Hello, everyone! Recently I've been working a lot with Node and I felt the urgent need to write a blog post about how to write good API tests. In those tests, all I do is send a request to an insta...

matthew_butler · by the sound, near the sea-wall Inspired by Stephen Pollington’s translation of an Exeter Book riddle in Runes: Literacy in the Germanic Iron Age, this sound piece uses dadaists poem fragments to imagine a fictional Immanuel Kant discovering what it might mean to know the ultimate Reality. I was by the sound, near […]

Edit: looking back at this post from a few years back, it does look incredibly naive but still leaving this up - still a a few good links Back in the (not-so-distant) days, if you wanted to have some online software — to manage your invoices or your customers — or any kind of business management solution — you had to have your own servers for your company and install-and-configure the hell out of it.

When I talk to people about the Internet – the first reaction is always : “Yes! Today you have no choice”. Then when I dig a little deeper – you hear the real stories. The “Yes… but…” – not in our industry – people are not buying online really – the market is not ready – it is still early So first, who is connected? Look, in case you haven’t noticed but everyone is.

UPDATE: I’m leaving this series up for historical purposes, but please note that I no longer recommend Ubuntu Core or snaps for use in robotics. My background is pretty heavily littered with robotics. A natural side effect of this is that I’ve published numerous posts discussing snaps, Ubuntu Core, and different robotics frameworks (ROS and MOOS specifically). But my robotics experience was professional, which meant I didn’t really have a r..

Abstract When using a firewall system like IPFW to detect threats, the system can end up doing a lot of packet processing. This can negatively impact performance-sensitive systems such as storage nodes in data centers. This paper describes a practical solution to this problem using a load-weighted probabilistic mechanism that …

Abstract YouTube videos are categorized into a number of classes such as music, entertainment, sports. This paper will explore how these categories are related, how strongly they are related, and the techniques used to gain this information. Data mining, graph analysis, and visualization techniques will be leveraged to accomplish this …

At Cerner, we use Chef. In fact, we’re heavily ingrained with Chef in our configuration management practices. We deploy services from Tomcat to Kafka with Chef. Even the first open source project we announced was a tool for Chef! With all of this integration with Chef, we need a simple way to manage all of those versions. This is where the Version Databag cookbook comes in. At a high level, this cookbook allows us to define our versions in ..

The purpose of this article is to document a minor frustration I ran into at work a few weeks ago, in the hopes that somebody else with the same issue will stumble across it. If I can save another poor soul some time, then it will be well worth writing this.

If you wanted a fast computer back in 1976, you bought the 5.5 ton, $9 million Cray-1 made by Cray Research. The Cray-1 was dubbed the first supercomputer as it was designed to be much faster than other (more massive) computers of the time. It was incredibly successful in the large computing space and Cray subsequently released a much faster model called the Cray X-MP in 1983 (shown in the picture at the top of this post). By today’s st..

I needed to compute timestamps representing the start and end of "last month" so I could build a URL needed to generate an invoicing report. Because the URL uses actual dates, I can't just bookmark it since it changes every month. Python has a lot of date and time management capabilities, but finding the one that is going to get the job done correctly and succinctly is actually harder than the code itself. With that in mind, here's essent....

At work there is a tradition of a Friday quiz being posted by the winner of the previous week. I missed out on the most recent one due to having to duck off early to do my tax but the problem was rather an interesting one. The challange itself is not as simple as you would initally think and taken from a 2015 IBM Ponder This https://www.research.ibm.com/haifa/ponderthis/challenges/May2015.html

When writing object-oriented code, you frequently want a constructor that takes in values and assigns them to object fields. Some languages reduce the repetition required for this.

Alone on a Friday night, in need of some inspiration, you decide to relive some of your past programming conquests. The old archive hard drive slowly spins up, and the source code of the glory days scrolls by... Oh no. This is not at all what you expected. Were things really this bad? Why did no one tell you? Why were you like this? Is it even possible to have that many gotos in a single function? You quickly close the project. Fo..

The other week a paper was released that reported that about 37% of sites included at least one JavaScript library with a known vulnerability. We ran our own test and discovered that the reality is much worse—76.6% of sites were using at least one vulnerable library.

I’m tired of having the same conversation over and over again with people so I figured I would put it into a blog post. Many people ask me if I have tried or what I think of Solaris Zones / BSD Jails. The answer is simply: I have tried them and I definitely like them. The conversation then heads towards them telling me how Zones and Jails are far superior to containers and that I should basically just give up with Linux containers and use....
