Thoughts from my chat with Tom MacWright about finding the right balance with tech debt in startups. It's a tricky game between speed and sustainability!

My new Nothing Ear earphones had been working great, but after a few weeks I noticed that sometimes they sounded like they were underwater. The audio would be extremely quiet and muffled. No matter how I adjusted any of the EQ settings, noise cancellation, in-ear detection, codec choice, or anything else in the Nothing app, the problem persisted.

Linux location services provided by GeoClue have been historically unreliable. Whether it’s VPN usage causing incorrect locations, rate limits from upstream services, or broken functionality after system upgrades, users often find themselves struggling with basic location-aware features.

Just found an incredible guide on building LLMs as a judge by Hamel Husain! Super insightful, especially since we’re using a similar system at Ada to evaluate transcript resolutions. Excited about how smartly it's avoiding blind spots in test coverage!

Reflecting on my 2016 days of binge-reading High Scalability while working on scaling Ada. I really miss the old vibe! The deep dive into Netflix's transcoding blew my mind—190,000 CPU hours just for one season of Stranger Things! Check out the post if you're curious.

Using zero-knowledge proofs to convert a standard HTLC into the purchase of a secret with arbitrary properties.


I sometimes want to be able to attach a USB disk to my laptop and then pass the entire block device (e.g. /dev/sdb) through to a Virtualbox VM - for example, to do an OS install for a headless system that doesn't have a functioning graphics card. The VirtualBox UI doesn't provide an option to do so, however the VBoxManage command supports creating a virtual hard disk file which is mapped to a specific device path Read more…

I've previously posted as part of a wider blog post , but reposting here to make it easier to find. Mastodon's storage needs can grow over time, especially as more and more external accounts are encountered (leading to additional header images etc).

Der Firlefanz – Wertlos und unsinnig ist er, der Firlefanz. Aber Achtung: Was für manchen völlig unattraktiv ist, findet woanders doch seine Anhänger.

I have not had as many chances to build websites lately because for a little over the past 100 days, I've been in a non-developer role at work. It's not really…

What goes into building a spreadsheet application in Python that runs in the browser? How do you make it launch quickly, and where do you store the cells of data? This week on the show, we speak with Chris Laffra about his project, PySheets, and his book "Communication for Engineers."
