if i’ve been silent as of late, it’s because i’ve been furiously coding away. i’ve got what i think are some elegant implementations cooking, and with any luck my extra work will pay off in hours and days and months of time saved down the road. i’ve got a few interesting (interesting with respect to your average rating of the blog posts on this site) posts cooking in my mind, and hopefully they’ll appear shortly!

Facebook is where I have more noise than any other social site, twitter may even tie facebook at amount of sheer content I receive in my feed. With regards to the ratio of what I care about to what I see facebook is a lot better, due to their news feed versus live feed. However, their news feed is still very often off. I wrote some time back about web 3.0, and how essentially showing what I want to see is what the web will become. You’ll ta....

I often encounter people whether at my office or at other places of employment that are distraught after getting an earful from a manager from some problem arising. The problem usually isn’t in their control, and therefore they don’t understand why they get heat for this. Most managers though do actually understand when issues come up, however what they don’t appreciate is late notice, lack of problem solving, and dictating what should be d....

In my previous blog post, I discussed how git is distinctive among version control system in the way in which it makes the backend model that is being used to store data the most important element of the tool, and that experts use it by having the complete model in their head, and thinking in terms of operations on this object model, rather than just in terms of knowing specific commands to accomplish specific tasks.

I have a tendency of really latching onto very simple ideas. Typically these ideas don’t require complex engineering to make them happen. This is not to say the engineering is not important, but more so that it is some variation of engineering feats that have been done before. The reason I tend to like these over more complex engineering that really makes something better is that making something better is typically a marginal improvement. ....

Yesterday we had a success disaster. An überpopular mashup album that mixed the Wu Tang Clan and The Beatles was released a few days ago and yesterday it got stumbled upon and boing boinged and tweeted to the four winds. Our downloads per minute went through the roof. We’ve dealt with big releases in the […]

Imagine writing an online shop with different types of products. Normally all products would have common attributes such as title and price. Some attributes will likely differ. Tee may have size such as S, M, or L, while a Pen could have an ink_color. It’s easy to see that Tee is a Product, and so is Pen. We are looking at an is_a relationship. When I program this type of relationship I usually use inheritance. class Product < Activ....



The web is becoming saturated. It’s no longer the pimply faced 20 somethings living in their mom’s basements that are the key users and the source of most of the traffic on the web. Now you have communities for pregnant moms, sites for elderly widows looking to date, and social sites for kids from the time they’re able to talk. So now that the web is hitting its saturation point of types of people interacting it becomes a critical issue to ....

I’ve been helping a number of people get started working with git over the last couple of weeks, as Ksplice has brought on some new interns, and we’ve had to get them up to speed on our internal git repositories. (As you might expect from a bunch of kernel hackers, we use git for absolutely everything). While that experience is what prompted this post, it wasn’t really anything I haven’t seen before as SIPB transitioned from a group that mo..
