I like to think I’m pretty environmentally friendly. I try to minimize my waste , take quick showers, and not run unnecessary appliances, like heating and cooling systems. I’m definitely not a super earthy-crunchy-Hippie-type, but I’m at least vaguely cognizant of the atrocities I commit against Mother Nature. My main sin against the planet, aside from just being American, is the fact that I run errands in an 11,500 pound tank that gets 8 ..

Indirection is an extremely common programming technique. In fact, it's well known that all problems in computer science can be solved with an extra layer of indirection . Accessing data through a layer of indirection has some performance impact. The most important aspect of the performance impact however, is if the indirection is predictable . If the ultimately accessed data is accessed in a coherent order, even through a layer of in....

Man kan lese fra moderne tanker på IT-utvikling at prosjekter er en avleggs arbeidsform. For de som har erfaring med utviklingsaktiviteter innen offentlig og privat sektor kan dette virke som en rar påstand. De aller fleste ser behovet for å unngå store prosjekter, men er prosjektet som arbeidsform virkelig avleggs? Det spør naturligvis på hva man mener: I alle de årene jeg har jobbet med IT-utvikling er det en ting som er sikkert.

It took a while (1.5 years since my last class – I’ve been busy!), but I am ready with my Advanced Oracle Troubleshooting training (version 2.5) that has plenty of updates, including some more modern DB kernel tracing & ASH stuff and of course Oracle 12c topics! The online training will take place on 16-20 November & **14-18 December 2015 **(Part 1 and Part 2). The latest TOC is below: /files/AOT25_description.pdf Seminar regi..

there has been some movement in the last year or two to introduce some form of strong typing, or type hints, into Python. What does this mean, and how does it work? One way to think about it is by looking […]

Last weekend, the Python Hackathon Düsseldorf took place at trivago's office. Although we were only five people we had a lot of fun. I took the chance to brush up my Python skills a little bit. Also I wanted to scratch an itch that was bugging me for a long time: our housekeeping book.

I’ve never really been camping before, so when a friend asked if I wanted to go camping over Labor Day weekend, I gladly accepted. In the past, I’ve mentioned that living in the truck feels like perpetual camping. Think about it: I practically live outside, I forgo a lot of modern conveniences (namely heat, A/C, and a nearby bathroom), and I fall asleep to the sounds of nature every night (there’s a shocking amount of wildlife at the edge o..
