Good overview on the state management offer around React. Especially interesting is how it frames the different problems one has to keep in mind to maintain state in your UI.

Very interesting thought experiment around Copilot's legality. I'd love to see that happen and see what the outcome would be.

OK, it's 2022 and this is still not an adequate ecosystem for system programming.

Very good points in there. Indeed there's a natural tension between making and managing. You can't schedule the day in the same way. After more remote work, indeed we'll need more async communication.

Let's get the historical records straight indeed. Don't believe the web3 bullshit revisionism.

If you're still confused about [[noreturn]] this is a good short read. Indeed it's a bit annoying that it is not part of the type system.

Mysterious event... that's the problem with such centralized and homogeneous system, when something fails it is quickly at scale.

This explains fairly well the reason why I spend so much time doing git rebases or push for more readable history in branches submitted for reviews. It helps a lot with the reviews and with finding root causes of issues later on.

Looks like a neat little project for easier desktop VMs management. Worth trying I think.

There's really a problem with GitHub overall... and the Copilot move is definitely worrying. Not Copilot by itself really but how they just don't want to tackle the questions it raises.

Since I keep telling candidates interviews are also for them to know the company before hand, I welcome this kind of list. I'd like to have more candidates ask some of that. :-)

Nice primer of important characteristics of databases and transactions. With doodles so I'm biased. ;-)

OK, this looks like an interesting release, next to the performance improvements there are quite a few neat new features as well.

Looks like an interesting tool to port code to newer APIs... too bad this seems to be very much Java focused only.

Good set of advices around dicts. This is Python centric but some of it applies to other languages as well. Mind the lack of anti-corruption layer.

It's great to see GitLab be such a public and outspoken champion of remote work. Let's hope more organizations walk the path.

Very good set of advices in my opinion on how to prioritize product work in an organization. It very well accounts for the natural tension between sales/marketing and product/engineering.

This is a good question... not a good outcome overall. Are we really heading that way? Looks like it.

A couple of good advises in there for a Django project inception.

OK, this is a neat and simple trick. I think I'll start experimenting with it.
