Last edit 2025-10-11 For this, I am not going to be talking about any mobile phone OS like android or embedded systems like libreCMC. Distro Hopping When I entered the linux world at first, I did this and it is one of the most stupid things to do. Look at this linux distro tree (png). There are so many distros and many are created and abandoned. Many do not hold any special purpose.

Smart homes are becoming a bigger thing over time and I don’t really like them a whole lot. A lot of people that end up buying and setting these up don’t think a whole lot about the negative consequences. Security A lot of these devices like smart cameras, lights, thermostats, etc. have to be connected to your network and have internet access. Many of the companies that produce these products don’t care too much about security which can put..

On Thursday, I will be speaking in Milan at WebDay 2023 . Mine is a hands-on session on building a reliable and continuous end-to-end testing environment for web apps using Microsoft Playwright. If you attended my introductory Playwright session at WPC last year, Thursday’s session would be the ideal follow-up to that one, as I only briefly touched on CI deployments there. Drawing from my experience doing the whole thing in production,..

I have been doing interviews recently, and whenever someone mentions knowing a lot of Go and Java one of the questions I put to them is how to implement Go channels in Java. Since there isn’t anything online to suggest how to do this that I liked reading (that I could find) I thought I would write one, and do it in native Java without needing to import a library.

Introduction In episode 6, Miki built a logger package with the aim of making it as versatile as possible. To achieve this, he constructed his logger object with a function that would: accept the io.Writer interface as a parameter and perform type assertions to retrieve other interface types as needed. By building this, Miki demonstrated how polymorphism is achieved with Go by changing the type of a variable with type assertions.

I completely failed to achieve my goal of writing something non-technical at least once a month, so here we're trying not to fail with abandon . As a sad result of my WSL2 setup dying, I've had to reconfigure my desktop Linux experience from scratch again. As a result I've run into Jeff Dickey's rtx , a software version manager written in Rust. Anyone who manages multiple projects with different sets of dependencies 1 knows the pain ....

A VPN isn’t a bad thing but the way in which they are usually advertised to people are. A VPN isn’t for the purpose they advertise. What these companies are advertising is a glorified proxy. Logging They can and probably do log. Any that say they don’t could just lie. They can’t acquire everything but they can collect a reasonable amount of information. Security and Privacy A VPN by itself doesn’t bring you security.

I was recently reading the documentation of nnethercote/counts , in there, Nicholas explains a few pain points when using a table as a profiling output. But using SQLite as the “table” can relieve some of those pains. I frequently use SQLite for debugging and I wanted to share some techniques that have been helpful (and relate them to some arguments mentioned in nnethercore/counts ) Defining the table and exposing it to multiple modules ..

Stack Overflow is the go-to resource for developers worldwide seeking solutions to their programming problems.

However, the site has come under fire for being too strict and unwelcoming to new users. Many developers are already using ChatGPT to get answers to their programming qu....

I dislike using cell phones for many different reasons and for me, I can’t find one I can like to use. Repairability Companies that produce these devices intentionally make it more difficult to repair the device you purchased by implementing DRM and making exclusive deals for parts manufacturers to not provide them for anyone else. With this, the user is forced to go the company for any repairs and they are able to set the price to whatever..

Last edited 2025-10-11 Guns in the United Kingdom can be a sensitive subject. After events such as the Dunblane massacre and Hungerford massacre (committed with legal firearms), gun laws became much stricter and they have continued to become stricter over the years. Currently, the process to get a gun in the UK means you have to meet various criteria and will take a lot of time. In this, I may use the word firearm and shotgun interchangeabl..

Recently, I’ve been using Notion for a variety of purposes, including tracking my workouts. While there are many fitness tracking templates available, some of which are quite complex, I chose to rely on existing popular apps like Hevy, Strava, and Concept2 Logbook for detailed tracking, and use Notion as a central place for logging my activities. Initially, I was tracking my workouts manually, which wasn’t very enjoyable. In this post, I’ll..

Here are some utility functions that have been useful when writing automation scripts. requests I like using requests or httpx , but if you add a dependency to your script, now you’ll need to create an environment, install the depdencies, etc. just to run it. I like keeping automation scripts in a single file I can copy around. Instead of using the requests, module, you can use this. This function has been adapted from the urlrequest f..

I wanted to query a large TSV file stored in S3. To achieve this, I decided to convert it to Parquet and query it using DuckDB . However, I didn’t want to download the full file and then convert it. Instead, I wanted to stream the CSV file directly from S3 and write the output to a Parquet file. Here are a couple of approaches that worked quite nicely. Setup I’m running these experiments on an EC2 instance with 8 cores and 32GB of RAM. T..

Sometimes calling a subprocess is better than using a dependency/package. At least in Python, once you add a third-party dependency, distribution becomes slightly harder. I like writing automation scripts in a single .py file. If that script doesn’t use any third-party dependencies, distributing it is as easy as copying the file to the machine. Otherwise you need to package your project, deal with virtual environments, PyPi, pipx , etc. I ..

After deploying k3s on one of my servers (which I will post about later) I searched for a solution to manage the components deployed on it. My first thought was to use terraform, but it has several drawbacks when it comes to k8s and helm support. Additionally it needs managing unnecessary state files managing even for that simple task. While it may be worth sticking to one tool if everything is in it, this was not the case for me this time.
