Brent Ozar’s article below resonates with my post-COVID experience as a conference speaker. From big national and international conferences to local meetups like the one I run, attendance has been dwindling following the hiatus. Of all the proposed reasons, I believe “people switched how they’re learning” is crucial; just think about YouTube, LLMs, and the plethora of free and paid online courses. Why Aren’t People Going to Local and Reg..

This is the story of the world’s most beloved programming language: Python. What began as a side project in Amsterdam during the 1990s became the software powering artificial intelligence, data science and some of the world’s biggest companies. But Python’s future wasn’t certain; at one point it almost disappeared. Python: The Documentary

If you’ve been working with SwiftUI, you’ve likely noticed that your views start pretty simple but then balloon into large, unmaintainable monoliths that are hard to preview and test. While there are several techniques to keep SwiftUI views modular and reusable, some problems are architectural in nature and can only be addressed by following proven ...

Around 2 years ago, I had some time on my hands and got really interested into investing and playing with stock market data. After reading way too many books on the subject, I started building my own tools which led me to creating Itako . It’s a portfolio tracking and data visualization software that lets user journal their stock market transactions, and learn about their portfolio performance and diversification. Itako is now in a stabl....

James Dyer and I both ran into the same workflow snag when fixing source indentation . He explains it best: You’re working in a file with inconsistent indentation You want to fix the entire buffer’s formatting You run C-x h (select all) followed by M-x indent-region Your mark is now at the beginning of the buffer, disrupting your workflow Naturally, this is Emacs and were both able to patch our editor to smoothen things out.

I’ve recently finished reading the cozy fantasy novel Can’t Spell Treason Without Tea . While the weather was too hot to feel warmed by it, I nevertheless enjoyed it. I love me a story with Characters who talk through problems. In fact, my least favourite narrative tropes are where the problems are created by two people, ostensibly who care for eachother, but cannot have even the simplest lowest-level honest conversation.

The first-line treatment for ADHD is stimulants. Everything else in this post works best as a complement to, rather than as an alternative to, stimulant medication. In fact most of the strategies described here, I was only able to execute after starting stimulants. For me, chemistry is the critical node in the tech tree: the todo list, the pomodoro timers, etc., all of that was unlocked by the medication Notes on Managing ADHD

I’ll be honest - I’d never written a GIMP plugin before. I’m also fairly new to Python, having only dabbled with a few small projects. While I’ve been doing development for decades, this was uncharted territory for me. So when I decided to bring Google’s new Gemini 2.5 Flash Image Preview model (nicknamed “Nano Banana”) directly into GIMP, I knew I’d need some help. Enter Claude, to help me fill in the missing knowledge gaps.

I hope there is something that you love to do as much as I love to write. For me, it is the perfect balance of difficult and rewarding. Beth and I went to the Omega Institute earlier this month. While she took a workshop, I had a self-led writing retreat. It was a dream fulfilled. We would arrive at campus by 7:45 a.m. and I would write until 5:30 or 6:00 each evening. I took breaks for lunch, meditated once or twice each day, and ran t....

I had an annoying chatgpt-shell bug where sometimes the compose buffer's svg header would disappear while text was streaming into the Emacs buffer. There are a number of things that could have gone rogue when streaming and post-processing buffer text, so I wasn't quite sure where to start narrowing things down. I had a feeling I could maybe use something like after-change-functions hook to monitor changes, but that only tells me about t....

For a long time I’ve had this goal of getting into Linux Kernel development. After a lot of trial and error, and with the help of a friend of mine who agreed to mentor me in the process, I finally did it.

It is perhaps a truism that to love is to acknowledge the inevitability of loss. Either by time or circumstances, all that you love will be lost. People will change, depart, die, eventually become dust. Nothing lasts, and we will lose all that we love. But still we love anyway. This has been on my … Continue reading "Loss as the Price of Love"
