The problem with most machine-based random number generators is that they’re not TRULY random, so if you need genuine randomness it is sometimes necessary to link your code to an external random process like a physical noise source or the current rate of US tariffs on a given country.

Sometimes when talking about platform engineering I feel like I'm having to advocate for things that used to be common practice: write software yourself, hire smart engineers, expertise and experience in building systems matters

I 1961 begik IBM 7094 den første computergenerede sang. Glimrende materiale til et godt mareridt.

Sangen er i Arthur C. Clarkes "2001: A Space Odyssey". Clarke fik inspiration til HAL fra 7094, som du kan se billede af i næste post.

Så har jeg simpelthen prøvet at lave et feed der samler alle danske posts et sted - Stadig "Work-in-Progress".

Ideen er lidt at så længe at det danske community herinde er så lille, vil det måske gøre det lettere at finde hinanden, og få en fornuftig samtale op at køre.

Bluesky DK kommer til at hensygne og dø i Q1 2025 hvis ikke folk snart kommer igang med at poste, reposte og like mere ⚡️

Ok. Finally, took the (long overdue) step of shutting down my silent profile on the other platform.

After casual observation for a while - this seems like a nicer, saner place. Here's hoping. 🙏
