License: Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 _International Public License (CC BY-NC-ND _4.0) Notes are a great way to write things down. But as you start writing more notes, the number obviously keeps increasing. This leads to having a large number of notes which are outdated or forgotten. This is mainly because these are seperate notes and not connected with the other notes in anyway. So as humans, we forget....

HTML 5 added a set of new HTML tags known as "semantic" tags to better structure websites. You should use them to avoid sinking in chaos with many levels of nested divs. They also have the benefit to make your website more accessible.

I recently had to setup an NGINX server to serve a directory of files for processing via an AWS Lambda function. And while there are other ways to do this, NGINX offered an easy, convenient way to do this albeit at the cost of some configuration. The trick to this is the autoindex on directive but it needs to exist in the right place in your overall NGINX configuration. My operating system was: Ubuntu Linux 18 Nginx version: nginx/1.....

An analogy occurred to me this evening as I was thinking about programming language design: Choosing good keywords and function names is like picking a good font; the ideas conveyed may be the same, but a change can drastically impact legibility and enjoyment of use. PHP does a spectacular job of providing a bad example. It’s like the Comic Sans of programming languages. Now there are many reasons why PHP is not a good language —....

Planning to write a book about Web Scraping in Python. Click here to give your feedback I have been covering web scraping for a long time on this blog for a long time but they were mostly in Python; be it requests, Selenium or Scrapy framework, all were based on Python language but scraping is not limited to a specific language. Any language that provides APIs or libraries for an Http client and HTML parser is able to provide you web scrapi....

Unicode support in my experience seems to be one of those hand wavy things where most people respond to the question of “Do you support unicode?” with Yeah we support emojis, so yes we support unicode! 😃😭😈 Which is partially correct… It’s certainly a good start. However unicode is more than emojis. So lets take a step back. What is unicode? It’s actually easy to explain, here it is taken from the wiki page “A standard for represen..

Introduction Link to heading This post is about a project to generate wav files with a neural network. These are files with the audio in the waveform domain, i.e. as sound samples such as that which might be converted to mp3 files. I had hoped to be able to generate some form of music, but both training and generation are proving too processor intensive at the moment, so I’m going to write up what I have for the time being and p..

DBCore can now generate a TypeScript/React CRUD UI that is automatically hooked up to the generated REST API (in Go). The UI has full support for login, viewing (and filtering), editing, and creating database entities. PostgreSQL, SQLite and MySQL are supported. How to use? The goal of this project is primarily to provide as much useful boilerplate as possible for full-stack applications. The system is probably not sufficient to be an....

You know what I’m like when I’m sick: I’d sooner curse than cry. And people don’t often know what they’re saying in the end. Or I could die in my sleep. So I’ll say it now. Here it is. Don’t pay any attention if I don’t get it right when it is for real. Blame that on terror and pain or the stuff they’re shooting into my veins. This is what I wanted to sign off with. Bend closer, listen, I love you.

I have wanted a 3D printer for a very long time. I hope you can tell from my ACM Queue column that I like to do a lot of research and I tend to want the best thing. I had been keeping my eyes on the 3D printer product space for quite some time. This article is going to go over the technical details behind 3D printing as well as my experience with two different products. When I finally decided to buy a 3D printer, I wanted to try ones th....

After being a strong believer in the many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics for years, I have now completely changed my mind. Many-worlds is seriously flawed, and the good old Copenhagen interpretation is not so bad. Specifically, the correct interpretation of quantum mechanics is the Von Neumann-Wigner interpretation, a flavor of Copenhagen that puts the Heisenberg … Continue reading "Quantum mechanics explained"

Have you wanted to work with PDF files in Python? Maybe you want to extract text, merge and concatenate files, or even create PDFs from scratch. Are you interested in building hardware projects using a Raspberry Pi? This week on the show we have David Amos from the Real Python team to discuss his recent article on working with PDFs. David also brings a few other articles from the wider Python community for us to discuss.

I’ve started this website with the Beautiful Hugo theme. At that point in time I was learning how Hugo works. I knew I wanted to design my own theme, only because I like customizing and designing. The theme I’m currently using was designed and written by me. I’m not a web developer so it’s not professional quality. It’s made by me - that’s what matters. I’ve never implemented a comments system in my own theme. That has recently changed!..

How to raise the quality of your libraries to a professional level As your product grows and matures, your design team will be faced with new challenges. New people need to design new screens using new components. Conventions become rules. Novices become experts. And your team’s Sketch skills have to keep up. In this article, we’ll explore a few techniques that will help you raise the quality of your Sketch files to a professional level. Wh..

When developing REST API projects or CLI Applications with Node.js, it is very common to use the open source npm dependency package manager to include frameworks and tools in these projects. To a certain extent, this is beneficial as it can help us reduce development time. Including stable packages that are well tested and maintained by the community, serves certain needs for our project. However, it can also turn against us and be a proble..
