By focusing on what is interesting and keeping written track of your own intellectual development, topics, questions, and arguments will naturally emerge without force.

CSS-in-JS is a relatively new and a very contradictory way of writing CSS. On the one hand, it tries to overcome the limitations of traditional CSS to make it more reusable, especially when it comes to styling components. On the other hand, it’s different from traditional CSS and has it’s own disadvantages. There is no single CSS-in-JS library, there is even no sight of a clear winner in this race. However, all CSS-in-JS implementations hav..

Here’s the High Performance Block IO on Linux hacking session video. It’s based on my recent article about achieving 11M IOPS & 66 GB/s IO on a single ThreadRipper workstation . Enjoy! Towards the end of this video, I also explain how I got up to 11.5M IOPS without having to keep CPUs 100% busy, with batched I/O submission and completion checks I reduced the CPU usage pretty noticeably. Also, with properly configuring I/O p..

It’s February and I am already planting my tree seeds for spring! The gardening technique I will be using is called “Winter-Sowing” . This is my first blog post pertaining to growing trees from winter sown seeds. I plan on logging and documenting my growing experience in this series of weblogs titled as Winter Sown Seeds Weblog .

Some time ago I wrote a similar post about React, in which with a few lines of code we have built a tiny ReactJS clone from scratch. But React is not the only choice in the modern frontend world, and VueJS is constantly gaining its popularity, so why don’t we look deeper into how it works and maybe create a silly educational VueJS-like framework. Reactivity Like ReactJS, Vue is reactive, meaning that all the changes in the application state..

Audio on Unix is a little zoo, there are so many acronyms for projects and APIs that it's easy to get lost. Let's tackle that issue! Most articles are confusing because they either use audio technical jargon, or because they barely scratch the surface and leave people clueless. A little knowledge can be dangerous.

Today, someone in one of the rooms I moderate had to get banned for spreading homophobia and transphobia. In the argument preceding the ban, he shared a video with the lovely title "Doctor Destroys Transgenderism with Simple Science" . I did not actually bother to watch it back then, mainly due to the fact it has a length of 27 minutes and 17 seconds, however, as if there was nothing else to do, I decided to watch it now anyway just to see....

Last week I posted a reading list of the books I have read (or plan to read this year) on engineering management. My concern is that no one teaches you this stuff in an MBA or at work so you’re kind of forced to do this on your own.

After six years in the field, Chris has shared his strong opinions on software development practices, languages, and methodologies. I like his attitude. Willingness to continuously put one’s personal views under scrutiny, eventually adapting or even changing them as needed, is not a common trait. Not in our field. While I generally agree with most of his opinions, I feel the urge to comment on a few of them. Typed languages are better..

XMR is the better medium of exchange, but BTC is the better store of value? We disagree. BTC’s transparency does more to detract from its properties as a store of value than people realize.

Have you ever thought that Tamagotchis deserved more rights than a photograph of a child? In this video, we explore: How some existing non-human entities are missing out on rights How non-human entities relate to foreigners How society could benefit from more deliberate thought being applied to deciding who should actually exist Foreigners are compared to non-humans as a way of relating to the similarities in their existence.

As a non-native English reader, I had to look up the true meaning of “Unbundling” as a neologism. According to Wikipedia Unbundling is a neologism to describe how the ubiquity of mobile devices, Internet connectivity, consumer web technologies, social media and information access in the 21st century is affecting older institutions (education, broadcasting, newspapers, games, shopping, etc.) by “break[ing] up the packages they once offer..

This post applies the gamma effect size to practical case studies comparing performance distributions across quantiles. In Pragmastat, Disparity formalizes this as a robust Cohen’s d analogue normalized by pooled Spread . Confidence intervals are available via DisparityBounds . pragmastat.dev github.com/AndreyAkinshin/pragmastat There are several ways to describe the difference between two distributions. Here are a few examp..

Having your own blog is a very interesting experiment. Like any other project it will teach you something. Your writing skills will improve (that’s an assumption but it’s difficult not to improve if you do it regularly). If you’re not writing in your native language, you’ll improve in the language you do write in. You’ll notice holes in your understanding of the subject you’re describing. You’ll draw attention of others to your work and, ho..
