I’ve been long fascinated by the endless online debates about whether the infinite decimal expansion 0.9999… is exactly equal to 1. The canonical answer is yes. But there’s a considerable number of blogs that will try to convince you otherwise — and in the process, expose the sinister machinations of Big Math. What’s unique about this situation is that while it feels like bog-standard online crackpottery, it’s sort of running in reverse. The belief that 0.x must be less than 1.y makes perfect s

MicroSD cards seem to be the preferred storage for Raspberry Pis and many other SBCs. Of course, there's other applications for microSD cards -- cameras, smart phones, gaming consoles...and other stuff I'm sure. But sooner or later, people start to run into issues with their microSD cards, which begs a question -- just how reliable are they? When I first started searching around for an answer, I got a range of different answers -- some people said "modern flash should last practically forever";

A version of this post was first published on MapsAll. In 1995, musician and producer Brian Eno made a profound observation about computer sequencers that has become increasingly relevant in our AI-powered world: “The great benefit of computer sequencers is that they remove the issue of skill, and replace it with the issue of judgement. With Cubase or Photoshop, anybody can actually do anything, and you can make stuff that sounds very much like stuff you’d hear on the radio, or looks very much

This article began life as a talk I gave in late 2024. I love formal methods—I should say that to begin with, because this article is mostly about what doesn’t work when trying to do FM projects. Over the last 20 years, formal methods have grown and grown, and I’m proud to say that Galois has made its own contributions to this success. I made a lot of mistakes when I was scoping and running formal methods projects. I’d like other people to avoid the pitfalls I fell into, and hopefully make bigg

Yes, but by doing it once you can install it on any distro. Many Linux app developers nowadays prefer approaches like Flatpak because it's actually less effort in the end. This way you don't need to support every distro and therefore don't complaints like xy doesn't work on Distro z. I can't post links but see the "Building your first Flatpak" page to get started.

This loss is a fundamental aspect of how computers operate. For example, when a computer adds two numbers together, it returns a single number for the total: 2 + 2 = 4. There’s a loss of information as you go from two numbers to one. You could have added 2 and 2, or you could have combined 1 and 3. The missing information makes the calculation irreversible. Computers that process information this way — and almost all of them do — are always going to lose some information as heat, no matter what.

It didn't take long, even when the truly incorrect tools of only a circular saw and an oscillating multitool. I sealed up the ends using end cut sealer and called it a day. It works great and honestly I kind of like it better than a lot of my other chairs.

When I wrote about the length of file names in early Unix, I noted that inode numbers were unsigned 16-bit integers and thus you could only have at most 65,536 inodes in any given filesystem. Over on the Fediverse, JdeBP correctly noted that I had an off by one error. The original Unix directory entry format used a zero inode number to mark deleted entries, which meant that you couldn't actually use inode zero for anything (not even the root directory of the filesystem, which needed a non-zero i

Wes Anderson’s new film, “The Phoenician Scheme,” is a funny-ha-ha comedy, but there’s nothing funny about its story, which involves a wealthy industrialist’s attempts to realize a grandiose infrastructure project. Anderson’s signature is instantly recognizable in the movie’s decorative production design, its frontal and symmetrical framings, and its antic, densely plotted story—and equally in the fact that it is a violent and death-haunted action film, filled with fights and chases. Yet, compar

Time to Rethink PostgreSQL Storage Burak Yucesoy Principal Software Engineer Cloud storage was built around the limits of old hardware. Spinning hard drives (HDDs) were slow and fragile. So, early on cloud providers moved storage off of servers. They used network-attached disks to boost durability and scalability. But hardware has evolved. Today, you can get 2.5 million IOPS from a $600 NVMe SSD [1]. By contrast, pushing 2.5 million IOPS through Aurora would cost you $1.3M per month. With NVMe

Generative AI comes in many forms. Increasingly, though, it’s marketed the same way: with human names and personas that make it feel less like code and more like a co-worker.
