This post covers some higher-level software engineering principles demonstrated in my experience with Python testing over the past year and half. In particular, I want to revisit the idea of patching mock objects in unit tests.

Narrowing utilities are a wonderful way of increasing productivity. I have a few workflows using Emacs's Helm framework. There are great productivity boosters like Alfred and Quicksilver for macOS, with batteries included. If you're a tinkerer, you'd enjoy the powerful Hammerspoon . Like elisp gluing all things Emacs, Hammerspoon uses Lua to glue all things macOS. You can build your own narrowing utilities using chooser and a l....

History We at HackerEarth created a single-page document with common and special CSS classes to make layouts, grids, buttons, inputs, tables, tooltips, and form elements in late 2017. That was our first attempt to develop on our own front-end framework. Old Nuskha screens: Framework is a platform, foundation on which ready software solutions are built, in this particular case – web interfaces. For this purpose front-end framework ....

Python also ranks third in the “most loved” category. Despite the age (20 years and counting..

I was playing around on the new Mix.com social media website and came across this click-bait article from MentalFloss: This Math Problem for 8-Year-Olds Left Parents Stumped . The problem, which I’ll repeat below, turned out not the be that complex. I have no idea why it “left parents stumped.” That said, I’m a sucker for math problems, and I wanted to explore the question further.

xfce4 problems I had some problems with xfce4 that eventually made it untenable. No way to make ctrl-w always close browser tab instead of being an emacs kill word keybinding xfwm4 would occassionally lock up and prevent me from dragging windows around. I had to run xfwm4 --replace to fix it. This is kind of a deal breaker for a window manager. Reordering window buttons in the window list by drag and drop didn't work I couldn't find good....

This is a very simple idea for a quiz. It drops you in a random place somewhere in the world and you use Google StreetView to work out where it is. If you are lucky you end up in a town or city, sometimes you end up in the middle of nowhere. It is amazing how much you can work out by looking at the flora or a random signpost.

This is the first in what I hope becomes a series of posts on how we’re slaying the monolith at Greenhouse. Over the course of the next year, Greenhouse Engineering is aiming to break down our monolithic Rails application into a more scalable and robust collection of services. This won’t happen quickly, but it will happen deliberately and with the clear goal of safely scaling Greenhouse Recruiting into the future. This is a cross-post fro....

The FHIR standard started as a better way to exchange healthcare data, but it also provides a solid basis for deep analytics and Machine Learning at scale. This post looks at an example from the recent FHIR DevDays conference that does just that. You can also run the interactive FHIR data engineering tutorial used in the conference yourself. Our first step is to bring FHIR data into a data lake – a computational environment where our analys..

Time is precious - once again, I only managed to fit in one book in my busy schedule for the month. Hopefully, come August, I’ll have more time, since the last session for the last class in my Master’s program is on July 25th. Of course, my son might be mobile by then - he’ll be four months on the 26th - so he will require more attention.

Lately I’ve been thinking about how easy it is to fall into the trap of not challenging our ideas about the code we’re working on. In order to challenge the default mindset of Clean Code, I recently proposed to institute Dirty Code Monday (a proposal that sort of got me into a bit of a big discussion). Anyway, here is the report from the first successful Dirty Code Monday one week ago:

Over the years I’ve learned about many of the advantages of using a modern terminal and shell. I’m talking about using bash with GNOME terminal on a modern GNU/Linux distribution. I particularly like switching between the terminal and GUI applications. It’s now even better.

And every one of those trips involving some amazing stories with great people. In April, I broke my collarbone while mountain biking in Peru (I’ll do a writeup on that at another time), which provided no small amount of downtime to think about what to do with my time when I’m not out being ac....
