Wait, so ARM is little-endian? The perfidy! The effrontery!

Any Bay Area photographers around here? I’m looking for a vantage point to capture a time lapse of the fog coming in over the hills. Thinking more Peninsula-ish than in the City.

I hope everyone who celebrates is planning to have this awesome of a Christmas.

Not all of my #advent posts are for the lulz. This one gets me every year. "It's okay. He's here."

Mary, the mother of Jesus, comforts Eve, who is holding the fruit she ate and hanging her head in shame. Mary looks at her with kindness, placing Eve's hand on her pregnant belly, as if to say, "It's okay. He's here."

It probably didn't happen, but hey, it's Christmas.

Nicholas punches Arius at the council of Nicea in entirely anachronistic clothing in an event that probably didn't happen.

Don't settle for creedally uninformed mall Santas, people!

A little boy sits on a mall Santa's lap and asks "Homoousios or Homoiusios?" The Santa is confused, and the boy says, "You're not the real St. Nicholas."

"CMake isn't a build system; it's a build system generator." Okay, well, now I have two problems. (Happily cmake.org is more straightforward than this. But reading tutorials that try to tell me I am not fighting with a build system? Tim: 🤬.)

Git submodules are great. They're an elegant twist on Git's model of the world that almost makes C's approach to dependency management (to wit, "What, you need more than a filesystem, princess?") into something workable.

Becoming a Data Streaming Engineer isn't easy. Kafka, Flink, schema governance, event-driven microservices...it's not an easy life. So we make courses and tutorials on developer.confluent.io to help, but we also make videos like this. This...is Confluent Developer. www.youtube.com/watch?v=IQ3V...

Americans don't do enough creative Advent calendars. Sure, we'll do 24 chocolates of 24 single-malt whiskeys or whatever, but 24 days of Flink tips? Those always seem to come from Europe. Enter Konstantin Knauf! Today's Flink tip is about EXPLAIN: github.com/knaufk/adven...

Why was I not informed that Jane Eyre was so awesome? I'm just at the part where she's ten years old and I already want to follow her into battle. (Beautiful writing, too—not at all the indulgent Victorian novel I was expecting.)

In Denver for a week, working from our Airbnb and visiting friends and family. Stepping outside this morning to fall colors and crisp Colorado autumn air was…good for me. 😊

Peter Furia is at it again. We are making a video today. It’s a lot.

If I say “certification” (in the context of technology credential-y things), what few words come to mind?

Ah, one day of activity on the platform, and I've already gotten my first "how r u?" reply from a suspicious account with—how shall I put it?—rather consistently themed pictures posted to it. Plus ça change...

No, there can be no nuance, as I will prove in my upcoming RISC-V prototype that locates the register file in S3.
