In July, the Free Software Foundation (FSF) put out a call for whitepapers about the “philosophical and legal questions” around GitHub’s Copilot . I wanted to write one, but decided not to until encouraged to do so by an employee of the FSF. By that time, I only had five days to write it, so the paper ended being subpar, but I got it in. As to be expected, my paper was not chosen for publication, and I don’t blame them. However, I ..

Warren “Doc” Bayley was a man of the people. When he and his wife Judy opened their Las Vegas resort in 1956, Bayley had no plans to compete with the flashier, corporate casinos at the center of the Strip. Instead, the Hacienda Hotel catered to families, as well as to locals who wanted a night out minus the tourists. When connoisseurs sneered, “You can either go to Las Vegas or to the Hacienda,” Bayley embraced the distinction with pride, a....

In this introduction to classical music, Jan Swafford explains the different musical periods and their differences. Each period has its introductory chapter, followed by chapters dedicated to the most influential composers of the era. The choice is comprehensive and well cared for, with the most relevant names well-investigated both in biography and works. For each composer, Swafford also offers some listening suggestions. Biographies thick..

Into the over world from the underworld! The mulberries were grown in the basement for the majority of their existence and now are able to live in the outside for the first time. In this grow journal I’ll write about my experience bring the red mulberries into the outside and growing them over summer.

Update: the estimator accuracy could be improved using a bunch of patches . The P² quantile estimator is a sequential estimator that uses $O(1)$ memory. Thus, for the given sequence of numbers, it allows estimating quantiles without storing values. I already wrote a blog post about this approach and added its implementation in perfolizer . Recently, I got a bug report that revealed a flaw of the original paper . In this post, I’..

Comments Continuous frustration Continuous integration and deployment systems have gone through a lot of changes. What started as shared bash scripts and Makefiles changed into central systems that could be shared by multiple developers and teams. This shift allows for more repeatable, scalable, and more secure systems. As systems optimize globally they can negatively impact local optimizations. This is a usually a win for an organizatio..

In battle, do not think you have to win. Think rather that you do not have to lose. Ginchin Funakoshi, founder of Shotokan karate-do We may be rarely if at all involved in battles today, but “games” are all around us, and every interaction we participate in can be thought of as a game, with its own rules, frameworks, and expectations about the participants. Such games exist in negotiations, relationships, and other interactions.....

There has been a bit of discussion over on Gemini recently regarding poorly behaved bots. I feel I need to add some perspective from the other side; as a bot operator (even though I don’t operate Gemini bots). Writing a web spider is pretty easy on paper. You have your standards, and you can test against your own servers to make sure it behaves before you let it loose. You probably don’t want to pound the server into silicon dust, so yo..

Back in the 1990s, Reduced Instruction Set Computing (RISC) architecture was widely seen as the future. UNIX workstations from Silicon Graphics and Sun Microsystems boasted powerful RISC CPUs at the time, but were prohibitively expensive and died out in the early 2000s as a result. Only the Acorn RISC Machine (ARM) architecture used in low-power devices (e.g. PDAs) survived past the early 2000s, and only because of the rise of mobil..

Exploring PL/pgSQL: Strings, arrays, recursion, and parsing JSON

Next in exploring PL/pgSQL: Implementing a Forth-like interpreter PostgreSQL comes with a builtin imperative programming language called PL/pgSQL. I used to think this language was scary because it has a bit more adornment than your usual language does. But looking deeper, it's actually reasonably pleasant to program in. In this post we'll get familiar with it by working with strings, arrays and recursive functions. We'll top it a....

Last week I was studying outside of a lecture hall where someone was teaching an introductory course on computer programming. There was a lot that I overheard that I disagreed with; this essay is an attempt to help me crystallize what exactly I disagreed with. What is programming? What is good programming? What should programming be like? How you answer depends a lot on what you value. What I value in programming has not always bee....
