    Poked my head around in here today. No finer statistics department in all the land

    I'm often amazed at how efficient modern manufacturing is. But it's not the big stuff like $500 big-screen TVs that brings it home for me, it's the fact that selling 35 cent outlet covers, after shipping and markup, is still profitable

    You likely aren't a parent if you've never worn a Buzz Lightyear Band-Aid in public before

    I'm sure I sound like a broken record, but I am perpetually shocked by how expensive Apple's products are. Apple Play is 200%-300% more expensive than every other competitor? I guess with that level of markup you needn't sell as many devices to make a profit.

    For all of the myriad services that AWS offers, I find it surprisingly hard to do simple batch processing tasks like fire up a compute instance, do some work, and then shut it down. Or set up a compute cluster. Is it just fundamentally designed for long-running processes?

    I also considered using Nextflow, but having to learn Groovy, a scripting-language extension of Java, and the dependency on the JVM was a non-starter for me

    I've been experimenting with Snakemake, a reimagining of make that can be used to manage workflow dependencies when submitting jobs to a computing cluster scheduler. My first impression: it's really awesome!

    Had the great privilege of attending a talk by Fred Brooks today in which he described the creation of some of the earliest computers through a series of personal recollections. He is a wonderful storyteller, and told more than a few zingers throughout the presentation!

    Pulled my old computer out of storage. I miss this sticker!

    The most cost-effective way to defeat the Terminators is to introduce a NaN in a SkyNet training data example

    It turns out that in the lambda calculus that since you can't refer to a function by name, the Y combinator is how recursion is defined. So yes, it is vitally important.

    Finished reading Kleppmann's Designing Data-Intensive Applications this weekend, what a wonderful text. For the first time I feel as though I have some general sense of what the available storage systems are, as opposed to just knowing a few specific technologies.

    Every once in a while I'll be having difficulty with a particular utility only to realize that I'm using the BSD rather than the GNU version. The biggest offenders for me are find and locate, but this time it was tar

    One thing that living in the south has made me an expert in is killing nasty looking bugs in my home. When I go outside that's their world, I'm just a guest

    Kinda humorous that in all of AWS's commercials they never fail to mention that they host Netflix's platform.
