I’m always looking for ways to reduce my expenses. Looking at my electric bill, there’s not much there to cut. My average bill over the last eleven months was about $28.00:

It all started innocently enough. I had “jfrazelle” as my GitHub handle for years, but my Twitter, IRC and other handles are all “jessfraz”. No one on GitHub was actually using “jessfraz” so I sat on it waiting to make my move. I’m currently on vacation this week so of course I was looking to break all the things. One thing you must know about me is that at no point was I thinking I hate this. I actually love stuff like this, I live for....

My nephew Timofey has some trouble accepting the arbitrary authority of adults. In this case, while the mother was away, an older man said something to him in an authoritative voice. Timofey’s reaction was to try and search for his mother, and - after that proved ineffective - to discharge his emotions in a loud, angry but non-confrontational way. He just screamed some meaningless speech-like sounds into the air. Glossolalia - speaking ..

There are two primary paradigms for the discovery of digital content. First is the search paradigm, in which the user is actively looking for specific content using search terms and filters (e.g., Google web search, Flickr image search, Yelp restaurant … Continue reading →

This is a bash function definition that takes you to the top level directory of a git project. function cdtop () { local git_root; git_root=`git rev-parse --show-toplevel`; if [ $? -eq 0 ] then cd ${git_root} else return 1 fi } Here's a git alias that does serves a similar purpose. What this does is define a new alias, exec, that executes a shell command in the current project's root. git config --global ali..

Sede de la bolsa de mercados y valores de madrid Permíteme que te explique cómo decidí que la inversión en bolsa era el camino que quería seguir para rentabilizar mis modestas inversiones. Todo empezó por una (creo que sensata) preocupación por cómo llegaría al momento de mi jubilación . La primera preocupación, y aunque parece remota, era siquiera si iba a disponer de una jubilación y la segunda, si la cantidad a percibir cubriría lo q....

As of me typing these words, my little truck experiment has been going on for over a year and four months. That’s been more than enough time to see a thousand different questions fly through this site and my inbox, and every so often I’ll sit down and answer a few of them . But there’s one question that I haven’t answered, and can’t seem to escape. It’s usually one of the first questions to come up in conversation, and half a bazillion var..

I specifically attended yesterday’s Fuzenation Technology & Music Summit in Kitchener, Ontario to hear Steve Wozniak (a.k.a. The Woz) speak. In short, he’s the co-founder of Apple, and the engineer who created the Apple I and Apple II computers. The Apple II was the first successful, mass-produced personal computer, and as the Woz points out, the “first one that could play arcade games in full colour” (I still have an Apple II that I use..

If you are following Go development you probably know that: Go 1.7 moves the golang.org/x/net/context package into the standard library as context, Yeah ! Unfortunately it won’t work for everything, I’ve spent some time understanding this one. For example if you are using gRPC you can hit this problem, here is an interface generated by gRPC: type APRSServer interface { GetPastMessages(context.Context, *Point) (*ARPSMessages, error) } But wh..

No te sientas solo, es lo más normal. Y lo digo porque a mi me pasa exactamente lo mismo: es un mundo lleno de _jargon _y donde cometer un error sale caro, pero por contra, el potencial beneficio es muy interesante. ¿Y por qué si no tengo ni idea de en lo que me estoy metiendo, sigo adelante? Primero: quiero ahorrar y que mis ahorros crezcan lo máximo posible, como le gustaría a cualquier hijo de vecino. Segundo: aunque en este pu..

Every year we hold an internal developers conference called DevCon. This year we had 295 submissions for talks, ranging from a deep technical dive into the inner workings of Kafka to a reflection on the power of office pranks. I wondered what, if anything, do these submissions have in common? Are there any common themes/topics being discussed? To find out I decided to visualize the talk submissions in a word cloud to create an easily under..

I have seen a lot of posts like this subject, but almost all of them were about stuff you should do and almost none of them reflected how I truly feel, how I want a product to be so I can “love” it.

This is a guest post by my friend and colleague Samantha Davies. Samantha is a math Ph.D student at the University of Washington, and a newly minted math blogger. Go check out her blog, With High Probability. If I said “let’s talk about temperature and voltage”, you might be interested, but few would react the same if instead I suggested an umbrella term: harmonic functions. Harmonic functions are often introduced as foreign operators that ..

In one of my hobby projects I needed to display additional information on top of a running video. The whole project is based on the Raspberry Pi and Python. This article describes the approach I’ve taken to display arbitrary content over the video with the help of the very flexible (and admittedly awesome) Kivy framework.

The arrow of time may famously only point only one way, but the progress in computer science takes a weaving non-linear path through the thing we understand as time. The current understanding of how “undo” works within computer programs is pretty fixed; all programs use “undo” and “redo” in the same way? But could “undo” and “redo” be more advanced? To look for a more advanced version than we use today we have to look to an algorithm I..

Go Mobile can generate native framework for iOS and Android using Go code, I was curious what could be achieved with it. Most tutorials are Hello world and I wanted to test it with real code. You can use it to generate a full app only using Go code, but I’m only interested by the bindings part (SDK applications), using a native ObjC/Swift app calling Go code. I’m using some existing Go code regionagogo, (a geofence database), moderately com..
