Hi there. I had mentioned that I would be solving AoC puzzles this year with ZigSelf. I plan to commit to it as much as possible, but no promises. :^) The first day of AoC has always been quite easy, and today is no exception, so this was rather simple.

Refactoring UI is one of the best things I've read this year in terms of stuff learned, I feel like I've become a way better designer after reading every chapter, the thing I like about it is that it focuses a lot on the little things that when used together makes an average website 10x better

You acquire a skill or experience through time and effort, then downplay the impact of writing and sharing the learning process. Professionals seem naturally to imagine a high bar for what is worth writing about. I think that's misguided. This article is not criticism of folks with these beliefs, but rather encouragement for folks looking for a reason to write. There are (at least) a few concrete reasons to write about what you've lea....

Have you ever really sat down and thought about Batman? I had a surplus of spare time on my hands recently, so I went back and played through Batman: Arkham City. When it originally came out, people consistently told me it was good, but I never got around to playing it because I just never cared about superhero comics or any other type of cape media. It’s a middling game - lot’s of time wasting minigames - but I’m not here to elaborate on t..

Masen’ka (or Mary) is Nabokov’s debut novel. It was written when he was in his twenties, living as an émigré in Berlin, just like the story’s protagonist. In the introduction of my Italian edition (Adelphi), the author admits that some life events poured into the narration. The depiction of Ganin’s life in a pension filled with fellow Russian ex-pats, and the relationships between them, is undoubtedly reminiscent of Nabokov’s own experience..

In the post about the importance of kernel density estimation bandwidth , I reviewed several bandwidth selectors and showed their impact on the KDE. The classic selectors like Scott’s rule of thumb or Silverman’s rule of thumb are designed for the normal distribution and perform purely in non-parametric cases. One of the most significant caveats is that they can mask multimodality. The same problem is also relevant to the biased cross-vali..

If you want to seem like the smartest person in the room, wait for a break in conversation, after sitting quiet for 15 minutes, and ask “What problem are we trying to solve here?” It works every time. We’ve all been there. You walk into a meeting, there are 10 people in it. It gets rolling, different folks chiming in. A few people seem to be taking personal notes, they always do. There is the person that scheduled the meeting, but they’....

One of the most classic use-cases for Kubernetes is Horizontal auto-scaling: the ability of your system to increase its resources automatically in reaction to higher demand by adding new machines. The need for auto-scaling is not just about reducing need to accurately project load and manual work of adjusting hardware. It can also be existential as in case of my team at Coolblue (Dutch web-shop present in Benelux and Germany) when the marke....

The ability to avoid temptation is a modern superpower. With temptation ubiquitous, avoiding it is essential in fighting procrastination; keeping finances healthy; managing diet and weight; boosting productivity; and maintaining healthy relationships. Avoiding temptation hard because before you are trapped – while you are becoming trapped – you still have self-control. The problem is that you feel like you have self-control right ....
