Let's get the record about medieval time straight, shall we? They weren't as filthy as we like to pretend, far from it.

Admittedly I share the sentiment... I don't think there is any viable solution in sight though.

Lots of good advices about processes and organizations. It's nicely points out that friction is not necessarily wrong... if you get something out of it.
Also neat reminder in there that code review are here to complete work which is already socialized somehow. If you can't find reviewers it's a sign of an organizational problem when the work started.

That looks like a nifty and convenient tool.

Seriously this is an awesome and badly needed technology. Let's hope it spreads.

That's an intersecting Typescript pattern to get to nominal and refinement types despite the fact they lack from the language.

This is definitely a good musing on when not to go for "cloudy architectures". Most often people don't really need it, this needs to be properly thought out for each project. There are costs involved which you might not make sense to pay for in your context.

Nice little database pattern to avoid row contention with counters.

It's nice to see Tor is still winning even in difficult countries.

This looks like an interesting set of extensions for Java projects. Unsure if it's been properly battle tested yet. Likely need that before being really advisable.

Very cool map. Definitely useful tool to push for more train use.

I already do some of that reading code for some profiles, although it's more geared towards finding mistakes in the code. I like the proposed approach here, will try to do some more of it.

Nice tool to spice up your interactive shell scripts.

Good collection of tools, I knew a couple but not all of them. Will go well with markdown uses or similar.

That's nice to see a reusable framework to help organizations get started with their engineering ladder.

Hear hear! It's not supposed to be easy, you need to hone your practices.

Looks like a somewhat recent alternative in the search engine and document indexing space. Sounds potentially interesting.

One of the best developer tools around for analysis and profiling. I'm glad it exists, saved me a few times.

This is an interesting (and concerning) type of rootkits. Hard to tell how much of it really is in the wild at the moment.

We often forget how much of a problem it used to be.
