One of my most enduring works is the Agile Fluency Model, which I created with Diana Larsen.

Download the Brazilian Portuguese version here. Many thanks to Renato Barbieri for creating this translation for us. His book, Uma Breve História da Agilidade , tell..

In a short gap between two jobs, I started working on a simple idea for a creative, multi-modal (text-to-text and text-to-image) AI-based web application. I had been tracking the open-source development of the Spring AI project , and thought it would be the perfect opportunity to evaluate the project for my idea. While life has gotten in the way of my finishing of the project so far (the frontend is essentially non-existent still :skul..

Sometimes it can feel like every business idea you come up with has already been done, but not all the low-hanging fruit has been plucked.

Let's get real. Apparently git is the best tool for versioning and collaborative work. Well, it is true, unless you collaborate with someone else than just yourself, and just use simplest operations like commits and branches to avoid keeping multiple directories of your projects. Trying to clean up history, rebasing without accidentally losing commits because of wrong submodule bump (yeah, you forgot to also rebase them), accidental file d....

Thirty-seven years ago, at about 11 a.m., at the Rocca Brancaleone Park, my then-girlfriend and I kissed for the first time under a tree. We decided immediately not to get together because we were classmates 1 , and we didn’t want to complicate our lives. Right. We have been together ever since and will celebrate our 27th wedding anniversary next week. Our three sons are the fruitful result of that teenage affair.

Open AI just released ChatGPT 4o. The launch demo is available on YouTube , and yes, it is impressive. They did not launch v5, though, and 4o is only incremental, not exponential, as v4 has been compared to its predecessor. It may mean we’re at the end of the “exponential growth” phase of LLM models. However, the most critical aspect of this release is not technical, as Ethan Mollick correctly pinpoints in his timely What Open AI Did p..

This post explores the idea of iteratively mixing mean, median, and geometric mean, inspired by xkcd #2435. In Pragmastat, Center — the Hodges–Lehmann estimator — provides a principled robust location estimate with 95% asymptotic efficiency and a 29% breakdown point, without iteration. Confidence intervals are available via CenterBounds . pragmastat.dev github.com/AndreyAkinshin/pragmastat Let us consider xkcd.com/2435 : ....

Migration projects can be hard, especially when we were not around when the original projects were built. We migrated our images infrastructure to Google Cloud which was spread across multiple environments and here is how we did that.

I read ADHD—A Lifelong Struggle today. It’s the best thing I’ve read on ADHD so far. Its advice is grounded in experience and applies to everyone: those who think ADHD is a crock or, worse, an excuse, those who suffer from it, and those who have family members or friends who suffer from it. And we all punish ourselves. That’s the real tragedy of this illness. We are our biggest detractors because we know what we’re capable of. Better ..

The last time my old man saw the northern lights was 40 years ago. A humbling display that made up for the miles spent trudging through the coast of Norway. Tonight we got to see it together, for 30 minutes. And all we had to do was look outside. I didn’t have time to dig out my old camera and figure out how to actually use it, but my phone’s astrophotography feature isn’t too shabby. It’s not unusual for folk in the north of..
