Also, it's likely a pessimistic estimate... Indeed, it's mostly based on a list from Kagi, which likely doesn't list many sites which would qualify.

Looks like an interesting ORM which brings advantages of the Django one without all the bagage. It's still young, let's see how it evolves.

Vulkan compute shaders are very much capable nowadays. Exemplified by its use in FFmpeg.

Let's help them help us. There are a few things to have in place for governments to be able to pay maintainers.

Here are the main levers to make Python code faster. Tries also to distinguish the effort level of each approach.

Interesting model for bringing architectural and organisational changes. This is indeed at least in part political games... so you need some political capital to spend.

Kind of obvious I think, but this likely bears repeating. Containers are not a magical recipe for security. There are many attack vectors to keep in mind and evaluate.

Wondering how JPEG works? Here is a primer.

On the little known history of Lotus Notes. Crossed its path as a teenager during an internship at a bank. Can't say I remember it fondly though.

Good initiative to push these unjust laws to their limits. Hopefully it'll show how absurd they are.

Interesting lesson here. It looks like XML still has its place in our modern tool belts. We should stop dismissing it too quickly.

It looks more and more likely that the current age verification fever has dark origins...

Good exploration on how to make grid shaders. It's definitely not a simple problem.

Interesting look at Zig's comptime feature. It's not a purely Zig post though, does a good job of explaining parametricity and the implications of loosing it.

Looks like an interesting approach to lift some of the limitations around the Rust trait system. The learning curve doesn't look too great though, clearly requires effort to get into.

In praise of code reviews. This article does a good job showing all the advantages if properly managed. Teams have to pay attention to latency but otherwise you get lots of benefits for not so much time spent.

An initiative to monitor I guess. There's clearly a need for a more "opinionated" setup for Yocto based embedded systems, this is going in that direction.

Yes, we have lots of layers nowadays. But you can read them to figure out when something doesn't work like you expect. This is one of the most important skills of the trade.

Not sure it'll keep being efficient if the political heat keeps going up. Still this is a nice idea.

Excellent piece, indeed legal is not the same as legitimate. More often than not the law is lagging behind and things might be wrongly "fixed" at a later date. In that interval that's when our communities need to build its own tools to protect the commons. We're clearly reaching such an inflection point. Interestingly, I think there's is a difference of reaction between the people with a Free Software culture and the ones with an Open Source culture.
