I published two articles on MapLayout here and here . After all that work they are now effectively obsolete thanks to a new API in MapContainer that builds component placement directly into the map itself. Unfortunately the Google API doesn’t let us position components (native or otherwise) accurately as it pans the map. This creates a small delay when panning/zooming as the components try to catch up to the map. The only workaround is..

Rowan didn’t always want to be a software engineer. In fact, he had planned to study physics and astronomy when he started university. As a teen, he spent many hours behind a computer screen, where he became more and more curious as to how software worked, and the impact that technology could have on the world.

RFC 7232 implements support for conditional requests in HTTP. These are commonly used by downstream caches (including those built into browsers) in order to revalidate content - i.e. check whether the copy in cache is stale or whether it should still be considered valid. The primary mechanisms for this are If-Modified-Since (i.e. has it chanced since date x ) and If-None-Match (i.e. does it's Etag match any of those). If the metadata va....

I don’t own, and have no intention of owning, a MacBook as I own a touchscreen Windows laptop however this approach to make it support touch is genius. They use a mirror at the top of the screen and some image processing to work out where the finger is. They can determine if the finger is actually touching the screen by whether it is touching its reflection - very clever lateral thinking.

The ability to tunnel connections over an SSH connection is incredibly useful, essentially creating a poor man's VPN, whether to a specific port (ssh -L 1443:google.com:443 ssh-server.domain) or by standing up a SOCKS proxy (ssh -D 8080 ssh-server.domain). The most common complaint when doing this, though, is that the latency sucks. This is because of the TCP over TCP Problem . You're essentially running two layers of TCP congestion cont....

One of the joys of working at Jane Street for the last 15 or so years has been seeing how our software stack has grown in scope. When I started, I was building pretty narrowly focused systems for doing statistical research on trading strategies, and then building systems for executing those same strategies.

Timezones suck. Especially daylight saving. I don’t mind moving the clock or losing an hour of sleep as much as the programming bugs related to that practice. The thing that sucks even more is Java’s old date/time API. This was publicly acknowledged by the Java community with JSR 310 which replaced the Java Date & Time API’s however due to its complexity we still don’t have it yet. As a small workaround we created a small API to perform s..

I discussed the new Camera cn1lib last week . One of the motivations for doing it (besides the request from an enterprise account) was that of a new course module. Last week I added a new module covering the process of building the camera cn1lib… We have several online videos (both in the course and outside of it) covering native interfaces. So why do we need another one? Working with native code is error prone & complex. A lot of t..

In the past few weeks we’ve rolled out a Go microservice called ‘KIB’ to production, which reduced a huge portion of the infrastructure necessary for Movio’s main product, saving considerable AWS bills & maintenance, significantly simplified our architecture and made our product 80% faster on average. We wrote KIB on a Hackathon.
