After using James Howell's Org Teach for a number of semesters, there was one thing that was bothering me with the reproduction of images (and code) between slides and handouts.

The new version of the WCAG requires PDFs (and all online content posted to LMS) to be properly tagged for screen readers.

Here are some notes about installing Guix SD onto a new system from an existing configuration.

tl;dr: do not create programming languages out of application data.

In this post, we build an interpreter over boolean expressions using ANTLR and Maven.

Please, just turn on diff style 3.

We can easily identify mail servers with MX records.

Notebooks represent an important improvement for interactive and iterative research.

Here are some terrible plots that tell little about data, very little.

Here's a fun animation of how variables relate to each other within a single method using symbolic states.

Org-Mode is a great way to store TODO items, store notes, and keep track of projects.

Once again, it is time to announce a new GPG key.

Previously, I discussed changing the generation of this site.

Debugging Java programs in Emacs has been a goal and overall feature I have wanted for some time.

When reviewing code, it's often necessary to pull the changes under review.

There are many blog posts which extol the foundations of writing good, communicative commit messages.

Another brief digression into organizing source code and projects.

Small tangent into the basic, how to organize research papers and related artifacts.

"Yesterday, you said tomorrow."

There are many posts already out about how to host static sites in S3 and CloudFront.

In a previous post, I discussed a new static site generation process being used for this blog.

Using AWS CloudFormation to configure AWS CloudWatch Events to target ECS is not as well documented as it should be.

A brief overview (read instructions) on setting up a new NixOS system with LVM on LUKS on md.

NixOS is a new kind of GNU/Linux distribution, borrowing the ideas of functional programming languages to bring about a revolution of how we think about operating systems and software development.

For a few years, I've been using Hugo for blog generation.

Configuring conky to display a count and symbol of new mail turned out to be more tricky than I had originally anticipated.

Today I'm announcing my GPG transition from my old, and now expired, GPG key: DAEE96513758BF6337F71E491066BA71A5F56C58 and 8FCAF4F0CBB0BB9C590C8ED11CFA8A9CD949D956 to a new master key 932F3E8E1C0F4A9895D7B8B8B0CAA28A02958308.

Previously, in Git in Reverse, we learned about Git and how it internally stores information.

In this post, we will go through the steps to get coreboot compiled and installed on a Lenovo x230 laptop.

One of the untold benefits of having a runtime is the ability for that runtime to enable loading and unloading code while the runtime is active.

We all make mistakes.

Developing Elixir/OTP applications is an enlightening, mind-boggling, and ultimately enjoyable experience.

It is certainly counter-intuitive to learn to drive by first going backwards, so why learn how to use Git in reverse?

There's a certain art to editing hunks, seemingly arcane.

This page is dedicated to general discussion of distributed systems, references to general overviews and the like.

Many Vim users may have, accidentally or not, discovered the dot (.) command in Vim.

This is the start of a series of posts about better Vim usage.

This is the last post in the series on real-time systems.

This is the second post in a series on real-time systems tangential to the Hadoop ecosystem.

The following post is one in the series of real-time systems tangential to the Hadoop ecosystem.
