I'm now a few weeks into my Bending Emacs series. Today I share a new episode. Bending Emacs Episode 4: Batch renaming files In this video, I show a few ways of batch renaming files. The covered flows are: Dired editable buffers . Multiple cursors using region-bindings-mode to insert numbers via # (I had a tiny blog entry on this). We can batch rename using Keyboard Macros too and insert numbers via macro c....

I started my career in the fall of 1981, and in the first six months, I wrote a Jovial language source code formatter in Fortran. I had no prior experience in programming jobs or college programming classes; all I knew was what I had taught myself at home. That formatter

I used to really like programming. Making apps, solving problems, seeing something I wrote come alive on a phone. I could spend hours coding and still want more. That feeling is mostly gone now. Somewhere between the meetings, the processes, and the layers of “modern development” I stopped enjoying it. The early days I started programming professionally in 2012, doing Windows Phone 7 apps. It was a strange but exciting time.

I’ve been using pixi professionally in my team for a year now, and it has been a pleasure from the start. N.B. We’ve also been utilizing uv inside the pixi environment. Brief Intro uv : A faster & better pip. pixi : A faster and better pip+conda (bonus: beats mamba and works for other languages). Uses uv under-the-hood for pip installs. From the moment I (we) started using uv/pixi something clicked. It’s simple, fast and dev....

I’m just back from reading the transcript of Beyond the Machine , a thoughtful and insightful talk by Frank Chimero. I’m trying to figure out how to use generative AI as a designer without feeling like shit. I am fascinated with what it can do, impressed and repulsed by what it makes, and distrustful of its owners. I am deeply ambivalent about it all. The believers demand devotion, the critics demand abstinence, and to see AI as just a..

For a while now, I’ve been fascinated by Z3 and by SMT solving more broadly. While on pat leave recently, I was reminded of the existence of regular-expression crossword puzzles, and allowed myself to get nerdsniped by writing a Z3-backed solver. I expected to spend perhaps an afternoon cranking out a quick solver; I ended up getting sucked into understanding and debugging Z3 performance, and learning far more about Z3 and about SMT than I ..

Understanding how your data structures interact with hardware is one of the most powerful ways to improve application performance. This blogpost explores how CPU caches influence speed and how thoughtful struct design in Go can yield massive gains. Through a real-world case study, it shows how replacing a large embedded array with a slice improved performance by more than 40 times by reducing cache misses and improving data locality. Origin..

Some developers claim that MVVM is incompatible with SwiftUI. However, with a proper understanding of SwiftUI, it is possible to address any criticisms and eliminate the boilerplate code seen in many online blogs. In this article, we will explore some fundamental yet ignored SwiftUI features to understand how to replicate its integration with SwiftData inside ...

I have uploaded an early version of my Oracle hybrid histogram examination script that shows you the estimated row-count (cardinality) numbers when looking up a single value with a simple WHERE col = X condition from a table. You can pull the latest tpt-oracle repo or see it here: https://github.com/tanelpoder/tpt-oracle/blob/master/tabhisthybrid.sql When troubleshooting optimizer’s row-count estimates on tables with histograms, I s..

Around this time last year I came to Uppsala with a friend to check out Rosendal Day - a day organized by the neighborhood I had just bought an apartment in. On the walk to Rosendal from the station I realized it was also the day of the 2024 Uppsala (full and half) Marathon, the runners and spectators gathered on the route through the middle of the city.

Polyhedral optimization is a tool used in compilers for optimizing loop nests. While the major compilers that use this implement polyhedral optimizations from scratch,1 there is a generally-applicable open source C library called the Integer Set Library (ISL) that implements the core algorithms used in polyhedral optimization. This article gives an overview of a subset of ISL, mainly focusing on the representation of sets and relations and ..
