Hi, Unsere Intuition spielt uns häufig einen Streich. Vor allem in der Statistik. Wir Menschen sind nicht dafür gemacht statistische Zusammenhänge intuitiv zu verstehen. Zum Beispiel das Geburtstagsparadxon . Was glaubst du. Wie hoch ist die Wahrscheinlichkeit, dass in einem Raum mit 23 Menschen zwei am gleichen Tag Geburtstag haben? 5%? 10%? 20%? … Falsch. Die Wahrscheinlichkeit liegt bei 50% . Wenn du dir zwei Schulkl..

The PS2 homebrew scene is an absolute mess, and whenever I try to find any information on any operation about it online, I find the following: A truckload of conflicting information A myriad of different guides spanning back 20 years A bushel of different software tools, none of which are usually available on Linux And a partridge in a pear tree This time, all I needed to do was to figure out how to get my ISO and BIN/CUE PS2 backups on....

Measuring the length of time that a particular piece of code takes is a surprising challenging task. There are two aspects to this, the first is how do you ensure that the cost of getting the start and end times won’t interfere with the work you are doing. The second is how to actually get the time (potentially many times a second) in as efficient way as possible. To give some context, Andrey Akinshin does a great overview of how the ....

I just tried Chromium’s “Screen2x” article distiller (experimental in chrome://flags). Before, the DOM Distiller removed elements far too aggressively. The new Screen2x implementation has gone in the opposite direction: it barely removes any of the page’s non-navigation structure. It does, however, remove all the images. figure elements that aren’t images (e.g. block-quotes with citations in figcaption children, or code snippets with desc....

Another lazy post for today. Brennan from Dimension 20 is teaching me so many new things! In many animals—like dogs, cats, birds, etc.— what we think of as the “knees” are actually the ankles! These animals have digitigrade locomation. That means they walk around on their toes as opposed to the flat parts of their feet (metatarsals) plus their toes (like humans, which is known as plantigrade locomation). That means your cat is literally tip..

I have been working on a hobby project to reimagine the C core of Emacs in Rust. On this journey, I reached the point where I needed some way to represent the text of a buffer. The simplest approach is to just use a large string or array of lines. However these each suffer from poor performance as either the size or line length of text increases. GNU Emacs has famously used a gap buffer to represent editable text.

I don't have to write this post, and at the end, I will tell you why. Why am I writing it even though I don't have to? Because I told myself if I saw another post about leadership that didn't address this topic that I was going to freak out, and that is one reason to own a blog; to give you a place to freak out. The thrust of my argument is the following. If you are asking someone to be a leader, you should reward them for it. I see....

As seen in a previous tutorial, creating a serverless function for AWS Lambda with Java and MongoDB isn't too complicated of a task. In fact, you can get it done with around 35 lines of code! However,... The post Serverless Development with Kotlin, AWS Lambda, and MongoDB Atlas appeared first on MongoDB .

It was the spring of 2014, over 9 years ago, just 6 months into my first year of college, when my Computer Architecture teacher stopped in the middle of an assembly exercise to tell us that Bitdefender is hiring juniors for Malware Researcher positions. I had no idea what that is, but boy, did it sound cool?… I fondly remember how at that time we weren’t chasing high salaries and filtering jobs by programming languages and frameworks.....

Recently, I started writing about defensive statistics . The methodology allows having parametric assumptions, but it adjusts statistical methods so that they continue working even in the case of huge deviations from the declared assumptions. This idea sounds quite similar to nonparametric and robust statistics. In this post, I briefly explain the difference between different statistical methodologies.

Denis Villeneuve, expert of visual storytelling, frequently employs the panning shot with an extensive use of the parallax effect to immerse viewers in his films, allowing them to experience a sense of place, scale, and depth like never before. He uses these teqniques most visibly in “Blade Runner 2049” (2017), “Enemy” (2013), and “Dune” (2021), highlighting how his use of the panning shot and parallax effect enhances the audience’s immersi....

Suppose we’ve got a service. We’ll gloss over the details for now, but let’s stipulate that it accepts requests from the outside world, and takes some action in response. Maybe those requests are HTTP requests, or RPCs, or just incoming packets to be routed at the network layer. We can get more specific later. What can we say about its performance? All we know is that it receives requests, and that it acts on them.

Dear new developer, Over the last twenty years, I’ve had two work modes. I’ve either been at a company for a number of years (3, 8, 2, and 3) or been a contractor/consultant working for clients for weeks or months. Both modes have upsides; I wrote before about the benefits of a small consulting company. … Continue reading The Benefits of Sticking Around →

After almost a decade of running my current desktop, I’ve hit the point where I ought to cut my losses and start with a fresh build for my needs rather than attempt upgrading. And with a prospective part list and a new build on the horizon, the bittersweet task of backing up files 1 and choosing what I want to carry on to a new computer rears its head once again. Normally it’s fun, akin to a deep spring clean without the risk of backac....
