Interesting research turning to genetic algorithms to optimize bytecode handler dispatchers.
Looks like a really nifty 3D procedural generator. I wish I'd have an excuse to use it on a project.
Kind of sad to see asserts misused so much in the Python community. Still that's a good lesson for everyone: when using an assert, expect it won't get executed when in production.
I don't understand the SQL shaming I see in some circles. It's clearly based on dubious arguments.
Interesting parallel taken with IKEA. Some of their principles translate to nice traits for software as well.
We got a problem with research around software estimates. This won't help us get better at it as an industry...
Very interesting! This is really old wisdom which should be more widespread. A few words of caution in there for everyone, me included.
Interesting way to reason about tests and classify them. I think it can be more useful than the strict "unit" vs "integration" that is way too widespread.
Looks like an interesting device to tinker with.
Might come in handy when Filelight is not available, I could see myself using this over SSH connections.
Interesting way to organize your data. This gives a library feel for sure. At least it makes me curious.
Interesting point of view... it's also about the perceived cost of a task. Of course this means one needs to get faster through practice, it's not about delivering botched work.
Interesting idea, personas help with producing features, something is needed to prevent features we don't wante.
Interesting feature from the Python language. Lots of features are actually built on top of it.
Interesting and provoking thought... Indeed it's hard to build communities while also aiming for rapid and constant growth. There's no chance of having communities properly stabilize which leads to the tribalism and bad behavior we see on social media.
Interesting ideas for using large language models. There is a world beyond the chatbot interface and it might bring more value to users and avoid some of the pitfalls of anthropomorphisation.
Signature of digital documents is definitely not as safe as we would like. All the serious formats have known flaws at this point.
Interesting experiment... with surprising results in places. What stays available or not is not necessarily what one would think. It's not that easy to be flexible and available across regions.
Funny list of anti-patterns. Not all of it is C++ specific in there, but some are good reminders of the hidden traps in the language.
Very interesting study on dependencies. This is specific to the Maven ecosystem so too early to generalize the findings to other similar ecosystems. This indicates at least the difficulties of managing dependencies, especially the transitive ones. Also tries to define the "dependencies bloat" problem.
