We are happy to announce that Snyk Code is now part of the Snyk command-line interface (Snyk CLI) in a public beta. Now you can easily make the Snyk Code CLI part of the CI/CD process, with the flexibility to trigger a scan and work with the results in an automatic fashion.

Quantile estimators based on k order statistics, Part 8: Winsorized Harrell-Davis quantile estimator

In the previous post , we have discussed the trimmed modification of the Harrell-Davis quantile estimator based on the highest density interval of size $\sqrt{n}/n$. This quantile estimator showed a decent level of statistical efficiency. However, the research wouldn’t be complete without comparison with the winsorized modification. Let’s fix it!

Enumerating and analyzing 40+ non-V8 JavaScript implementations

V8 is, I'm sure, the most used implementation of JavaScript today. Used in Chrome, (and by extension) Microsoft Edge, Node.js, etc. Safari's JavaScriptCore and Firefox's SpiderMonkey are also contenders for extremely mainstream implementations. But what else is out there? What if I want to embed JavaScript in a C program, or a Go program, or a Rust program, or a Java program(, and so on)? Or what if I want to run JavaScript on a microcont....

Click the image for the full length video. It’s worth it. Comments Survival In the struggle for survival, the fittest win out at the expense of their rivals because they succeed in adapting themselves best to their environment. You may think that quote is from Charles Darwin but it is actually a misquote. I’ll let you do your own homework to find the true author.

gemini://friends.riverside.camp/~clarity/journal/branding.gmi gemini://idiomdrottning.org/re-branding Some interesting thoughts going around on the topic of branding in software and websites. I’ve had thoughts like these too, and designed a lot of my website purposefully un-branded. I have no logos, no banners, barely navigational links. I figured I would just see what happens if you subvert this paradigm of web design, since it is stu..

Defending Against Neural Fake News by Zellers et al. presents a model for controllable text generation called Grover. This model can be used to create highly believable computer-generated news articles. The authors present this paper as a method of detecting and preventing the spread of fake news. They claim their model is 92% accurate at detecting fake news stories, partially due to artifacts that generators include in the generated text..

Comments Planning work I’m sure many of you saw this gif in various places recently. There’s lots of similarities that are obvious from a software engineering perspective. To me it shows how difficult a re-write really is. Estimating “Most people overestimate what they can achieve in a year and underestimate what they can achieve in ten years.” The same is true for what I can achieve in an afternoon and what I can achieve in a week.

Figure 1. Our hand-drawn map of the Kingdom of Hyrule. I drew a 2x1 grid in Inkscape and printed it out, then we filled it in as we went along. It’s been about six months since the last update. We’ve mostly been camping, playing outside and generally enjoying the summer - although we have also squeezed in some gaming, here and there. Favourite Games So Far We spent almost all of our game time playing Legend of Zelda. It’s a towering achie....

A month ago, I posted about my desire to bring org tasks/TODOs to iOS and make them quickly available from my iPhone. Since then, I've received some great feedback, which I've been slowly chipping away at. My intent isn't so much to move my org workflow over to iOS, but to supplement Emacs while away from my laptop. As of now, this is what the inline edit experience looks like: If, like me, you prefer dark mode. The app's got ya ..

I feel uncomfortable with many symbols. I might have opinions about a subject, but there’s rarely a camp that has some symbol, flag, slogan, etc. that I’m comfortable with adopting because that camp does not accurately reflect my opinion. All too often, a slogan takes on more than its surface meaning, and that can make using that slogan tricky. A simple example is with politics. On certain topics I agree with whatever happens to be define....

So hacker news apparently discovered my search engine, and really took a liking to the idea. Actually that’s a bit of an understatement, the thread has gotten 3.3k points and lingered on the front page for half a week. And I wasn’t planning for it to go quite that public yet. It has quietly been online for a while, but it was only very recently it started to feel like it was really coming together. It wasn’t perfect, there was still a lot o..

Comments Do you know how to say no? People often feel guilty for saying no to opportunities, but in reality you should say no when you really care about something but know you are not the best person. It doesn’t matter if you’re not interested, if you don’t have enough time, or you don’t have the right skills. If you understand saying no will make the project/event/collaboration/etc. more successful then you can better position yourself to..

In April, I put together a Python script that would load an XML export from Wikipedia into a local SQLite database because, once again, you never know when you'll inadvertently become a time traveller who needs knowledge of future events to return home. (Look, it's more interesting than just saying “because I find it amusing”, so just roll with me here.) This script satisfied the typical time traveler's use-case of “finding a bit of topical..
