I’ve previously written about Snappy and Unity 8’s Snappy Scope, back when I was first getting started on it. Since then, both the scope and Ubuntu Core itself have come a long way, so I thought it was time for an update and a quick demo. When I was working on Snappy back when I wrote the other post I was running Ubuntu Core virtually, since I was using my embedded devices for other tasks.

Even before I got tenure, folks have told me they’re “looking forward to an academic advice post on tenure.” From how to get a Ph.D. to monthly resolutions for grad students , I’ve found it easy to write academic posts on just about every topic. Except this one. I got tenure over a year ago, yet every time I tried to sum up my views on tenure, I froze. Every path to tenure is inherently unique and non-repeatable. How could I p....

Recently the very cool hard working developers working on Stripe released a post about how they modified their build/test pipeline to reduce their test suite runtime from 3 hours to about 3 minutes. The article is very much worth reading , as is the discussions that have come around it including those on Hacker News . A few key takeaways, For dynamic languages such as Ruby or Python consider forking to run tests in parallel

Gnat nightmares, spider sadness, moth madness, ant anxiety, bug barrage—ok I’ll stop now. I’m not a fan of bugs. Generally speaking, unless you’re an entomologist or earthy-crunchy type, you probably aren’t either. I’m not terrified of them by any means, I’m not liable to stop what I’m doing if a bug decides to drop by and say hey, but I’m still likely to exterminate them all with extreme prejudice before going to sleep. After all, nobody..

I've loved my Soundmagic PL30 in-ear headphones . They're relatively inexpensive, comfortable, and great for exercising (they stay in). Audio quality and bass have been good enough (I don't need much). Unfortunately, I've had two pairs of PL30's and both stopped working after a year or two. I'm replacing the last pair with RHA's MA750 (an upgrade, me hopes). Other contenders considered: Etymotic Research HF5 , and Shure SE215 . Also ..

Yesterday’s video described the GIL in Python — its history, current usage, and future. It would seem that Python is destined to have a GIL in the foreseeable future. However, the PyPy alternative implementation of Python was designed to be a sandbox for new ideas, and for trying new ways of doing things in Python. One such idea is to bring software transactional memory (STM) to Python, simultaneously providing for concurrency and safety...
