Figure 1: The systemd wars of the tenties were harsh and casualties were many The year is 2013 and I am hopping mad . systemd is replacing my plaintext logs with a binary format and pumping steroids into init and it is laughing at me. The unix philosophy cries out: is this the end of Linux (or, as many are calling it, GNU plus Linux)? The year is 2025 and I’m here to repent. Not only is systemd a worthy successor to tradit....

A little while ago, we published a blog post on CHAOS: Yelp’s Unified Framework for Server-Driven UI. We strongly recommend reading that post first to gain a solid understanding of SDUI and the goals of CHAOS. This post builds on those concepts to delve into the inner workings of the CHAOS backend and how it generates server-driven content. To briefly recap, CHAOS is a server-driven UI framework used at Yelp. When a client wants to display ..

I have never seen security and privacy comparison tables (henceforth referred to simply as “checklists” for brevity) used for any other purpose but deception. After pondering this observation, I’m left seriously doubting if these checklists have any valid use case except to manipulate the unsuspecting. Please keep in mind that I’m talking about something very […]

In the dining room there is an old (2013) 1080p telly with an old (2020) Android TV box connected to it. The TV box contains an ancient Amlogic S905X3 SoC inside. It has just enough power to play Youtube & 1080p movies from a network drive but not much else. Some time ago I heard about repurposing this particular model (Vontar X3) as a retro-gaming console, but anticipating battles similar to those with openwrt-on-outers--where 2 device....

One of the best things about LLMs is that the cost of writing bash or zsh has gone to 0. Here's a way to get started on a new Mac by setting up uv then using it to drive a bunch of macOS automation: #!/usr/bin/env zsh set -euo pipefail # 0. Install uv if missing if ! command -v uv > /dev/null ; then echo " → Installing uv… " curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh export PATH =....

The mystery In the previous article, I briefly mentioned a slight difference between the ESP-Prog and the reproduced circuit, when it comes to EN: Focusing on EN, it looks like the voltage level goes back to 3.3V much faster on the ESP-Prog than on the breadboard circuit. The grid is horizontally spaced at 2ms, so […] The post Transistors in reverse and redundant circuits appeared first on Quentin Santos .

One morning, my son woke up and came downstairs, deep in thought. He looked up at me and said, “Can we make a game, Mummy?” He’s seven and he’s called Jacob. He told me his game was called Exploding Kitties. He described the mechanics. Bad guys patrol up and down. If they see the player - a kitty - they laser them with their eyes and the kitty explodes. If the kitty can sneak behind a bad guy, it can scratch and kill him. I had a little....

When you join Microsoft, you hear stories about people who’ve been there for 20 years, who grew up with the company, who never had to worry about sudden changes (maybe except for 2008). The performance management system had its quirks, but there was an understanding that if you did solid work, you’d have a place. But something shifted. Maybe it was the market, maybe it was the pressure to stay competitive with companies that move faster and..

This post is part of the GenAI Series. These days, if you ask a tech-savvy person whether they know how to use ChatGPT, they might take it as an insult. After all, using GPT seems as simple as asking anything and getting a magical answer instantly. But here’s the thing. There’s a big difference between using ChatGPT and using it well. Most people stick to casual queries; they ask something and ChatGPT answers. Either they will be happy or s....

Apple macOS is a UNIX™. It's the best-selling commercial Unix of all time. I wonder if how many old-school Unix folks consider all Mac users in the 21st century to be their brothers-in-arms? Not many, I'd guess. When it happened, many Unix folks don't consider it a _real_ Unix. Even thought just a few years later, and AIUI after spending a _lot_ on the exercise, Apple got the UNIX™ branding. Now, by contrast: I've spent proper t....
