A while back, as part of my ever so slightly over-engineered noise reduction effort on the basement cluster, a simple fan manager daemon was developed.

This may lead to accusations of over-engineering, but I solved a problem and had fun while doing so.

Building a chassis for a 19" 1U four node cluster of StarFive VisionFive2 boards.

Imagine having JSON documents of varying structure from which you need to efficiently extract a small specific selection of values.

Anyone who says “less is more” is of course high, stupid or both.

During a recent project I encountered memory allocation failures in a LISP system, seemingly caused by poor garbage collector performance.

HTTP/2 is a symptom of a disease; it is a terribly ill conceived deterioration of the otherwise pretty good HTTP/1.1 protocol.

It continues to amaze me when I look at other peoples code, how many good developers think in signed integers.
