It is not a secret that I am a huge fan of Singapore's national libraries. Their selection of books and resources is amazing, with an excellent nation-wide…

I've encountered my first bit of rust dependency hell. I'm trying to use a combination of nom v3.2.1 (a parsing combinator framework) plus nom_pem v1.0.3 (which uses nom to parse the PEM file format) plus der-parser v0.4.4 (which uses nom to parse DER data). This would almost work EXCEPT der-parser has the following line in it's Cargo.toml: nom = {version = "^3.1", features = ["verbose-errors"]} I haven't used feature toggling at all ye....

A review of Agatha Christie's 'And Then There Were None' highlighting the absence of her typical detectives and the prevalence of casual racism in the 1930s.

As Jane Street grows, the quality of the development tools we use matters more and more. We increasingly work on the OCaml compiler itself: adding useful language features, fine-tuning the type system and improving the performance of the generated code. Alongside this, we also work on the surrounding toolchain, developing new tools for profiling, debugging, documentation and build automation.

Hackathons! That’s where you feel super excited about creating something interesting, or useful, or just entertaining. They are a great way to encourage creativity and teamwork. Recently, trivago hosted a Python Hackathon in collaboration with the Python Usergroup Düsseldorf. The event was a full success!

Yet another income report. Well, for this blog, it’s only the second one - my previous one was last year’s end-of-year income report . Income reports still seem to be a popular topic in the blogosphere, although most who do income reports do monthly income reports rather than yearly income reports.

The Competition Part of Cerner’s engineering culture is to celebrate technology. This past fall, we had our annual celebration for Programmers’ Day. We celebrated the day with great food (taco bar and ice cream) and an evening of trivia.

One day, Memcached ran out of free memory. The method `get` failed and all requests went directly to the database. Of course these calls also failed under the huge load, and eventually it caused downtime for the whole trivago website. Yikes!

Another one of those things I need to look up every now and then. Below is a snippet of how to encrypt and decrypt a string using Python and KMS in AWS. The interesting thing is that you don’t need to supply the KMS key alias in the decryption portion. So long as whatever role or key you are using can access the key it should work. For the encryption you can either supply the full ARN of the key or the alias so long as you prefix it with al..

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. Some time ago I created a blog/video series that walked the reader through creating a prototype using the Robot Operating System (ROS) and taking it to production using Ubuntu Core. However, that series was intended more for robotics professionals; it assumed quite a bit of ROS knowledge, and requi..
