Imaging Misconceptions: Resolution
https://blog.nerdcruft.net/posts/2013/08/22/imaging-misconceptions-resolution.html
Thu 22 August 2013. Every few weeks I come across questions on my regular photography forums which indicate a deep misunderstanding of what is actually occuring under the hood of some popular piece of imaging software. The most common misconception I see is that a photographic image has an inate physical size, or DPI. One cannot change the dimensions of a dimensionless quantity like a pixel. Inspired by the default theme.

Ideal Daemon Configuration Files
https://blog.nerdcruft.net/posts/2013/07/27/daemon-configs.html
Ideal Daemon Configuration Files. Sat 27 July 2013. If you're thinking of writing a daemon that has anything in the way of configuration files I implore you to consider a small amount of implementation effort for an 'include' directive. This simple addition may not seem like a great deal for yourself, but it will undoubtedly go a long way to easing some poor sysop's life. An annoying example from the postfix documentation:. Is there some kind of 'include' directive for main.cf?

Improving Linux Font Rendering. Thu 01 August 2013. After spending the better part of a day reinstalling my operating system (protip: don't uninstall your system compiler if you're running a source based distro), I finally got my system back to the point where I had a browser and email. Fortunately a helpful posts on the Arch wiki. Pointed out hinting was likely at fault. Forcing full hinting seemed to work a treat. Below is the configuration I inserted next in line after lcdfilter.

Bitcoin Exchange API Observations
https://blog.nerdcruft.net/posts/2014/03/29/bitcoin-api-observations.html
Bitcoin Exchange API Observations. Sat 29 March 2014. A new project has prompted me to investigate the trading APIs belonging to a number of Bitcoin exchanges. It's been a fun few weeks and I've learned a lot about an area I've never really watched in the past. Credit has to be given to Vault of Satoshi. For having particularly well behaved APIs (though justcoin does have to be reverse engineered from their trading platform's source. If you have any value which represents a time you. For anything finicky...

Debugging with Library Interposition. Mon 16 May 2016. At some point when debugging one will encounter a scenario where it is desirable to modify or observe an application’s interaction with an external library (or the system). Various techniques are available, but few are quite as straightforward as ‘library interposition’: the practice of overriding references to symbols from one library with another library at executable load-time. Additionally, given we started with an ordered list of libraries, it i...
