Potentially interesting tricks for estimating. Some of it I did, some not... I guess I'll try some more of what's proposed here at some point.
This sounds like a good approach for optimizing on software durability. Obviously this means you loose other things. This is a trade-off.
Excellent use of inverse-FFT to remove halftone dots in a picture. No need for fancy ML, pure simple math does the job.
Bumped into this, didn't know about their previous experiments. I'm definitely thrilled about this development... I'll try to find more about it, paves the way to interesting little devices. I so damn hate batteries. :-)
That's a good list and a good way to approach social media.
Looks like a tiny and nonetheless powerful library for animations in web frontends.
Fascinating attack vector. It was just a matter of time I guess, the more you use blurry frontiers (be it between OSes or other important domains) the more opportunities for exploits show up.
I have to agree there. So long and thanks for the fish I guess.
Mostly about the general approach on how to profile this kind of things. Still a couple of interesting pytest specific tips in here.
Nice way to demystify syscalls in the Linux kernel. It's not that hard to add new ones.
Obviously I strongly agree with this. Participating in code reviews of free software components is a great way to improve. This applies to being a reviewer, submitting code and skimming other reviews.
Interesting description on how the FSF deals with copyright assignments, CLAs, DCOs and the various legal tools needed.
Nice comprehensive list of new features since Java 8.
Nice exploration of how to produce shadows in CSS. Make sure to read it all the way until the filter + drop-shadow approach.
Illustration of one of the traps I hate most with Python.
Similar to RR but for web frontends.
Similar to RR but for Python.
Interesting debugger to complete your arsenal next to GDB. Super nice to be able to travel back in time.
Looks like an interesting web markdown editor.
Interesting set of SQL optimizations. Also shows PostgreSQL still had (has?) some room for improvement.
