There really isn’t much to say here, nor is there a rational reason behind this. I just see it as an opportunity to send a signal and test the capabilities of my UPS. I’ve prepared for this moment with my self-hosting setup, let’s see how well it holds up. Hopefully better than the electrical grid. Winter is coming. :harold:

Finally I found the missing link to set up EDID overrides on Big Sur and later, where System Integrity Protection (SIP) is enabled. In short, MacOS also takes overrides from the path /Library/Displays/Contents/Resources/Overrides, which is admin writable.

I’m going to take you on a journey of optimization to show you how to optimize a web crawler, image recognition, and machine learning model for speed. For this we need a hypothetical problem. The challenge Link to heading There’s a website where tickets to see your favourite artist are released daily at 3 pm. But every time you try, you are too slow. You need to be the first; how fast could you optimize your process if you fully automated..

The best way to grasp the spirit of a programming language is to read example programs” as Knuth wrote in the “The Early Development of Programming Languages” 1 . Today, it is common practice to provide an example program on the front page of a programming language’s marketing site (i.e., a “hero code example” as it were). Since the objective of the example is to showcase the language’s value versus others, what coding tasks best fulfill....

This post derives the asymptotic Gaussian efficiency of the quantile absolute deviation as a function of its quantile level. Pragmastat recommends Spread — the Shamos estimator — as a robust scale alternative with a 29% breakdown point. Confidence intervals are available via SpreadBounds . pragmastat.dev github.com/AndreyAkinshin/pragmastat I have already discussed the concept of the quantile absolute deviation in several ..

Just like spaces and tabs, we have dark mode vs light mode. Dark mode is definitely the cooler and popular one right now. I don’t even remember seeing Spotify out of dark mode now that I think about it. So is dark mode better than light mode? Dark mode is good for your eyes Dark mode helps you focus Dark mode is good for battery These are some of the promises from dark modes. For me , in my experience, light modes have been helpful for....

Just the other day, I received a restaurant menu split into a handful of image files. I wanted to forward the menu to others but figured I should probably send it as a single file. ImageMagick's convert command-line utility works great for this purpose. Feed it some images and it creates a pdf for you: convert image1.png image2.png image3.png combined.pdf Using convert for this purpose was pretty straightforward. I'm sure I'll use it....

Engineers like automating tasks. You find yourself running a set of commands, copying values between files and prompts, and you think I can automate this! Aside from the joke: “why spend 30 minutes doing something when you can spend 2 days writing a program to automate it”, I believe we don’t think enough about automation. Here I want to share some ideas. Broken automation is more painful than manual work Automation is wonderful unti..

If you listen to anyone discussing AWS security, you probably heard about Amazon GuardDuty . It’s an intelligent “threat detection” service from AWS. It’s similar to an IDS system because it detects issues but doesn’t prevent them.

Interaction between the Document-Policy *-images-max-bpp directive and a user-agent’s supported image formats is currently unspecified. Next-gen image formats of the present and future include WebP, AVIF, JPEG-XL, and WebP2. With every new format, new compression ratios become possible; however, cross-browser support is inconsistent. That means possible compression ratios also vary by browser. Fewer supported image formats should allow a ....

Intel's Optane memory modules launched with a lot of fanfare in 2015, and were recently discontinued, in 2022, with similar fanfare. It was a sad day for me, a lover of abstraction-breaking technologies, but it was forseeable and understandable. At the time of Optane's launch, a lot of us were excited about the idea of having a new storage tier, sitting between DRAM and flash. It was announced as having DRAM endurance and speed with the..
