note Linux memory accounting is full of metrics that look similar but measure very different things. This post is a short tour of the most useful ones and where they come from. How Linux Models Memory Linux gives every process a private virtual address space. Pages in that space may or may not be backed by physical RAM at any given moment - the kernel pages them in on demand and evicts them under…
Looking up the timezone for a given latitude/longitude coordinate is a common problem in some software domains. There are several databases like timezone-boundary-builder which provide mappings of geo polygons to timezones which are updated with political changes. However, the full GeoJSON file is large and complex. Doing naive is coordinate-in-polygon lookups can take milliseconds and require…
This is an LLM-generated post that summarizes benchmarks used to choose compression libraries for the localtimezone lat/lng -> timezone library A benchmark of pure-Go compression libraries against real-world binary data: H3 timezone cells from localtimezone , a library that needed fast and efficient decompression of an ~8.5 MB binary file. All ten libraries tested are pure Go with no CGo…

I tried claude-code-router with Ollama and it didn t really work with Ollama due to mismatching input/output formats. Even Claude Code with Anthropic doesn t work well out-of-the box with local (not cloud) models. Instead, at least in my experience, you have to do some more setup to get a useful Claude Code CLI working with Ollama. The below is a from-scratch setup that makes Claude Code run with…
