I recently realized I had to delete my YouTube app.

I recently discovered Textual, a Python library for building terminal UI applications and thought it would be fun to figure out how to package an application that is built with textual for Linux, macOS and Windows.

Git has been around since 2005 and has become the de-facto standard for controlling versions of source code.

Monorepos are great.

Recently I came across the concept of "messing up as much as possible" so one can learn as much as possible.

The most significant art exhibit I ever attended to date was the 2013 remake of a 1969 art show in Bern, Switzerland called "Live In Your Head: When Attitudes Become Form" where Harald Szeemann "wanted to show everything that we had not yet seen, everythi…

Recently I've been interested in generating "3D" acoustic soundscapes; I looked into tools that allow creation and rendering of such immersive audio scenes.

I never learned about containers.

I recently quit my job at Butterfly Network and am now spending some time writing code I am excited for, covering topics I want to learn more about.

As a computer scientists working on image processing algorithms I know about the frustrating process of hunting bugs on massively-parallel architectures like GPUs.

Inspired by an old but brilliant Clifford Stoll video and by my desire to get back into running experiments and reporting the results, I recently set out to measure the speed of sound using a set of Roland CS-10EM binaural microphones and a Zoom H2n I bor…

As sometimes is the case I'm a bit late to the game when it comes to new technologies.

At a high level backfilling in Airflow is a mechanism that allows (re-)execution of Airflow DAG instances for a specific time interval.

Over the last 3 years I read and listened to a number of books.

If you ever wrote software or designed hardware in a regulated industry, it is very possible that you interfaced within a Quality Management System (QMS).

A common gotcha when working with airflow is to determine when a DAG is going to execute, and what the execution date-time is going to be when it executes.

This is a new blog that will replace my old echelon blog.

During the emergence of electronic communication, the two scientists/engineers Carl Friedrich Gauss and Wilhelm Eduard Weber built the first electrical communications line in Goettingen, Germany.
