I started the NYC Systems Coffee Club in December of 2023. It's gone pretty well! I regularly get around 20 people each month. You bring a drink if you feel like it and you hang out with people for an hour or two. There is no agenda, there is no speaker, there is no structure. The only "structure" is that when the circle of people talking to each other seems gets too big, I break the circle up into two smaller circles so we can get more....

I recently bought an ST NUCLEO-L432KC , a small dev board with an STM32L432KC , a Cortex-M4 micro-controller designed for ultra-low-power applications. 1 These STM32 MCUs come with a proprietary tool for code generation called STM32CubeMX, unfortunately my experience with it was very poor so to speak: I couldn’t even generate a functioning base project for this board. 2 Since ST doesn’t provide ready to use template projects I had....

I've wanted a more recognizable online "brand" for years. I took a stab at creating something myself a few times, but was never satisfied with what I came up with so I finally asked a friend to design a logo for me. The process was delightful and I'm very happy with the results.

Recently, an Amiga 500 in generally good condition found its way to me. It’s my first Amiga ever, because back in the day I was loyal to Commodore’s 8-bitters for a long time.

I was shocked to discover last week that Noah Gibbs had passed away . Memories are being collected for his family here . I thought I would share mine here as well. “ My recollection of Noah is of a kind generous man who contributed tirelessly to the things he believed in. I first encountered Noah after I gave a conference talk calling for better benchmarks in the Ruby community. At the time I was working on a doomed Ruby JIT....

2024 felt more like a proper year than the last . Amol Rajan casually dropped the sickest sample known to man , internet rapper Viper got arrested for kidnapping, then an ITV drama brought the Post Office Horizon scandal to the front of public consciousness making us all wish there were TV dramas about everything else wrong with the country. Willy’s Chocolate Experience took the world by storm with how hilariously abysmal it was. It....

Every year Jesus’ parents went to Jerusalem for the Passover festival.

(In whatever way you interpret that question).” […]

The Cerakey Nada 65 Panda is the world’s first keyboard featuring ceramic keycaps, designed to deliver the smoothest and thockiest typing possible. When I first heard about it, I knew I had to try it - the promise of ceramic keycaps was too intriguing to pass up. The keyboard arrived in beautiful packaging, and the build quality exceeded my expectations.

The amount of JavaScript you ship to your users directly impacts your site’s performance. A smaller bundle size means faster initial loading times and an overall snappier experience for end users. In this post, I’ll show you how to analyze your SvelteKit bundle size and optimize it by moving heavy dependencies to the server. Analyzing Bundle Sizes Before we start, let’s set up a tool to visualize our bundle sizes. We’ll use rollup-plugin-vi..

We had our fourth short story fika yesterday. This time, the theme was ‘duty’ and the stories featured were: The Sniper by Liam O’Flaherty The Lottery by Shirley Jackson The Veldt by Ray Bradbury It was just three of us this time, and we had a great chat about the duties and sacrifices of war, the questioning (or lack thereof) of outdated traditions, and the costs of our increasing reliance on automation in daily life.

Later on, in a "Multiple cursors - how and why?" Reddit post , I showcased the overlay usage. Peter Oliver asked if the package could be submitted to MELPA . To my delight, he also volunteered to take on the submission . Unfortunately..

Last year, I noticed that routine programming no longer brought me the same joy it did decades ago. So, my New Year’s resolution was to engage in more “useless” programming – coding small, fun projects without any specific end goal in mind. Of all the possible topics, the one that captivated me throughout the year was retrocomputing. I didn’t have a computer until I was 14, but I remember seeing grey 8-bit machines at school or friends' hou..

This is a good read from Steves String. I discovered this blog from a youtube channel called Internet of Bugs. The post completely changes the way we think about productivity and work, especially when your are at the other end of your 30s. The post discusses about how it’s not feasible to work for long hours without any interruption. It’s not just about the physical health, but also about the mental health.
