It's interesting for me to reflect on how my aspirations have changed as I've grown up. When I was a little kid I wanted to be a computer programmer like my daddy. I wanted to have my own cubicle and a work station and write Perl programs all day long in Emacs. There was a phase where I had to shake my head at that—a cubicle-dweller? Seriously? After experiencing some open-office work spaces, the shoulder-high walls afforded a privacy an....

I recently came across two different websites that allow you to look at the world through photos in two completely different ways. The first site is called ChronoPhoto . It displays a photograph and you have to guess when it was taken - the closer to the correct year the more points you get. You get five photos to identify.

I was reading iA’s grumpy writing about GPT (with which I sympathize) when my attention was captured by the image they added to their post. It was so fascinating that I had to research it. As it turns out, this is the Flammarion engraving , a famous wood engraving by an unknown artist, so named because its first documented appearance is in Camille Flammarion’s 1888 book L’atmosphère: météorologie populaire (“The Atmosphere: Popula..

So uh, we used to have the problem we want to be able to share our shopping list in real time with other people, living in a flatshare, but uh, the only tool we had for that was CryptPad, as that was something we already hosted, however, it's uh, pretty inconvenient for this; it loads slowly and isn't really designed for creating lists easily. Using it on mobile is kind of a pain. Fortunately, our girlfriend Anna Aurora (check out her sit....

I did a bit of experimenting over the weekend in an attempt to figure out how to write an interface that abstracted over methods whose return type was identical to the receiver’s type. This is frequently a thing that one wants to do when abstracting over self-cloning objects, or things that implement the Builder pattern . For example, suppose we have a struct through which we log stuff: type StdoutLogger struct { out iout....

Kicking Nextcloud Cron Script from TrueNAS Cron Job Tl;DR I’m running TrueCharts Nextcloud in my TrueNAS SCALE at home. After the setup, I discovered that none of the cron jobs was running. I’m using the Nextcloud News App and never saw any new stories. I didn’t find a way to make the Nextcloud cron work, so I decided to have a cron job that runs every hour to kick the Nextclodu cron job in the Nextcloud docker container.

Back in 2017 the world of traditional websites was still dominated by monolithic traditional CMSes - The likes of WordPress, Drupal, Umbraco, WooCommerce, etc - This is the story of how gatsby.js became the love of my life and ultimately how it ended breaking my heart.

Your big feature is tested and ready to go! Time to merge, and then… Nooooo! 😭 Memories arise of hours of uncertainty spent trying to resolve past conflicts. Sure, there are lots of UIs that make picking one side or the other easier than using the command line, but is picking sides really the right answer? I’ll share a hidden gem that, for me, has turned conflict resolution from frustration into something of a joy. Git has a built-in....

Some notes on earphones related to the last post : The aforementioned noise-canceling earbuds are Sony WF-1000XM4. They're really good at noise-canceling, obviously, and the ambient sound mode actually amplifies the outside since the isolation is pretty strong on its own. I got mine bundled with my phone (Xperia 5 IV), which you can see also suffers Sony's inability to name products with anything more meaningful than a glorified serial n..

I recently got some new noise-canceling earbuds, and they are terrifyingly effective. Although I have thoughts on sound quality, technology, whatever, this post is not about that. It's about how when I walk down the street and tap my left earbud, it only takes seconds to eject me from this world. A polite robot announces, Noise canceling . A light swell of static obscures outside sounds. But as the static fades, the noise of the world do....

Imagine you work with some data and assume that the underlying distribution is approximately normal. In such cases, the data analysis typically involves non-robust statistics like the mean and the standard deviation. While these metrics are highly efficient under normality, they make the analysis procedure fragile: a single extreme value can corrupt all the results. You may not expect any significant outliers, but you can never be 100% sure..

Introduction Go interfaces are beneficial to Go developers because they: Allow interfaces to separate mechanism from behavior. Increase flexibility of function parameters. Enable mocking of function parameters. With the addition of generics in Go 1.18, interfaces can be used to constrain the types of values a generic function will accept. To dive deeper into Go interfaces, we invite you to join Miki in his latest series dedicated to Go..

When you first create a status page, it’s probably because you want to communicate outages to your customers. The faster you can share details about an outage, the sooner your customers know what’s going on, and the more effectively they can handle the outage. Communicating promptly – in clear language – builds trust. And as a young company with a customer centric focus, that’s your top priority. So why is it that as an industry, we no ....
