Welcome to my slice of the internet.
Ok this one is an experiment. I will try to replace my tweeting with short posts. I don’t tweet much anyway, but given by how much I have been posting here recently we can gather I blog even less. This is not really a revolutionary idea. Seth Godin did precisely this for the past 20 years. Maybe he was onto something. So instead of taking my musings to mastodons or some other platform, I will just try to give a go at doing it here and we will see where it takes me....
Starting a new project can be quite repetitive task. Fortunately, automating repetitive task is what programming is good at, right? So you’d expect to find plenty of options spitting boilerplate code around, removing the tedious setup, giving us more time for the fun stuff. Funny enough they are not that many options around (I mean there is some choice but if you want to know how many is too many option, try to count how many implementation of the ls command, if you can… and then get back to me…)...

Wait, what’s a design system A Design System is like a reusable library of components, visuals and principles. Through composition, the system can scale to offer a path for to create a coherent UX for designers and developers of digital products and services.

Learning Maths Where can you learn math Math Foundations from Scratch is part of a large course on AI, but nice and concise Robotics 501: Mathematics for Robotics for a more unexplored area of maths applied to robotics The Book of Proof - I love this one. If you ever want to understand maths at its roots, I would advise you to read this one. It’s a back to fundamentals where you demonstrate what is a multiplication using set theory and other fun stuff....

In France, recent news are interesting to say the least. The CNIL is the french body on protection of privacy, which is regulating most of the online activities concerning data management. They have recently issue a ruling that practically forbid the use the of Google Analytics. Google Analytics and Data Transfers to the US FR- GDPR - CNIL to forbid a website to use google analytics From their press release:...
There are multiple way to work with Google Calendar. I choose to not work with the private key thing for now. Instead I will try to use the option working with the .ics format. This should give a relatively universal solution for all kind of calendars. I don’t want a locked-in solution that would work only for Google. (Not that this would very surprising if in the end we find out we have to do something custom because it’s google)...
So, i had this planned for a while to add some more math content to this blog. Mostly for the content I do in french, where I do a lot of school related content for the kids but also for here, in english, where I will likely need it later when adding content about recommender system and other ML topics. Anyway, figured out that Latex is the way to go usually when you want to do some maths in a paper, and well, turns out there is a library for this name Katex and it’s super simple to integrate in Hugo....
A known thing - I am just posting this here as a reference Beautiful is better than ugly. Explicit is better than implicit. Simple is better than complex. Complex is better than complicated. Flat is better than nested. Sparse is better than dense. Readability counts. Special cases aren’t special enough to break the rules. Although practicality beats purity. Errors should never pass silently. Unless explicitly silenced. In the face of ambiguity, refuse the temptation to guess....
Keeping Secrets Secret in Python Based on an article by originally published by Jason Goldberger but unfortunately the original is not online anymore so I have rewritten a short version, since this is something I have been looking for a while. Fernet has one classmethod called generate_key() and two instance methods encrypt(plaintext_binary) and decrypt(cipher_binary). Step 1 : Generate a key Generate a key and save it to the OS’s environment variables:...

Kubernetes has multiple moving parts. Here is an short article aiming at mapping all this to create some clarity. Some Basic Vocabulary Nothing fancy but let’s get this out of the way. Nodes A node can be a physical machine or a virtual machine. Cluster A cluster is a group of nodes Container runtime Docker (or runC) Pod A pod is a group of containers - that together form a logical application....
