Volgens Angela Duckworth werkt wilskracht niet maar kun je het jezelf wel makkelijker maken door handig gebruik te maken van fysieke afstand. Wil je meer lezen? Leg een boek op tafel en leg je telefoon zo ver mogelijk weg. Wil je gezonder eten? Haal dan geen chips in huis, maar appels. “You cannot change the conditions of modern life, but you are the sovereign ruler of what enters your personal space. Physical distance creates psychologic..

En Mark Manson deelt zijn cheat codes. Deze vond ik interessant omdat ik vorig jaar begonnen ben met dagelijkse Morning Pages (drie pagina’s volschrijven): “To observe your own thoughts and not be a fuckface, you need to get your thoughts out in front of you and pretend that they aren’t yours. Only then can you hear how utterly ridiculous they sound. One common way to do this is to write down your thoughts regularly. This can be a jou..

I still feel like a noob when it comes down to schizo opsec stuff or just basic privacy settings, but I finally have more time to tinker with my thinkpad again and would like to have more anonymity and ownership on my machine. To be fair I only use mullvad + their socks5 and brave with the built-in opendns right now... I'd like to at least be able to visit onion/tor links and avoid (m)any of the absurd EU privacy laws, but I truly have no..

The past year has been an exciting one for our mobile apps (Artsy, Folio and Palette Mobile) and we started to finally get closer to where we want to be: High-performing and developer-friendly React Native applications, enabling rapid feature iteration and a superior user experience. We would like to share with you some of the improvements we made that might also be applicable to your react-native app. Infra Expo! At the end of 2024,....

I guess I’m a runner now. I never liked running. I did swim team in high school and that was pretty much the only sport I enjoyed. During the pandemic I started running a little bit, but I didn’t know very much and when I moved to Salt Lake City to start my PhD I pretty much stopped running entirely because everywhere was so hilly. Last year I moved again and I saw that I had a nice, flat route I could take for running if I wanted to. I....

Also known as “you can just put whatever you want in a jitdump you know?” When you profile JIT code, you have to tell a profiler what on earth is going on in those JIT bytes you wrote out. Otherwise the profiler will shrug and just give you some addresses. There’s a decent and fairly common format called jitdump , which originates in perf but has become used in more places. The basic thrust of the parts we care about is: you have na....

A Discord server I use has a channel called #til, standing for Today I Learned. It’s a place to post interesting or surprising things you recently learned. I took my posts to that channel from the last couple of years, tidied them up and have listed them below. Hopefully you’ll find something interesting there: TIL […]

because without dramatic policies that addressed the disruption that artificial intelligence products introduced, we'd be in a bad spot. Figure 1: Heroes? Imagine if stories like this had started to happen in 2026 without fallbacks like the UBI policies that Altman and Amodei pushed: But the reality is that 75% of the people on our engineering team lost their jobs here yesterday because of the brutal impact AI has h....

Axiom is an ecosystem of formal logic tools for education. If you’ve used Carnap or Logic Penguin , you know the idea — but those platforms send proofs to a server for validation. Axiom runs entirely client-side. No network latency. No tracking. Works offline. The core is a TypeScript reimplementation of Kevin Klement’s fitch-checker , the PHP validator that powered the original Logic Penguin. The JavaScript version means you can embe..

Pony Express Rider, oil painting possibly by Lloyd Branson (1853-1925) In March 1860, William H. Russell established the Overland Express Route, colloquially called the Pony Express , to carry express mail between St. Joseph, Missouri, and California; an area with no colonialist settlements between. Russell failed repeatedly to get funding from the Senate Post Office for the project, as most considered year-round transportation betwe..

Recently, a study made the Hacker News’ front page mentioning that 50% of U.S. vinyl buyers don’t own a record player. There was ample discussion on whether it was GenZ collecting aesthetic objects or a fashion statement. They are not wrong, but I wanted to share why I bought a vinyl without a record player. I own four vinyl records. I’ve never played a single one in my house, and I’m not planning to buy a record player.

Following my adventures (part 1, part 2) with the RP2350-USB-A, I took another look at the alternatives. Specifically, I am looking for a cheap dev board with two full USB ports (1 device, 1 host), that could be easily programmable, and would be production-ready for hobbyist projects (if you’re a professional, you’ll just manufacture your […] The post (No) alternatives to the RP2350-USB-A appeared first on Quentin Santos .

In response to the GPG.Fail attacks, a Hacker News user made this claim about the 64-bit “Long Key IDs” used by OpenPGP and GnuPG, while responding to an answer I gave to someone else’s question: OK, to be clear, I am specifically contending that a key fingerprint does not include collisions. My proof is empirical, that no […]

You may have heard about a recent security vulnerability in MongoDB (MongoBleed). The gist is that you can (as an unauthenticated user) remotely read the contents of MongoDB’s memory (including things like secrets, document data, and PII). You can read the details about the actual technical issue in the link above. The root cause of the problem is that the authentication process for MongoDB uses MongoDB’s own code. That sounds like a ver....
