If you have an itch to solve a few, https://griddlers.net has you covered for just about a lifetime. Even huge multi-grid-puzzles, triangle ones, colors, no colors.

This was an entirely weird thing at the last soccer world cup, or the one before that: TV via Satellite, Video streams and TV via DVB-T had different transmission delays, with up to 15 - 20 seconds of delay between them. As such, the people

Yeah, I like it. I used this as a tutor in more finicky exercises when it becomes really important to keep 2-3 very similar, but different things apart. It takes a bit of dexterity, but you can switch fluently between 3 different whiteboard

This is hitting back a long time. But the algorithm - if I recall right - is a simple DFS on the determinstic automaton for the regular expression and it can output the full set of matching strings if you're allowed to use *s in the ou

Be stingy in a smart way. I'd like a description why you need the storage, an estimation how much and a projection of growth over the next 6 - 12 month, though the latter one can wait for a month or three for something new. Beyond a ce

My first impulse - after playing some programming/optimization games over the morning - was: Is these just one kind of efficiency for a language? For example, mandarin or japanese can be very short on the character count. However, this

Sure you can. At 100k / month revenue, you have 100 currency / month or 1200 / year available for another artist, which may or may not include the risk of messing up the "feel of the SFX and music". Even at 10x that

Game development adds another dimension. A musician I know helps small indie artists with music as a side business. His contract states a fixed number of hours producing the music and effects is free, until earning some 100k revenue /

I've been challenging myself in a current work project. I don't want duplication in tests and I want most methods to have zero setup. The high level tests ideally should just start with a get-request and go straight into expectati

Yeah, I've found I'm starting to write fewer, and coarser tests and it is good for the code base. You can always augment them with bugs later on. And if you can isolate the main logic of a system into small components extended by

This is a good lesson in clear writing, by the way. Take some documentation you've written and try to misunderstand it. Think about synonyms or think about the words in a different context and see how far you can run away from the orig

That criticism feels weak to me outside of the scope of "StrictYaml vs TOML". Within that context, I might agree, having just heard of StrictYaml today. Having dealt with the full blast of complexity YAML and especially XML and X

The thing is: Different levels of experience need different measures of success, up to the point of leeway from the normal measurements of success. Like, for someone in tier 1 / tier 2 helpdesk, or the regular developer pushing relativ

This is why I've grown even more careful about introducing new domains in production. If I keep everything in one or a small amount of production domains, even if a product is shut down, a project ends, and everyone has long forgotten

I was about to say, as much as I enjoy python. Perl is more effective than Python. You can do some pretty amazing things in Perl in a few lines. You can also do amazingly readable scripts in Perl. But... if you aren't careful how you w

Mh. Honestly, I've encountered ruby in about 3 primary ways. RoR and Sinatra, which are kinda the same webdev thing, and Chef as a config management. There are additional things, but more supporting things - Rake and Capistrano as depl

Here you need to start considering the goal of the text and different tools work for different kinds of work. With Diataxis[1] in mind: In a non-fiction reference style document, neither repetition nor wordy descriptions have a place. Repet

Terraform, unless invoked as tf-yolo (aka terraform -auto-approve), will present you with a cheerful "Hello, I would like to delete everything. Continue: y/n". This makes it fairly easy to panic before deleting everything. Ot

At work, we're running a hybrid container/vm setup. We host the applications from our dev-teams as containers, since there is a lot of them and this allows them to do most of the work to integrate new apps with the stack. However,

Hm, where is the large advantage over building a list pos_args and a map kw_args and calling func(*pos_args, **kw_args)? You can also transform between both forms with a few comprehensions with a few isinstance-checks. >>> de

I really don't like the rename. I was worried there for a second if something was going on in the X-Universe - read as in X.org, X11, xterm, ... and the sentence didn't parse at all. Then I realized it's about dang twitter.

As fishnchips says, Haskell is more of an introspective journey imo. Like, Monads are fucking weird. Until you realize that monads are more about dealing with context and making data-dependencies and side-effects explicit. And then you star

In my book, mirroring what a friend recently told me about instruments: Learn Python. Ignore everything else for 1-3 years. The main drawback is: You won't be able to write 10^3 - 10^5 events per second throughput services. That's

Aye. A similar rite of passage: Any admin who hasn't nuked a server yet isn't working for long yet, or at their effective limit and is too careful. We all have a few of these. My first one was a jenkins node with a "mv $WORKS
