Not too long ago I got into building a metrics dashboard for our resources in Azure. Specifically, we’re running our applications in Azure Kubernetes Services and want to have a dashboard to track how everything is doing. Since we already have our logs emitted to Azure Log Analytics we could use that to build our metrics. Writing the queries to fetch our data from Log Analytics is rather straight forward.

Jacob Kaplan-Moss’s hot take on software quality: Software quality is more the result of a system designed to produce quality, and not so much the result of individual performance . That is: a group of mediocre programmers working with a structure designed to produce quality will produce better software than a group of fantastic programmers working in a system designed with other goals. This leads to the insightful conclusion: I..

The following is a list of curiosities I’ve found while crawling the internet looking for websites. A sort of greatest hits from my search engine. There is no real system or theme to the links, other than the fact that they have made me go “huh, that’s neat” while visiting them. Most of these are effectively impossible to find on Google, since they don’t use HTTPS, and aren’t optimized for mobile, and aren’t plastered in ads and trackin..

A few weeks ago I had the chance to delete 1 petabyte of data spread across 1 billion objects from S3. Well, actually 940 million, but close enough to the click-baitable 1 billion. I thought it would be interesting challenge to try and visualize the execution of these deletions and possibly gain som...

This blog post is about benchmarking Caddy against Nginx and their respective performance metrics as reverse proxies. Be forewarned: I was very thorough and there are tons of graphs and tables in here. I didn't want to make any mistakes! Nobody is allowed to make mistakes on the Internet. You can proceed to the results if you want to, but you'll hurt my vain writer's feelings if you skip past the methodology. I swear I won't use the ....

In recent years there’s this image that will make the rounds with a ranking of programming languages by energy efficiency. If you haven’t seen it, it looks like this. I want to be careful here because I’m not a researcher. I don’t design studies and I don’t know how to design studies or anything about the environment folks will typically design studies in. This is intended as a critique of the methodology not a canceling of the research — i..

microdata and rdfa both directly mark up existing html content. Only on a syntactical level. Beyond that, it’s the other way around: Microdata and RDFa let you build RDF triples by taking content from HTML elements. They don’t exist to add information to HTML elements. HTML and Microdata/RDFa syntaxes being mixed into the same document doesn’t change this. They’re only combined so human- and machine-readable data can remain identi....

I noticed that the Comparison of ways to use vocabulary in content page on the personalization-semantics wiki didn’t mention Microformats. Microformats add semantic meaning to individual HTML elements; this is in contrast to document-level semantic formats like Microdata, RDFa, and JSON-LD. There’s a 1-1 mapping between many microformats and values in the WAI-Adapt Content Module . Several values under section 4.3.4 (values for “purpos....

I don’t think the book/year metric is very useful. A few years ago, I tried to read one book per week. It’s totally manageable if you read modern fluffy self-help books or short novels. After a few months, I realized that my desire to read one book per week was keeping me from reading the books I wanted to read because I was always choosing short, and easy books. I never started on larger, more difficult books because there’s absolutely n..

Last weekend I went on a motorcycle trip with my club . Our goal was to visit the beautiful Dolomites in the Italian Alps 1 . We had twenty motorcycles on the road, evenly split between modern classics (Bonnevillles in all their variations) and adventure bikes (Tigers new and old). A great turnout considering that the weather forecast for the weekend wasn’t exactly great. Of all the TOMCC members who registered, only two were missing bec..

When we work with weighted samples, it’s essential to introduce adjustments for the sample size. Indeed, let’s consider two following weighted samples: $$ \mathbf{x}_1 = \{ x_1, x_2, \ldots, x_n \}, \quad \mathbf{w}_1 = \{ w_1, w_2, \ldots, w_n \}, $$$$ \mathbf{x}_2 = \{ x_1, x_2, \ldots, x_n, x_{n+1} \}, \quad \mathbf{w}_2 = \{ w_1, w_2, \ldots, w_n, 0 \}. $$ Since the weight of $x_{n+1}$ in the second sample is zero, it’s natural to expe..
