As mentioned earlier , I am implementing a SaaS-base to be reused for every project idea I have and that makes it through the meat grinder. If you start building something without a clearly defined scope, you will find it very hard to stop and succumb to feature creep . So let’s define the scope an MVP for a Micro SaaS should have. We have one general area of code that’s always needed in a new project:

The San Francisco Chronicle charges for subscriptions. How much does a subscription cost? This is an impossible question to answer, even for current subscribers. The Chronicle advertises several different prices for new subscribers. The only public information the Chronicle shares about its permanent subscription rates raises more questions than answers. No one at the Chronicle […]

Introduction A blockchain is an integrated solution of different computer science problems in the form of a single, append-only , publicly available, transparent , and cryptographically auditable database that runs in a distributed and decentralized environment. I’ve heard many times that blockchain is a technology looking for a problem to solve. I disagree with that assessment because the tech and computer science behind blockchain ha..

I find myself building a new application, Cartazzi, and since the "template app" I'm building from uses Rails Test not rspec, I'm back to the past using the native rails testing framework – something I probably last touched by in 2009. This blog post summarizes different Rails testing examples and is a work in progress as I come up with new examples. Thinks I Like About Rails Test It is fast Have I mentioned it is fast It is so, so fast....

The only purpose of a plan is to ensure better results, it has no value in itself. And as James wrote, we must know what to overlook, as sometimes it is better to have no plan at all.” I value knowledge and being able to respond or adapt when it’s needed over obsessive planning of details that will be wrong the second you get to working on something. Many people are able to adapt and figure out the details for themselves — maybe not in th..

The Chromium team is planning on phasing out Manifest V2, its current set of extension APIs, in favor of Manifest V3. Manifest V3 involves giving extensions less access to page contents. Instead, extensions use new APIs that involve giving the browser simple instructions for page modification. The browser performs those instructions using its own logic; extensions themselves can’t access page contents. This represents a tremendous trade....

Let’s consider the following dynamical system: $$ \begin{cases} \dot{x}_1 = f(x_3) - x_1,\\ \dot{x}_2 = f(x_1) - x_2,\\ \dot{x}_3 = f(x_2) - x_3, \end{cases} $$ where $f(x) = \alpha / (1+x^m)$ is a Hill function. In this case study, we explore the phase portrait of this system for $\alpha = 18,\; m = 3$.

A couple of months ago, I bought the PiccoloCane Tanto2 pet stroller for the cats. I originally ordered the slightly more compact and elegant Carino2, but after it arrived it was obvious that it was too small for both of my cats. I exchanged it for the bulkier, but more roomy forest green Tanto2.

The asset pipeline is the component of Rails that I, well, let me quote myself from a recent email: I've been tracking down that crazy image related issue for an age now and I think I just got it. Every single time it is always the damn asset pipeline (this is the one component in Rails that I have a literal deep and abiding hatred for; it is finicky code and instead of sticking with a solution they keep replacing it which I have the d....

What do you do when your data science project doesn't fit within your computer's memory? One solution is to distribute it across multiple worker machines. This week on the show, Guido Imperiale from Coiled talks about Dask and managing large data science projects through distributed computing.

Being enrolled in a study should require prior informed consent. Terms of the data collection, including what data can be collected and how that data will be used, must be presented to all participants in language they can understand. Only then can they provide informed consent. Harvesting data without permission is just exploitation. Software improvements and user engagement are not more important than basic respect for user agency. Mo..

I was referring to crawlers that build indexes for search engines to use. DuckDuckGo does have a crawler—DuckDuckBot—but it’s only used for fetching favicons and scraping certain sites for infoboxes (“instant answers”, the fancy widgets next to/above the classic link results). DuckDuckGo and other engines that use Bing’s commercial API have contractual arrangements that typically include a clause that says something like “don’t you dare c....

The only engines I know of that run JavaScript are Google, Bing, and maybe Petal. None of the other engines in my list appear to support it. I don’t even think Yandex does. It’s common practice for sites to give a JavaScript-lite version to search engines, though if the content differs heavily you run the risk of hitting a manual action. I’d imagine that search-crawler-exclusive editions would become the norm if crawlers stopped handling ..
