In this article, I'm describing how we used the AAARRRP framework to visually describe our DevRel team's strategy and clarify the reason for our day to day activities to our internal stakeholders, and more focus on impact instead.

When we choose a change point detection algorithm, the most important thing is to clearly understand why we want to detect the change points. The knowledge of the final business goals is essential. In this post, I show a simple example of how a business requirement can be translated into algorithm adjustments.

I was thinking about how I would go about becoming untraceable online (assuming I am incredibly paranoid, but don’t want to just be sitting in public places all the time to get anonymous connections). Tor is a good start, but I’m willing to bet most nodes are malicious, and that the NSA has a couple vulnerabilities up their sleeve. A VPN is probably not the best option, but if you could trust the VPN provider completely, and trust the....

The UK's “Minister for Women and Equality”, Kemi Badenoch, who openly espouses hate for LGBTQ+ people, has said that many of these countries and territories no longer meet British standards. This is because they have followed the overall world-wide trend of improved rights for transgender people, which the UK opposes. The precise line between political scapegoating and bigotry on this issue is unclear.

And codeowners are a perfect tool for this. This way every colleague in our company can join our Github organization and get write-access to the repositories (so they can create branches) and finally create a pull requests without needing to fork it to ....

https://www.reddit.com/r/explainlikeimfive/comments/18g0nry/eli5_physicists_say_that_information_is_never/ The difference between a pile of ash and a piece of paper with a word written in ink is information. I get that part. What I don’t get is why they say it is absolutely critical to physics that information can never truly be lost, thus the problem with black holes potentially destroying information. And what I really don’t get ..

Hi, “Ein Bild sagt mehr als tausend Worte” Dieses Sprichwort habe ich schon früh gehört. Vermutlich das erste Mal in der Schulzeit. Es ist eine Weisheit, die wir schon lange weiter tragen. Vielleicht verbindest du dieses Sprichwort eher mit Bereichen wie Marketing, Statistik, Politik oder du denkst wie ich an die Weisheiten der Lehrer von damals. Etwas, das ich in den letzten Jahren immer wieder realisiert habe, ist: Es ist ..

A few months back I had an email exchange with Drew Capener, from filtra.io, who is interviewing professionals involved in the Rust community. We ended up having a nice chat, which he transcribed and posted online under the title “Contributing to Rust as a novice”. It even triggered some discussion on Hacker News! What did we talk about? The adventure of contributing to Rust in 2014 as a beginner to programming, the crucial role of friendly..

So on occasion, I find myself wanting to run SQL against customer databases. Where this gets annoying is that because we are often in AWS using lambda I have no ability to connect to them. Occasionally im able to bully the friendly devops’ and security people to allow me access to a bastion host, which I can then connect to the SQL database. However this is often a painful process if allowed at all, and so with permission I sometimes add ..

I recently got a Steam Deck for my birthday. Ever since its initial launch, I was on the fence about getting one. The first reason was that I already had a handheld in Nintendo Switch. And second, my top played game genre is Real-time Strategy (RTS), which doesn’t really work that well on a handheld. After using it for a week, I am a big fan of the device.

I always struggle a bit with I’m asked about the “hallucination problem” in LLMs. Because, in some sense, hallucination is all LLMs do. They are dream machines. We direct their dreams with prompts. The prompts start the dream, and based on the LLM’s hazy recollection of its training documents, most of the time the result goes someplace useful. It’s only when the dreams go into deemed factually incorrect territory that we label it ..

This December, the imp of the perverse struck me, and I decided to see how many days of Advent of Code I could do purely in compile-time C++ metaprogramming. As of this writing, I’ve done two days, and I’m not sure I’ll make it any further. However, that’s one more day than I planned to do as of yesterday, which is in turn further than I thought I’d make it after my first attempt.
