.@GDSTeam The domains user register.gov.uk (for example register.register.gov.uk) that redirect to the Archived Registers seem to have disappeared. Is this a temporary outage? Thanks!


Someone just robbed Waitrose whilst I was at the till paying for my lunch. The cashier raised his eyebrow at the monitor but couldn't do much There were lots of middle-class cries of "He's stolen the Prosecco" from over by the door.


This is an excellent read for anyone who has ever wondered what all the fuss about DACs in Digital Audio is all about.

Randomly came across the in-depth information on DACs that I wanted about 18 months ago electronics.stackexchange.com/a/636993

The Tripitaka Koreana - carved on 81258 woodblocks in the 13th century - is the most successful large data transfer over time yet achieved by humankind. 52 million characters of information, transmitted over nearly 8 centuries with zero data loss - an unequalled achievement. 1/

The failure of the UK state - and it is a failure of the state - to provide good geolocation services to the emergency services is a) annoying and b) harmful to the emergency services and people who rely on them

"Running a successful open source project is just Good Will Hunting in reverse, where you start out as a respected genius and end up being a janitor who gets into fights." Quote attributed to @cra, and I don't think I've ever seen anything more true posted.


The Orient Express is in London Victoria again. I've not seen it for ages. It's attached to a Diesel engine sporting the name plaque "Queen's Messenger" along with a Deutsche Bahn plaque.

i have been playing around and experimenting with histograms and quantile sketches a common theme is some kind of logarithmic bucketing, so the sketch can store a wide range of values with reasonable relative precision, e.g. 1%

i like the look of this UDDSketch algorithm from @rebeljam et al. github.com/cafaro/UDDSket… arxiv.org/abs/2004.08604 similar to datadog’s quantile estimation algorithm, but with bucket collapsing that assumes less about the statistical distribution
