Last night, I presented about Termux to EdLug, the Edinburgh Linux User group (see the event page on meetup.com ) in a talk titled “The freedom of shelling out on Android”. It was tons of fun showing off how your Android phone/tablet getting a terminal unlocks a powerful tool! I've made the slides available on this website, click on the slide below. Remember that there are speaker notes for people following at home, press `S` to use ..

The newest release of Go – Go 1.13 – finally introduced full support for Go Modules – brilliant and long-awaited solution for built-in dependency versioning problem. Modules now enabled by default, and virtually make GOPATH obsolete. Technically speaking, GOPATH is still supported, and Go 1.13 Release Notes uses term “ GOPATH mode ” (as being opposite to the “ modules mode ”), but still, to me this is a tectonic shift in the Go deve..

I’ve been using Google Compute Platform (GCP) & Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) for years. And I love it, I hated AWS since the first release to these days, naming is cumbersome, UX is terrible… Here are a quick survey of the tools and how I’ve used them for small to medium projects: Cloud Build Cloud Build is super easy, it’s a scriptable CI/CD, very similar to Github Actions, there is a one hour free tier per day, the default machine is ve..


The command line tool I created Sloc Cloc and Code (scc) (which is now modified and maintained by many other excellent people) counts lines of code, comments and makes a complexity estimate for files inside a directory. The latter is something you need a good sample size to make good use of. The way it works is that it counts branch statements in code. However what does that actually mean? For example “This file has a complexity of 10” is..

Kubernetes is easy to use after some exposure; it's pretty convenient too. But it is super hard to set up. eksctl is a good tool for folks who don't want to spend hours/days/weeks debugging VPC configuration in 1000s of lines of CloudFormation. None of the other tools seem to be that much easier to use (kops, kubeadm, etc.). But even with EKS and eksctl you are constrained to Amazon Linux worker nodes. AMIs are practically impossible ....



I have an Ansible role that deploys microservices, of whom I have a list of. The microservices are called foo, bar and baz. I also have a list of stages, called DEV, QA and PROD where the microservices get deployed to. Of course, every microservice needs to connect to a database using credentials. These credentials are different for every microservice in every stage. This means I have nine different password-variables stored in an Ansib....

I have said it before , and I will say it again: if I had the chance to buy a new Defender 110 in North America, I would have a hard time saying no — even though I have settled on the LandCruiser 78 as my dream adventure platform . That classic aesthetic sucks me in every single time. So when I cam across Form Meets Function on Expedition Portal, where Chris Cordes details Heritage Driven’s Defender 110 restoration process , it happened..

Snyk wants to help developers adopt a security mindset throughout their development process, and The Secure Developer community is the place where you can do just that










I spent a lot of time over the last few weeks thinking about my rig , redesigning the Tacoma I want to build , and dreaming of adventuring. In one of these recurring dreams, I travel to far-flung places in a decked out LandCruiser 78. You may know it as the Troopy or the J78. I fear this will never become a reality, though, for a few reasons I touch on later. But that feeling did get me thinking. Why did I want a Troopy so bad? What w..


Making Things Fast A while back, we used a toy particle physics trigger to explore concepts in lazy evaluation and functional programming in Clojure. We came up with the following function which selected groups of eight events clustered close together in time: (defn smt-8 [times] (->> times (partition 8 1) (map (juxt identity (comp (partial apply -) (juxt last first)))) (filter (comp (....

Creative web design and systematic web design don’t need to be at arms. This post examines how to use a design system (Material) and extend it to make it your own.

I’ve been playing a mobile game called Star Trek Timelines for a year now. One aspect of the game is the weekend “event” competitions. There are different types of events - one, in particular, is supply missions.
