I haven’t been able to post much lately, so I’ll quickly layout what projects I’ve been up to these past couple of months.

Following up on my last post about large JSON queries , I also benchmarked sub-string queries on large variable-length strings. I wanted to check if sub-string queries might be faster than HSTORE or JSONB key lookups. I tested both binary ( BYTEA ) and Unicode text ( TEXT ). Unfortunately, Postgres sub-string queries are about 6× slower than HSTORE or JSONB key queries. I also learned that Postgres regular expressions are extremely slow: a....

Describes Prig, which is for Processing Records In Go. It's a text processing tool like AWK, but it uses Go as the scripting language.

The first preview of C# 11 is out, and well, I think I like what I see. I dig the new List patterns and am a fan of allowing newlines in the “holes” of interpolated strings . Parameter null-checking is a bit contentious, and it’s good that they are releasing it in preview one and asking for feedback. In a nutshell, they want to spare us a lot of boilerplate. Code like this: public static void M(string s) { if (s is null) { thro..

This is post is part of set 2 of A Ramble Around CS . In this post, we’re going to look at how to get, set, and otherwise manipulate individual bits. Bit twiddling and bit bashing are often used interchangeably with bit manipulation, but sometimes exclusively refer to clever or non-obvious ways or uses of bit manipulation, or tedious or challenging low-level device control data manipulation tasks. The term bit twiddling dates fr....

For millions of years, it has been a daily obsession for living organisms to seek out safety from the elements and safety from predators, lest that day be their last. Living in the Western world, it’s easy to forget that many humans still live this way of life, not having much certainty about how they’re supposed to keep themselves alive for the next day or two.

This is post is part of set 2 of A Ramble Around CS . In this post, we’re going to become more familiar with messing around with individual bits: “bit twiddling”. And, Or, Not, etc. When dealing with bits—or with “boolean” values (True or False) 1 —we talk about value a and value b, value a or value b, etc. They have more precise meanings than their normal English usage: In normal usage, you might say, “I’ll wash the dis....

So I've been using the squeezebox as my daily driver keyboard for two weeks now. Here's my thoughts on this experience. But first a typing video: Typing video The Home Corner Works The design element of the middle and bottom rows being a steep 100 degree angle feels totally validated to me and I'd recommend other experimenters out there incorporate it into their designs. Even though accidental bottom row presses are still some of my ....

Building a JSON string in Bash can be pretty fiddly and annoying, with quoting and formatting and variable substitution, etc…​ If you only have a little JSON , using a printf template works well, like this: #!/usr/bin/env bash # Your printf template string template = '{ "state": "%s", "key": "%s", "description": "%s", "url": "%s" }' # Variable to store your rendered template JSON string data = "" # Some variables to ....

I’ve caught some bug and don’t have the energy to write more than a brief note. I want to commemorate the fact that work on the Marginalia search engine started one year ago. The first commit was on February 26th 2021, and contained a sketch for a website crawler and some data models. In many ways, the paint is barely dry, yet it feels like this project has been around for a long while.

Dismal arithmetic is just like the arithmetic you learned in school, only simpler: there are no carries, when you add digits you just take the largest, and when you multiply digits you take the smallest. How does code look in the two languages I like a lot; Clojure and APL?
