I made 3D models for Hexiamond puzzle pieces, which can be downloaded here (STL format). Each Hexiamond piece consists of 6 triangles, which yields 12 different pieces when you try out all combinations. 3d model of a Hexiamond More background information and some interesting puzzles to try can be found on this nice page by David Goodger: http://puzzler.sourceforge.net/docs/hexiamonds.html

Being an open source software maintainer is hard. The following post is geared towards maintainers and not contributors. If you are a new contributor to open source I would stop reading now because I don’t want you to get the wrong idea or discourage you. Tons of patch requests get merged per day, but this is going to focus on the ones that don’t. I’ve talked to maintainers from several different open source projects, mesos, kubernetes, c....

In the short story ‘Poseidon’, by Franz Kafka, the great god of the sea is said to be unhappy with his role of administrating all of Earths bodies of water. The punchline is that due to his dismissal of his assistants as unskilled for the tasks he deems so important, he is him self a prisoner of his own ego. Drowning in paperwork, he is never to be able to make time to experience the oceans he oversees.

I just listened to The Changelog Episode 201 on SQLite with Richard Hipp. Completely fascinating. This project is completely on outlier on so many different facets. It is one of the most widely-used software projects of all time. It is the work of a very small team (3 engineers I believe have done the vast majority of the coding). Richard codes it in a text editor he wrote (I believe Linus Torvalds also uses a custom editor he wrote)...

uk transfers are a little different: You instruct your old registrar to change the "IPS tag" to point the domain to your new registrar. You tell your new registrar that the domain just assigned to them is yours. The new registrar then dutifully updates all of Nominet's records. Even if the name... email... address... you provided them with bears no relation to the existing (private?) registration information. Who cares if you had 2 fact....

The good news is that I'm officially restarting work on The Complete Friday Q&A: Volume II. I got partway into it a while ago and ran out of steam. The restarted edition includes all posts made since then, making it pretty massive. I can't commit to a specific timeframe, but I hope that it will be a few months at most before I have it out. There may be opportunities for reader involvement in checking and polishing it, so watch this space. ..

Cerberus is a lightweight and extensible data validation library for Python. Beta has been around since 2012. During this time Cerberus has been serving as the validation system for Eve core. It has been also adopted by a quite a lot open source projects, averaging around 18K downloads per month on PyPI and collecting some remarkable endorsements . All things considered, I would dare to claim that Cerberus is battle tested to death.....

With Java 8 now in the mainstream, Scala and Clojure are no longer the only choices to develop readable, functional code for big data technology on the JVM. In this post we see how SoundCloud is leveraging Apache Crunch and the new Crunch Lambda module to do the high-volume data processing tasks which are essential at early stages in our batch data pipeline efficiently, robustly and simply in Java 8.

Configuring Hubot to work with a self-hosted HipChat server took a bit of tweaking, so here’s a quickstart guide based on what I discovered along the way. First of all, follow Atlassian’s guide to create a copy of Hubot. This will download the source code including the HipChat adapter. $ npm install -g yo generator-hubot $ mkdir myhubot $ cd myhubot $ yo hubot --adapter hipchat Answer the questions, and you’ve got a basic bot conf..

If this look like the org. chart of the place you work at, you might want to consider thinking to go somewhere else. No organisation ever started to end up like this, but it usually happen when you do not ingrain a culture of learning into your people and your organisation. This happen when you put people who are just about the how, without understanding the why. The moment people stop caring where the company is going, and just care about..

In karate practice we train by performing a predefined sequences of actions, called “kata”. These include blocks, strikes, stances and jumps in a strictly defined sequence. Throughout the kata, every body part has an exact purpose. The legs do stances and kicks. The arms and forearms - blocks an punches. Even the smallest parts of the body have a part. The eyes need to look in the direction of the technique, the feet need to “grab” the fl....

When we face choice and say “Yes, I will do that. I am that kind of person,” we use our identity to justify our choice of action. The choice might not be the most convenient, but it matches our preconception of who we are. When we decide whether to make our bed in the morning, whether to drive above the speed limit, whether to drink coffee or take a nap when tired, our identity has a say in the decision. If we consider ourselves tidy, we’....
