The code for this post can be found on my GitLab While the last two years have realized a number of risks that we had all left unmitigated for far too long, one even greater risk has yet to be realized: the risk of unscheduled time travel.

This means it’s much easier to use for automated deployments where these ID’s aren’t known and as new resources are deployed the existing workbook picks these u..

To be a netizen means to be part of the online social sphere. There's no way around it, to have a voice and participate people have to join a platform, which comes with its own limitations. The rules of the platforms are the rules of the information society but the platforms adapt more to fit us than we adapt to them. Anything happening on them is directly because of real people interacting together. People that have their own hopes, emoti..

Kernel density estimation (KDE) is a popular technique of data visualization. Based on the given sample, it allows estimating the probability density function (PDF) of the underlying distribution. Here is an example of KDE for x = {3.82, 4.61, 4.89, 4.91, 5.31, 5.6, 5.66, 7.00, 7.00, 7.00} (normal kernel, Sheather & Jones bandwidth selector): KDE is a simple and straightforward way to build a PDF, but it’s not always the bes....

Like many people I write to think. And, it helps. I set out with only inklings of an idea and by the time I am done, I usually have a coherent a complete thought. The writing contains it, but it doesn't communicate it. There's a difference between writing to think and writing to communicate and I finally understand that.

It is Super Bowl Sunday in the year 2022. Five people, dinner, an apartment on the east side of Manhattan. The retired physics professor and her husband and her former student waiting for the couple who will join them from what becomes a dramatic flight from Paris. The conversation ranges from a survey telescope in North-central Chile to a favorite brand of bourbon to Einstein’s 1912 Manuscript on the Special Theory of Relativity. Then some..

Mainframe computers, like the IBM one shown above, were the first digital computers that started appearing in big companies during the 1950s. They were room-sized behemoths of circuitry and steel primarily used to generate balance sheets and income statements. And while IBM still sells a small number of mainframe computers today, they only enjoyed mainstream popularity until the late 1980s. While early mainframes were only accessed by the..

A Bloom filter is a probabilistic data structure present in many common applications. Its purpose is answering the question: “is this item in the set?” very fast and not using a lot of space. The answers can be NO, or MAYBE YES. They work using hash functions, we learned about them some time ago. For example, one use case of Bloom filters is the following: you have a huge list of malicious URLs. In your browser, before a user navigat..

I’m graduating from college in May. Over my four years working towards my degree, I’ve taken about forty different courses. As I enter the last month of school, I thought it would be a good time to look back and reflect on the courses that I enjoyed the most. I’ve picked out five classes, and instead of trying to make any absolute ranking of them, I just decided to present them in the order they were taken, and try and express how each one ....
