This holiday season is a good time to ask the same question in a different context: are your organization’s practices with AI, application security tooling, and other security-related practices putting you on the security naughty or nice list this year?

At times when every second of uptime is of elevated importance, how can engineering teams ensure zero downtime and performant applications? Here are some key strategies and […]

I left Facebook to get away from all the hate. But there’s community information there I find valuable and so I signed up again (after years away). And my account is suspended! Somehow I didn’t follow their community standards EVEN BEFORE I LOGGED IN! I can tell you that all I ever did was leave Facebook and delete my account there. I certainly never “violated thier community standards” (as if they really have them with the hate they promot..

A brief guide outlining the process of setting up and running S3 Batch Operations Jobs with Lambda integration.

Somewhere in my adolescence I got stuck with the notion that functional languages were slow while languages like C were fast. Now, a good C programmer can eke more performance out of their code than probably anyone else, but the cost you pay to keep your code correct goes exponential as you get closer and closer to the machine. Functional languages abstract a lot away from the machine. Higher languages in general abstract away the machine....

A simple guide to reading in 9 simple steps Navigate to the desired article. Dismiss the GDPR banner It may seem safe to start reading, but you need to wait about 10 seconds as the various ad auctions resolve and scripts load in Wait while the article is populated with ads.

The Marginalia Crawler has seen improvements! A long term problem with the crawler design is that if for whatever reason the crawler shuts down, then it needs to re-start fetching whatever domains it was currently traversing during the termination from zero. This isn’t fantastic, since not only does crawling a website take a fair bit of time, it’s a nuisance for the server admins to re-crawl stuff that was already fetched, and a real liab..

Six years ago, I wrote a summary of my experience working with Ember for a year . I had been with Cinch Financial for a year, building their web & mobile apps with Ember and Elixir/Phoenix. After Cinch I joined Salsify, a leader in the Ember ecosystem, and shipped some great products built with Ember during my five-year tenure. I built their Catalog Sites product using an Ember admin app and a React/Next.js frontend. Building a single prod....

Mitte 2015 war bei unserem Scenic II plötzlich das Lüftungsgebläse aus. Seinerzeit berichtete ich im Beitrag „Scenic II Lüftungsgebläse plötzlich aus„, wie eine freie Werkstatt diesen gegen ein originales Ersatzteil vom Erstausrüster (Valeo) tauschte. Kostenpunkt damals: 172 Euro. Den genauen Defekt am Vorwiderstand erfuhren wir damals nicht. Nun, fast pünktlich zu Weihnachten, war die Lüftung […] The post Scenic II Lüftungsgebläse plötz..

We reached the end of another year, and generally, this is a good time to look back, to evaluate what was done, what wasn’t done and eventually plan ahead. While dedicating some time to the first task, it occurred to me that I should share some of this stuff. I doubt it will be useful […]


In mijn werk heb ik te maken met veel verschillende applicaties en websites. Wat mij opvalt is dat er meestal dezelfde, makkelijk op te lossen, fouten worden gemaakt. Hieronder 7 tips die de gebruiksvriendelijkheid van je website of applicatie direct verbeteren.

It turns out that you can’t trust any USB type A power adapter to be within spec. I have a Catit Flower Fountain for my two adorable cats. The idea of a water fountain for cats may sound odd, but having one really helps with cats staying hydrated and that alone avoids all sorts of health issues. At one point I wanted to see if I could create a sort of a DIY UPS for the water fountain. It would be quite bad if I was at work and ....

I know that people rave about GMail's spam filtering, but it didn't work for me: I was seeing too many false positives. I personally prefer to see some false negatives (i.e. letting some spam through), but to reduce false positives as much as possible (and ideally have a way to tune this). Here's the local SpamAssassin setup I have put together over many years. In addition to the parts I describe here, I also turn off greylisting on m....

It seems no matter how long I work with the command line, every once in a while I find handy utilities I've never encountered before. Most people have heard about the bird coreutils , that's where utilities such as echo, cat, and others come from. But did you know about moreutils ?
