As part of my new job at Decodable, I am also planning to contribute to the Apache Flink project (as Decodable’s fully-managed stream processing platform is based on Flink). Right now, I am in the process of familiarizing myself with the Flink code base, and as such I am of course building the project from source, too.

This short novel was a genuine surprise. I certainly didn’t expect Voltaire to be this accessible, witty, sarcastic, and also outrageous for the era (1759). Below the surface of a seemingly entertaining and often absurd sequence of improbable events is a constant philosophical struggle. Quoting from the back cover: Candide is the story of a gentle man who, though pummeled and slapped in every direction by fate, clings desperately to the..

In Defense of Dual-Encoders for Neural Ranking by Menon et. al. discusses the question of why dual-encoder (DE) models, also called Bi-Encoders elsewhere, don’t match the performance of cross-attention (CA) models. The authors investigate what is actually going on, and demonstrate some improved performance over baseline DE models with a new model distillation method. Background Search requires an automatic way to find the most relevant d....

On a recent mastodon post , Chris Spackman mentioned he uses Emacs to save ffmpeg commands he's figured out for later usage. Emacs is great for this kind of thing. I've tried different approaches over time and eventually landed on dwim-shell-command , a small package I wrote. Like Chris, I also wanted a way to invoke magical incantations of known shell commands without having to remember all the details. Chris's post reminded me of a ....

2022 was definitely an interesting year. COVID was given far less attention and we started living with it much like we live with the flu virus. Mask requirements were dropped, and many social events have resumed. Crazy COVID conspiracy theories and uproar are distant memories (at least for me). I’m still teaching IT classes remotely, which has resulted in better educational outcomes compared to the physical classroom. Working with operati....

Introduction In this video, Paulo shows the benefit of leveraging generic functions to write less code that does more. He starts by walking you through an API server he initially wrote that makes use of Go’s default HTTP handlers with a sprinkle of GORM to manage database transactions. He then refactors that code by introducing the concept of adapter functions. Paulo’s approach consists of decoupling his business logic with his API code...

Introduction In case you missed episode 4, Bill attempted to integrate current database sharing solutions to solve the “database ownership” problem his dependency manager faces. He tried providing copies of the database, implementing a load balancer and replication. While performing these experiments, Bill identified the qualities his dependency manager’s database needs to have for users to trust it. He closed episode 4 by stating that his..

Introduction In the last video, Bill left off talking about proof of work (PoW) algorithms. In a distributed and decentralized environment, PoW used to be the gold standard for a node to participate equitably in a Blockchain. However, with PoW as the number of nodes on the Blockchain increases, the amount of energy waste increases. This is because each node is performing the same computationally heavy calculation and only one node’s energy..

Introduction Most apps that work with time values eventually need to display time to a user. Go has a unique way of allowing you to specify how to display time values that is different from the C library function strftime. The strftime function tends to be the standard for languages and tooling to format time. Go developed its own format specification instead of using any existing format with the idea of being able to maintain a mental mod..

I’ve been enjoying the improvements in Python 3.11. I wanted to try them out on AWS Lambda, but it doesn’t yet support version 3.11 . What’s more, it still doesn’t support 3.10 ! Thankfully, Lambda allows custom runtimes, making it possible to run other Python versions, albeit with a lot more configuration. Here’s how I did it. Read More

I am working on a Maui application in my spare time and Visual Studio has this annoying habit of not showing the default Android emulator when I load the project. I could go through the hassle of creating a new emulator each time but that is painful and slow.

As with most anything I’ve tried to start as a habit, these update posts have become far less then routine. Not to say I haven’t done anything worth writing about - I’m just incredibly lazy. Anyways, here’s what’s up: What I’m Working On I’ve installed a number of Pimoroni Enviro sensors around the home. It’s been great being able to retrieve hyperlocal weather and environment data to do with as I see fit.
