manpreet @mnprt.me · 07/10/2025

this one is soo good.

manpreet @mnprt.me · 30/06/2025

yup. still got it. wrote a beautiful statemachine dsl in kotlin.

i had no response lol

You can say my first irc adventure is not going so well. Started with a password leak. @ctierengineer.com

I wrote a post on writing a search engine. mnprt.me/posts/search...

Type of effort I put into assignments so they are super easy to mark for the TAs. No 15000 words paragraph describing why my solution is correct. Just a diagram.

manpreet @mnprt.me · 09/02/2025

Just 1 more try catch, just 1 more try catch. Man I miss my runCatching { }. I am sure there is better way to do this in C++ but I do not have the time to learn so I will just rant.

manpreet @mnprt.me · 09/02/2025

abstractions yum. need to add error handling though atm, it just throws an error and exits hehe.

manpreet @mnprt.me · 08/02/2025

My protocol is overkill for school assignment but I really like it. I am transferring a struct rather than raw string. It's so much nicer to work with rather than parsing raw strings.

manpreet @mnprt.me · 08/02/2025

This school assignment is really time consuming, mainly because everytime I run this program I have to win a tic tac toe game against my server. I keep on losing to a random move generator server.

manpreet @mnprt.me · 05/02/2025

just look at her. i haven't even extracted the common functionality away yet or bothered with a refactor to clean things up. so so readable you do not even need to know ktor ot kotlin to read it. i love kotlin.

manpreet @mnprt.me · 03/02/2025

added the option to attach images < 5MB on the imageboard.

manpreet @mnprt.me · 26/01/2025

ooo we did get some traffic last night. response time looking really good lol. so proud.

Surely nothing could go wrong

manpreet @mnprt.me · 20/01/2025

i love gatling for load testing.

Found two queries that are likely culprit. Document search has no good reason to be this slow. I can optimize this by just ditching whatever the ORM is doing. Now for the second query hmm not sure I will try with a simple additional index on just the document id and see where it goes.

I should start with pagination. 722 items are just entirely too many. This is excluding the comments.

Same search but now a different query takes most of the time. This is far from ideal. IDK if I wanna spend more time optimizing it.

110

manpreet @mnprt.me · 18/01/2025

I should add more logs for performance, maybe even metrics. This is embarassingly slow lol. Most queries are ~100ms but this is 7 times slower.

Wait what this is actually good lol nice. Found a good article.

Made a search engine for hackernews. It is deployed here: hnsearch.mnprt.me No libraries for search, just classic inverted index and BM25 for ranking. Have only indexed 8000 documents so far and with reasonable points of > 5. github.com/manpreeeeeet...

manpreet @mnprt.me · 16/01/2025

Never listening to ppl on the internet again. Look at what you made me do. Recreated try catch from scratch while keeping almost identical syntax. play.kotlinlang.org#eyJ2ZXJzaW9u...

manpreet @mnprt.me · 13/01/2025

Sneak Peak at what I am cooking. No libraries for search indices, just the good ole inverted index stored on db and simple ranking algo. Now need to do the boring part of writing tests and ensuring pieces are working together nicely.

manpreet @mnprt.me · 12/01/2025

Do you see this beauty, search ranking has been achieved internally.

~100 hours of Kotlin as a side quest nice. Sadly no work stats.

manpreet @mnprt.me · 05/01/2025

Gonna improve those UI skills hehe. Made this. mnprt.me/spam/columns

JVM implementation is complete. It lacks a lot of features, but I am happy with how far I got. Might pick it up again in future to add the missing features. github.com/manpreeeeeet...

manpreet @mnprt.me · 28/12/2024

My Go JVM now can run this code. Which is Object Intilization + Method calling. Time to clean up the code tomorrow.

ConstantPool Parsing has been achieved internally. So close to parsing the Class and then I will look into executing OPCodes. I am a dummy but I will get it working.

manpreet @mnprt.me · 27/12/2024

I have frieren in my IDE now. @nanami.codes see this.

manpreet @mnprt.me · 26/12/2024

why is my cafe babe inverted? and other great things you can ask your llm. the future is here.

manpreet @mnprt.me · 14/12/2024

ooo light mode on my site now.

manpreet @mnprt.me · 09/12/2024

I love finding such stuff in the wild.

why is everything here trying to grab my attention. only the middle section matters. everything else should be secondary toggleable.

what these cute little packages. what is a Nuget. why does the official documentation has so many words but most of it is not important.

* Created scalable, reliable APIs using dot net framework. * Followed best practices to write maintainable code.

I am gonna become god's strongest C# developer.

my skills r finally about to pay off.
