Great article! I would like to add that using the Cloud SQL Proxy v2 (gcr.io/cloud-sql-connectors/cloud-sql-proxy:latest) they added the --quitquitquit endpoint to achieve the same result. In order to use it, you should do something like the following: in your main container's args add trap “curl -X POST localhost:9091/quitquitquit” EXIT in the proxy container, add to the args --quitquitquit to enable the endpoint

Create a framework to allow commanding the execution of scripts on a BLE central from your smartphone — In this article, I will talk about how you can command the execution of scripts on your laptop (acting as a Bluetooth LE Central) from your smartphone (acting as the Peripheral). If you don’t know what BLE is, or what BLE central and peripheral are, or what GATT is, it…

One library to rule them all — Handling permissions requests in Android is not as straightforward as I thought it should be, especially for beginners. Thus, I decided to write a small library to help in managing them. The library is very simple to use: choose a request code for each group of permissions you are going…

A simple tutorial that will guide you through the process of creating a BLE scanner app — Creating a Bluetooth LE scanner for Android is not too complicated. What you need is some understanding of the Android architecture and of Java/Kotlin. The most difficult part of building such an app would be…managing the permissions, or even finding what are the required permissions (at least for me). What You Need to Follow This Tutorial

Well, read this article! — We have all been there, you commit some super-important changes you made, but suddenly realize that you forgot to commit something crucial. Now you’re worried that your history will not be as clean as it was before! If only there was a way to merge your two commits together…

Part 7: The Backtracking System — In this article, we will complete our regex engine with the backtracking system. …

Part 6: the engine — It is finally time to write about the engine of the regex engine we’re building. As we already saw, the parser produces an AST as a result of the parsing of a regular expression. Now, the engine has to check whether a given string matches or not a regex. To do…

Part 5: Parser conclusion — In this article, we’ll dig rapidly through the code of the parser, which will produce the AST we discussed in the previous article in output. This will hopefully be the last piece about the parser, and then we’ll move on to the engine and the juicy part, the backtracking system. …

Part 4: The AST — In this article, I will present you the process I followed to end up with the final AST of the solution, and which are its strength and flaws (because yes, following my articles you won’t create a perfect solution, sorry). So, let’s start with the logic blocks I wanted to…
