humans have invented mathematics surprisingly early (while the status of the number zero was still being debated in ancient greece), and programming surprisingly late (although algorithms were around for a long time, they didn’t catch on until later, even though they seem like an at least equally intuitive concept?)

Erlang Solutions: Understanding Processes for Elixir Developers
This post is for all developers who want to try Elixir or are trying their first steps in Elixir. This content is aimed at those who already have previous experience with the language.

This will help to explain one of the most important concepts in the BEAM: processes. Although Elixir is a general-purpose programming language, you don’t need to understand how the virtual machine works, but if you want to take advantage … ⌘ Read more

Hello! 👋 I haven’t lost the desire to blog, nor have I decided on Digital Detox, it’s just that I’m currently busy moving. Instead of continuing to program my own stuff after work and pouring my thoughts into blog articles, I had to pack boxes. Today was my last workday in the home office in the old apartment, Monday is the first workday in the home office in my new apartment. Then my blogging frequency will probably remain rather low, because I still have to clear out the old apartment, but I may have a little more … ⌘ Read more

Erlang Solutions: Saving lives with Elixir
When you think about programming languages, you might not think about them literally changing people’s lives, but they do more often than you would expect. Elixir has empowered Linda Achieng and Sigu Mawa to build emergency software that is already saving lives in Kenya. What started with the death of a close friend, has expanded into an inspirational project, with Elixir being used to empower local com … ⌘ Read more

** What is an addressing mode? **
In a recent post I referenced addressing modes. But what the heck are they!?

Setting the stage

The instruction register holds the program instruction that is currently being run.

A fixed number of bits within the instruction register represent the operation, e.g. “op. code” — examples of these instructions include things like add, subtract, load, and store. We can imagine the instruction register like this:

** A quick and dirty intro to the .pbm file format **
I’ve been fiddling with writing programs that draw pictures. I started with PostScript for this, but have since moved to writing programs that output in the .pbm format.

My goal here is to write noise to a .pbm file.

A .pbm file is the lowest common denominator among image file formats.

An example of the format,

I feel like it took me a bit longer to fully understand how to work in Smalltalk than it did most languages. The IDE is different than anything I’ve used before, and probably anything you’ve seen as well. You’re not going to be opening myscript.st in your favorite text editor, and then run it from the command line as you would a Python program. It takes a little mental adjustment to start with.

That’s not the warning, howe … ⌘ Read more

** Introducing Guava **
I’ve been fascinated by Forth and concatenative programming for a while now. I can’t remember how I initially stumbled in to it, but once I got going I’ve been unable to stop. I’m a wee bit in love with it.

Wanting to play a bit with implementing my own spin on things and having opinions about tooling, I picked up a little scripting language called [Ripen](https://felix.plesoia … ⌘ Read more

Day 16 of Advent of Code is so confusing that I will not finish today’s puzzle. I wonder if yesterday was my last day with Advent of Code, or will the puzzles become more understandable and easier again in the next few days? Maybe I’m just more the practical type. I like programming, but such complex algorithms are not really my thing. And in the end, Advent of Code is supposed to be fun… ⌘ Read more

WSL 2 GPU Support for Docker Desktop on NVIDIA GPUs
It’s been a year since Ben wrote about Nvidia support on Docker Desktop. At that time, it was necessary to take part in the Windows Insider program, use Beta CUDA drivers, and use a Docker Desktop tech preview build. Today, everything has  changed: On the OS side, Windows 11 users can now enable their GPU […]

I’ve never really done test-driven development (TDD). But Advent of Code offers the perfect opportunity for that, because there is already an example input and an example result. So it is possible to create a test first and program until the test passes. ⌘ Read more

It’s time again to ask my followers: I have my homepage jlelse.dev, but I’m thinking about using jlelse.com for a more professional and appealing website about me. I can program, but my design skills are somewhat limited. What should I use to design and create the site? I used Carrd a couple of years ago. But are there any other recommendations? ⌘ Read more

First experience with my new unlimited mobile phone contract while traveling: The phone hotspot works much better than the ICE (German high speed train) WiFi usually does. At most, there are small interruptions in tunnels, but otherwise surfing, writing e-mails, and listening to music work perfectly. Even remote programming works. It was worth it… ⌘ Read more
