When Git first came onto the scene in the mid 2000's, I was initially skeptical because of its horrible user interface. But once I learned it, I appreciated its speed and features - especially the ease at which you could create feature branches, merge, and even create commits offline (which was a big deal in the era…
Sometimes you have to write code to do some ad-hoc things in order to make programs run in a variety of environments, but as time goes by, it could result in a tragicomical situation where ad-hoc features are built on other ad-hoc features. It is easy to identify that kind of problem, but in many cases, nobody can fix…

Last week, I wrote a small nifty tool called bisect-binary , which semi-automates answering the question “To what extent can I fill this file up with zeroes and still have it working”. I wrote it it in Haskell, and part of the Haskell code, in the Intervals.hs module, is a data structure for “subsets of a file”…
Edit 2017/12/10: So I screwed up, I thought I was safe confirming it in two different ways but I was using an external monitor and all of the below is accurate only for a specific multi-monitor case. Skip to the bottom to read about my new results.

This is a detailed step-by-step introduction to R programming. Starting with the two major reasons to learn R for Data Science, it will guide you through the installation process, and prepare you for the basics of R: arithmetics, variables assignment, data types, functions, and documentations.
This is the second post in a series. Read part 1 here.
Many years ago, I've been waiting for a language like Go. Back then, I was primarily working with C (for microcontrollers), and C++/Java/Python/etc (for bigger machines). These are great tools, but still I was longing for compiled, statically typed, memory-safe (and garbage collected) language, which compiles for the…
