The latter enables users to sync org files with other iOS apps or just open/edit from Emacs for the full org-mode/agenda experience. Syncing wi..

One of the most essential properties of a quantile estimator is its efficiency . In simple words, the efficiency describes the estimator accuracy. The Harrell-Davis quantile estimator is a good option to achieve higher efficiency. However, this estimator may provide lower efficiency in some special cases. In this post, we will conduct a set of simulations that show the actual efficiency numbers. We compare different distributions (symmetri..

How do you add an empty directory to a Git repository? It’s a classic, and yet, I have to look it up every single time. Git does not support this out of the box: Currently the design of the Git index (staging area) only permits files to be listed, and nobody competent enough to make the change to allow empty directories has cared enough about this situation to remedy it. Directories are added automatically when adding files inside them...

Reading hackernews, I came across Issue 2070: Github: Widespread injection vulnerabilities in Actions . While I've yet to use github actions seriously, I recognised the feature described as near idential to Azure DevOps' " Logging Commands " and decided to look at whether they were vulnerable to the same issue. They are: Azure DevOps suffers from the same vulnerability. The problem was reported through the Microsoft Azure DevOps Bounty ..

In the first part of this course, we are going to introduce some rudiments of Assembly, focusing on basic programming concepts and comparing compilation to assembly. What is Assembly Language? Assembly language is a low-level programming language for a computer. A low-level programming language means that the instructions are basic and the computer can easily recognize what it is told to do. Using the assembler, assembly language can be con..

Would you like a guardian angel looking over you? Helping you with limitless memory and superhuman awareness? Such angels are already available, but unfortunately, it’s still portrayed that they’re on someone else’s team − that instead of helping you remember what happened, they’re “remembering what you did” and they’re “spying on you”; “reading your thoughts”.

If you are a grumpy old geek like me, you are probably a sucker for vintage computer games too. I don’t play games. Not anymore. I still enjoy reading about them, though. I guess it’s mostly nostalgia. I also believe that the mid-80s up to the mid-90s really was the golden age of computer games. In my book, innovation started with Infocom’s text adventures and soft-ended with Origin’s Ultima Online. After that, it’s been a constant evolutio..

I love Easter. In my mind it is just as important as Christmas. Indeed, if Christ had not died for our sins and been resurrected, then there would be no reason to celebrate His birth.

A collection of the most diverse questions I have received via email that might be helpful before tackling the course. What knowledge is required? In order to face the course with serenity and not to go crazy at the first lines of code, it is necessary to have a basic knowledge of computer architecture (the basic components) and iterative programming. The notions will be covered as the reader gets deeper into the course; otherwise Google is..

It is finally starting to feel like spring is here, even though we are having bouts of snow and it is still very cold. Something about the sun feels more spring-like. Maybe the feeling is induced by the yellow roses and pink tulips Dimitris surprised me with yesterday, which feel like very spring-y flowers. In reality, I wish the occasion for them was a bit happier. He dropped them off as a “get well soon” present for Rigel, who is once aga..

After figuring out a problem after hours of struggle, the simplicity of the result often belies the difficulty of the process. When I look at the final configuration that I came up with in ACEManager, everything looks simple and obvious, but the process was far from it. That’s the case nearly every time I configure a new feature on my Sierra Wireless RV55 LTE router. This device is not made for consumers. It’s built for ambulances, traffic ....

In this last section of our first part about artifacts and places, we'll explore memes, internet memes, and cults, their definitions, how they have transformed and crisscrossed, their relationship, their role as communication vectors, and the extreme forms that they can take. Meme is a word that comes up in many conversations. It can refer to two related definitions, the classic one and the internet-related one.

I am very ignorant about the Istrian Peninsula’s history, a gap I always wanted to fill. After some research, Fulvio Tomizza’s book, Materada, surfaced as a good fit to fill this gap. It’s a semi-biographic historical novel set in the Istria of the author’s youth. Fulvio Tomizza was born in Giurizzani di Materada, Istria, in 1935. He had to go through all the torments caused in that disputed area by Fascism first (forced Italianization, cul..

In the last three and a half months, I kept enjoying my MacBook Pro 13" M1, battery life, performance; everything is on the top level. But I also have an MBP 16 2019 that I have been using for development before. This Mac is a top-loaded MBP that I could buy at that time with the price of close to $5,000. I tried to sell it, but most folks are trying to lowball me to 2,000. The Apple Trade-In program is also willing to give me $1,750 for th..

Last year I had a lot of free time to try out some of the things that had been lingering on my ever growing to-do list over the years and top among them was Huginn which describes it self as: “Huginn is a system for building agents that perform automated tasks for you online. They can read the web, watch for events, and take actions on your behalf. Huginn’s Agents create and consume events, propagating them along a directed graph.

C is almost 50 years old. A great age for a bottle of wine, not so great for a programming language in the fast-moving industry. Over the past 10 years many new languages have emerged, with different flavours, all trying to become a C replacement to some extent. When a new language becomes more or less popular – developers start writing benchmarks, showing how performant the software in this language is, how much CPU power and how much memo..
