New Service, Matrix-static ~cobra Sun, 20 Nov 2022 I set up matrix-static on ~vern. It’s the software that is used on view.matrix.org. I don’t like the centralization of Matrix, so public rooms on ~vern can be found via mvw.vern.cc. There isn’t much else to say about matrix-static.

A cat taking a compilers course. Credit: katiebcartoons.com. I got carried away with that title, sorry. I wrapped up David Beazley’s week-long compilers course yesterday and it was a total hoot. If you’ve been considering taking this course, I want to share my (lovely) experience and what you can expect from it. David’s compilers class is an intense, hands-on primer to implementing a programming language. Over five days, we built an interpr..

I'm currently taking the Deep Learning nano degree offered by Udacity to deepen my knowledge of modern Machine Learning and Deep Learning. The course walks through the basics of ML and introduces PyTorch and will require knowledge of it in later stages. This post will be short and

There’s regular hiking, and then there’s Antarctica hiking. Check out brr’s report of a Sunday’s hike from McMurdo’s base up to the tip of Castle Rock, with spectacular views of Mount Erebus and the surroundings. brr’s Antarticta blog is a recent addition to my RSS feed collection. It’s always interesting to follow people living and working in the most remote parts of the world.

This article demonstrates how to configure TLS/SSL certificates with the Ingress controller in Kubernetes. We'll set up an NGINX Ingress controller, create a self-signed SSL/TLS certificate, create the necessary rules to link the SSL/TLS certificate to the controller, and hook it up to a Kubernetes sample app service.

Computations that differentiate, debug, and document themselves

One of the problems we wrestle with at Jane Street is how to understand and manage the costs associated with the positions we hold: things like margin, financing costs, market risk, regulatory capital requirements, and so on. To that end, we’ve built systems that estimate these costs and propose ways to reduce them. Essentially, this is a numerical optimization problem.

I had a friend ask me what continuations are, and why they’re useful. There’s a ton of literature about continuations; this is just a simple example meant to showcase something small and hopefully grokkable. You will need to understand a little bit of Racket , but if you know any Scheme , that should be good enough. If you just want a quick primer, check out Learn X in Y minutes for Racket . #lang racket ;;; Export ....

A self-attention block depicted as a neural network. In this post I will describe the attention mechanism, commonly used in transformers, a popular neural language architecture. Most of the most well-known large language models of late are based on the transformer architecture. Attention was first described in Attention is All You Need by Vaswani et al. What is attention? At a high level, attention is a mechanism for neural networks..

I just read a reddit post. It was about someone’s colleague who writes complex code over simple code. Unnecessarily I should add. At least as per the post. But that is when it struck me. The reason for writing simple code is the same as it is for simple writing. One of the best advices I got about writing was to write simple. You write simple and consumable sentences instead of using fancy words and complex sentences. This helps more read....

I spent the last week working from Tbilisi, Georgia and want to share what I experienced and where I could work and couldn’t. It’s not very easy to find a good place to work sadly. The friendliness from people working at coffee places and hotels leaves somewhat to be desired, sadly. I’m not quite sure yet it it’s their communication style or if it’s because I’m a foreigner (and might be mistaken for a russian somehow?).
