Setting up Year in Command Line — Danish Prakash I’ve tracked my command line history in a MariaDB instance for the past 5 years. The original idea was to simple keep track of everything I do on the command line so that I can refer to them later on. The utility of the history command was immediately app...
The Voice Principle As I’ve gotten more interested in A.I., and use it more and more, I’ve discovered a very clear boundary or value in my use of it for writing.
The Value of Things – journal.stuffwithstuff.com One of the reasons I write is to help me organize my own mind. I have a compulsive need to figure things out and I’ll lay awake at night shuffling sentences around in my head until it hangs together. Then I just have to try to get it all down in Markdown ...

That agent achieved a 14.75% rate of reaching 65k with many built-in heuristics to encourage the snake-pattern (keeping the highest tile in the corne...
Why You Need To Clear Your Coding Agent's Context Window Why fresh context beats accumulated context for coding agents. Research on attention degradation and practical strategies for better AI-assisted development.
The Relative Trap Why 'analysis paralysis' is often a refusal to accept the finite nature of evidence. A look at why your mental health—and your work—depends on loving reality more than your narrative.

Long branches in compilers, assemblers, and linkers Branch instructions on most architectures use PC-relative addressing with a limited range. When the target is too far away, the branch becomes "out of range" and requires special handling. Consider a
Notes about Basic Polyphase Decimation Filters I’ve been reading up on polyphase filters and multi-rate digital signal processing. It’s a broad topic, but as a beginner I need to start with the basics. And to better internalize those, I like to expand the generic math into concretely worked-out, sma...
Recapping My 5 Year Old Studio Monitors A few weeks ago, I started hearing a slight crackle at the loudest parts of whenever sound was playing through my PreSonus Eris E3.5 speakers. It was very faint, but quite annoying, especially when editing my YouTube videos. For a few days I thought it co...
