A musician sight-reads a piece when they play it from the sheet music for the first time. Depending on their experience level and the difficulty of the piece, sight-reading can have mixed results. This variability in quality is extended considerably when an entire ensemble attempts to sight-read a piece – key signature changes can be missed, players can miss entrances, etc. While sight-reading is an important skill for musicians, it is no....

This post from Dan is one of the best reads in the past few months for me. He openly talks about instances that he might look like a stupid person, and how it’s benefiting him. I highly recommend reading the full blog post . … I frequently ask questions when there’s something I don’t understand or know, from basic stuff, “what does [some word] mean?” to more subtle stuff. On the flip side, one of the most common failure modes I see wi..

Problem synopsis I’m a huge fan of sqlc’s approach to code generation. I’ve seen sqlc called a reverse ORM , and I really like that moniker. However, as a sqlc newbie, I’m still discovering its edge cases. Today’s edge case is using postgres UPSERT queries with sqlc. The crux is that when upserting, it’s necessary for unique key conflicts to occur so that the UPDATE portion of the query executes. But non-null uuid Go types tend to....

Where to begin! Where to begin… Lets start with a good measure of success, one that I think most engineers could agree on: a from-scratch rebuild of a complex, internal tools app. Success with rebuilds is often fleeting, as many can attest. There’s risk involved. Extending the challenge further, lets assign (most) of the task to a team of platform engineers who aren’t too familiar with modern front-end technology – and then say that we su....

I am speaking about OAuth2 and Open ID Connect with ASP.NET Core 8 at Rome .NET Conference 2024 on March 22 and then, less than a week later, at WebDay 2024 in Milan. I am always particularly excited when I can present the stuff I’m currently working on. Being forced to share as I learn encourages me to go deeper into the topic to reinforce my comprehension and better explain it to the audience—a win-win situation.

Statistics is one of the most confusing, controversial, and depressing disciplines I know. So many different approaches, so many different opinions, so many arguments, so many person-years of wasted time, and so many flawed peer-reviewed papers. What we want from statistics is an easy-to-use tool that would nudge us toward asking the right questions and then straightforwardly guide us on how to design proper and relevant statistical proce....

Hi, Ich muss direkt ein Geständnis machen: Ich bin auf Kriegsfuß mit Kubernetes. Dabei trifft Kubernetes gar keine Schuld. Meine Projekte sind es. Beziehungsweise die Teams, in denen ich mich bewege. Es sind Teams mit maximal 30 Software-Entwicklern, noch ein paar Business-Menschen und Designer oben drauf. Aber es sind nicht soooo viele Entwickler. Diese Teams brauchen kein Kubernetes! Nein. Noch deutlicher: Diese Teams können..

If you’re into either Alfred or Raycast , Josh has a nice comparison of these tools from his experience using them: … for me, in the era of paid subscription software overtaking everything, I don’t need yet another $8–10/month siphon on my bank account. By the time you’ve paid for Raycast Pro for a year, you could’ve paid for Alfred for a lifetime. I absolutely agree. Due to Alfred being a one-time purchase and its wonderful spe..
