Yesterday Cerberus 0.8.1 was released with a few little fixes , one of them being more a new feature than a fix really: sub-document fields can now be set as field dependencies by using a ‘dotted’ notation. So, suppose we set the following validation schema: schema = { 'test_field': { 'dependencies': [ 'a_dict.foo', 'a_dict.bar' ] }, 'a_dict': { 'type': 'dict', 'schema': { 'foo': {'type': 'string'}, 'bar': {'type': 'string'..

Rust is a reasonably large project: the compiler and standard libraries are over 350kloc, built across nearly 40000 commits by the hands of around 900 contributors. Not only that: there are more than 30 other repositories in the rust-lang GitHub organisation that shouldn’t fall by the wayside, and, for rust-lang/rust alone, there are often more than 100 pull requests landing and a dozen new contributors in a single week.

In Understanding Media, McLuhan describes the shift in western society from an agrarian economy to an industrial economy as a template for the next shift from an industrial economy to an information economy. Another characteristic reversal after passing a road break boundary is that the country ceases to be the center of all work, and the city ceases to be the center of leisure. In fact, improved roads and transport have reversed the an....

Here are two quick git tricks that I’ve added to my toolbox lately… I wanted to create a git alias that takes in argv from the command, but in the middle of the command. Here’s the hack that I came up with for the [alias] section of my ~/.gitconfig: [alias] # cherryfetch fetches a repo ($1) / branch ($2) and applies it rebased! # the && true at the end eats up the appended args cherryfetch = !git fetch "$1" "$..

Today, the New York Times’ SundayReview features a great column by Matthew B. Crawford: The Cost of Paying Attention . Attention is a resource; a person has only so much of it […] What if we saw attention in the same way that we saw air or water, as a valuable resource that we hold in common? Perhaps, if we could envision an “attentional commons,” then we could figure out how to protect it.

Go is an object oriented programming language. It may not have inheritance, but in this 20 minute video from the Bangalore meetup, I will show you how object oriented programming practices and techniques can be applied to your Go programs. From an object oriented standpoint, Go does provides the ability to add behavior to your types via methods, allows you to implement polymorphic behavior via interfaces and gives you a way to extend the st..

Finding the fastest Turing Machine that computes a given function is uncomputable. (And the consequences for superoptimisation)

Assume, for a contradiction, that we have some function optimise(f), that returns the fastest Turing Machine that computes the (partial) function f. The exact definition of 'fastest' doesn't matter. Now consider the function \( \operatorname{returnOneOnHalt_f}(x) \), that simulates the execution of function f on input x. If f halts, then \( \operatorname{returnOneOnHalt_f} \) returns 1 and halts. If the function f doesn't halt then ....

Uganda has been in the news headlines around the world since 2009, when it introduced its first Anti-homosexuality Bill and there have been several attempts since then to increase penalties for LGBT people and those who help them. Unsurprisingly, criminalization, physical violence and harassment has led many in the LGBT community to socialize, discuss and organize online. However, many LGBT people are now facing extreme digital threats,....

Tightly coupled software presents the biggest difficulty when teams are looking to extend or change systems. As systems get larger, coupling limits the scope of change and self perpetuates. The easiest way to extend tightly coupled code is often to weave in even more interdependence.
