Today is the big day! After years of research, months of hard work, experiments, and collecting feedback, Federico’s new book is finally available. It’s everything you need to know about migrating from RPG and the only book in the world to focus on migrating RPG code to modern languages. Migrating RPG Code to Modern techniques […] The post Migrating RPG code to modern languages appeared first on Strumenta .

When generating code with an LLM, sometimes a task is so laborious to specify that you may as well do it manually. But, sometimes, you can find just the right information to cinch together to enable the model to do the work. Here’s an example. At Notion, I had built some UI for a new feature. Ken, my designer colleague, reviewed the working software and updated his Figma mocks with some refinements he wanted. I needed to implement those r....

Cosmos, the book by Carl Sagan, does something remarkable. It starts in a distant part of the universe. It does a slow zoom, through desolate space, through groups of galaxies, through the Milky Way, through a remote arm of the Milky Way, through the solar system, past the most distant plants, finally into Earth. It shows us as a tiny note of dust in an obscure part of the universe. Then, it moves to one of the early civilizations, in Ale..

In 2004, a portion of an IRC log was submitted to Bash, a website which records humorous or odd IM or IRC conversations. In it, a user by the name of AzureDiamond was tricked into giving away his password, which was hunter2. The exact date of upload is unknown, but

I ran into this tweet from about a month ago : dax @thdxr programmers have a dumb chip on their shoulder that makes them try and emulate traditional engineering there is zero physical cost to iteration in software - can delete and start over, can live patch our approach should look a lot different than people who build bridges I have to say that I would strongly disagree with this statement. Using the building example, it is....

Yesterday evening I made a start on a small refactor to the backend API handling of scopes. It should ultimately result in fine grained access tokens that make a lot more sense than they currently do. Trying to get my head back into typescript after several weeks of quite intense bash and dockerfiles. #

There’s less variation this year with the base iPhone 17 and Pro models sharing a display. The Plus model is gone but we get a new iPhone Air. Here’s what you need to know about the iPhone 17 models. The New Models in a Nutshell There’s no iPhone 17 Plus model this year. Instead the iPhone 17 gets the same 6.3" display as the iPhone 17 Pro. The Pro Max keeps the 6.9" display from last year. Finally, we have the new iPhone Air with a 6.5" ....

Foreword : Please note this falls firmly into "nitpick" territory rather than shining light onto any sort of major issue. I just thought it was an interesting gotcha and wanted to share. TL;DR : To fully implement the PSR-16 specification as defined, an implementation MUST be contravariant of the defined interface in its accepted parameters when implementing v2 or later. I work on an application with a proprietary caching layer. Recent....

I want to dispel the misconception that using an Android phone means living within Google’s panopticon of data collection and advertising. This is very not true! For the past 8+ years I have used an Android phone without any direct relationship with Google or any of their services (e.g. the Play store). My phone’s (and tablet’s) operating system, and now the apps, all come from elsewhere. I also want to show that this arrangement is high..






We present Nebula, a system for differentially private histogram estimation on data distributed among clients. Nebula allows clients to independently decide whether to participate in the system, and locally encode their data so that an untrusted server only learns data values whose multiplicity exceeds a predefined aggregation threshold, with ((\varepsilon,\delta)) differential privacy guarantees. Compared to existing systems, Nebula unique..

I'm a huuuge fan of analog video, but the only solution I know to enjoy it is through CRT screens. Very nostalgic and fascinating in general, but I'm always concerned when it comes to point a particle accelerator right in front of my face to blow my eyes. I know about some car screens and dash cam screns that are flat, TFT-based that are analog, but I don't know much about them. Is there any good solution to enjoy analog video with no..

Cuando hablamos de Linux en el escritorio a todos nos vienen a la mente nombres como GNOME o KDE. Estos dos escritorios son probablemente los más populares e implementan mucha tecnología de forma interna. Otros escritorios menos populares pero también relativamente conocidos podrían ser XFCE, MATE, Cinnamon, LXDE, LXQt. Sin embargo, en este post vamos a descubrir algunos escritorios y window managers menos conocidos. Diferencia entre escri....

Mostly cleanup tasks today following on from all the recent progress in the dev environment and on the blog. I need to remove all the old projects that got consolidated and I need to check a few things. I noticed this morning that in Feedly the everything RSS feed for the blog wasn’t showing any posts, so there might be something broken there, I need to check all the RSS feeds . #

As my cat woke me up way too early for a Saturday morning, I decided to put all this extra time (and my ChatGPT Pro subscription) into good use and generated a QR-code generator for PostgreSQL, written as a single pure SQL statement . No external libraries or Postgres extension installation needed! The pqr.sql example usage is simple: $ psql -qf pqr.sql -v payload='Hello, World!' There’s also a bit more complex version pqrsafe...
