Warning: Contains spoilers for the season 6, episode 5 “Tethics” of the show Silicon Valley which aired in 2019. In “Tethics”, two managers of Pied Piper, Gilfoyle and Monica, are threatened by HR due to their low employee engagement scores — there’s a consensus among the employees that the two managers are jerks. They both promise to raise their scores, but stupidly promise to raise the scores from “hate” to “love” within a week. Faced....

This is another post in ScrapeTheFamous, in which I will be parsing some famous websites and will discuss my development process. The posts will be using Scraper API for parsing purposes which makes me free from all worries about blocking and rendering dynamic sites since Scraper API takes care of everything. So this post is about scraping Google search results, the script will accept a keyword and would return results across multiple pages....

One of the biggest worries that IT users have regarding Apple’s new ARM-based M1 platform is the ability to run virtual machines (VMs) of other operating systems using hypervisor software. And while it’s possible to run virtual machines of both Windows and Linux operating systems made for the Intel platform on the M1, the performance cost of translating Intel instructions to ARM is high (even with the optimizations Apple has within thei..

He who has learned to disagree without being disagreeable has discovered the most valuable secret of negotiation. Chris Voss, Never Split the Difference This is the fourth post in a series. You can find the last three here: 1 , 2 , 3 . There we set the basics of opting out of negative games, and now we can start diving into examples. A classic example of a negative game is the adversarial distribution of limited resources....

This whole project started when I happened across the NASA Perseverance Raw Image Library one day. Something about the constantly varying combination of images: some with scientific purposes, some for navigation, and some of the rover itself, along with the fact that they were FROM MARS kept me coming back to the page to see what Curiosity had been up to lately. This eventually lead to the idea of having a digital picture frame which wo..

I spent the last few days migrating our ASP.NET REST services, MVC web applications and Blazor server apps to .NET 6. Overall the process was pretty straightforward. The few issues I went through were easy to solve and well documented. Things got more involved with the EF Core 6 transition, especially with the Npgsql Entity Framework Core Provider. The official ASP.NET Core 5.0 to 6.0 migration guide was my first stop. It offers the per..

A fool has sought out the book’s greatest scientist, and asked to share his knowledge. The scientist has gone to the beginning of the book to try to understand its origin better. F: Is it true, as they say, that you only know truths? S: Almost only truths, or most things I know are true, or at least more true than I thought yesterday. I can prove it by the scientific method. We in science have studied everything from paragraph breaks to..

Keeping Secrets Secret in Python Based on an article by originally published by Jason Goldberger but unfortunately the original is not online anymore so I have rewritten a short version, since this is something I have been looking for a while. Fernet has one classmethod called generate_key() and two instance methods encrypt(plaintext_binary) and decrypt(cipher_binary). Step 1 : Generate a key Generate a key and save it to the OS’s environme..

I have three different text editors, that I use for three distinct use cases. I’m a software developer, so I basically edit text files for a living, and the editing software that I use for this is fairly important to me. Projects For any substantial editing, either for work, or for personal projects, I currently use Visual Studio Code - generally known as “vscode”. It’s good enough: it’s extremely actively developed, so always up to ....

tl;dr I recommend every developer turn off automatic garbage collection in git. It's one of the first things I do setting up a new machine - and you should do so too. For a happier life, go to your terminal right now and run: $ git config --global gc.auto 0 I promise you won't regret it. The full story Turn off garbage collection? Surely, I must be crazy, right? Automatic garbage collection is important, right? They wouldn't turn i....

This is me writing down my discussion with someone from work regarding for loop vs list comprehension in Python. During a code review, I was commenting on a chunk of code to change from for loop to a list comprehension. We also talked about why I wanted it that way. One reason is list comprehension could be (arguably) more readable than a for loop. For a simple loop, that might be the case. Another reason is list comprehension is faste..
