Damn this place has gotten even more toxic since I last looked. I think I might continue staying away.

I’m experiencing a bug in grep (the default version on MacOS; 2.6.0-FreeBSD). With —color=always some lines get printed multiple times. My google foo does not find anyone else reporting this. Some bug with the Apple extension of MAX_LINE_MATCHES? Where would I report / fix this?

I have this idea in my head where I would like my web browser to categorize my tabs into “projects” so that I can easily close all the tabs with the research I have done for a project once I am done with it. Does anything like that exist? (for MacOS)

”Cryptocurrency” - that is what you call the money in the mattress, right?
Found a book I though I might like to read, and looked up what a bound first edition would cost. Unfortunately I don’t have $50k to spend on books at the moment…

I got a new job primarily because I got a (financially) great offer. I was thinking I’d just keep my head down and focus on code. Then it turns out I’ve landed at such an amazing company, where strategies aligns with my own values in ways I didn’t think possible. Dammit and WOW!

To the list of annoyances with using the Google suite, already containing being logged out right before an important meeting on Google Meet, I add being logged out in the middle of presenting from Google Slides.

I am looking for suggestions on some way to get select notifications to cover my entire screen (on MacOS), for when I need to stop what I am doing in order to go do something else.

Why is the Barber Paradox a paradox at all, and not just an example of gender bias?

Unexpected challenge that had to be solved in the Neo4j trillion edge demo: generating all that load for that benchmark without being rate limited by AWS…

Something something trillion something something relationships something something 1100 shards... on #neo4j. Surprised there were even enough machines in the availability zone :) ... Properly mind boggling scale!

Some more details on that here: neo4j.com/developer-blog/beh… /etc/hosts to the rescue… (it’s always DNS)

This is pretty amazing. I am so excited to work on making it even better! More scalable, easier to use, better performing… as amazing as this is, there is still room for improvement!

In my NODES keynote today, we ran a live demo of a social app with more people nodes than FB (!), backed by a trillion relationship graph sharded across more than 1,000 servers, executing deep, complex graph queries that return in <20 ms. And we open sourced it for the world.

We've raised our Series F -- a $325M round at a $2B valuation that is the largest investment in database history. After a decade of NoSQL experimentation, a handful of new database companies have achieved scale. The great unbundling of the database market has begun. Thread. 👇

reduce() is a very helpful function because it accomplishes two important tasks at once: writing unreadable code and showing off how smart you are

Leonhard Euler would have been approximately 100𝜋 years old today! Working with graphs, I am of course really thankful for the field he founded, because it turns out that graphs are everywhere! (as evident by the attached BNF and this video: youtu.be/j6mKieK5puE)

By the way: If graphs and (programming|query|formal) languages are your thing, then come work with me at @neo4j, we are hiring language designers for my standardisation and research team! Malmö: jobs.lever.co/neo4j/008fa003… London: jobs.lever.co/neo4j/4d60910c… Anywhere: message me!
Sounds like a typical week... me: parsing is a solved problem, just use a parser generator. also me: hand writes parsers almost weekly, and experiments with different ways of doing parser generators on my own time...

me: parsing is the most boring part of compilers, start with an AST me: *implements a parser 3 times with different tools*

Has anyone compiled statistics over most referenced year in fiction? I’d like to find a histogram over year in which works of fiction place significant events. For example 1984 is significant for George Orwell, 2001 for Arthur C. Clarke, Back to The Future is set in 1985 & 1955.
🤯 - the realization that this is completely true!
