Howdy! I’ve moved my site to Hugo! I’ve also deployed it using AWS' static site hosting.

Here’s a few easy aliases to deploy your static hugo blog to AWS

I’m announcing my first attempt at a tool to help with Diceware master password adoption. I’ve created a single-page HTML file to quickly generate Diceware passwords from dice rolls. Here is a link to the source. And here is the live project. You can tweet at me if you have suggestions, improvements, or requests.

I put together this outline to help folks transitioning from a non-software job towards Web Development/Front End Development/UX Design. I’m no expert in the field, but I have spent a lot of time documenting and using a variety of free resources and I hope they’re useful for you. This doesn’t really dig into the steps to take to become a “full stack” developer but it’s a decent way to get your toes wet.

Thanks to all the great folks who came over to Wharton tonight for the Python User Group. I had a great time presenting and then learning about PySpark from Monetate. Some folks wanted the slides to my talk so I’ve included them Here. You’re also welcome to checkout the code I used on Github. You can also see the live project (hosted by github). PRs welcome! Lastly, some of you were curious about other ‘formulas’ for password creation.

When you’re in the process of evaluating employment opportunities one thing to consider is the cost of living in different areas. This Excel tool takes compensation information and evaluates it compared to the cost of living in different areas. The results that it provides don’t necessarily map to the exact location, rental situation, or grocery store you might find yourself in after the move. But it does give a nice baseline to check the general differences between locations.
