This trend around critiquing code reviews on the argument of "trust" should be challenged indeed. This is just the wrong way to approach it.

Interesting new tool for easily setting up dev environments. The real added value to previous such tools is it's open source nature and the fact that you can fully control on which infrastructure the environments will be created.

Definitely this. It takes time of course, I don't do it nearly enough... I never regretted it though.

The copyright problem in all this is becoming more and more obvious...

Very early days and still hackish to use but that's definitely big news for the Python ecosystem.

Good explanation of how flame graphs are produced and how to read them. Gives a few tips on what to look for to optimize.

Nice piece, not perfect, good food for thought still. We definitely need more ethics in our craft.

Good primer on Python properties. Opens the door to lower level mechanisms in the language.

Very good interview. She really point out the main issues. Quite a lot of the current debate is poisoned by simplistic extrapolations based on sci-fi. This distracts everyone from the very real and present problems.

Definitely this. This is an interesting talk, most thing shouldn't be shiny. It's not about stagnating of course, but you should think more than twice before adding a new technology to your stack. Mastery is when you know everything that's wrong with a piece of tech, before that keep in mind the amount of unknown unknowns and the cost of exploiting something new.

This nicely goes in depth on the five domains to look at to know where you stand as a manager. Also proposes action to increase the impact. Good food for thought.

Interesting points in this article. The exact definition doesn't matter much. What really matters is the common understanding within a team of what technical debt is. It's also a good idea to be able to link it to actual money and business impacts.

It points out the security risk but it's mainly a good explanation on how Python loads modules.

Looks like a really neat tool for testing low level and kernel dependent details in a reproducible way.

Old article, still an interesting approach to making changes and looking for growth opportunities. There is value in trying not to frame everything as problems to solve.

Interesting article. This is a good introduction to the ActivityPub protocol. It also gives nice flies and pointers on how to dive deeper.

Interesting exploration on the performance of SSDs regarding write patterns. Turns out sequential IO is still a thing, just for a different reason than with good old HDDs.

Clearly inspiring... this project really went from dying to skyrocketing. I'd like to see more of those.

The copyright system is utterly broken at that point. This kind of lawsuits don't make any sense.

This clearly doesn't look as interesting as ActivityPub...
