Macros are tricky beasts. Most languages—if they have macros at all—usually include a huge “here there be dragons” warning to warn curious would-be macro programmers of the dangers that lurk ahead. What is it about macros that makes them so dangerous and unwieldy? That’s difficult to answer in general: there are many different macro systems with varying degrees of ease-of-use. Moreover, making macros easy to use safely is an open area of ....

There are a number of blogs and serials that I really enjoy reading and (where available), I've tended to subscribe to their RSS feeds using Nextcloud News . What I've noticed though, is that, amongst everything else I do on my phone, the new article notifications do tend to get lost. The result is that I quite often don't notice that a new post has been published unless I happen to see someone else toot it into the fediverse (for exampl....

I recently redid the DNS on my home network, moving from dnsmasq to Unbound and NSD . Unbound acts as the DNS server the network uses, and Unbound hosts losts local zones for my search domains. For reasons, this is really across two sites: our home, and a barn we own a few miles away. Because I am a dork, I have things at both sites :-) My network controller has a built in DNS server which assigns a local domain, a la brians-laptop.l....

That one boring Saturday I wanted to learn something more about agents and thought it would be a really cool idea to “unfinalize” java.lang.String. I started working on the project, developed simple transformer: if (name.equals("java/lang/String")) { ClassPool classPool = ClassPool.getDefault(); final CtClass ctClass; try { ctClass = classPool.get(name.replace("/", ".")); } catch (NotFoundException e) { throw new RuntimeException(e); } int ..

A Java project with published container image that contains intentionally leaky native code to observe symptoms of a memory leak in Java in podman/docker or Kubernetes. Native code intentionally “leaks” provided number of megabytes in a loop. The project runs by default with -XX:NativeMemoryTracking=summary enabled. I wanted to observe how JVM will report native memory, crash and what pod and JVM metrics will look like. Java doesn’t allocat..

I cannot let 2023 go past without writing anything given it is 20 years of this blog, but an update to Hugo broke things, and getting it to work was just annoying.

Along the way I took a moment to add all the posts from my original blosxom based blog to the archive , which makes me happy. Really, I want to pos..

Today, I (re)learned how to serialize an XML to a UTF-8 string. Like all the other times I did this, I got backstabbed by StringWriter, which only supports UTF-16. A simple code snippet like this: await using var sw = new StringWriter(); await using var w = XmlWriter.Create(sw, new() { Async = true }); ... await w.FlushAsync(); return sw.ToString(); Will emit this output:
