I checked out the blog and noticed the book "Quantations". > How does the theoretical world of quantum physics create our everyday life? "Quantations" explains this with wit and clarity, making the imaginary real. I…
Yeah, same here. In a sense I'm looking forward to retirement. And in a sense I dread it, since once that day has come it would mean that I'm old and the last third of my life has firmly started already a few years ago…
Wow, this is brilliant!
Then you need a better mail client.
This is quite cool, but I'm wondering why we need to re-invent the wheel for all those threaded discussion platforms. The OG is definitely email. What would really rock would be an IMAP gateway which you subscribe to…
As long as you know the implications, you don't need to know how the values are stored. You may say it's easier to know how they are stored, then you can derive the implications anytime you need them. Maybe that works…

> It’s really not uncommon for some trials to fail to differentiate from placebo when it comes to depression studies. That doesn’t make this study “rubbish”, it just shows that you need to examine the body of evidence…
Right. You can know these abstract properties though without knowing how a float is actually represented in memory.
In the olden days it was IRC. Already then it was about controlling yourself. Whether you would get distracted or not. If you want to get into the zone, it's up to you how to do that. If you have an IRC or Slack window…
And why is that necessary knowledge? Don't get me wrong, once you go down to embedded you sometimes do need to know and sometimes it just improves your understanding (and it's kinda cool anyway), but if you do…
I do embedded and it's fantastic. I could never do the cloud/web grind.
At uni, different styles do cluster. There are the circles in which the nerds cluster who are really in the tunnel about whatever subject it is, here it's programming or CS in general. They do it for fun, they come home…
Those who think they are unit testing but are actually integration testing. This is not just about terminology. If you don't have actual unit tests then your testing is much more complicated and heavyweight than it…
If your unit test needs root privileges, then it's not really a unit test in all but very few exceptional cases. It means you are interacting with the actually running kernel, which means you are integration testing,…
