Intro I've been writing this post as I go, and you may still see changes if you check back from time to time. This post is for writing about things I'm figuring out, and for keeping notes on what I want to figure out next, as I get ramped up on Common Lisp. When I'm done there will hopefully be stuff here other people can use. There's a lot to love and admire about Common Lisp, but the language has some pointy bits that ....

Tesla's Autopilot found partly to blame for 2018 crash on the 405

The fact that anyone finds this surprising is mind boggling . The fact that anyone would use this as evidence that Tesla’s Autopilot system is somehow unsafe blows my mind. The authors cited two accidents involving Tesla’s Autopilot system, meanwhile I pass an accident caused by an inattentive driver about once a month on my three mile drive from work back to my house. We would be lucky to have such an “unsafe” system driving our cars. ..

Ever since I discovered it, I've preferred tshark as a means of extracting information and stats from a packet capture, particularly when that information needs to be communicated onwards via email - it's far better to provide simple tabulated data than 40 odd screenshots trying to highlight what you mean. TShark uses the same underlying libraries as Wireshark, so you get the benefit of it's dissectors allowing you to easily filter by tra....

At over 16,000 words, Tim Urban has some good advice for choosing a career . Back in college, I used to shake my head at all the lost students around me. One of my friends said it was unrealistic to expect kids, fresh out of high school, to know what they wanted to do for the rest of their lives. I argued that eighteen years was plenty of time to figure that out, because it’s not that hard: Start with things you like, narrow your scope....

So you’re making a change to the provider to add a feature, it’s going great and your ready to test it out…. but then you realize things get a bit ropey… ideally you want a visual debugger to step through the code. Well here is how to set that up in VSCode. First make sure you have VSCode setup for golang debugging (delve configured etc). Then it’s easy, say you want to debug a new provider you’ve written and it has a test called TestAc..

Patrick George over at Jalopnik posted a picture of a Toyota BXD20 the other day, and I had to check it out. Kinja had a nice article about the vehicle . I would not say no to a BXD, but given the chance to build on a platform like this, I would just go with a similar AM General Humvee. AM General has built almost 10,000 per year since 1984 for militaries around the world, which has proven the vehicle’s reliability and made it readily av..

In an electric car, the (enormous) battery is a major part of the price. If electric car prices are decreasing , battery costs must be decreasing, because it’s not like the cost of fabricating rubber, aluminum, glass, and steel into car shapes can decline that much,

You don’t know what you got until it’s gone. And unfortunately it’s the same with data. The importance of backup is mostly realised after loosing the data. After a few data incidents, I have made backups of all my ElasticSearch clusters. I have also made it a habit to create backups and then go ahead with using ES cluster to store data. In this article I will be using Google Cloud Storage (GCS) buckets for backup.

Šokujúce vyjadrenia experta: Liečba rakoviny je na vysokej úrovni, ale často liečime predražene, zbytočne a pacientovi škodíme

Pravda je taká, že sú omnoho lepšie spôsoby ako využiť peniaze, ako ich míňať na neprimeraný výskum ‚liečby‘ rakoviny, tvrdí popredný medicínsky expert. Prečo takéto reči? Diskusia o “liečbe” rakoviny sa po tom, ako vedci oznámili, že našli achilovú pätu rakoviny, stala stredobodom správ. Tak, ako aj mnohé iné predošlé liečby, aj tieto nové poznatky […]

Last week I attended the Open Source Firmware Conference . It was amazing! The talks, people, and overall feel of the conference really left me feeling inspired and lucky to attend. Having been pushed to attend vendor conferences and trade shows through my career for various jobs, it was so refreshing to have the chance to hang out with folks from such a genuine community that really just want to help one another. When the talks hit Yo....

I recently read “The race for an artificial general intelligence: implications for public policy” at work. I don’t want to pick on this paper in particular, but there’s only so many times I can read sentences such as: “the problem with a race for an AGI is that it may result in a poor-quality AGI that does not take the welfare of humanity into consideration” before I can’t take it any more. This is just the paper that tipped me over....

What a cool idea from TJ Holowaychuk. For a while before I re-released First Crack , my static blog engine, I used a custom Node.js frontend to serve my site. I ended up overhauling the project to build a static website instead, but I could have just used this neat trick instead. Permalink.

I finally felt compelled to write this after reading a little tidbit from a blog posted on Hacker News containing this perennial piece of techno FUD One of the downsides with JWTs is that banning users or adding/removing roles is a little harder if you need the action to be immediate. … Since the token is stored client side, there is no way to directly invalidate the token even if you mark the user as disabled in your database.

Here is a simple yet useful trick to access web interface within your cluster. As stated in the Kubernetes documentation you can use kubectl proxy. I’ve seen a lot of people using the proxy to access the dashboard but you can use it to access any web interfaces, without the need to create an ingress and protect it, especially useful in dev environment. http://kubernetes_master_address/api/v1/namespaces/namespace_name/services/service_name[:..

You should never put a management controller like an iLOM onto the open internet, they're not designed for that level of exposure and are near guaranteed to be compromised. To allow remote access, use either a VPN, or tunnel via a jumpbox. If possible, it's far simpler and easier to use SShuttle to tunnel out to an iLO via your jumpbox instead. If, for whatever reason that isn't is possible, then it's possible to set up a straight S..

Indickí predkovia vedeli o prínosoch jógy pred viac ako 5000 rokmi. Moderní ľudia, konvenčná medicína a predovšetkým skeptici majú potrebu mať, aj čo sa týka jógy, vedecké dôkazy.

It’s been a LONG road to 2.0. Old Socii was busted and didn’t feel good to use. Even I didn’t want to use it so changes had to be made. New Socii is super pleasant to use and I’m happy again. What follows is a deep-dive into the history of the architecture and why I made the changes I made.
