Am I a good programmer? The short answer is: I don’t know what that means. I have been programming for 52 years now, having started in a public high school class in 1973, which is pretty rare because few high schools offered such an opportunity back then. I

I dag så jeg noen fine og fargerike blomster på en spasertur (faktisk en litt lengre Pokemon Go-tur med guttene mine). Tankene mine går fra å beundre de fine blomstene, til å undre seg over hvilke dominante farger som jeg ser. Heldigvis er det lett å finne de med verktøy, jeg har mitt eget – […]

Just sent this letter to the ministers of the environment for Canada and Alberta, as well to the Minister of Artificial Intelligence and Digital Innovation. Honourable Ministers, The momentous rise of AI has many people wanting to build data centres. While I personally am skeptical of the long term impact in terms of jobs, even if you take claims at face value it is incredibly important that we not let a burgeoning industry push us bac....

macOS apps typically benefit from built-in voice dictation input (included as a macOS freebie), with little to no additional work required from app developers. Emacs had supported this capability until relatively recently, when we began seeing reports that dictation was no longer available as of Emacs 30 . While I have no direct experience with macOS dictation-related APIs, I bisected Emacs 30 changes affecting macOS-related code (t....

So I managed to get myself into a sticky situation with JJ where I had squashed together a whole bunch of crappy commits with the intention of then taking the large one and cutting it apart. So I squashed, rebased, then started cutting it apart... only to realize that I had goofed a bit on my squash and included an experimental change I didn’t want to be part of the original commit. So now what. I tried a few things that ultimately didn’t....

The second installment of the Earthsea series, I enjoyed this book about as much as A Wizard of Earthsea . Le Guin puts a lot of effort into fleshing out the world of Earthsea, but unlike other fantasy worlds, she’s doing it through the eyes of her characters rather than through exposition or lore dumps. Ged, the protagonist of book one , and Arha, the protagonist of this book, grew up in completely different circumstances. They see t..

On Monday, July 14th 2025, I hosted a mini-workshop on homomorphic encryption at Google’s Portland, Oregon office. Though Portland is a small city, it’s becoming a hub for homomorphic encryption. Intel and Google both have a presence here, as well as the hardware startup Niobium, and a few individuals from other companies who happen to be based here. Since I had been having lunch with various subsets of the community, I figured it was about..

Following on from yesterday‘s post about the size insanity of these new AI machine clusters , I went looking for a picture of the render farm we had at JHCS . I knew I had one somewhere. I eventually found it in an old slide deck I put together documenting the render pipeline. The resolution is terrible because I think I must have been using my Motorolla V3‘s camera, which was the best we had at the time. It wasn‘t on my old Flickr accoun....

Updated 7/25/2025. Originally published 12/10/2024 Ambiguity in design isn’t a roadblock — it’s an opportunity. Design ingenuity thrives in the gray area where rules haven’t been written, and solutions are waiting to be discovered. So how do you turn “I have no idea where to start” into breakthrough ideas that actually work? At 8th Light, our approach is anchored in the three pillars of human-centered design: viability, feasibilit....

Exponential backoff with jitter is an effective retry strategy that helps avoid thundering herds, but most implementations only start applying jitter after the initial request fails. If you’re using a library which is implemented that way, then your workload might still be vulnerable to thundering herd problems. Exponential backoff is a retry strategy where failed requests are retried after increasingly long delays (e.g. 100ms, 200ms, ..

While I missed Emacs Carnival 's Take two , with this month's prompt being Writing Experience , I figured I may have a thing or two to share about my Org adoption. Org mode is often regarded as one of the indispensable Emacs features. A Swiss army of sorts enabling outlining, presentations, task management, agenda, note-taking, blogging, literate programming, the list goes on… At its core, Org features are powered by a versatile ....

This blog recently got a nice new feature, a recommended reading section (you can find the one for this blog post at the bottom of the text). From a visual perspective, it isn’t much. Here is what it looks like for the RavenDB 7.1 release announcement : At least, that is what it shows right now. The beauty of the feature is that this isn’t something that is just done, it is a much bigger feature than that. Let me try to explain it in ....
