Lots of nice advices in the followups. The previous article clearly lead to a good conversation around it.

Nice walk through for a use of PyO3 to make some Python code much faster. Nice to see how useful py-spy turn out to be in such scenarii as well.

Note it's not about impostor syndrome, I guess lots of us think we're in this category, that doesn't make it real.
Anyway, from the management point of view this is indeed a baffling situation when you encounter someone like this. What to do? Definitely not always easy, sometimes induced by the organization as well so it would be too easy to blame on the person alone. We need to pay more attention to those and there's clearly no magical recipe to handle them.

Good advice to fight against FOMO as far as reading material is concerned... just pluck things as they pass by. There's so much content there's likely redundancy anyway, hopefully. Yeah... I'm not cured.

There are nice mechanism in the Java type system nowadays to no rely on Optional all the time. This is a good reminder of the main alternative.

This is indeed a phenomenon which I find odd. Everywhere you look, culture seems like it became homogeneous... I don't like this much, but indeed it means it's easy to be distinctive if you want to.

Once again an excellent deep dive... We're getting into the physics of biking, and there are some surprises along the way! In any case this is fascinating all the thinking which went into such an object, the wheels alone are a very clever system.

Clearly aims to demonstrate the superiority of their specialized hardware for training. That said it's nice to have proper open models available (architecture, training data, weights... it's all in the open).

This looks like an interesting new authorization scheme.

Nice (even though a bit long) explanation of the skills needed for a senior software engineers. Definitely a bunch of good advises in there.

Nice historical perspective from Alan Kay about the MVC architecture pattern.

We might start in a software career attracted by the "perfection of the machines" (already debatable) but indeed to make anything meaningful we need to interact with other people. I often say it but I'll say it again: it is a team sport.

Indeed, this is the most important skill we need next to coding. Especially in a remote work culture.

Now this is a truly impressive technology! This will make facial motion capture a really smoother process.

Interesting musing about a language size and how it evolves over time. There's clearly tension between making it too big and keeping it relevant to modern uses.

Now, this starts to become interesting. This is a first example of trying to plug symbolic and sub-symbolic approaches together in the wild. This highlights some limitations of this particular (quite a bit rough) approach, we'll see how far that can go before another finer approach is needed.

How surprising, did they realize this was one more fad they were helping to fuel?

Interesting algorithm for generating image placeholders.

Training sets are obviously already contaminated... now it'll be a race of hiding such mistake under the carpet with human interventions. That'll be a boon for misinformation. That's what we get for a useless large models arm race.

Nice refactoring and design pattern catalogs.
