  • the “what” is interesting on interfaces or when you generate documentation with some tool like sphinx or javadoc.

    the “why” is interesting when you are somewhere inside a class or function and do something in a “strange” way, to work around a quirk in the codebase or something like that, or when you employ optimizations that make the code harder to read or atleast less obvious why somethings are done.







  • Definitely not normal.

    I’ve got mine for 2 years now and could probably still count crashes like that on one hand. so if you are sure it’s not a faulty sd card or something like that causing this i’d send it back.

    e: sometime ago an Update introduced Fan Curve settings, its a checkbox in the system settings titled “enable updated fan control”, some people reported higher temps with that enabled, so your crash might be the system powering down to avoid overheating, thats atleast worth a try.



  • parquet is cloesely tied to the apache foundation, because it was designed as a storage format for hadoop.

    But many data processing libraries offer interfaces to handle parquet files so you can use it outside of the hadoop eco system.

    It’s really good for archiving data, because the format can store a lot of data with relatively low disk space, while still providing ok read performance because often times you won’t need to read the whole file due to how they are structured, where csv files would be a lot of plaintext taking up more diskspace.



  • Mega Man X, basically finished am just to stupid for Sigma.

    Pokemon Unbound, a Romhack for Pokémon Fire Red, probably my favourite Pokémon game. Enemy Trainers are way better than they were in the official games so some fights actually require thinking.

    Elden Ring, started a new play through for the dlc, have not entered the new area yet, but my last play through is more than a year past and i’ve forgotten way more stuff than i thought so even the old areas feel pretty fresh again. and while i still love the game, but damn it fromsoftware quests should be more than bumping into an npc in random locations where they have some cryptic thing to say and then bumping into them again later for more cryptic stuff.



  • fixed lens cameras are a relatively niche thing nowerdays, despite the hype around thr fuji x100vi and the rico gr3.

    i’d look for a micro-four-thirds camera like the om system om5/olympus e5. The micro-four-thirds sensors are very good, despite being smaller, the system offers a ton of good glass that tends to be lighter and smaller than aps-c or fullframe equivalents, so very backpackable.
