The Power of Now was a deeply insightful read, that I got a lot out of. Flipping through it’s pages, the act of reading itself…

The Housemaid was a thriller in every sense of the word. I haven’t really experienced many books like this, where the pages seemed…

The Cerakey Nada 65 Panda is the world’s first keyboard featuring ceramic keycaps, designed to deliver the smoothest and thockiest typing possible. When I first heard about it, I knew I had to try it - the promise of ceramic keycaps was too intriguing to pass up. The keyboard arrived in beautiful packaging, and the build quality exceeded my expectations.

From changing jobs to international conferences to discovering 3D printing and more. My 2024 in review.

The amount of JavaScript you ship to your users directly impacts your site’s performance. A smaller bundle size means faster initial loading times and an overall snappier experience for end users. In this post, I’ll show you how to analyze your SvelteKit bundle size and optimize it by moving heavy dependencies to the server. Analyzing Bundle Sizes Before we start, let’s set up a tool to visualize our bundle sizes. We’ll use rollup-plugin-vi..

We had our fourth short story fika yesterday. This time, the theme was ‘duty’ and the stories featured were: The Sniper by Liam O’Flaherty The Lottery by Shirley Jackson The Veldt by Ray Bradbury It was just three of us this time, and we had a great chat about the duties and sacrifices of war, the questioning (or lack thereof) of outdated traditions, and the costs of our increasing reliance on automation in daily life.

Here is what I read in 2024. Did much more sampling and dropping books halfway (I still love you, Moby Dick) so it’s a shorter list than last year. Hope you find a gem or two in there for your reading lists. Happy new year! 🤓 Non-Fiction (English) Fiction (French) Non-Fiction (French)

Is it even worth talking about what weather is and isn’t “unseasonable” anymore? Turing Machines (Sam Rose): Gödel, Escher, Bach is one of my favorite books and I’m fascinated by computability theory. Sam’s Turing machine simulator was characteristically amazing, but I wish there was a bit more of a look into complexity theory and the progression from regular expressions to Turing machines rather than diving straight into the deep....

Het beste van 2024 - roo.se - 1 year ago - nld
Zelf geniet ik altijd veel van andermans eindejaarslijstjes, dus vandaar dat ik ook dit jaar weer deel welke media mij in 2024 hebben beziggehouden.

Exo-101. Úvod do exopolitiky. Základní průvodce exopolitikou, shrnující desítky let výzkumu do jednoho kurzu Myslím, že tento kurz je jednou z nejlepších věcí, které jsem v životě udělala. Téma bylo strhující a vzrušující, někdy až šokující. V tématu, které má tolik úhlů pohledu, permutací a dezinformací, bylo úžasné nechat se vést nejlepšími dostupnými důkazy, nejautentičtějšími […]

You can absolutely run Qwen-2.5 32B . And of course, Llama-3.1 8B and Llama-3.2 Vision 11B are no problem at all.

Some time ago, I wrote about adding multiple cursor support to symbol-overlay by gluing the two packages together. If you're keen to learn how to bend Emacs to your way, have a look at that post. Later on, in a "Multiple cursors - how and why?" Reddit post , I showcased the overlay usage. Peter Oliver asked if the package could be submitted to MELPA . To my delight, he also volunteered to take on the submission . Unfortunately..

Last year, I noticed that routine programming no longer brought me the same joy it did decades ago. So, my New Year’s resolution was to engage in more “useless” programming – coding small, fun projects without any specific end goal in mind. Of all the possible topics, the one that captivated me throughout the year was retrocomputing. I didn’t have a computer until I was 14, but I remember seeing grey 8-bit machines at school or friends' hou..

This is a good read from Steves String. I discovered this blog from a youtube channel called Internet of Bugs. The post completely changes the way we think about productivity and work, especially when your are at the other end of your 30s. The post discusses about how it’s not feasible to work for long hours without any interruption. It’s not just about the physical health, but also about the mental health.

Reply to Seconds Since the Epoch (HN) Somewhat related: I really like Erlang's docs about handling time. They have common scenarios laid out and document which APIs to use for them. Like: retrieve system time, measure elapsed time, determine order of events, etc. https://www.erlang.org/doc/apps/erts/time_correction.html#how-to-work-with-the-new-api Syndicated to: …

If you’ve ever heard someone claim that Test-Driven Development leads to zero-defects code, congratulations, you’ve encountered one of software development’s most enduring myths. It’s an alluring idea. Write tests first, and your code becomes bulletproof. But like many things in life, the reality is far messier. TDD isn’t a golden ticket to perfection, nor should it be. Here’s why the idea of zero defects is both unrealistic and, in ma....

Vandring i Hågadalen - liza.io - 1 year ago - eng
Idag visade en vän mig Hågadalen. Det är så härligt att ha så vacker natur på promenadavstånd från mitt hem. Vi vandrade dit från hans lägenhet efter att ha druckit lite alkoholfri glögg. Jag tog med fika, och han hade med sig utsökta lunchsmörgåsar.
