I commonly use the [`listings` package](/blog/latexcode/) to showcase code in my LaTex documents. I tried doing the same in my Beamer slidedecks and I ran into an issue where the LaTex source code failed to compile. After digging around, I figured out its because every slide or frame that includes code (or any verbatim environment) needs to be marked as `fragile`. A minimal example is presented below:

Dafny treats loops like a black box. It could be annoying the first time you experience this and have no clue why the code is not verifying properly. There are two properties that Dafny needs you to prove: partial correctness and termination. Together these form *total correctness*.

title: Finding Cool People on Mastodon
|

|

|

Mastodon is a cool federated micro-blogging platform that can serve as an alternative to Twitter. One of its primary features is that it shows what they call toots from only people you follow in reverse-chronological order. Nowadays, large tech companies employ recommendation engines to surface content from users (you don't even need to follow) in a non-chronological order driven by the number of interactions users similar to you had with the content. The lack of recommendation engine in Mastodon can be a blessing as low-quality emotional content tends to drive more interactions. However, this can also be a curse as cool new people don't naturally surface in your feed. The following are the techniques I employ to consistently seek out cool new people:

## Conclusion

|

The lack of recommendation engine has driven the Mastodon community to create new and novel ways of discovering new people. It wouldn't surprise me if within the year a whole new set of tools are made available to us. Though I have to say, the default of not showing unfollowed accounts in our feeds is really nice. It means that our Mastodon experience is truly unique to us, and that we can curate them to our liking.

When cuda fails, it fails silently. To combat this, I have gotten into a habit of checking for a failed status for every cuda memory allocation, kernel execution etc. The following is a C++ macro I wrote that checks if a previous cuda call has failed and then prints the current line and file of the macro.

Browsers that support gzip compression send the header `Accept-Encoding: gzip` in its request and if the webserver supports gzip, then it can send the website data back compressed. Though recently I learned that this isn't setup by default in `nginx`! This post will go over the configuration you'll need to add to `/etc/nginx/nginx.conf` in order to support `gzip` compression. From my experience, enabling `gzip` compression reduced network traffic by 1/4.

title: Non-Root Systemd Scripts

I know of two ways to run systemd services not as root. They both have their pros and cons associated with them.

For a multi-user system, one can argue that linger is not a good property to have because users can then have a lot of processes spawned and persistent even if they are not using the system. In that case, having an admin individually add systemd unit files using the first approach makes sense.
|
||||
|
||||
The second approach has the benefit that the admin only has to set the linger property of the user once, and then the user can create as many systemd unit services as they'd like.

Loop invariants are one of the more complicated concepts in Hoare Logic. One might say that we can simply unroll the loop, but there are many loops where we don't know the number of iterations in advanced. Therefore, we often consider what is called the loop invariant. These are statements that are true before, during, and after the loop. A useful loop invariant in combination of the negation of the loop condition can also prove some postcondition.

[Rclone](https://rclone.org/) is a terminal application that manages remote storage. It supports the standard remote filesystem protocols such as S3, (S)FTP, WebDAV as well as easy to use integration with cloud providers such as Amazon S2, Backblaze B2, Google Drive, and others. We can even perform regular backups using [Restic](https://restic.net/) with Rclone underneath. With all these features, it's easy to configure all remote storage within Rclone and then synchronize the configuration file across machines.

Akmods is the Fedora/Red Hat way of managing kernel modules. In Ubuntu, this is `dkms`. If you're like me and force reboot shortly after performing an update, then you might have not given akmods enough time to compile any extra kernel modules (for example: Nvidia). This meant that I had to boot into an older kernel to try to fix the problem....
