1600 words, 8 minutes. Turning Up The Magnification Three lens microscope for simultaneous observations. 1882 This is the second of a short series of posts about the Cyber Security market. This market is interesting now because I believe it’s at a juncture where we can choose one of two possible futures. We being the product builders, investors, and customers. In the previous postI presented you with a choice. A choice between a beautiful ..

Every time you finish writing a blog post you get that feeling that it’s not ready to post it. It’s time for proofreading, but it’s painful to proofread your own writings. What is fun instead is reading someone else’s writings. So how great would it be if you could post your drafts somewhere, read and comment a couple of blog posts by people with your same interests, while your own get proofread by people like you?

Just try these steps occ ‘files:scan –all’ occ ‘files:cleanup’ if already solved stop where, if not proceed with step 4 occ ‘maintenance:mode –on’ sign in to your mysql db and run: “delete from oc_file_locks where 1;” occ ‘maintenance:mode –off’

Having multiple clients to handle multiple networks is a mess, especially the Slack client which is really heavy and annoying. Slack is deprecating its IRC gateway interface on May 15h 2018. Bitlbee is an IRC server working as a gateway to different IMs. Optionally Bitlbee can be compiled with LibPurple to support even more networks, like Slack and Hangouts. Here are some notes for Slack, Facebook and Hangouts to be enabled with Bitlbee.

I’m the chair this year for the first(!) ACM SIGPLAN International Workshop on Numerical Programming in Functional Languages (NPFL), which will be co-located with ICFP this September in St. Louis, Missouri, USA. Please consider submitting something! All you have to do is submit between half a page and a page describing your talk. There will … Continue reading Workshop on Numerical Programming in Functional Languages (NPFL)

There's this popular idea among developers that when you face a problem with code, you should get out a rubber duck and explain, to the duck, exactly how your code was supposed to work. Read more "Strange and maddening rules"

Something I always forget and have to search for is how to use Python to serve a directory for local testing and the like. Including it below so I have a copy I can always easily look it up. python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8090 and in Python 3 python3 -m http.server

This post covers the Langevin equation , a stochastic differential equation that models the dynamics of particles in Brownian motion 1 . This covers the ideas used in this reference due to Lennart Sjögren. Langevin Equation In 1907 Einstein published a paper that derived a macroscopic quantity $D$, the diffusion constant, with microscopic quantities : $$D = \frac{k_BT}{6\pi\eta a}$$ where $\eta$ is the viscosity of the liquid ....

Practice makes perfect. Or at least, it does help improve your skills. It does make you a better designer. A better problem solver. A better engineer. A better maker. Just better. Here are some resources to up your game. 1. Designercize Fancy designing a sortable list view for a habit-tracking app to help film snobs? Or how about designin dashboard for a smart home watering system, to help social media managers?

In class we recently discussed the simplified elastic rod model for polymers, which assumes that polymers can be modeled as an inextensible rod , i.e. that the length of the rod doesn't change, and that the twist of the polymer is ignorable (possibly because the polymer is joined by single bonds). I want to give a short proof of the statement that the tangent-tangent correlation function , i.e. the autocorrelation of the polymer at some d....

Expect tests are a technique I’ve written about before , but until recently, it’s been a little on the theoretical side. That’s because it’s been hard to take these ideas out for a spin due to lack of tooling outside of Jane Street’s walls.

Here's some miscellaneous notes on what I've gotten set up on my new linux laptop so far. Distribution and Desktop Environment I tried 3: PopOS (ubuntu tweaked for system76, gnome-shell desktop) Xubuntu (ubuntu with Xfce4 desktop) Linux Mint Xfce4 (ubuntu with xfce4 desktop) I like to think that I don't care that much about my desktop environment but I couldn't find a good clipboard manager for gnome shell and that was enough to make ....

Voltage converter in 3D printed casing I’m using Yamaha THR5 electric guitar amplifier. It’s possible to power it with batteries. It isn’t economically good solution though. Something rechargeable would be way better. Since I had a Li-Po battery lying around I made a small dongle which regulates the voltage.

When I’m not in Flowhub-land , I’m used to developing software in a quite customized command line based development environment. Like for many, the cornerstones of this for me are vim and tmux . As customization increases, it becomes important to have a way to manage that and distribute it across the different computers. For years, I’ve used a dotfiles repository on GitHub together with GNU Stow for this. However, this still mea....

I love the way this article explains some of the key issues with designing distributed systems and how to solve them. It uses the illustration of a theme park and the rides - very clever and a fun read, which is unusual for a distributed systems article!
