The rewrite of the Sisyphus server continues, I've got all of the GET endpoints and about 60% of all the endpoints finished overall. Some initial testing on the `/workers` and `/queue` endpoints show some worrying results from the old version and some great results from the new version. The `/workers` endpoint started throwing errors at about 800 RPS on the Python/Flask version (the old one), the rewrite is showing around 4800 RPS (Golang/Gin). The `/queue` endpoint doesn't show a…

99% of stakeholder "ideas" are just copying a feature they saw on a competitor's product. And the features they notice most are the ones that yell at their users the loudest.
Now all software (not just consumer apps, but also metrics dashboards) yells at you, and trains you to attend to its yelling. Strategy becomes dominated by the overriding need to make the good number go up.

The circular logic of our metrics
We design what is familiar. The design patterns we adopt are the ones yelling at us the loudest.

Because @…’s Flipboard site won’t scroll for me (?!?), here’s the paragraph with the punch:
❝It’s worth noting that over the decades, Pixar has explored topics such as, but [not*] limited to: becoming a widower, suddenly becoming a single or adoptive parent, environmental collapse, existential dread, motherhood, and job burnout. The first Incredibles has a subplot where Elastigirl thinks Mr. Incredible is having an affair, Toy Story 3 has the toys accept death by furnace, and Elemental is about interracial relationships. The last two movies Docter directed were Soul, which is about a Black man finding joy in his life again, and Inside Out—maybe the most therapy-ass movie (and series) in the studio’s entire 40-year tenure—is about messy preteen emotions that lead to its main character running away from home.❞
* The word “not” is missing in the original, surely an editorial mistake?

Happy #FreeCADFriday! This week I've been working on re-modelling the case for the Morserino M32 Pocket. At least four different people had worked on the case. It was initially made in FreeCAD, but then was modified with other software, and the current case that QRP Labs is shipping was edited in s…

Screen shot of a basic case with no integrated paddles at all. The case is rendered transparent in order to show the internal display frame and the base, as well as some of the internal structure. There is a knob placed where the actual physical knob sits on the assembled device. The internal components are not modeled.
Screen shot that is like the other image, except that the case is the version with the default integrated paddles as shipped by QRP Labs.

The 100baseT1 decode benchmark is dropping below real time when I have a lot of traffic on the link. Do not want.
Sooo now to figure out how to either double the speed of the decode or steal some more time from something else along the critical path like the edge detector or CDR filters that I've spent a ton of time optimizing.
It looks like the workload scheduler might be a weak point here: the greedy algorithm makes the eye pattern run as soon as data is available, which ma…

I just shared this note with my wonderful CBS News colleagues: To my incredible colleagues at CBS: As Tom mentioned on our 9am call, I want to personally let you know that my work will soon no longer appear on CBS News. This is my decision, and I appreciate the bosses at CBS for understanding it. I will always value the opportunity I had to work alongside the talented and committed professionals here. I'm proud to have had the words "CBS correspondent" next to my name - always will be. …

The new server is online and so far the testing looks good. All the endpoints seem to be working and all of the workers and frontend are showing the correct information. I still need to do a complete test run to include encoding just to verify everything, but I'll do that after work today.
