Willful self-injury Peace Corps volunteers returning from parts of West Africa are given the Liver Bomb, and strict instruction: continue malaria prevention, abstain from alcohol completely for weeks, and follow the protocol exactly. This potentially harmful medication is administered presumptively, without any presenting symptoms. Why? The risk is high: these volunteers spend years in rural areas with limited sanitation, facing near....

I typically describe my career as being the result of a lot of luck. There are so many key moments in my professional journey that just happened to go right for me while also being largely out of my control that it feels disingenuous to attribute the entirety of my achievements to my own skill. I’ve certainly put a lot of effort in to my craft, but identical inputs between two different people can yield extremely different outcomes due to....

This thread is for discussing mods development. My current goal is to learn C#/F# and Java by modding Lethal Company, Minecraft and Project Zomboid, since those are the games I'm playing. I find that modding these games looks easier than expected, since in most cases you can leverage the Reflection feature of both the .NET Runtime and the JVM to patch classes at runtime. I'm still trying to decide on a game that would require machine ..

My side project Abot for Slack , has been around for ~7 years, i.e., since Rails 5.1 . It’s now yielding passive income while running on an almost complete autopilot. But I’m still keeping its dependencies up-to-date. The recent migration to Rails 8 was arguably the most impactful in the app’s lifetime. In this blog post, I’ll describe features introduced in the newest version of the framework and how they affected my project. Kamal vs D....

The first time, when you spent the money to acquire it. The second time, when you spent the time to learn to use it. The third time, when you spent your team’s time getting trained to confidence. The fourth time, when you patched over the problems and inconsistencies with more money and time and attention. Was there a fifth? A sixth, a seventh? And then you paid for it one last time as you replaced or retired it. A training cour..

BCHD has an interesting history in the Bitcoin Cash ecosystem. Originally launched in 2018, it quickly became known for its developer-friendly features and modern architecture. When Chris Pacia, the original developer, moved on to other projects, BCHD was left without active maintenance. Like many open source projects, maintaining consensus with network upgrades requires consistent development effort, and in 2023, BCHD fell out of consensus..

Last year I wrote an article about visualizing embedding vectors of a variety of different pictures as heatmaps. I used TorchVision with ImageNet1K_V1 model for encoding a bunch of different cat, dog and plane images into their embeddings, 1000 floating-point values in each resulting vector. I used the generate_embeddings.py script for that. This whole exercise is just for my own learning (and fun), so it’s ok if there’s no other pra..

Lost to the ether of the internet, and bad decision making at Mozilla, is a toot I made in August of last year. My local archive has a copy though: Nobody: Nobody: Nobody: Nobody: Me: … maybe I should read Arrian So yeah. I read Arrian. Or more specifically, the Anabasis of Alexander . Arrian seemed like a good choice. After having read Herodotus , Thucydides and Xenophon’s Hellenika the next chunk of Greek history chr....

It’s an edition coming in right at the buzzer this week! I had a really fulfilling day today — went to the first session for a new book club this morning and hosted friendly low buy-in poker with some friends in the afternoon. I’m feeling good about the time I’m spending with people I care about so far in 2025; I hope to continue it through the rest of the month!

In Keeping Up with Current Events , I talked about the websites I turn to each morning to stay informed; in My Evening Reads , I shared the many others I follow on niche subjects. Podcasts, however, are another important part of how I learn and grow. Some offer regular updates on current events, while others dive deep into niche topics. As a complement to Keeping Up with Current Events and My Evening Reads , I wanted to start a..

As I mentioned in my June blog post , AI is here to stay. It will be something we take for granted in several years as the tools we use evolve to seamlessly accommodate it. Until then, we should still avoid getting caught up in current AI hype, and no – there won’t be future job titles of AI prompt engineer once it becomes as ubiquitous as Googling. Since AI will overhaul tech-related industries long before others, it’s important tha..

Happy new year! I am in the middle of converting searchcode.com over to SQLite, which is a far more interesting future post, and as a result had to rewrite some of the core service logic. The previously implemented code had grown over time so I decided to start fresh. Of course the catch of this is introducing regressions, which I did by stripping out some of the caching logic I had implemented.
