My father’s name was Joe Basile. He was born in 1946 and passed away in 2014. Even though it’s been almost a decade now, I still miss him nearly every day. Since yesterday was Father’s Day, he’s been on my mind especially. So, I thought I’d take some time to write out some of my memories of him in no particular order. My dad wasn’t what you’d call a “computer guy,” but he had a genuine love for computers. He never learned how to type with..

This odd thing keeps happening to me where companies reach out to ask if I know of any Clojure developers they can hire instead of just hiring me. I understand why they do this. I am not interested in full-time position, after all. I think most people would bitterly look

I love computers. I love sitting in front of the large display. I love typing on the full-featured keyboard. I love having multiple windows on the screen and switching between them. I love dealing directly with files. Create them, delete them, and know where they are on my file system. I love to install whatever software I want and use it to process my files. On the other hand, there are smartphones. Don’t get me wrong; smartphones are co..

I just arrived last night to Japan, and I honestly think Japan might be my favorite country. I’ve been to Japan many times (I’m half-Japanese so used to come every year as a kid), but every time I come back I’m still blown away. Don’t get me wrong I’m not necessarily saying I would live … Continue reading Japan Might Be My Favorite Country

My MacOS Element Matrix client (Electron based) started getting errors when I searched. My Windows Matrix client worked just fine, so I was pretty sure it wasn’t a server issue. When I typed anything into the message search I’d get this error right underneath: “Message search initialisation failed, check your settings for more information” And … Continue reading Fixing Element Search

Linux is known for its flexibility and customizability, which is largely due to its file systems. While the ext4 file system is commonly used in Linux distributions, there are other options available that offer unique features and advantages. Two of the most notable alternatives are Btrfs and ZFS. In this article, we will explore these file systems and see what makes them stand out from the crowd.

I knew Zig supported some sort of reflection on types. But I had been confused about how to use it. What's the difference between @typeInfo and @TypeOf? I ignored this aspect of Zig until a problem came up at work where reflection made sense. The situation was parsing and storing parsed fields in a struct. Each field name that is parsed should match up to a struct field. This is a fairly common problem. So this post walks through how ....

Digit: Their names are both references to toes, continuing the theme of Nine-Toes’ name and the name of the gun he drops, The Clipper. While Nine-Toes does respawn during playthroughs, Pinky and Digit only spawn once per playthrough in the original version. In the enhanced version of Borderlands, they do respawn. These two spawn beside Nine-Toes in Mad Moxxi’s Underdome. Querulous adjective Given to complaining; peevish. Express..

But it’s getting those certificates “into production” that tends to be less easy. This is the easy way to get Let’s Encrypt TLS certificates into production with Hashicorp’s Nomad.
