The movie is based on the first book in a trilogy. Really weird, almost surreal sci-fi. Definitely enjoyed both the books and the movie.

Treating addiction as a disease in it's own right seems like a good place to start. If the drug seeking, dishonesty, etc, are symptoms of an underlying disease, wouldn't it be best to treat the cause rather than fiddling with the

Premature optimization something something...and honestly this isn't even optimization, just some extra complexity. Dockers cool for doing dev stuff on your laptop, or for scaling out with something like kubernetes. This is just silly!

Love lua. Luajit is stupid fast and the ffi stuff makes it a snap to integrate with other libraries. You can find Lua in neat places like nginx, redis, tokyotyrant... I dislike the direction python has been going (twisted...i mean asyncio,

antireZ...that's just awesome. Thanks for restoring my faith in the hacking mentality once again. Even cooler apropos of the stuff he alludes to on Twitter last week.

So an eye for an eye, huh? The thing is, publicly shaming someone is a very lazy way to effect change. Sure it might work for corporations, but if there's resistance it may be necessary to try reaching out to the decision makers via a

I have compassion for these people who made these ludicrous comments -- they clearly aren't cryptographers or digital security experts. Let's separate the people making these comments from the corporations they represent. Public s

There was a prominent doctor here in Topeka who was fired from the hospital for keeping folks on Suboxone. The idea of course is that you can have a nice gentle taper, same with methadone, but the reality is you can't "beat"

Crazy. Sub clinics are sad places. Gray-faced junkies paying $3-400/month to stay hooked. A buprenorphine script is probably $10/month. It's a racket. Capitalism at work.

I got my degree in English lit, but it's only as an adult, with the benefit of life experience, that I feel I can really appreciate so many of the books I read in college and high school. The best books seem to say something true in a

Cool project thanks for sharing your work. There's an older project using lmdb (which doesn't support branching or anything, just for storage)...is litetree's usage of lmdb comparable to what sqlightning does? How does litetr

Looks like the speed comes from using lmdb rather than sqlites own storage layer.

Sqlite is in the public domain and, like redis, has various apis for writing your own extensions. Some of those extensions are free, some are proprietary (thinking of sqlite encryption extension, although there are free alternatives). There

It may be a bit out-of-date, but BerkeleyDB provides a SQLite front-end that supports page-level locking -- and thus has better TPS when multiple threads are writing. It's basically SQLite with the btree ripped out and replaced with Be

For Python folks interested in using these features, you might be interested in this post [0] which describes how to compile the latest SQLite and the python sqlite3 driver. I've got a fork of the standard lib sqlite3 driver that inclu

While it's true that you can run plain-old Ubuntu on a 10-year-old machine without problems, the growth in popularity of smaller ARM processors (rpi etc) also creates demand for a lightweight linux distro. When I read the title I assum

The counterfeit issue seems to be getting worse, not better. It's also become harder to differentiate legitimate listings from the manufacturer versus a third-party. I bought my smart TV from Best buy simply because I don't trust

The host complaining that the guest was entitled to a room they had paid for is unbelievably ironic. I guess the irony was lost on Airbnb.
