When The Digital Antiquarian released his System Shock retrospective earlier this year, I was in awe. System Shock was one of my favorite games back in the day, and yes, in the quarrel between id Software’s DOOM and Looking Glass’s System Shock, I was siding with the latter. I was so much more for immersion and storyline than shoot ’em-ups. The Antiquarian article is excellent. If you’re into gaming history or, really, into computer’s his..

I’m not a regular philosophy reader, much less of self-improvement guides. I’m wary of the latter and too ignorant for the former. Yet, theologian Vito Mancuso has intrigued me for some time. I followed his podcast on the “Four Masters of Life” 1 and found it excellent. In it, Mancuso discusses his four tutelary deities: “Socrates, the educator. Buddha, the physician. Confucius, the politician. Jesus, the prophet.” I also listened to som..

Tornadoes are big and scary; and they’re beyond the control of ordinary civilians, so it’s the perfect scenario for helpful government intervention. It’s existential threats like these that remind us why we need governments; but perhaps too it serves as a prompt to consider if we could replace governments with something else.

It’s my first Christmas being a dad. The end of the school semester was unusually stressful; I didn’t have much time or energy to anticipate Christmas. But I’ve felt a marked lack of eagerness for getting presents. That feeling wanes each year—something I’m grateful for—but this year I only felt an eagerness for a time of peace and celebration with my family. Peaceful it has been. My family isn’t perfect. (My baby daughter is about as p....

So… first of all, despite the possibly technical sounding title, this isn't a post on programming, networking, or the like… If you came here expecting that… sorry to disappoint you… This is on my (and actually our) personal takes on nosology, clinical psychology, and psychiatry… It's yet another post I've been wanting to write for a long time… and it might require some further research… Anyway, let's get started. Definitions A condition ....

It's been a year of change at Real Python! The Real Python team has written, edited, curated, illustrated, and produced a mountain of Python articles this year. We also added many new members to the team, updated the site's features, and created new styles of tutorials and projects.

The truth of the matter is this: open source is never going to be perfect (nothing is!). It’s up to us (as community members) to leave things better than we found them, and help improve the state of open source.


I recently had the situation where a Bootstrap application: Worked perfectly on a desktop with a side by side layout Properly wrapped on desktop when the window was resized down to a mobile like form factor Failed to ever wrap on mobile showing just a smaller version of the desktop I puzzled over this quite a bit until I ran a google search for "bootstrap text too small on mobile" which led me to this directive:

Just days away from 2022, we’d like to reflect and recap on the progress Snyk Infrastructure as Code has achieved over the year on the path to becoming the leading developer-first IaC solution on the market.

As we approach the end of 2021, we’re taking a look back at the big new capabilities in each of Snyk’s products, and in this post we’re going to focus on Snyk Container.

I had the situation earlier where commands like: @extends('layouts.master') @section('title', 'Order Submitter LegendBorne Products') @section('content') in my template weren't being processed and this led me to do the normal bit of Google fu, alas, to no avail. And then I looked at the name of my template: order_submitter_index.php Yes – that's right. I was missing the .blade. suffix so a quick rename to: order_submitter..

While 2020 introduced a slew of changes to everyone’s personal and professional lives, these changes were considerably less pronounced for those of us working in tech fields. After all, most software engineering and server/cloud configuration was already performed remotely before the pandemic using long-standing processes/tools. Adapting to online tech teaching in the college was a welcome challenge, and also more relevant for the industry...

I got a MacBook Pro 14" with an Apple M1 Pro SoC, 16GB of memory and 500GB of disk a couple of weeks ago, and wanted to write my impressions about it, since a lot of people ask.
