Journal

Jan 12, 2026 - It’s been almost eleven years since the creation of “PEP 492 – Coroutines with async and await syntax” by Yury Selivanov. I’ve been writing asynchronous Python on and off for about a decade, and still, async/await is the most complex part of Python for me. Recently, I wrote a synchronous generator that yields results from an asynchronous iterable. What a ride! Back in the days of the PEP 492, Yury was working on EdgeDB, a wrapper layer around PostgreSQL. In a way, he still is, but it’s called Gel, and is a part of Vercel (but the page title still says EdgeDB, lol).

Let’s see what the people working on PEP 492 are up to:

  • Guido van Rossum - the creator and benevolent dictator of Python. Retired from Dropbox in 2019, just to join Microsoft as a Distinguished Engineer in 2020.

  • Victor Stinner - one of the performance-focused Python core contributors. These days, his good work is paid for by IBM through Red Hat.

  • Elvis Pranskevichus - Yury’s buddy, working with him in Vercel.

  • Andrew Svetlov - aiohttp maintainer, works as a VP of Engineering at Apolo.US, which at first glance looks the same as a hundred other AI startups.

  • Łukasz Langa - ex-Facebook core Python developer, author of Black, and release manager. Moved to a mid-sized Polish town, and doesn’t show up much.

  • Greg Ewing - the winner of the ugliest homepage award.

  • Stephen J. Turnbull - seemingly, a Mailman (The GNU Mailing List manager) maintainer.

  • Brett Cannon - Principal Software Engineer at Microsoft in Canada and Python core developer.

  • Alyssa Coghlan - Nicholas, at the time of the PEP, CPython core and packaging developer, supported by an Australian bank. Surprisingly, not working on uv.

The rest of the people I never heard about:

  • Paul Moore - core developer of Python and pip.

  • Nathaniel Smith - a scientist, doing science stuff, but somehow deep in the Python community.

  • Stefan Behnel - core developer of Python, maintainer of Cython and lxml.

  • Paul Sokolovsky - author of a minimalistic Python dialect and a web framework written in that dialect.

  • Victor Petrovykh - another member of the EdgeDB mafia.

  • Steven D’Aprano - the only guy who got suspended from being a Core Developer for public misconduct.

  • Ethan Furman

  • Jim J. Jewett

Jan 12, 2026 - I got curious if smartphone notifications can be possibly implemented in a privacy-preserving fashion (and to what extent). My reading list: UnifiedPush - Push notifications, security and privacy

Jan 11, 2026 - Added Solarized colors for Shibuya theme

Jan 10, 2026 - Going through my old GitHub stars, I rediscovered Shibuya theme, courtesy of Hsiaoming Yang. The main reason to switch is pydata theme shipping 1.4 MB of fontawesome for no good reason. Also, I love how minimal the theme looks, leaving more space for the content. I wish it supported Solarized color scheme.

Jan 10, 2026 - scottrogowski/code2flow - Pretty good call graphs for dynamic languages

Jan 10, 2026 - Added My GitHub stars

Jan 09, 2026 - Mildly interesting idea: use GitHub CLI to export repos I starred and inject this information into my public journal.

gh api --paginate users/peterdemin/starred --header 'Accept: application/vnd.github.star+json' | jq . > gh-stars.json

Jan 09, 2026 - Here’s some food for thought. We got some nice green seedless grapes from Costco, but they were super tart. If you let unripe grapes sit on a dark shelf for a couple of days, they’ll get sweeter. But they won’t get more callories, because of the laws of conservation. The grape is sealed and its carbohydrates don’t go anywhere. But my mind tricks me into thinking that sweet food provides more energy.

Jan 06, 2026 - Added Personal cloud VM on Google Cloud Platform free tier

Jan 03, 2026 - After watching Mr. Robot I got curious about IPFS in general and Anna’s Archive in particular. I found this gem in Anna’s Archive Git repo:

Here is an extreme case for most, but very real for Anna’s Archive, Libgen or Z-Library operators.

  • If you are under heavy police pressure from a surveillance government like the US, you are better off using a Live USB and a VPN with killswitch enabled when connecting to your server(s), avoid DNS leaks to Google or your ISP, and so on.

  • Consider using a disposable device for it. Canvas fingerprinting is a real thing.

  • Consider using a disposable disk for it and be prepared to dump it away. Disk forensics is also a thing.

  • Proton suite is unsafe and a honeypot, please do not use it. Tuta is a much better option.

  • Tor is slow, overhyped, flagged by tons of web firewalls, and not useful for pirating. Your traffic will stand out like a bright red light. I would strongly discourage using it for clearnet browsing. Hosting and browsing onion services is fine.

  • You will need to connect with people on platforms like Signal or Telegram, where you need to use a phone number to register. Services like https://hstock.org and https://sms-activate.org do help a lot. If you use yours and police request your data, you are fucked.

  • Do not expect services to encrypt your data, do it yourself. E2EE is a fairytale unless you actually set it up.

Get cryptocurrency in an anonymous way, and start using it!

I feel something romantic about this level of paranoia. Luckily, neiter I nor anyone I’ve ever met had to apply any of these technics.

Dec 31, 2025 - Updated My RSS feed reader setup with the new subscriptions:

Dec 30, 2025 - I got bored enough to add an RSS feed to this journal. Having a custom plain-text format for these records, I had to add a custom Atom generator. Overall it was a smooth sailing, with two gotchas:

  1. CommaFeed (at least) doesn’t like escaped HTML inside content fields, even if type="html". So I had to switch to CDATA encoding.

  2. Python’s builtin xml.etree library doesn’t support CDATA (CPython#81055 hanging from 2019).

  3. So I switched to lxml that does. Turns out lxml.etree is slightly incompatible in managing namespaces. It took a bit of googling to find out, that instead of ET.register_namespace('', 'http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom'), I should do ET.Element(..., nsmap={None: 'http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom'}).

So, business as usual.

Dec 29, 2025 - cockpit-project/cockpit-machines - Cockpit UI for virtual machines

Dec 29, 2025 - I’m continuing my exodus from greedy (also free and privacy-preserving) Google infrastructure for my personal files. So far, I’ve got a nice 4 TB SSD drive and repurposed an old 4 TB HDD to set up Immich with a backup through Syncthing. I also set up another Syncthing folder to backup Google Drive from my laptop (which runs Google Drive client to download all files). It’s fine so far, except that few random photos got their creation date in a far-far future, so they show up at the top. On a related note, Paul Baecher published Incremental backups of Gmail takeouts. I asked him if he automated downloads from the Takeout, and he suggested trying an option to pull email backups through Google Drive, which has a proper client. That would require having enough space in Google Drive to store all emails, of course. For uninititated, last year Google added authentication for downloading from the takeout links, so I can’t use wget in a shell script on the server. Currently, I download the archive to my laptop and then scp it to the server, which is extremely lame.

Dec 29, 2025 - On the third day of Christmas I managed to migrate from Virtualbox to libvirt. I learned about virtiofs - a way to share directories with libvirt VMs, similar to shared folders of VirtualBox, but with manual mounting on the guest side. I tried Cockpit and Cockpit-machines, which is a WebUI to libvirt, but it didn’t provide enough functionality (which I thought is extremely basic). I learned some obscure factoids about cloud-init, but still very confused. It’s such a weird combination of convenience and complexity. I landed on vagrant-libvirt provider, and made just a few changes to my Vagrantfile to adjust.

I wish I could remove Vagrant from my setup, but that would mean reimplementing the following steps, that I’m not too keen on:

  1. SSH key provisioning.

  2. Network configuration with static IP address for the guest and port forwarding.

  3. Mounting the virtiofs mounts.

After all this good work, I looked at my GitHub repo with a lonely 1 star, and “unpublished” it. It’s a fun thing to hack around, but a hard thing to share with other people. So far, I learned that most people are pretty secretive about their home media library setup, and not interested in cooperating or consolidating.

Dec 27, 2025 - dmacvicar/terraform-provider-libvirt - Terraform provider to provision infrastructure with Linux’s KVM using libvirt

Dec 27, 2025 - Inspired by Clan and other Nix stories, I attempted to migrate my silly Vagrant+VirtualBox home setup to Terraform+KVM. I’m not very familiar with either, so I thought that’s gonna be a fun learning experience. In a way, it was, but I learned not what I was hoping to. I started at Medium’s article Vagrant and VirtualBox Are No Longer Enough: Why KVM and Terraform Are the Future of DevOps. AI-generated illustration was the first sign, but I ignored it. Looking at the article now, it’s obvious to me now, that it’s an AI slop through and through. Fuck you, Mohammad Reza Fadaei, you lazy piece of shit.

The first challenge came from Terraform provider for libvirtd being not an “official” Hashicorp thing, but a “learning platform” for a random stranger (No offense, Duncan Mac-Vicar P., thanks for doing what you’re doing).

The second challenge was that the Duncan’s provider got a major rewrite and all Terraform recipes from the tutorial had to be migrated.

The third challenge was that Ubuntu 22.04 has some weird issue in libvirt apparmor configuraion. Apparently, a VM doesn’t get permissions to any of the volumes created specifically for it. There should be a script that generates a list of volume paths somewhere, but who knows what happened to it.

After 3 hours of battling every part of the “Future of DevOps”, my ChatGPT browser tab started to run out of memory, and I gave up. Looking back, I love how simple my Vagrant setup is, and I want to extend my gratitude to Mitchell Hashimoto for building it. I still want to make my silly home VM work without dependency on any external dependencies (except stable Ubuntu/Debian repo), so if I get more time for this project, I’ll try vibing raw libvirt config.

Dec 23, 2025 - sailing the sea: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46363366

Dec 21, 2025 - While reading “Material World” by Ed Conway, I many times thought about Oxygen Not Included, which is a cartoonistic survival game about a settlement deep underground. Being deep means they don’t get free solar and wind power, no access to virtually unlimited fresh water, and, as the title suggests, no oxygen. Such hermetic setup forces player into constant mining of resources (they made up oxylite, a stone that produces oxygen). As population grows, you need more and more resources, that progressively become hard to get. Fun game, totally recommend. Another thought, that I keep coming back to again and again after finishing the book, is that even farming depends on fossil fuels. Sometimes in mass media you can get an idea, that global warming and rising CO2 levels are due to the greed of filthy crude oil oligarhs. But the we need fossil fuels to produce fertilisers, without which it would be impossible to grow enough food to feed the evergrowing population of Earth. Building a single windmill power generator requires vast amounts of concrete and steel, producing which takes about a year worth of eletricity that windmill generates. It’s a great book, and I totally recommend it as well.

Nov 23, 2025 - this comment left me bitter and confused:

Well it took me 2 full-time weeks to properly implement a RAG-based system so that it found actually relevant data and did not hallucinate. Had to:

  • write an evaluation pipeline to automate quality testing

  • add a query rewriting step to explore more options during search

  • add hybrid BM-25+vector search with proper rank fusion

  • tune all the hyperparameters for best results (like weight bias for bm25 vs. vector, how many documents to retrieve for analysis, how to chunk documents based on semantics)

  • parallelize the search pipeline to decrease wait times

  • add moderation

  • add a reranker to find best candidates

  • add background embedding calculation of user documents

  • lots of failure cases to iron out so that the prompt worked for most cases

Each step would take me more than two weeks, and still have gaps. But when you’re working alone, and you’re the only judge of your work, it’s easy to overestimate its quality.

Nov 11, 2025 - For years my life felt like a crazy race at break neck speeds, with great aspirations, challenges, achievements. Many times I asked myself: is this all there is to it? Other times I wondered: have I peaked; is it just downslide from here? And sometimes I feel like I won. The game is finished and I’m on top. Like in StarCraft, when all the enemies are neutralized, there’s no more threat, but you have an option to continue “playing”. Of course, at this point, there’s no play, just frolicing around aimlessly, and exploring the senseless limits. The lesson here, naturally, is that all these ideas are false, the hill has no top, it’s round like Earth itself.

Oct 09, 2025 - László Krasznahorkai won the 2025 Nobel prize in literature. I’ve never heard about this author, and never bothered with Nobel prize winners before. But this time I thought I take a look. The award is honoring Krasznahorkai “for his compelling and visionary oeuvre that, in the midst of apocalyptic terror, reaffirms the power of art.” You don’t find visionary oeuvre lying around every day, so I had to check, and it means “a book” in this case. Somewhat devour feculence moment for me.

Here’s an excerpt from NPR:

Satantango, Krasznahorkai’s first novel, came out in 1985. It’s about a pair of swindlers and a nearly abandoned collective farm. The book was made into a seven-hour movie in 1994. And The Melancholy of Resistance, which is one sentence that runs over 300 pages, is about a strange, ghostly circus appearing in a small town with a giant, dead stuffed whale.

Wow, wow, wow, hold on, what? Okay, I guess, that clarifies a couple moments for me. Mainly, should I ever check again on Nobel prize winners in literature.

Aug 31, 2025 - I rewatched Interstellar (2014) after it came up in a discussion of movie genre preferrences with my colleage, where we both agreed that it’s an outstanding movie for both sci-fi and non-sci-fi fans. Suprisingly, this time, it hit me more as a parent-child relations movie. Of course I loved how all space scenes are in total silence. To that point the score was brilliant as well. But the things that made me think the most are feelings of Coop and Murph. Dr. Mann’s monologue about survival instinct and human connection landed on me as a plot twist the first time I watched (ten years ago) but now I see how it supports the main theme.

One thing that makes this movie special to me, is a song by a Russian artist Dolphin, Слышишь, released the same year, as the movie, written from the Coop to Murph, including a verse of the unbearable longing experienced by Murph.

Aug 01, 2025 - Recently I had a conversation with a high-rank manager who didn’t see value in code ownership. He talked about design and ideas, but not people and tasks. This reminded me how past breakages were caused by people making changes without sufficient context. Or how a new team member spends a week on a task that takes twenty minutes. I’d like to split this context into three parts:

  1. System design - the pretty diagramming part, that is usually done well, covered in design docs and presentations. A good design, though, is so boring, that you can grasp the idea in ten minutes.

  2. Core principles - the ideas that influence how the design was produced. This is surprisingly variable between teams, never documented, and lives between an architect’s head and tribe knowledge. It’s also fluent, has many interpretations, and can be hardly expressed in words.

  3. Minute decision that are seldomly discussed but spread all over the code. This is the biggest chunk of the context, the meat and cause of all the quirks and optimizations.

Of all three, only the first one is available to people outside of the code owners. The other two take so much effort to maintain, that only the owners have the capacity to hold.

Jun 10, 2025 - Reading OpenAI’s practical guide to building agents got me thinking, that they position Agentic software not as an evolution of existing software. But as enabling new kind of software. The one that didn’t exist and wasn’t possible before. The one, that users have no intuition about, and no way to discover. Which reminded me of the time we were rolling out new features for a corporate chatbot to customers and really struggled to find creative ways of educating users that the bot has new capabilities. Let’s say you want to check if the bakery has products for your dietary restrictions. Would you go through a menu looking for the ingredients or would you look for an agentic interface? At least couple years ago, most people were avoiding these dumb nasty bots like fire. I’m not sure if it’s still true.

How many spam calls does it take for you to presume spam? How many linkedin autoreply ai comments does it take to presume all comments are ai? How many emails before you immediately presume phishing? How many rage baiting social posts do you need to see before you believe the entire site is composed of synthetic engagement? How many tinder bots do you need to interact with before you feel the entire app is dead? How many autodeny job application responses until you assume the next one is a ghost job posting? How many interactions with greedy people does it take to presume that it’s human nature?

While spam emails seem to be solved (at least in Gmail), I never pick up calls from unknown numbers and immediately delete messages from people out of my contact list. One thing I’d like to add to the list, is:

How many AI cheaters do you need to catch on the technical screening interview to incorporate a habit of doing IRL CAPTCHA challenges.

May 03, 2025 - Utsav Mamoria in his article “How to live an intellectually rich life” speaks about how ideas need to be diverse and abundant. The premise is that they would combine in unexpected ways to create new better ideas. However, the article being a combination of many stories and ideas doesn’t have any meaningful narrative, just the sum of its parts, that don’t really fit together.

Mar 30, 2025 - TIL about Amdahl’s Law.

The wikipedia article has this nice chart:

Amdahl's Law

Somewhat counter-intuitively, for the case when 90% (9/10th) of the task can be parallelized, splitting it into 10 workers, would not result in 10 times speed improvement. It won’t even be 9 times. The overall time of the task completion will only get faster by 5 times.

Wait, what?! We had this massively parallelizable task, 90%. Seems like the rest is peanuts. We divide 90% of the task between 10 workers, it gets done 10 times faster, right? Right, but, the remaining sequential 10% still take the same amount of time. 90% of original task time divided by 10 is 9%. The new proportion of parallel work is only ~47%, less than a half.

To illustrate the time improvement in this example with an equation:

\[ \begin{align}\begin{aligned}T_{1} &= 0.9 \times \frac{1}{1} + 0.1 \times 1 = 1\\T_{10} &= 0.9 \times \frac{1}{10} + 0.1 \times 1 = 0.19 \approx \frac{1}{5}\end{aligned}\end{align} \]

To put the units, it means that a task that a single worker completes in one hour, ten workers will do in 11 minutes and 24 seconds.

When hearing complaints from the students about how big the home assignments are and how they don’t have enough time to prepare for all the subjects, she always said: “You’ll take rest in afterlife.” For some students it sounded harsh, for other like a joke, but for all not much of an actionable advice. It took me many years to understand that the idea is sound. The life stops when you lay down in the coffin. Until then, the purpose of life is to live it. The more you do, the more capable you become of doing more. On the other hand, the mind at rest weakens rapidly. Humans adapt to good fast, and from the body’s perspective concerving energy is good. Optimizing for minimum effort to get maximum pleasure. Which is in contrast with a notion of productive life. One has push themselves out of the comfort zone to achieve the greatness. Taking rest is a step back rather then a mere pause.

Mar 14, 2025 - Reading CTO Handbook made me realize, that if I had a great startup idea and the right people around me, I would do things that I’ve never done before, many of which I deliberately chose not to do. I would also do a few nice things, but mostly the other kind.

Mar 14, 2025 - Some people, aspire for greater things, and manage to build their way to the goal. Other people are happy with what they got, maybe incrementally improve situation over time, or stay in the same place and enjoy themselves. And some people say: “Oh, if I had this and that, I would achieve great things, build something amazing.” Naturally, they never do, because that would put them in the first group. I’d say this is some kind of a mental block, that doesn’t let them to join one of the other groups. It makes them pathologically unhappy, leading them to put the blame on external forces, government, society, status, people, anything except for their own mindset. People who are messed up in the head and capable of action belong in the nuthouse. Messed up in the head but incapable of action - society burden. This is not a person’s property, it only applies to some aspects and only within some timeframe.

Mar 12, 2025 - ZachGoldberg/Startup-CTO-Handbook - The Startup CTO’s Handbook, a book covering leadership, management and technical topics for leaders of software engineering teams

Mar 05, 2025 - Something extremely important if you want to make a point. And absolutely insignificant for all other purposes. “Technicality”.

Mar 03, 2025 - A week-long vacation definitely helps with the unexplainable dreadful feelings. The best (and only) solution to work-related stress is to not work.

Mar 03, 2025 - I think Sean Goedecke is onto something in his post “Knowing where your engineer salary comes from”. While the post is inline with his recurring cornerstone of a mature-pragmattic-staff-engineer, he touches on a topic of different lenses to look onto a software project. Engineers focus on problem complexity (and solution simplicity), performance, architecture and whatnot. The bridge to business people is effort estimate in man hours. Which translates roughly to costs of implementation. That business people use to weight against the projected profits over the lifetime of the project (in years). Also, weighted against the potential return from other projects that team can do instead.

I’ve never seen profits enter the picture for engineering planning, os it’s often a kind of a dark area, of why is the deadline needs to be at this particular date.

Mar 02, 2025 - fingerthief/recommendarr - An LLM driven recommendation system based on Radarr and Sonarr library or watch history information

Mar 01, 2025 - Added Top Asked Meta (Facebook) Interview Questions for 2025

Mar 01, 2025 - Some questions should never be asked because they won’t be answered. Not because the answer is unknown, but because it’s not in the person’s interest to provide an honest one. This comes up a lot for opinion seeking. Person’s opinion about the topic influences other people’s opinion about this person. If a candidate is not super enthused about a company, they don’t get a job. If project manager says that their project is not the best opportunity of a lifetime and super bomb that changes everything, they will be in trouble. So you can’t ask them. Because their hands are tied. Their opinion belongs to their superiors, or public. Even you ask someone, what do they think of you, you’re not going to get an honest opinion. Because any negativity in the opinion may backfire in the future. So, here we are, in a bright shiny world, where everyone is super happy about everyone else. Except that half of marrieages end in divorce, people get laid of every year, and 90% of startups fail.

Feb 24, 2025 - tmiland/pgbackup - Automated PostgreSQL Backup on Linux

Feb 14, 2025 - TIL Talos Group of Cisco has 64 open-source repos on GitHub: https://github.com/Cisco-Talos. Most prominent is ClamAV - the only open source anti-virus toolkit. Of course it wasn’t originated inside of Cisco. And it wasn’t even the first acquisition. And Talos Group is kinda independent company under Cisco umbrella (based in Maryland, by the way). But still, I find this to be a cool piece of trivia.

Feb 13, 2025 - Sad resignation letter from Asahi Linux maintainer. I’ve never used or heard about Asahi Linux before. Or never cared about running Linux on Apple hardware, since MacOS is close enough to Linux for my uses. But the letter clicked with me of a few topics.

One is, hell is other people, including OSS. I love open-source, and most of my hobby projects are public. But not many of them see much external contribution. The most joy I get is when I’m heads-down working on them, not when I try to align with strangers.

Another is Conway’s Law:

[O]rganizations which design systems (in the broad sense used here) are constrained to produce designs which are copies of the communication structures of these organizations.

I see open-source as a great organizational structure to run software projects. But it’s still prone to the problems, that any human community has. I still wonder, though, can open-source projects governance be tweaked in ways, to solve it?..

Feb 13, 2025 - This is gold:

Rational ignorance is refraining from acquiring knowledge when the supposed cost of educating oneself on an issue exceeds the expected potential benefit that the knowledge would provide.

I’ve done it to so many topics, and had hard time explaining why exactly even to myself. Religion, politics, Android development, serverless, etc. So many things where I see the low value without having putting 1% effort into study. Of course, there are things that I ignore out of laziness and arrogance as well. But that’s off-topic.

Feb 12, 2025 - The topic that comes up from time to time is how frustrating the visa/greencard situation is. People wait for years or decades for a process that’s purpose is to wait. The system is run by people who are citizens and have no empathy to the people who are their customers. In fact, I don’t think they’re considering their applicants as customers at all. The system is a poorly masked adversarial filter.

Another adversarial filter I and many people in my social circle interact with a lot is technical interviews for software engineers. I’m not gonna say anything new regarding how frustrating and annoying the common process is. What’s interesting, though, is that being on the other side, interviewing other people, I get zero motivation to tweak the process to get feedback.

Jan 13, 2025 - One of the thoughts that I come back over and over again is how leetcode interviews are failing at letting good candidates pass. Sometimes candidates are so anxious, that they can’t put a for loop together. Even after building complex systems for a decade. Nothing new, I guess. The prerequisite for passing a leetcode interview is being comfortable with leetcode interviews.

Jan 05, 2025 - When watching movies, or (some) people on the street I keep catching myself thinking, that there many things that cause a great deal of distress for people, but are absent in my life:

  • War

  • Violence

  • Threats

  • Serious health issues

  • Drugs

  • Crime and criminals

  • Hatred

  • Racism

  • Discrimination

  • Poverty

  • Starvation

  • Blackmail

  • Guns

  • Adultery

  • Homelessness

  • Serious mental issues

That’s what allows me to engage in hobby projects, that don’t address any immediate pressing need. They are not without a challenge, but they bring me joy, and that’s their sole purpose.

Dec 26, 2024 - Thanks Nicola Iarocci for his review of the book “I love Russia” by Elena Kostyuchenko:

This book is written by an independent Russian journalist who worked at Novaja Gazeta for many years until it was banned. Mostly, these are reportages from the great rural Russia, far from the big cities (the story from small villages on the high-speed train line between Moscow and St. Petersburg is one of the best). I Love Russia helps us understand today’s deep Russia and the consequences of the fall of the USSR and the advent of Putin. It is also a love letter to the homeland, hence the title, but it does not bend to the official narrative; quite the opposite.

I probably won’t read the book, but I will recommend it to people who want to learn more about the modern Russian history.

Dec 17, 2024 - Coming back to Karpman Drama Triangle, I think how “Who is right” and “Who is wrong” are drama-ignited questions. They don’t serve a purpose of resolving a conflict, and creating a learning moment. They fight fire with gasoline, ignited by drama, fueling more drama. When a person’s goal is to prove they’re right, solution is out of the picture.

Dec 12, 2024 - There seems to be an inherent conflict living in a society, where person’s value is tied to other peoples’ perceptions and needs. Whereas person wants to be have their value defined by merit, but only gets other peoples’ opinions.

Dec 10, 2024 - Existential crisis minute. Metaphor mode.

  1. A stock chart, jumping up and down every minute. Every move is a strict sum of asks and bids executed in order. And yet, the stock value can’t be predicted even 1 second ahead.

  2. A man is running in a forest, jumping over falling trees and ducking under branches. Except that the forest is dark, the man can’t see anything. Sometimes, he guesses right; sometimes, he hits the branch, falls, gets up, and keeps running. The position of every tree and branch is predetermined and exact for each moment in time, yet it is unknown to the man.

  3. An incomprehensible complex multidimensional visualization of a microorganism cell state with the exact number of molecules, atoms, and electrons.

  4. The same visualization but for each moment of its life.

  5. The same visualization but for a person.

  6. The same visualization but for all of humanity.

  7. A simplified version of it, showing just one aspect as a black curve on a flat white sheet of paper.

  8. A coin scratches a layer of paint off the single-line chart, revealing the essence of life progression on Earth.

  9. A bar chart showing the amount of energy consumed by a person each day of his life.

  10. Another bar chart for the sum value of all material exchanges.

  11. Another, for the value of immaterial exchanges.

  12. A bend of a line representing the total net value of a particular life year-by-year.

  13. A point at which the line crosses zero.

  14. A quick flash in the infinite history of the universe that had humanity.

  15. A short stretch of timeline labeled “carbon-based life”.

Nov 18, 2024 - I get this feeling in the morning, that I need to make the last push and get it done. And it’s confusing, because there’s no finish line. No matter what gets done, the life goes on, and it packs more of the same. Maybe it’s a natural desire to accomplish something, to achieve a goal. The problem is that there’s no single goal, a lot of things happen in parallel. Something starts, something finishes, and some things just die off. Maybe I just need a vacation. Get rested. And keep running without this weird feeling.

The hypothetical situation of where you land in a position, where all the hard stuff is behind. You can relax and just enjoy yourself.

Nov 15, 2024 - Quick reminder:

  1. War never changes.

  2. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering.

  3. Also, insatiable greed of ambitious men.

  4. Those who are reluctant to feed their own army shall feed a foreign army.

Sep 21, 2024 - This is good: The Collapse of Self-Worth in the Digital Age. The part that resonated with me most:

when a person’s innate value is replaced with exchange value, it is as if we’ve been reduced to “a mere jelly.”

I remember the times where I put maximum effort and long hours over more than a year to achieve the next invidividual contributer level. Eventually, with the project success, I got it. My level became IC5, as opposed to the measly IC4. Then I got some form of a depression. Because my whole self-worth was reduced to number 5 by the authority, that I put most of my waking hours in.

Sep 02, 2024 - Someone told once a theory that the most comfortable bed wouldn’t the softest one. It would be a bed that perfectly follows your body shape and provides equal support everywhere. That makes sense to me. You can go to a beach, lie in sand a wiggle a bit, until you shape up the sand around your body. But there’re always many distractions, like sun, wind, noise, and insects, eww. Or maybe the sensory deprivation tank, where you float in dense salty water in complete silence and darkness. I’m not sure how would it work with turning around, or involuntary movements during the sleep. Mark Rober made a Liquid Sand Hot Tub video where he explains the sensation of being submerged under sand, as a weighted blanket. The sand is pretty irritating for a sleep, though. Hygiene of using sand pit as long-term bed is also questionable.

  2. NVDA dipped down, taking FSELX with it. The news show that they’re going to come back strong soon.

  3. PDD is bonkers, random off-market jumper.

  4. Macy’s stable, time to start stocking up (from MSFT, for example) for November.

  2. Nvidia dipped a little bit on the overall growth trend. NVDA

  3. What the hell is this PDD company? It tanked a lot. It’s last year has been very volatile. PDD

  4. Just look at this MRM shit. Closed at $2.48, opened at $7.01. Daytrading my ass.

  5. Macy’s got a bad look from big guys and going down. Not all the way to the bottom just yet, let’s take a look in 5 days.

Aug 24, 2024 - I like the idea how software systems are complex and complicated. Complex stands for inherent problem the software solves. Complications come from solving the problem in a wrong way. It could be using bad abstraction, over-engineering, inadequate team structure resulting in mixed component responsibilities. Software is meant to solve the complexity of the real world problem, but it always introduces unnecessary complications for maintainers. Complexity can’t reduced, as it is inherent to the problem at hand, while complications constitute technical debt, that can and should be addressed but rarely is. The same thinking can be applied to life in general. The inherent conflict of life is that it’s finite and energy consuming. Besides that, most of the struggles we go through are artificial complications. The worst examples of such struggles come up when complications take over complexity. People get caught in the minutiae of everyday life, chasing synthetic goals, imposed by other people who have no interest in their wellbeing. Governments create laws and procedures that are designed to prevent crime, but make everyones lifes harder. Rich people find ways to suck money from poor. Personal decisions must go through an approval of some external entity. Social contracts prevent expression of internal desires.

Aug 07, 2024 - I was watching Expanse and was fascinated by their handheld devices (phones?). I liked the way they wirelessly cast screen using two-fingers swipe up in the direction of the cast target. I also liked how they share message attachments. The operating systems they are running seem to provide consistent experience across devices, so I assume there’s a tight integration. What I liked most is that attachments contained two kinds formats. One was a presentation layer, similar to a static HTML page. Another was data (like JSON, or CSV) that can be direcly imported to a database or Jupyter Notebook. Like one time a person sent a bunch of people profiles, and the other side reviewed them and imported to their contacts. Another time it was asteroid coordinates, that were presented as an interactive 3D model, but also could be imported into the navigational system.

I wonder if we can build this today. Each attachment would be an archive with HTML file that pulls raw data from a JSON file sitting by its side. But also having a “Download” button that exposes the data file directly. Or maybe a single HTML file with all the small data and assets embedded, and large assets pulled from S3.

Aug 01, 2024 - I find this to be an interesting phenomena in driving. When there are two lanes and there’s a merge ahead from the right lane. In the perfect world the merge is fair, the cars from the left and right lane alternate and both lanes go at the same speed.But what happens instead is some cars from the right lane merge early breaking the alternation order. Then the car from behind in the right lane goes ahead and merges before the early merger. And this breaks the pattern so that some cars from the right lane get into the left lane without a car between them. The result is that the right lane goes faster.

While he’s moving the limbs, the mud stays liquid. When he stops moving, the surface of mud dries out and becomes hard and sharp crust. The crust traps the man an making any movement is now takes significant effort and hurts. Without movement it’s comfortable, though.

Jun 26, 2024 - When you look at life back, you can tell the defining traits of your personality and the key decisions you made a long time back. Sometimes they do feel like a big deal, and you know it’s important right away. Sometimes it’s just minutae that doesn’t seem of any significance in short term. And sometimes we obsess a lot about something that we can’t even remember five years down the road. But never have I made a critical decision thinking how would I feel about it when I’m fifty. Something about how the dots get connected once you look back.

Jun 17, 2024 - I have this idea of a fat cat.

fat cat

Fat cat lives a lavish life, with all needs and desires satisfied. The cat is incapable of surviving on his own, though.

In order to maintain agility he has to sacrifise the comfort, and intentionally lower the quality of life. If he settles for too long, the fat will bloat the body and kill the cat with a heart attack.

Rock profile

The faraway rock profile was like an ancient battleship of the seas outlined by stars. The long swish of it lifted on an invisible wave with syllables of boomerang antennae, funnels arcing back, a pi-shaped up-thrusting at the stern.

—Muad’Dib by Frank Herbert.

Jan 23, 2024 - One thing that seems to be a upside of Golang as compared to Python, is that it’s harder to do the wrong thing. Which is true due to typing, obviously. But also for the toolset. With Python, you gotta be disciplined to keep your third-party requirements in order. It’s not much work, but you also can get away without doing it. And if there’s no one to catch you in action, this might bite years later. You hire smart people, who know their stuff, but don’t know Python (and are not really into learning the advanced topics of Python, because they are hired for the stuff they know well). And they do whatever is easier to get things done. And it’s not always the right thing to do.

The path of least resistance in Python is:

  • no type annotations

  • no linter

  • no autoformatter

  • no requirement files (and no version pinning)

  • no packaging

  • no meaningful module and class breakdown

  • no sensible docstrings or docs website.

I’m not saying this is how all the projects go. But this is what you might get if you don’t put any experienced folks on the project.

Whereas with Golang, you have to get the most of the things right, or it won’t work at all. :mic-drop:

Jan 15, 2024 - Listening to Дельфин — ПРОЩАЙ ОРУЖИЕ. From song to song, he touches on the same set of topics. These are the same topics he touched on in his previous album. And the album before that. It’s as if a person has, say, 3-4 major themes in life. And whenever he gets inspiration, it’s gonna be something along those lines. This made me think about the major themes for me and the people I know. So far, the morning slumber theory checks out.

Lil’ help from GPT4:

Psychology and Personal Development: In psychology, especially in the field of personality and identity studies, there’s an understanding that people often have core beliefs, values, and experiences that shape their identity and worldview. This is sometimes explored in the context of life stories or narrative identity, where people construct their identities based on key life events and themes.

Literary Studies: In literature, this concept is often discussed in terms of an author’s thematic preoccupations or motifs. Some authors and artists are known for returning to the same themes, questions, or motifs throughout their work, which can be a reflection of their personal obsessions, experiences, or worldview.

Keywords: core beliefs, core values, cornerstone, identity, worldview, key life events, themes, thematic preoccupation, motifs.

Jan 06, 2024 - Picture a person in a spacious room. His name is Herbert. He’s a scientist, and he studies and works all day long without any need to go out, make food, do laundry, or anything. He has no distractions; he’s fully focused on his work. No Netflix, no games, no TV at all. Yet, he has access to all the information he needs for work. No people, except for brief visits of housekeeping. A perfectly balanced diet, regular sleep schedule, no viruses, no disturbances.

Jan 05, 2024 - Another example of the situation I can’t quite put my finger on. When you assemble an IKEA cabinet with two kinds of bolts, a long one and a slightly shorter one. And it’s really hard to tell which one you have in hand unless you put them next to each other. So, when you start assembling the cabinet, you put a shorter bolt in place and keep assembling until, at the last step, you are left with the longer bolt, and you realize that you actually need a shorter bolt which you used at the first step. Now, you have to disassemble the cabinet to switch the bolts. It’s a simple mistake that is not obvious at the moment but comes up later when it’s harder to fix it.

Jan 04, 2024 - Here is a bureaucratic game idea. Classic arcade game setting with a top-down view and simple cartoonish graphics.

First level. You stand in line, and the line moves slowly (left to right on the screen). Each person in front of you moves a split second after the person in front of them. Your goal is to catch up as quickly as possible.

Second level. There are human hunters standing a few people after you, and they are shooting at you. You must dodge their bullets, and when you dodge, the bullet kills a person in front of you. When the person in front of you dies, you can take their spot, which speeds up your progressions through the line.

Third level. While standing in line, you also need to fill in a form. This form includes some math quizzes. While filling out the form, you keep dodging the bullets, making sure that bullets don’t hit the person who will be accepting your form who stands in front of you.

Dec 22, 2023 - so, I have this idea, that I can’t articulate properly for years. It’s like with Ikea furniture, that seems bland and minimalistic. It doesn’t express any style or beauty, it’s functional and that’s it. Another example is people who focus their self expression in the way they look. Be it some special hair style, choice of clothes, or tattoos. Contrary to people who look bland, maybe simple. But express their selves in their thoughts. It feels like people who spend their time on their looks trade it for having something worthy in their heads. The parallel with the furniture is that you can make your prefab functional furniture truly yours and personal with DIY decoration, and you can spend good times wondering your mind, as opposed to going to hair stylist, or picking a tattoo that matches your personality. I guess, what I’m trying to say is, your self expression is not for showing off someone else’s craft, it’s for you alone and small circle of people who matter to you.

Sailor is nice, it combines:

  • Letsencrypt auto-provisioning

  • uWSGI Emperor mode as a generic supervisor

My use case is a bit different. I’m looking into adding Tailscale, dropping SSL, and replacing uWSGI with systemd. Also, I might look into replacing nginx with Caddy. I also want a cleaner Python virtualenv management.

What encourages me most is that Sailor is a single Python file of 2k lines.

Jul 13, 2023 - finally, an opinion on downsides of multi repo:

They pay for it by having to invest a lot into release management, version synchronization across multiple teams, much more integration testing, worse understanding of the product by individual developers / teams, and, in general, lower quality of the product. But, off-the-shelf VCSs don’t allow for sharing large repositories easily, and, of course, the problem this merge queue is trying to address would grow more severe with the size.

Although I am a strong advocate of unit testing, I am not a fan of test-driven development. The problem with test-driven development is that it focuses attention on getting specific features working, rather than finding the best design. This is tactical programming pure and simple, with all of its disadvantages. Test-driven development is too incremental: at any point in time, it’s tempting to just hack in the next feature to make the next test pass. There’s no obvious time to do design, so it’s easy to end up with a mess.

May 25, 2023 - Quotes from Ask HN: How do you not take criticism of your work personally?:

A high criticism tolerance is learned by understanding that ones self worth is not attached to output or delivery. (This is hard in our industry) It comes from self-acceptance and compassion. And these values are learned early on. You’ll find that the people that break down at the slightest criticism the most are those that were criticised the most as children as well. Those that had no room for being anything other than perfect. Where value was obtained from performance. To take it even further…why see it as criticism at all? You are not your lines of code.

As much as i like the concept in general in life, in this case its just “you are not your lines of code”. Also people who criticize people make a mistake kind of. Always criticize the code, not the person

(Sometimes anger is healthy, it may also be a signal to us that our boundaries have been violated.) Exactly. And if that boundaries get violated repeatedly in the same situation (especially by the same people), it is fine to release that anger in a controlled way. I’ve come to the conclusion that some folks haven’t left the state where they sometimes need a (vocal) pat on their hand to realize they crossed boundaries they shouldn’t cross. If you can play that game, congrats. Also, do not swallow your anger. Find a non-destructive, non-harmful way to release it. As anger is a physical reaction, the easiest way is to go for a walk, ride your bike or whatever. Whatever floats your boat should be fine.

February 1, 2023 · Davit and I have been working on PaydayProtection.com for about a week in total. So far we got a landing page to collect emails of the people who will early access to the service once we launch it. Building it is fun. I learned 11ty and tailwind, refreshed my CSS. The whole thing is deployed to Netlify and uses Netlify Forms and Functions to save the submitted emails. So far we are well into the free tier. Many parts of the site are generated by, or with help, of ChatGPT and other AI services. Their output is grammatically correct, but dull and soulless, which doesn’t work well with marketing we’re looking for. We gonna have a professional designer work on the page, and give us mock ups, that I should be able to quickly enact through the 11ty+tailwind boilerplate I built.

I started reading “Start small, stay small: a developer’s guide to launching a startup” by Rob Walling. The book is exciting and straight to the point. I already can see how much our effort is misplaced.

We need to work on our goals, and really figure out the marketing effort, and how we can validate the idea.

November 17, 2022 · Lessons learned from climbing

You look at your arms but all the lifting is done by your legs. When you begin, it feels that the arms strength is the bottleneck, but the progress comes from learning to keep arms relaxed and controlling your balance to let the legs do the work.

The obvious way to progress seems to be from building up strength. But losing weight can actually boost your performance in shorter time.

Sometimes when you plateau, the best thing is to take a break. Muscles grow when they rest, and when you come back you suddenly have more endurance and can do harder routes.

One of the super powers of experienced climbers is to be very aware of getting tired, so they can find a good spot to rest on the wall. Nov 23, 2022 - berkerpeksag/astor - Python AST read/write

October 6, 2022 · What’s the name for it?

  • You are going to get a lunch at home;

  • But you need a clean plate;

  • All plates are dirty and stacked in a kitchen sink;

  • You’re out of dish washing liquid, and have to use dishwasher;

  • Dishwasher is already full with dirty cups;

  • You’re out of dishwasher tablets, and need to buy them;

  • Closest store is closed, and you need to drive to the next one;

  • Car has a flat tire, that has to be fixed first, and you need to get to tire shop;

  • Car is out of gas, and you need to get the gas by foot.

This example is long and unrealistic, but I see this happening all the time. Solution for a small problem is blocked by something else, that requires significantly bigger effort. Is it akin to technical debt? Just not exactly technical.

October 3, 2022 · Scratched my self-hosting itch with two new additions to my home server: Nextcloud and Storj.

  • Nextcloud is a bit weird Snap installation with PHP, MariaDB, and Redis. I don’t feel comfortable exposing self-managing PHP applications (read Wordpress-level security), so I’ve put it behind my 2FA cloud proxy. And of course it doesn’t work well with the Nexcloud mobile client. Aside from security, performance on my old home server is not that great. Image previews are generated on-demand, so it takes awhile to see my 300 GB photo gallery. Apple live photos seem to have no support too. All in all, I don’t think it can replace Google Photos, as I hoped.

  • Storj is an implementation of an idea that I had another day. Pretty good one. Set up could have been better streamlined, so it took few hours to hook up a Raspberry Pi 4 with 2 TB external HDD storage. As a side effect I now have an Etherium wallet, that should be used for pay outs. We’ll see. Overall, I like their implementation a lot. From ideation to performance and security aspects. I wish I could make it bare-metal, but I caved too early and went with the recommended Docker installation.

June 8, 2022 · I enjoyed KK’s article on Truth vs Trust. It talks about a utopian news outlets that track down origins of every statement. Not a fact check (that journalists are “doing” now), just a chain of who quoted who. The article’s start point is that we can’t infer truth from a statement itself. But we can track who said what and an origin of every statement.

The problem is though, that for polarizing topics (where truth can’t be established, and we need to rely on trust) all modern news outlets would cover facts that are convenient for them, and omit everything else.

Which means, that trustworthiness of a source is not a scalar, but more of a 3D matrix, that has topics, time, and past dishonesty as axes.

June 7, 2022 · I picked up running a week ago. Today’s personal best is 4 km in 23 minutes.

Fun fact: here’s what happens when you burn a molecule of triglyceride, the predominant fat in a human body:

C55H104O6 + 78O2 --> 55CO2 + 52H2O + energy

Oxidizing 10 kilos of human fat requires inhaling 29 kilos of oxygen to produce 28 kilos of carbon dioxide and 11 kilos of water. It means that you lose roughly the same amount of fat as you sweat.

May 29, 2022 · we went to Rocky Gap State Park’s campground for the Memorial Day. Met few nice folks, hiked a few miles, rented a canoe for a family ride on a lake, went star watching, had a lot of meat with beer. Whether was great except for a short rain on the first day when we had to setup the camp. We built a short zip line from 3 truck straps, which was more fun during building than riding.

May 17, 2022 · Notes on stress management.

Stress management is management of body and mind. Stress is an integral part of human biology. Without stress hormones we would simple die.

  1. Survival kit: sleep, eat, exercise.

  2. Sleep: 7-9 hours a day. Consistent schedule for work days and weekend. Reduce screen time before sleep. Keep phone outside of bedroom.

  3. Food: three colors of vegetables and fruits. 3 meals a day. Standard servings - no overeating.

  4. Exercise: stretch every now and then. Brisk walks for 30 minutes.

  5. Don’t need to start doing everything at once. Build good habits one step at a time. Lifestyle change feels like a hard work.

  6. Avoid quick fixes: pills, drinks, energy bars, phone apps, gadgets, books, movies. Those only increase the number of things to keep track of. And the relief is only temporary.

  7. Write down the goals, not just say it.

  8. Note what causes stress, make a list of situations.

  9. Practice simple meditation several times a day. Focus on breath and do a body scan.

  10. Relax muscles while sitting, one group at a time. Neck, shoulders, arms, back, legs and feet.

  11. Hang out with friends to feel social connection.

Я был когда-то странной игрушкой безымянной.

Protagonist is a male (animal), but he was a toy in the past. But toy’s gender is feminine. Which makes a weird mix of two genders in one sentence separated by the time.
