Yesterday I added tests to server deployment in my deployServer.sh script: echo "Running tests" cd ../../server/lib set -e echo "mode: set" > allcoverage.out for d in $(go list ./... | grep -v vendor); do parentdir=`dirname "$d"` subdir=`basename "$d"` echo "subdir: " $subdir if [[ $subdir == "tests" ]]; then go test -cover -coverpkg=$parentdir -coverprofile=profile.out $d else go test -cover -coverprofile=profile.out $d fi if [ -..


Here is the scenario, I wanted to use a container to run a linux app in Azure and I need to persist changes to the filesystem via Azure Files. This, initially, appears to be nice and simple - you mount the Azure File share using CIFS and then pass this into docker as a volume mount. But what if you app relies on some linux specific operations some, like symlinks, can be emulated see here for details , but others can’t.

Hello everybody 🔗For as long as I can remember, my family and friends have been telling me “Your theories are ridiculous, and wrong”. So I decided to share them more broadly.



Logos and artworks in the Unix world, where do those come from. We'll try to analyse a bunch of popular Unix mascots and logos. Throughout my research I could distinct two groups of mascots and logos. Even though it's not fun to have a binomial vision of the world, black and white, but this is what I found and this is mostly what it is.

Recently, my organization reached a big goal and we decided to celebrate by taking everyone out for dinner. What happened was a GDPR nightmare. Or was it? We sent out a Google Form with three simple questions: 1. What’s your name, 2. Are you coming to the dinner? 3. Do you have any dietary constraints? But wait! According to article 4 of the GDPR, “‘personal data’ means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural p..

I am someone who spends large portions of their time working in weakly typed languages. Namely, PHP and JavaScript. I argue that static analysis is a must-have when working with any weakly typed language. It is nearly impossible to make reliable code without it. Static analysis makes up for the missing type system and allows you to scale. I recently got in an argument with another developer over static analysis. It's been an ongoing ....

Earlier today I ran into a problem posed as an interview question. At a glance it seems simple, but it's an open ended question. Like any good assessment, it leaves room for programmers to express different solutions and degrees of aptitude. The problem went a bit like this: Write a function that efficiently takes an array of integers and returns the sum of the two largest integers in the array. The array can be made up of any valid i....

Lua is an awesome language, but it has some annoying features that have caused endless frustration for me.

'Born a Crime' by Trevor Noah is a hilarious and thought-provoking memoir about his childhood in South Africa.

Most people would rather be certain they’re miserable, than risk being happy. (R. Anthony) Certainty is cool. We love when we can feel confident. It makes our world emotionaly safer.  Also – we hate it when we have to issue a correction about a statement we made that turned out wrong.  Certainty is a certain form of safety.  Complexity leads to mistakes – which leads to lack of certainty…

Were you busy today? Did you forget that Ubuntu 17.10 was released today (no way)? Perhaps you agree that Thursdays are lame for a party anyway? Walla Walla University’s ACM club is having their kick-off event, a joint retro video game and Ubuntu 17.10 release party, on Sunday, October 22nd from 3pm to 5pm! This event will be taking place in room 348 of Kretschmar Hall on the Walla Walla University campus in Walla Walla, WA.


Developers running their apps on tsuru can choose plans based on memory and cpu usage. We were looking at adding I/O usage as one of the plan’s features, so one could choose how many I/O operations per second or bytes per second a container may be able to read/write. Being able to limit I/O is particulary important when running a diverse cloud, where applications with different workloads and needs are running together sharing multiple r..


As you may have noticed, we recently re-licensed mgmt from the AGPL ( Affero General Public License) to the regular GPL . This is a post explaining the decision and which hopefully includes some insights at the intersection of technology and legal issues.

So a few weeks back I received an interesting email that at first thought looked like a scam. In short I was being invited to a BBQ at the Consul General’s residence in Sydney to meet an ICT/start up delegation from the Netherlands. Let me straight up say I have no idea why I would receive something like this. I am not dutch, have no dutch ancestry (that I am aware of) and while searchcode.com somehow is listed on the top startups in S..



Discover the truth about the Crusades and why invoking them today is misguided, in this well-researched and engaging book.

Right, so this is probably not for everyone – but I just wanted to share.  Vim plugin – not this time Before you just say – “hey there is a plugin for that” – (If you don’t know, Vim as a bunch of plugin and I would advise you check VimAwesome to get an idea of how many things you can do with this tiny piece of software.) So obviously among all the plugins, there are a few dedicated to manage your WordPress blog directly in VIM.

Mira Hirtz has a good write-up on how abstractions and representations of things become the things they meant to represent . With regards to representations, one phenomenon that I particularly like is what I call interference . It happens when something, through its idiosyncratic existence, leaves traces in the outside world. Traces that show some of the object’s properties in a concise way. Just look at these photographs: Take....

In conservative Christian circles, the English Standard Version seems to be the Bible translation of choice. Many Calvinistic and Reformed leaders endorse this translation, and use it in their books and articles. I have personally used this translation for many years, and have enjoyed it. However, no translation is perfect. This isn’t a superficial comment meant to appease those who prefer other translations. Every translation of the S....
