I’ve recently changed my workflow for preparing talks.

If you’ve done anything nontrivial with GraphQL you’re probably familiar with how “N+1 select problem” sneaks up on you.

awk is the Swiss army knife of the command line.

Micro frontends?

About 5 years ago I was working on a project written in style still common for today: python backend serving a REST API (public btw) SPA using framework-of-the day And it was horrible.

tl;dr it’s a tradeoff so it depends.

I’m pretty sure that as computers got faster they got slower.

I came across Supporting Remix with full stack Cloudflare Pages on Cloudflare blog (yes I’m a CF fan) and Remix piqued my interest.

tl;dr it works, scroll though and look for the code snippets You might have heard about Docker (the company) changing the terms of use which effectively requires enterprise users to pay up.

This time I’m trying out a monitoring solution: Prometheus.

In another “running kuberets” flavoured post I’ll be trying out microk8s High availability K8s.

This time it’s a bit different: this post has very little code and a lot of screenshots as I was primarily working with a GUI.

This is a part two of Trying out Okteto.

Today I’ll be giving Okteto a spin.

I’m trying out a new concept: my “I should check this out” list of tools and technologies has grown quite a bit so I got the idea that I could do short write ups of my experimentation and first impressions to give myself motivation to try these things out.

Why on earth would you want to do that?!

During the quarantine my hobbies (and I imagine many others’) shifted to more indoors ones - possibly sedentary.

Want to perform a git rebase in which you rename a file without pesky conflicts?

If you’ve been here before you might notice the site looks different.

Did you know that you can sort data in time linear with respect to the lenght of said data?

So I got a (recurring) task to compile some stats from Jira.

The Back Story My first foray into world of Linux happened with Red Hat Linux 6 (original, not the enterprise one).

One of the first things you learn as a newcomer to Scala is the difference between a list and a tuple: a list must be homogeneous but a tuple can be heterogeneous.

So you want an “isolated” MySQL “service” but don’t want to (or are not able to) run Docker/rkt/LXC/whatever?

Just recently I was porting a toy sized parser combinator library (a proof of concept) from Haskell to Python.

Quite recently I managed to make myself a corrupt git repository due to a file system failure.

We are used to encoding numbers on computers in binary.

Sometimes you want to distinguish between different types that have the same underlying representation.

Recently I’ve been thinking about the design of programming interfaces, especially in Haskell.

There are many reasons why to prefer dynamic linking to static but I’ll not go through them.

Motivation My first run-in with coroutines was with Python’s generators. 1 2 3 4 5 def ints(): i = 0 while True: yield i i += 1 This is a function that never returns.

Motivation In real world concurrent code you often come across the Future[Option[A]] type(where A is usually some concrete type).

Intro Lately I got sucked into Haskell.

Let’s take a look at Go-language functions.

Hello there.

This is not a tutorial.

I did a tutorial how to set up everything using IntelliJ a while ago.

I’ve done some research a while ago on union types and found a nice implementation by Miles Sabin but it only works for declaring types of function parameters.

I was doing my homework today(yes I am aware I should be enjoying myself on 30th December) and had some problems with concatenating possibly null strings in LINQ.

I just recently scratched the surface with scalaz.

Ever tried to write a generic singleton?

Today I was hanging in the #scala IRC channel and somebody came along(forgot the nick, sorry) and asked about some compilation error.

This week I felt the impulse to express myself multiple times.

I use scala on Android and I don’t like the integrated database API.

I’m attending Algorithms and data structures class this semester.

I’ve seen this great talk by Daniel Spiewak on Functional Compilers.

DISCLAIMER: This is about my opinion.

This week’s post is a bit different.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m a huge linux fan.

For me the highlight of this week was discovering Bootstrap.
