Clearly consumer products are going the wrong way in term of privacy...
This obviously keeps progressing. I think a good resource summarizing the new ways to do things would be necessary.
A nice reminder that the π value is not as set in stone as we tend to believe. It depends on the metrics we're using.
Nice to see the same optimizations than in a previous article play out in Python. By leveraging Numpy and Numba it goes a long way already.
Neat walk through the Base64 encoding. It's very useful so it's better if it's well understood.
Good introduction and advocacy for transform matrices. I often see people struggling with them but they're definitely worth mastering.
Some people lash out at the wrong group... they should be angry at YouTube not at the tiny team making the extension trying to help block the ads.
Some more deserved praises for Sqlite. It's finding its way in more and more places.
Interesting search for the right ingredients for great storytelling. Some are generally well known and somewhat accessible with some work. The secret sauce is more surprising and requires quite some work in my opinion.
Things could indeed be more convenient... if this was the case we'd probably have less security breaches. Making super complex tools and then complaining that people are holding them wrong isn't gonna help.
Attacks on machine learning models are getting more accessible. This means even more care will have to be taken to deploy and use those.
Very cool idea. Lots of history in there! There were things I even forgot about.
OK, I admit this looks like a very cool product. This could turn interesting for private infrastructures. Trying to get the benefits of cloud approaches while keeping it under control.
It's nice that we get more content usable on mobiles... but this shouldn't come at the expense of bad usability when on desktops.
OAuth is nice and taking over the world... but don't weaken the security, follow all the steps and verify the tokens you get handed.
Time and synchronization are complicated in distributed systems. Luckily there are solutions to try to ease the pain. It's not completely avoidable though.
Wanna get started playing with shaders? This is a neat into leading to a blob made of metaballs.
Looks like an old website, still it does a neat job of explaining how the field of knowledge representation evolved. This is nice to see a reference for beginners since I dabbled quite a bit into this years ago and it wasn't very accessible.
I never liked the "it's neutral, it's just a tool". A very naive view in my opinion. New illustration of this with Twitter. Tools are inserted in a socio-technical system, and the sociology side will influence the design enough to make the tool not so neutral. Here clearly all hell broke loose and it became a massive danger to democracy due to the level of misinformation and the type of messages which are advantaged by the changes.
Another testament to the fact that it's probably better to have minimal dependencies on your webpages. This is especially true for documents if you're aiming for longevity. If you're making an actual application the trade-off will be different.
