Imagine thinking this is a clever thing to post

Hey Ben! This is so neat! I worked with Dr. Hansen on the audio digitization over on http://exploreapollo.org . Thanks for the link in the footer! I’ve been out of the loop on that…

You do understand that nearly all the parts on an M16 are interchangeable with an AR15, right? The AR15 is an M16 without select fire capability.

I brought this up with my Japanese friend. He told me there are so many homophones in the language people are desensitised to stuff like this. For example: シ (shi) can mean both 四 …

+1 for piptools. Piptools makes a lot of sense in a docker based workflow (virtualenv not needed).

The fact that it couples dependency management to virtualenv management is really unfortunate for people that use docker. Can’t wait for pipfiles and such to be native to pip.

What do you think of mypy? http://mypy-lang.org/

It’s toxic and lazy too. You should first go look and see if the actual code is high quality/does what you want. If your idea of shopping for dependencies is looking at the amount …

I was to “go to person” for my university’s natural language processing research group. I built a database and accompanying REST API for bulk loading audio and transcription data f…

I had the pleasure of hanging out with the Sentry folks in SF for a couple days last week. Honestly a top-notch group. It was eye-opening to see what is possible when you have an o…

WordPress is a cms first and foremost. edit: lol today I learned cms != blog

That definitely stood out to me.

Pokémon on 3DS is wonderful for learning Japanese. It's a game for kids so it's made up of a lot of kana with some low level kanji.

On my mac I used tmux and vim for years. However, only after building a little arch linux box did I realize I actually wanted a tiling window manager and an ide all along.

Any change you make to the schema will be a breaking change.

That is not an apt analogy. Unit tests improve code quality: code that is easily testable has high cohesion and low coupling. Tests can also serve as valuable documentation.
