I don't claim to be an expert when it comes to Python. At best I'm an apprentice striving to be a journey man. One of the interesting tools in the Python / Data Science ecosystem is the Jupyter Notebook which gives a cell based representation of code, visualizations, documentation and execution flow and allows you to package things up for distribution i.e. hand your work, in a complete fashion, from say Data Scientist 1 ("Rebekah") to Dat....

I had an abysmal day yesterday coding on my side project. Ok – coding on one of my side projects. I had one of those days where you try to do something simple and NOTHING, NOT ONE DAMN THING, WORKS. Note : Every software engineer knows this type of day. They aren't days that you talk about with anyone in your life because you spend hours failing at something that you know is so damn simple that, if you can't make it work, you should h....

Taken November 20, 2019 which is significant only because that is my birthday I'm writing this blog post because my Facebook feed just flashed by at me "Today is Kevin Werbach's Birthday" and that made me remember . Kevin Werbach is a technology analyst and professor at the Wharton School and someone who is far more important to my life than I ever was to him. This blog post is a tribute to him because he, through a random act of k....

Andrew Zaleski digs into the factors contributing to the RV market’s notorious lack of quality. I thought a lot about getting an RV instead of my first house, but this pushed me away from buying an RV then and ensured that when I do decide to go that route, I will build it myself . Permalink.

In 2019, I had a few mindset shifts around recurring, daily or near-daily work. In short: Frequency first. Duration next. Then, quality. Make progress every day. Any progress counts, duration + quality should go unmeasured. Old goal: Run a marathon in 2019. New goal: Run every day. Old goal: Write 1000 words every day. New goal: Write every day. Yikes. In the past, I was very focused on big-picture goals which had very specifi....

Updated : 5/5/2020 It is the second day of the New Year – welcome to 2020 – and I have still failed to launch my side project that I started midway through 2019. Sigh. I find myself fundamentally regretting this but, well, life: New Job Wife in Hospital Son and Schooling Issues Etc So my New Year's Resolution(s) is: Launch by end of Q1, 2020 Not have deployment eat my brain Launch with Something that I'm Visually Proud Of Launch w....

Lists of Top X or Best Y can very widely from person to person, but being the winner of the 1994 Nintendo Championship (PowerFest 94) in the 18+ category should give some klout right?!

This post is about my Adblock setup with an (overkill) RaspberryPI 4 and Pi-Hole, and since the pics tell the story more than words, so first pics, then words/specs/code. Nothing special, but since I like the tech things that looking nice I tried to make the setup a bit nicer but it works also without the stand/display/etc… The Raspberry PI is a 4B 1.2 with 4Gb RAM, absolutely not needed for run Pi-Hole but I prefer to have it for ot..

Judging by my prolonged absence from posting new content, it could safely be assumed that I've spent the last two years encased in block of carbonite. If that idea doesn't resonate with you, you might simply assume that life got busy. While one of those options is statistically more likely than the other, neither will take home any points for correctness. The truth of the matter is that I've avoided posting new content because posting new c..

I spent enough time Internet-less this holiday season that I had a chance to catch up on a few administrative tasks. One of those involved updating Keeping Up with Current Events and My Evening Reads to reflect new sites, feeds, and newsletters I now follow, as well as those I no longer read. I work hard to educate myself and stay informed, and I encourage you to check those posts out as a great starting point to doing the same for ..

Since Layabout launched last year it has been downloaded 5,755 times, gotten 16 stars on GitHub, been used by a Portuguese startup to teach a Haskell workshop , and received a Twitter shout-out from @roach , one of the core contributors to the official Python Slack client . During that time the official client library also got a lot better! So much better, in fact, that I've decided to deprecate Layabout.

It is interesting that my first post of 2020 is actually a CSS trick. That's quite an evolution in my web development practices from 2019. Here is a CSS addition that limits the max height of your trix editor window and makes it resizable: .trix-content { max-height : 800px !important ; #set whatever height you want overflow-y : auto ; } Trix Editor Resources https://trix-editor.org/ Go Rails H..

Jeff Huang, echoing a point I made in Own Your Platform , in his piece on the importance of building websites that stand the test of time: “I’ve recommended my students to push websites to Heroku, and publish portfolios on Wix. Yet every platform with irreplaceable content dies off some day. Geocities, LiveJournal, what.cd, now Yahoo Groups. One day, Medium, Twitter, and even hosting services like GitHub Pages will be plundered then ....
