The music I like isn’t that ordinary, but I’d say it’s popular among developers in my age group. I found that every time I meet someone in person that codes professionally the discussion at a certain point moves to “What do you listen when you code?”, “What is your favourite genre/artist?”. Here’s what developers from big cities in the 20-30 age group tend to listen. Take it easy my brother Charlie

This blog post is about an interesting detail about machine learning that I came across as a researcher at Jane Street - that of the interaction between L2 regularization, also known as weight decay, and batch normalization.

Last time we discussed the setup for the silent duel problem: two players taking actions in $ [0,1]$, player 1 gets $ n$ chances to act, player 2 gets $ m$, and each knows their probability of success when they act. The solution is in a paper of Rodrigo Restrepo from the 1950s. In this post I’ll start detailing how I study this paper, and talk through my thought process for approaching a bag of theorems and proofs.

It’s been a few days over six months since my First Half 2018 Merch by Amazon Sales Report , which means it’s time to report on the second half of 2018. The second half of 2018 (in fact, the second half every year) contains the coveted “Q4” or fourth quarter, with the Christmas and Holiday shopping season.

This handy little package does one simple thing, and it does it well. According to its description, DeepEqual is: An extensible deep comparison library for .NET. I am sure you too have come across this a few times. You have some code that shuffles around objects, and at some point, you’d like to make sure that two instances of the same class are, indeed, equal. And no, you don’t mean “equal” as in reference equality . That’s easy to..

Bitcoin, and all other cryptocurrencies in general, have had an exciting couple of years - from 2017’s massive bull run to 2018’s massive bear market. If you bought and sold any bitcoin or other currencies, Uncle Sam wants his cut - especially if you made money.

From time to time, I need to obtain a URL to a file in the repository in my build, e.g. to point a particular tool to it, in a way that respects branches as well as pull requests...

On 30th of April, 2018, Node.js 4 was officially marked as End of Life (EOL) and ceased to receive security updates. At Snyk, we have been committed to continued support for Node.js 4 in our CLI tool, but the time has finally come to wave goodbye.

Marked Man (mm) is a little program I wrote to view Markdown files like UNIX man pages. (Because who wants to leave their terminal just to open a file?) It uses Pandoc to convert between Markdown and the groff format. As a happy side-effect, this program can read basically anything as a man page: HTML, LaTeX, Word files (seriously), ePub, etc. Anything that Pandoc can read, Marked Man can handle. Installing # I’m working on ge..

35 years ago today, Apple announced their Macintosh computer. What made the Macintosh radically different at the time was its graphical user interface (GUI) that was navigated using a mouse (mice were very uncommon in 1984!). The first Macintosh only had 128K of RAM and a Motorola 68000 CPU, but it was pretty snappy for the time. The picture at the top of this post is of my daughter next to an original Macintosh 128K (and yes, it still wo..

Despite several good online resources, it's not necessarily obvious how friend 's wrap-authorize interacts with Compojure routing. This set of routes handles /4 incorrectly: ( defroutes app-routes ( GET "/1" [] ( site-page 1 )) ( GET "/2" [] ( site-page 2 )) ( friend/wrap-authorize ( GET "/3" [] ( site-page 3 )) #{ ::user }) ( GET "/4" [] ( site-page 4 ))) Any attempt to route to /4 for a user that doesn't ....
