DevOps Enterprise Summit London - Virtual is our first virtual event, and we’ve all been studying online events for months, trying to understand what makes the great ones great, and why the worst ones make you feel like you’re stuck on the worst, multiple-day video conference call ever.

I was around during the birth of the web in the early 1990s and have enjoyed every twist and turn since then. Even before creating my own personal website and blog (this site) in 1998, I maintained the Department of Science website at UW (originally http://sciborg.uwaterloo.ca ). And while I’ve enjoyed watching the evolution of the web, I still think the old web was more fun. In this blog post, I’ll tell you why. But first, let’s cover s..

My journey of becoming a ‘self-made man’ started the day I was born. Unlike many others, I wasn’t born with XY chromosomes but I’ve always felt ‘male’ inside. As a child when I began speaking, I started using male pronouns to identify myself. Because I was born female my family taught me to use female pronouns, which I refused to accept.

This year has been interesting, to say the least. What’s been particularly interesting this past month - or at least since the Memorial Day killing of George Floyd - is the sudden push on the American consciousness that Black Lives Matter .

Codename One itself never depended on JavaFX. This kept us small and performant. However, we need JavaFX to support HTML and media in the simulator and on the desktop ports. This was a choice we made easily back in the Java 8 days. JavaFX was integrated into the official JDK and this was an easy choice to make. Then Java 9 came out and everything broke. Most JVMs ship without JavaFX now and downloading it dynamically for the simulator is ..

At this point, there is no denying that film photography is enjoying a widespread revival. What I want to do in this article is to go through the costs associated with shooting film in 2020, and specifically in Canada. There are many YouTube videos and articles about film photography in Germany or in the United States but not much is said about Canada. If you live in Canada, you know that prices of goods can sometimes be significantly h....

Tonsky recently had a great post about 4K monitors, fonts and scaling. The magic in this article are his suggestions around how to set fonts on your OSX machine. Apparently Apple does not set the defaults correctly (and, I'm writing this on a brand new OSX box that is NOTABLY improved by following his directions). This is the kind of stuff that I'm going to need to refer back to hence this post. Discussion thread about this . How t..

This story will give you a glimpse of what it meant for me to grow up as a gay person in Germany, it will show you my personal struggle and pain that came with being gay and not fitting into what society, my parents, and religion were telling me. I’m sharing this intimate story so everybody who reads it might get some inspiration, some understanding, and something positive out of it.

OMFG (one-minute file generator) is a service that reads log lines from many Kinesis streams and saves them to S3, creating one compressed file every minute. Its first version was written long ago using Apache Storm , but it became expensive and sometimes unstable over time. Our target was to reduce the service cost significantly and create a 0-downtime infrastructure. We decided to completely replace the software using Baker, our in-h....

License: Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 _International Public License (CC BY-NC-ND _4.0) Notes are a great way to write things down. But as you start writing more notes, the number obviously keeps increasing. This leads to having a large number of notes which are outdated or forgotten. This is mainly because these are seperate notes and not connected with the other notes in anyway. So as humans, we forget....
