We'll still've remote access in any other case n should be ablea fix anything on a higher level, assuming we'llve enough energy for that as we're recovering from surgery (at the very least we might take ..

Hamel dives deep into how LLM frameworks like langchain , instructor , and guidance perform tasks like formatting the response in a valid JSON output. He intercepts the API calls from these Python libraries to shed some light on how many API calls (to OpenAI’s GPT services) they make and what prompt they use. I’ve always been skeptic of the usefulness of many of the LLM “wrapper” libraries, specially for larger and more serious proje..

I just had a very special delivery that I was looking forward to for a few days now. I received my Canon AE-1 Program from 1981. I’m drawn towards the simplicity, haptic, connectedness to the past and less arbitrariness of digital photography or life in general. Just a few months ago I also bought a new notebook, the Midori traveller’s notebook. Although I’ve been journaling on paper for a while now, I replaced digital notes with this as ....

The thing that’s wrong about imposter syndrome is that for the most part no one is thinking about you at all. They’re too busy with their own doubts and their own work.”

Thanks to Giovanni Ansaldo’s convincing review on yesterday’s issue of Il Mondo podcast, my first Bandcamp purchase 1 is the recently released Astral Gold album by Dean McPhee, a British guitarist who combines folk with experimental music and jazz using his telecaster guitar to create endless landscapes. As the title suggests, McPhee’s latest album is a journey into outer space. The album consists of six instrumental pieces, all ca..

Als je met de hand schrijft is het brein op een andere (en betere) manier actief. Omdat je minder tijd en ruimte hebt als je met de hand schrijft moet je zorgvuldiger omgaan met de informatie die je tot je neemt. Tijdens dit proces weeg je meteen af wat belangrijk is wat ervoor zorgt dat je het beter onthoudt. Mijn voornemen is daarom om voortaan tijdens vergaderingen handgemaakte notities te maken en deze later digitaal te verwerken.


Defense in Depth - snyk.io - 2 years ago - eng
Defense in depth is a cybersecurity approach that focuses on making it as difficult as possible for attackers to succeed by combining numerous security measures.

In this post, we'll review Snyk's approach to documentation, the recent improvements we've made, and what's coming soon.

Welcome back to our exhilarating journey through the Bandit Challenge!

Reply to mkj: "Actually, more important than backups is restores…" - Mastodon I reviewed this recently, and found that I needed at least one device where I was logged in to 1password to be able to restore everything. So, I've started keeping a paper key with the 1password secret key so that I can restore it as well. One addition I wanted to do was to have some kind of manual …

Reply to Anyone know where I can find all the valid values for ActiveState, SubState etc in systemd? According to https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/latest/systemctl.html , the possible states are not constant and new systemd releases can both add and remove values. This command can be used to display the current set of possible values: systemctl --state=help

I’m growing sick and tired of Spotify’s music-consuming model. There are many compelling and sometimes conflicting reasons, most perfectly outlined in The day I canceled my Spotify subscription on Raed’s blog. I used to cherish music, I used to religiously collect, catalog and enjoy every album on my iPod. I could navigate the endless folders and find that exact song that I needed for that precise moment. Spotify killed that, I list..

I came across this Linkedin post from a Google engineer, on a new (in preview) and very interesting BigQuery syntax: GROUP BY ALL. This will save time when writing and specially modifying complex SQL queries on BigQuery. The GROUP BY ALL clause groups rows by inferring grouping keys from the SELECT items. It will exclude expressions with aggregate and window functions, constants, and query parameters for a smart GROUP BY. So instead of..

The Yak Shave - www.marginalia.nu - 2 years ago - eng
I set out a little over a week ago to add a service registry to Marginalia Search, primarily to reduce its dependence on docker. I would like it to be able to run on bare metal as well, which poses a problem since configuring the application manually is a bit of a headache with dozens of ports that need to be set up. It would also be desirable to be able to run multiple instances of important services in order elliminate downtime during upg..

Apologies for the delayed weekly this week — it may be Tuesday, but it’s still the same content you’ve come to appreciate and expect! Personal updates I’ve got a new homepage ! I’ve been wanting to start over with my homepage for a while and I’m very happy with how it turned out. I took inspiration from a few new places around the web, but it still feels like my own. I posted the second installment in my Nix on macOS series last ....

When developing FastAPI based web services, I sometimes run into a weird issue on Windows: I kill the uvicorn process, but the port it used remains in use and I get responses in the browser, even though the server appears to not be running. Today I learned what's

In the complex landscape of software development, aligning design methodologies with business needs is crucial. Domain-Driven Design (DDD) emerges as a key approach in addressing this alignment, especially in projects characterized by intricate business rules and processes. This methodology stands in contrast to traditional practices, such as embedding business logic within databases, offering a more adaptable and business-focused perspecti....

There are several nice options in NixOS for specifying scheduled backup jobs, including borgbackup, borgmatic and restic. But I’ve often used rsync in the past, and there is no such module for scheduled rsync jobs (or rsnapshot either). So I wrote my own simple module.
