Somehow states the obvious: you don't always need docker. Still a good reminder, especially true with the trend of single binary web services like what can be achieved with Go and Rust.

This looks like an interesting intrusion detection tool. I like the overall approach they chose.

Somewhat surprising, never looked at ketchup this way but indeed it's a fair non-newtonian fluid. I guess it didn't occur to me because I user and encounter it too seldomly. :-)

EN: After the disaster in the OVH centers, a good reminder of a proper backup strategy that should be applied as soon as you manage some data.

FR: Après le désastre chez OVH, un excellent rappel sur la bonne stratégie à suivre pour ses backups dès que l'on gère un peu de données.

Ah, finally looks like we got an interesting dataframe crate in the Rust world. Performances seems nice too.

To be seen how it behaves in practice. The explanations of how it's designed are interesting in any case. :-)

Interesting use of templates for markdown based legal documents. Probably got a few ideas on how to use this...

That shows one of the issues of the kind of centralization IoT as currently done pushes for. Breach in one company? Plenty more people impacted...

Best part of the article is probably the stated motives:
"Kottmann said their reasons for hacking are “lots of curiosity, fighting for freedom of information and against intellectual property, a huge dose of anti-capitalism, a hint of anarchism -- and it’s also just too much fun not to do it.”"

This looks like a very interesting board to play with. It's a bit on the pricey range but other than that... Nice specs.

Now that's a fairly surprising situation. In some way this is logical though and can be seen through recent history. Unsurprisingly, this comes with its own clique effects challenges like discrimination or overprotecting "your group".

It looks like an interesting JS framework. I'm not a huge fan of the big ones which force on you how to structure everything... the apparently minimalist nature of that one feels fairly appealing. Of course need to find the contexts where is works and the ones where it doesn't.

Interesting account on the recent research around self-supervised learning. In my opinion this is still the early days but already gives some interesting results. A good reminder for me to read up more on the energy-based models. :-)

A good summary and reminder on how complicated something as mundane as this can be. From the callee you never quite know what it'll end up being, it's the call site which matters most.

I keep having a love/hate relationship with Emacs and thus I tend to stick to Vim. But since everyone is not me and I might revisit the question at some point. Let's have a good path to transition. :-)

Interesting, I didn't know SQLite could have R-Tree indices. This can come in handy for three dimensions or geospatial problems.

Do you ever need to order items stored in SQL? There are ways to do it right and ways to do it wrong. Do it right and pick something meaningful for your case. This article does a good job at listing the typical approaches.

A good reminder to get off social media and mainly use RSS again. Also proposes a bunch of good tools to work with RSS feeds including quite a few high quality free software ones. :-)

Now that looks like a very fun decide for hackers. I definitely want one. :-)

Interesting conversation of the growing pains around the introduction of async/await in Rust.

Very interesting work on the use of sparse neural networks for faster inference. This is a good way to run originally larger models with less CPU and memory penalty than using the original model while retaining result quality.

Interestingly it's likely we'll see more of those shortages in the future, probably in cycles and not only for cars. In the end this is mainly because the access to the raw materials to make semiconductors is becoming harder. As more parts of our society make things "smarter" there will be more competition from different industries to get access to those semiconductors.
