Google tracking everything we read is bad, particularly since Google abandoned the “don’t be evil” plan and are presumably open to being somewhat evil. The article recommendations on Chrome on Android are useful and I’d like to be able to get the same quality of recommendations without Google knowing about everythin...

Getting precise timings out of RS-232 output

For uninteresting reasons I need very regular 58Hz pulses coming out of an RS-232 Tx line: the time between each pulse should be as close to 1/58s as possible. I produce each pulse by writing an \xFF byte to the device. The start bit is the only active-voltage bit being sent, and that produces my pulse. I wrote this...

Extrinsic termination proofs for well-founded recursion in Lean – Blog – Joachim Breitner's Homepage

A few months ago I explained that one reason why this blog has become more quiet is that all my work on Lean is covered elsewhere. This post is an exception, because it is an observation that is (arguably) interesting, but does not lead anywhere, so where else to put it than my own blog… Background When defining a f...

The other day, I noted that the emacs integration with debputy stopped working. After debugging for a while, I realized that emacs no longer sent the didOpen notification that is expected of it, which confused debputy. At this point, I was already several hours into the debugging and I noted there was some discussio...

A new release 0.1.13 of the RcppSimdJson package is now on CRAN. RcppSimdJson wraps the fantastic and genuinely impressive simdjson library by Daniel Lemire and collaborators. Via very clever algorithmic engineering to obtain largely branch-free code, coupled with modern C++ and newer compiler instructions, it resul...

In case you haven't noticed, I'm trying to post and one of the things that entails is to just dump over the fence a bunch of draft notes. In this specific case, I had a set of rough notes about NixOS and particularly Nix, the package manager. In this case, you can see the very birth of an article, what it looks like...

I recently used the PuLP modeler to solve a work scheduling problem to assign workers to shifts. Here are notes about doing that. This is a common use case, but isn't explicitly covered in the case studies in the PuLP documentation. The tool is supposed to allocate workers to the shifts to try to cover all the shift...
