Homebrew to wspaniały menadżer pakietów, z którego korzystam na macOS. Ponieważ staram się często aktualizować zainstalowane programy, to już nawykowo wpisuję do Terminala szereg komend w kolejności, czekając na jedną po drugiej. Bez sensu, marnowanie czasu, wzrost frustracji - od czego mam programowanie™? Poniżej...

Jimmy Riccitello, Ironman’s head referee, confirmed this to Slowtwitch on the Slowtwitch Podcast. The new rules World Triathlon announced in April (and clarified again in May) in their rule interpretation document are in effect, but Ironman will currently only enforce them for professional athletes, and will provide...

Displaying METAR data in a human-readable format has long been at the top of my "Features I want in Sky scraper" list. But my previous attempts to implement this feature failed miserably, because parsing raw METAR data in PHP wasn't trivial (as in, far beyond my feeble coding skills). Somehow, I’d missed that the...

A Latina writes vaguely on the myth of nonchalance and the metaphysical weight of shared passion. There’s a thunderous roar, the kind that makes you wonder if Maimaktês Zeus has graced us with his golden footsteps, reckoning at our doors. It ripples—first the street, then the neighborhood, the city, the country....

When Galileo (the European satellite navigation system) was proposed there was a lot of criticism. “We already have the US GPS”, and we’d always be able to rely on our historical partner to take care of us. The US very much also said this. Yet, the EU persevered and now we have an independent worldwide navigation...

Note: This is not a techy post or anything. It's personal post. Ramble. Feel free to ignore it. Burnout is ass. Well, the games are actually pretty good. But the mental burnout, it's just ass. I've gone through this road multiple times. I'll probably go through it many more times in future. But at least I'm on a...

I read. I have opinions.

The most recent change to the search engine is a system that profiles websites based on their rendered DOM. The goal is identifying advertisements, trackers, nuisance popovers, and similar elements. The search engine already tries to do this, but isn’t very good at it because it’s only looking at static code. It...

Our first without Barb. “I don’t want our first camp to be just us.” Jen was referring to our first camping trip without Barb. We’d been camping before prior to life with Barb, but those were occasional things we did with friends or the couple of times I’d gone on an s24o[1]. It wasn’t until we got the rig that...

For this month's IndieWeb carnival on “small web communities,” I'm thinking about lowering the barrier for web independence and freedom

A loose analysis of the unproductive criticism surrounding artificial intelligence from both pro and anti camps, with advocations for more nuanced, constructive engagement and how that can be achieved to allow more informed and respectful discussions about AI technology and its impact.

I keep having this weird little fantasy of putting together a good old-fashioned zine kind of thing. You know: printed on paper, an actual, tangible item that you can hold in your hands, with pages that you can flip through and dog ear, with space in the margins for doodles or scribbles or somewhere to write a phone...

Astoria Tech Meetup goings-on. Within is a partial recap of last week's event, as well as links for you to RSVP for our hack session coming up this week.

Something I have been dealing with during my PhD, is that it is really hard to describe the 3D geometry of a photonic crystal just using words. Having pictures helps, but doesn't always cut it. I was mulling over this problem after I was excitedly trying to explain my recent results to friends, family and...

Just two running-related ads I came around today that immediately made me wanna put on my running shoes and head out. Both have this highly polished but still raw and imperfect aesthetic that I really like. Kinda like if Beef was an ad. The first one is from Strava: The second one from Nike1: The latter was...
