Since at least the 1980s I've kept a (very intermittent) dream journal in various forms, including dedicated paper notebooks notes or drawings in sketchbooks fragments of entries in daily Org Mode diary pages individual iCloud Notes, one per dream a single, dedicated Org Mode file. Lately I thought it might be interesting to review these and possibly use them as ideas for artworks, and I've found last format to be most amenable to lat....

Warning: This Diatribe was written in anger, but contains grains of truth Around a year ago, I decided to shutdown my self-hosted email service after running it for about ten years. My choice in doing such was simply cost related - for the scale of email I was processing, it was not viable to run my own servers to do as such, accounting for time in maintenance and ensuring deliverability. At the time, Skiff mail had been around for around..

C++ STL strings bring 20,000+ lines of code to every compilation, yet remain slower than LibC and error-prone. StringZilla offers a faster, more intuitive alternative.

Looking through this list, I read an incredibly good set of books this year. In each of my annual “books read” posts I try to pick the best or most impactful one, and this year is very hard. It’s the first full year of my sabbatical, so I delved deeper into non-fiction topics, many of […]

Soon our local hackerspace Toolbox Bodensee has its 10-year anniversary , and it will also be present at the IBO fair 2024 in Friedrichshafen . Some five or six years ago I already prepared a small setup at one of the Toolbox open-door-days with an oscilloscope and a laptop playing Jerobeam Fendersons Oscilloscope Music . But it never looked quite right. So I decided to tackle the topic again this year. ....

The other day, I noticed our bathroom sink was slow to drain: although the stopper was fully open, standing water was just trickling down. I peek inside the drain and saw some hair sticking out - aha! It's easy enough to dissemble the stopper (with the help of this instructional guide ), and quickly I am rewarded with a surprisingly large wad of soapy hair. Triumphant, I reassemble the stopper and run the tap full-blast. Water flies do....

I always hesitated to deploy an extra tool for user management and SSO, but the current state of the web makes it very difficult to keep up with security, CVEs etc. Why not trust one of the longest standing solutions for identity and access management? Keycloak is open source, interoperable with major SSO protocols (OpenID Connect (OIDC), OAuth 2.0, SAML), and robust. The setup with docker compose is not complicated, but it was not straight..

Technically, The New Yorker’s Baruch Spinoza and the Art of Thinking in Dangerous Times reviews a book on Spinoza. It is so well conceived that it also offers a practical primer on the philosopher’s thoughts on God, nature, democracy, religion and their interaction. A few steps into his public philosopher career, Spinoza found himself exiled from his Jewish community in Amsterdam. That made him cautious and adept at avoiding an even wor..

Recently I ran into a situation where it was necessary to capture the output of a Java process on the stdout stream, and at the same time a filtered subset of the output in a log file. The former, so that the output gets picked up by the Kubernetes logging infrastructure. The letter for further processing on our end: we were looking to detect when the JVM stops due to an OutOfMemoryError, passing on that information to some error classifier..

Over the last year, as a person with a hardware background, I have heard a lot of complaints about Nvidia's dominance of the machine learning market and whether I can build chips to make the situation better. While the amount of money I would expect it to take is less than $7 trillion , hardware accelerating this wave of AI will be a very tough problem--much tougher than the last wave focused on CNNs--and there is a good reason that Nvidi..

Today I learned that GitHub wikis are not editable online and do not support pull requests . You can clone and edit a wiki locally but not return your change to the original repository. I don’t use wikis in my projects ; I prefer documentation to stay with the project, usually in a dedicated directory, and publish it on a dedicated site through GitHub Pages. But today was different as I opened a pull request for PaperMod, the Hugo the..

People living in remote Indigenous communities are as happy as those in wealthy developed countries despite having “very little money”, according to new scientific research that could challenge the widely held perception that “money buys happiness”. Researchers who interviewed 2,966 people in 19 Indigenous and local communities across the world found that on average they were as happy – if not happier – as the average person in high-in..
