What is Good Friday? Good Friday is an annual commemoration on the Friday before Easter Sunday to mark the day when Jesus Christ was crucified. Having been arrested and sentenced to death by Pontius Pilate, the governor of the Roman province of Judaea, Christ was flogged, had a crown of thorns placed on his head – to ridicule his title as ‘king of the Jews’ – and made to carry the cross to the place of crucifixion outside the walls of Jerusalem. Here he was nailed to the cross and crucified.

The streaming device competition gained a new entrant just a few months ago when the Google 4K TV Streamer debuted, replacing the relatively shortlived Chromecast with Google TV dongle. Google pitched the TV Streamer as a big improvement over the Chromecast, and so far that seems to be right on the money. The Google TV Streamer is also right for the money during Amazon’s limited-time 21% off deal that drops the price lower than ever to just $79. The only discouraging words to greet the Google 4

Procedural Textures with Hash Functions and Hash Playground I'm the sort of person who gets very excited when simple rules create complex behaviour. The other day, I needed a simple hash function that maps $(x, y)$ coordinates to a colour, and found a straightforward equation that ended up being astoundingly rich. Hence this post; to talk about and play with this function. TL;DR: The boolean predicate $(c_x \, x + c_y \, y + c_{xy} \, x \, y + c_{x^2} \, x^2 + c_{y^2} \, y^2)$ $\mathrm{mod} \

After nearly a decade of building embedded systems in C, C++, and Rust, I’ve somehow ended up writing Haskell for a living. If you’d asked me about functional programming a few years ago, I would have told you it was self-indulgent academic baloney—and then I stumbled into people using it for real-time systems where microseconds can mean literal life or death.

A customer asked for help with a longstanding but low-frequency hang that they have never been able to figure out. From what they could tell, their UI thread was calling into the kernel, and the call simply hung for no apparent reason. Unfortunately, the kernel dump couldn’t show a stack from user mode because the stack had been paged out.
