, to which I contribute regularly. Public Internet IP addresses belong..

Like many programmers, I have programming hobbies . One of these is implementing new languages. My most recent language project, l1 , was a Lisp dialect whose primary data types are symbols and arbitrarily-large integers. I've been happy with l1, but it is interpreted; since I was actively working on it last (2022), I've been wondering about the best way to generate compiled standalone executable programs, written in l1 or any othe....

Today I learned about using zero-knowledge proofs in the context of passwords. These are my rough-and-ready notes from reading. Apparently OpenSSL has an implementation of the SRP algorithm.

We spent a weekend in Venice 1 a short while ago, and one of the things that caught my attention was the wells in the city’s squares. Is there fresh water underneath that brackish swamp water? Well, no. The water from the wells in Venice is rainwater, collected by an ingenious hydraulic collection system that leveraged the square and surrounding buildings. I learned this and other intriguing tidbits by watching The Crazy Engineering o..

I got into an interesting discussion on LinkedIn about my previous post, talking about Code Rot . I was asked about Legacy Code defined as code without tests and how I reconcile code rot with having tests. I started to reply there, but it really got out of hand and became its own post. “To me, legacy code is simply code without tests.” Michael Feathers, Working Effectively with Legacy Code I read Working Effectively with Leg....

Quantiles can represent key operational and business metrics, but the computational challenges associated with inference has hampered their adoption in online experimentation. In a new paper, I present a two-sample difference-in-quantile hypothesis test and confidence interval based on a likelihood-ratio test statistic. It can be computed using only four order statistics from each sample. arXiv link: Likelihood-ratio inference on differenc..

Quoting Bryan Baun : Capability makes your life simpler. Tolerance, skills, knowledge, and health are always with you, wherever you go. They are assets but they take up no space. They are stored in your body. Some lack capability through no fault of their own, but anyone can increase their capability. It’s an investment that pays dividends every day.

I just got back from a month-long break in Cambodia, traveling with my family. I took advantage of the wide-open space with zero work expectations to give me some time to truly reflect on my career so far and what comes next. I’ve had a pretty successful career in tech spanning twenty years that, for the most part, paid off quite well. It’s afforded me a life that I never would have imagined when I was running around barefoot in a trailer p..
