I implemented the PT_LSTM for Argonaut about 3 weeks ago but have been pulled into $dayjob again for another surge of attention demand to get through audit season, so, I haven’t even had time to journal the update.

I’ve implemented the basic LSTM model with Tensorflow’s Keras API, and tests look promising.

Prophet re-integration in the new “plugin” based Tetsuo/Argonaut build went well.

Sneak peak at an early draft after bringing in CatBoost support: https://paste.silogroup.org/xoqayipuni.py The new model is slow as shit, but it works.

After playing around a bit with different ideas, I’ve decided to build a big wrapper library for like 6 different types of forecasting engines with a common interface.

Tetsuo MKV Centurion is dead.

Better, but still nothing really notable.

Well, it didn’t go well.

Since I literally cannot help myself, I continued testing, and, found a flaw with the directional accuracy metric I was using, and added in some additional metrics for existing trend capturing for forecast selection.

My pet project, Tetsuo, is finally rewritten.

The seasons are changing, and it’s a beautiful part of the country for that.

Time for a camp fire monologue.

It does appear that in recent years, there have been attempts to influence societal attitudes in ways that feel out of sync with the values and beliefs of large segments of the population.

Tonight it’s surf & turf at the house of Punches.

I’ve laid around enough.

I finally took a vacation.

I finally am seeing progress in getting someone in to pick up some of the load so I can do anything but work.

NAS Project The NAS project was fun.

So, I finally got a few days off, and it’s been GLORIOUS.

So, after observing my secret project in motion for a while and determining it to be largely a failure, though one with interesting and odd results that show some promise, and after spending a few weeks mulling over what the potential impact would be if I…

So, a while back I posted an article on setting FIPS mode for CentOS 9, but it was originally supposed to be an article on DISA STIG hardening, and, unfortunately at the time of that writing, the OSCAP profiles were not in a mature enough state where that…

As you climb, I climb.

Life is not complex, but, we are.

It’s been about a month since I’ve posted, and I’m trying to get better about being more regular.

The last few days have been eventful.

I’ve been moving things around on the SG portfolio all day, with a little flurry of announcements, some good, some regrettably retiring projects I either don’t have time to work on anymore, or that I feel are holding back the whole effort.

I went on ahead and set up the new repos for Dyad.

The roaring murmor everyone was running with, that’s been churning since last year, some time yesterday around 1700 ET, came to a halt.

There’s not much difference between a liar and a thief when the lie is not defensive towards their own survival.

Today, I will pontificate.

Earlier this month, RHEL’s executive team decided to close public access to their indisputably GPL-licensed upstream contributions.

Things are calmer than ever.

Well, I’m finally where I can take a couple days off and kick back.

I’ve hardened a preprod and prod environment for hosting the new site.

Summer keeps teasing me.

I am still resting up in between the current next phase of Pyrois / Dark Horse Linux to work on other projects so I don’t fall behind.

At this point, DHLP is compiling up to LFS CH. 8.

So, as it’s nearing a bootable ISO, some stages of development seem to be forming in terms of expectations.

I’ve done something I think is interesting.

Our Food Sucks, and it’s caused by Liars So as it turns out, when you buy food at the grocery store, what you are purchasing is not your grandfather’s food.

I’ve got a keyboard on the frits, so I’ll give this post about one more try before I put my fist through this keyboard and go on vacation until a new one arrives.
