I'm pleased to announce that the very first release of guile-bstructs, version 0.1.0, has been released! This is a library I've been working on for quite some time and after more than one rewrite and many smaller refactors I think it's finally ready to release publicly. Let's...

PHP functions to get and remove the file extension from a string

from A Beautiful Site [alt+shift+b] in programming

over a year ago
I use these regular expressions all the time, but it's much more convenient to have them both in convenient PHP functions. // Returns only the file extension (without the dot) function file_ext($filename) { return preg_match('/\./', $filename) ? preg_replace('/^.*\./', '',...

Finding the biggest items in my Photos Library

from alexwlchan [alt+shift+b] in programming

a year ago
I’m approaching the limit of my current iCloud storage tier, and most of that is my Photos Library. I don’t really want to pay for the next iCloud storage tier – I’d be tripling my bill, but I’d barely use the extra space. (My library grows pretty slowly – I’ve only added ~6GB of...

Tip for per-test verbose logging in Go

from Krzysztof Kowalczyk blog [alt+shift+b] in programming

over a year ago
One way to narrow down a problem when debugging a test is to add logging with e.g. fmt.Printf(). The problem with this approach is lack of selectivity: imagine you have 100 tests and only 1 test fails. For debugging the issue you only need to see logs when executing that 1 test...

Remote Directory Tree Comparison, Optionally Asynchronous and Airgapped

from The Changelog [alt+shift+b] in programming

over a year ago
Note: this is another article in my series on asynchronous communication in Linux with UUCP and NNCP. In the previous installment on store-and-forward backups, I mentioned how easy it is to do with ZFS, and some of the tools that can be used to do it without ZFS. A lot of those...

When Google killed Google Reader, the bloggosphere took a severe hit and the content quality went down because there weren't enough readers to justify the effort it takes to maintain a high quality blog.

What's left is a decaying wasteland of blogs, most abandoned, a lot are now SEO spam, and 99% are not worth reading. BoredReading is a way to read the remaining great blogs that survived the ice age.

To add your favorite blog, please suggest it here! I get emails every day which helps me maintain a high quality selection of blogs!
