I recently wrote a series of articles about Data Engineering Patterns. The four articles focus on the differences between software engineering and data engineering and the need to apply software engineering principles to data engineering. But I also cover why that’s not as simple as it sounds. the...

Photograph,as defined by my trusty Funk & Wagnalls, is a noun: “A picture taken by photography.” Ok, sometimes the simplest definitions just work. But I start there because we’re about to undertake a very photograph-heavy playlist with 15 songs simply titled “Photograph.” The first two songs...

I'm done with hiding behind this wall. All alone in a place that should've been my home for a few years but never was I suddenly started to realize alot of things. It was like I stepped out of my own body and started talking to myself, my little demons running amok inside my head. I went mad and...

A short reflection in which I recount a near-drowning experience from my childhood, during which a friend who could not swim and I were saved when my foot struck a solid rock after I cried out to Jesus.

Over the years I have grown tired of the tightness in how we talk about our jobs, achievements and careers in general at LinkedIn. I poked a bit of fun to it by writing a different type of profile section. Being a Swede I find it really embarrassing toothing my own horn, so I made up a story...

I've long been a big fan of over-the-ear, old-school big headphones for comfort and sound quality reasons. It's also because I generally don't like to stick things inside my ears. Apple's ear buds are mostly ok but I dislike in-ear models that you push deeply into your canals to seal out noise,...

A simple act of kindness always sparks another, even in a frozen, faraway place. When Smeerensburg’s new postman, Jesper, befriends toymaker Klaus, their gifts melt an age-old feud and deliver a sleigh full of holiday traditions. I have no idea how this movie flew under the radar for me, but...

Some time in the 1990s I bought a pack of GW metal Warhammer Skaven. I didn't have any interest in Warhammer, but I did want something I could use as wererats for my AD&D game.The skaven are a bit more heavily equipped than your standard AD&D wererat, but they looked ratty enough for my...

Hiya! It’s usually the practice here at 3rd World Geeks to review a television show or anime once it’s been completed. This way, we can avoid the issue of a show just putting all their efforts in the first episode and crap all over the rest of the season, leading to really good initial thoughts...

Starting and iterating on a Kaggle competition in Google Antigravity I spent a couple of days on a Kaggle Playground Series competition (S6E7, predicting a three-class health_condition from tabular health data), mostly as an excuse to try Google Antigravity 2.0 with Gemini 3.1 Pro, as part of...

The cursor fills in a whole function faster than you could have typed it, and for one second you feel faster. Anyone who codes with AI knows that second. It is real, it is satisfying, and building Rapidfy and SolveTO I have felt it a hundred times a day. What I learned the hard way is that the...

Since the coding part is now done, I decided to solder the Arduino and IR sensor on a bit of perfboard, and then put it in a case. I don't have a case though; but what I do have is a 3D printer, so I'm going to try my hands at designing one. This was interesting because I've never really designed...

From 2008 to 2011, I quit my tech job, became a photographer, and lived in a car I named Kermit. It was the beginning of my journey into minimalism — exploring what it meant to live life outside the box, with all the freedom, uncertainty, beauty, and challenges that came with...

Gail Daughtry and the Celebrity Sex Pass brings a slapdash quality to a comedy that opts for a glut of gags that bob on a sea of silliness. Director David Wain (Wet Hot American Summer) delivers a preposterous story, unremitting goofiness, and a disregard for credibility, driving his movie to zany...

Every software license you have ever used - from a proprietary EULA to the GNU GPL - rests on a single assumption: that code is copyrightable, and that copying its expression is something different from reimplementing its ideas. For half a century, that premise and distinction held. It gave us the...

Last Monday morning I had six terminal tabs open. One was a coding agent halfway through an API endpoint in one of our line-of-business systems. Another was watching a build in a second repo. Two more were parked on paused agents I was going to come back to. The last two I actually needed to...

In our 99th episode, Rands is back on the Pro Leisure Circuit — infinite time, a suspicious amount of Arc Raiders, and no wind in the sails — and we wrestle with what actually motivates a person when the engine of work goes quiet. The usual suspects: Arc Raiders, absorbing ten-hour days like it’s...

Light honey, cream and crusty French bread swirl between the cheeks. Plus a slightly minty hop. This is only $2.85 CND a can at the LCBO and grocery stores around our fair province.

They were honest about their experience with him, from the beginning to the end, and even without going into too much detail, it’s clear...

There is a special kind of freedom that comes when you learn to travel well with very little money. It teaches you that the richest experiences often arrive not in spite of a small budget, but because of it. Slowing down, getting creative, and staying open can turn modest journeys into deeply satisfying adventures filled with honest connections and quiet joys.

Whenever I hear someone argue that it's impossible to detect AI-generated writing because "AI is just copying human writing" -- a disproven myth, by the way -- or "humans write like this all the time", I often think of the Fermi paradox. The Fermi paradox, named for physicist Enrico Fermi, is an...
