The first part of DevAcademy is DevEssentials which covers a lot of the basics new engineers need to know about de..

Turning off a great server from Hetzner with over 1.5k days uptime (4.6 years). It needed an OS “dist upgrade” so I suppose a reboot was in order anyway. Such a shame!

Programming is amazing: we get to draw up a system on a whiteboard, and then we can implement everything, all the way down (if we chose to). We can build significant systems in a matter of weeks. The unique thing here is the range of the stack that we manipulate, there are a lot of hats to be worn by a single human! What other field allows to go from 0’s and 1’s (assembly) to fear-of-heights-inducing-levels-of-abstraction, like a bunch of b..

Thoughtworks has a long-standing and intentional commitment to diversity and inclusivity that is a huge part of our social fabric. As a company, we’re committed to looking beyond age, recognising the maturity, life experience and critical foresight that our employees bring no matter what career or life stage they’re at. There are at times however, industry assumptions that older people have less to offer. That technology is a ‘young person’..

One of the selling points of deploying Istio in your Kubernetes cluster is that it provides mechanisms to enforce authentication between pods communicating with other services within the cluster. The documentation of these leaves a lot to be desired, as we discovered when we first started playing with these features while gearing up to roll out Istio more widely.

About 12 years ago my old man was working as one of those hire a husband/jim’s maintenance deals. This was in the lower Blue Mountains. During my university break I didn’t have much on and would often come with him as something to do. We were attempting to repair a deck of some flea hole house near Glenbrook. The place would have been improved only by a match and petrol. The owner was around and mentioned that the place was to be rented out..

As a data scientist, I am not expected to write clean code as most of what I write is throwaway.” I am a data scientist and I do not identify with this sentiment. I believe that clean code practices apply to the entire team, no matter the role. Let me tell you why - software development does not really need clean code, and neither does it need agile principles. One can craft perfectly working software without either. But, without either mai..

A couple of years ago I wrote about our support for Flamingo which translates static SVG files to Java source files that you can treat as images within Codename One while getting pixel perfect resolution independent results. There were a few minor changes since until a month ago when Steve committed some work to address this RFE . What’s SVG and Why Should I Care? If you’re new to SVG here’s a quick primer. There are two types of ima..

I like Antonio’s idea, a lot. As much as I try to keep my system stock , this will make transferring the scripts and aliases I have accumulated to new machines super easy. A few of my favorite aliases: alias gs="git status" alias gac="git add . && git commit -m" alias gp="git push" I have talked about these aliases before ; they make interacting with Git just a little bit easier. Hat-tip to Ire Aderinokun for the idea . a....

A long weekend just recently passed in NSW Australia. With a larger than normal amount of time on my hands I decided to try out the game Sea of Thieves. Ignoring the fact that the NBN rollout here has ruined my ADSL2+ which has gone from a 18-19 Mbps connection to 3 Mbps and that it took 24 hours to download, what follows is probably one of the more memorable gaming experiences I have ever had.

Cynicism, distrust, skepticism, doubt, disbelief; an inclination to question whether something will happen or whether it is worthwhile; pessimism. At some point in our lives, we find cynics on our environment: “I don’t believe we can do this thing” or “I really think we shouldn’t do that”, “Why bother going and doing it, we are not going to succeed anyway”. If you think about it, there are two voices behind a cynic: the voice of experience,..

Let's have a Zig thread. Post interesting stuff, show your projects or tell everyone what you love or hate about Zig. For those not aware, the Zig programming language is a compiled general-purpose language that basically aims to be a replacement for the C programming language. It removes the bad parts of C, such as undefined behavior and the macro preprocessor, and adds modern programming features that help in writing robust, safe and r..

At Google, our organization designs, owns, and maintains a number of optimization models that automate the planning of Google’s datacenter growth and health. As is pretty standard in supply chain optimization and planning, these models are often integer linear programs. It’s a core competency of operations research, after all. One might think, “Large optimization problems? That sounds hard!” But it’s actually far from the hardest part of th..

A zero. A failure. That was the result of my first pilot run. The launch of my company. After spending few months building an “order on your phone” solution and closing a customer, we had our big day, of getting the product in front of customers. On the first day where our product would be in front users, we got a grand total of zero orders. When the day was over, I had this sinking feeling, of a big failure. What am I doing, am I wasti....
