Still young and pretty much a one man show. This could turn into a nice tool to use C4 more productively.

This is a good overview of what the Staff Engineer can be. There's of course a lot of variation depending on time, priorities and the culture of the organisation.

Feels a bit odd to go to such length to put it in numbers. And yet, it's clear that friendships in the workplace are a must. They should be fostered rather than stifled.

Nice introduction of the C++ ownership system. Nothing new under the sun obviously but since I still encounter developers struggling with this, such introductory material is nice to have handy for sharing.

Nice ideas for setting up your own infrastructure at home.

Interesting ideas on how to approach teaching at the university. It gives a few clue on how to deal with chatbots during exams, can be improved but definitely a good start.

Not all reading is born equal. The intent matters quite a lot. Build the skill, it'll last a life time.

Get out and write indeed. You can fiddle with the tools later.

This is indeed an important cultural trait in the Rust community. This can bring challenge when integrating Rust code into a context with more ambiguity.

This is good advice. Going for something extremely small first is a good way to on board in a new project.

New packaging ecosystems bring their new attack vectors. This is definitely a teething problem which will need to be addressed soon.

Good historical perspective about the attempts to get rid of developers. This never unfold as envisioned. This is mostly about the intellectual work to build artifacts handling the world complexity, and this doesn't go away.

Or why the focus on fact checking is doomed to fail. You can't ignore our biases, the social context, and above all the toxic architecture of the big social medias.

Sounds like a very interesting model (pun intended). It's really nice to pack that much performance in a smaller neural network.

I definitely would like to have some time to fiddle with DuckDB more. It looks like a really neat alternative to something like pandas.

Clearly the regulators don't really understand the level of intrusiveness they're unleashing with mandating age gates. This is one more layer of surveillance for large parts of the population.

Neat little Python trick for testing exceptions.

Maybe we can expect improvements in how HTTP rate limiting is handled?

I'm not sure the legal case is completely lost even though chances are slim. The arguments here are worth mulling over though. There's really an ethical factor to consider.

Friendly reminder that securing APIs and secrets is a must. Not doing so can have really bad consequences.
