Greg Hluska is a startup founder/leader and software developer from Regina, Canada. Some of his professional interests include dev ops, Python, Javascript, web scrapers/bots, working with large amounts of data and containerization with Docker or LXD.
His company, Greg Hluska Consulting, has been solving startups' toughest problems since 2010. In that time, he has spun off several products - some have been quite successful and others are funny conversations to have over a drink.
Operating since 2010, Greg Hluska Consulting specializes in helping companies solve their hardest technical problems. Sometimes that involves helping a very early stage founder build an MVP. Other times, it involves helping more established startups migrate their services over to AWS.

A proud father to an 8 year old, Greg spends most of his free time with his child. She is really into video games (especially Minecraft), math, art and chess. He's really into her and so he likes spending time doing those things with her.
When he's not working or parenting, Greg is heavy into watching baseball, running stupid distances, cooking and reading about economics and history. A recovering publisher with a cooking problem, his two most dangerous dreams are to start another magazine (because publishing is in such great shape) and to start a restaurant. If you ever hear that he's started a magazine about his new restaurant, consider an intervention.

O'Leary argued that employees should always be reachable, even at 2 a.m., or risk losing their jobs. However, the author counters this perspective, emphasizing that a well-structured company should never rely on single points of failure that require middle-of-the-night calls. Good leadership means building a resilient business model where employees can maintain work-life balance without jeopardizing operations. ( read the article )

In this article, I compare the randomness of secret keys generated using Django's built-in key generator and my custom JavaScript method. Using statistical tests like Chi-square, KS test, runs test, and entropy calculation, I analyze the randomness and security of the keys. Both methods show high levels of randomness, with Django's keys slightly outperforming in some tests. ( read the article )
