This would probably be a good thing indeed. We'll see of the web culture will evolve next.
Interesting approach I didn't know about. Definitely worth trying. I like how it seems to bake risk management in.
Error handling is not easy. Having simple rules to apply for complex systems is a good thing. Of course the difficulty is to apply them consistently.
Ever wondered if we could solve the Fizz Buzz with a Fourier series? Trigonometry is magic.
Interesting point of view. Indeed, you probably want things to not be available 100% of the time. This forces you to see how resilient things really are.
No, don't go assuming you can use disks instead of ram. This is not what it is about. It shows ways to get more out of your disks though. It's not something you always need, but sometimes it can be a worth endeavor.
Clearly something is brewing right now. We're seeing more and more people successfully switching.
Depending on the ecosystem it's more or less easy indeed. Let's remember that error handling is one of the hard problems to solve.
If you're wondering where emoticons and emojis are coming from, this is a nice little piece about that.
If there's one area where people should stay clear from LLMs, it's definitely when they want to learn a topic. That's one more study showing the knowledge you retain from LLMs briefs is shallower. The friction and the struggle to get to the information is a feature, our brain needs it to remember properly.
That's an interesting approach. Early days on this one, it clearly requires further work but it seems like the proper path for math related problems.
I wonder what the whole series will give. Anyway I very much agree with this first post. Too often projects have a single product manager and that's a problem.
The findings in this paper are chilling... especially considering what fragile people are doing with those chat bots.
Didn't know about that clippy feature. This is neat, allows to precisely target some of your project rules.
Wondering what happened at Cloudflare? Here is their postmortem, this is an interesting read.
Now for Rust developers... this is a good illustration of why you should stay clear from unwrap() in production code.
Kind of ignore the security impact of the needed upgrades, but apart from this I largely agree. Most applications try to push more features in your face nowadays, unneeded notifications and all... this is frankly exhausting the users.
This is a nice little algorithm and it shows how to approach it in Python while keeping it efficient in term of operations.
If you're dealing with multithreading you should not turn to mutexes by default indeed. Consider higher level primitives and patterns first.
Struggling to understand tangent space and normal maps? This post does a good job to explain where this comes from.
I don't get why object oriented programming gets so much flack these days... It brings interesting tools and less interesting ones. Just pick and choose wisely like for any other paradigm.
