Definitely a handy catalog for designing distributed systems.

You have to know which battles to pick. If you don't... This article shows well what will happen. And it'll indeed turn into a curse.

Looks like a nice tool to navigate mistakes with Rust complex type system.

Even with conservative estimates some uses are very much energy hungry... Especially when they support a surveillance apparatus. Many reasons to not get there.

Little known docker feature but definitely useful for remote execution.

An excellent introduction to LaTeX! Also does a good job to push more modern constructs (I learn a couple). I hope it'll push people to pick up LaTeX more often, it mustn't become a dying art form.

A bit of an unusual view about cohesion. The approach is interesting though.

Nice piece, aren't we loosing something when we eliminate boredom from our life?

When hype meets group think, you can quickly create broken culture in your organization... We're seeing more examples lately.

I like this piece. In most case it's the thinking which is important not the writing. So even if the language is subpar it's better if you write yourself... except if it's not worth the effort in the first place.

Looks like the productivity gain promises are still mostly hypothetical. Except on specific limited tasks of course but that doesn't cover for a whole job. Also, when there is a gain it's apparently not the workers who benefit from them.

This also carries privacy concerns indeed even for local models. It all depends how it's inserted in the system.

This is almost by definition. The post mortem needs to be wisely crafted to look also at previous incidents and the actions to mitigate them.

Nice trick! Using vim as man page viewer. I shall try this.

The introduction of concepts has indeed been a nice improvement to the language.

I wonder how much the focus on Python biased that study... Still, maybe we've been wrong at so much emphasis on math skills for computer science and computer engineering curricula.

Nice and down to earth tips for your technical talk to go well.

Interesting trick in Java internals which is especially improving map lookups.

This is an important position paper in my opinion. The whole obsession towards the ill defined "AGI" is shadowing important problems in the research field which have to be overcome.

This move is really unsurprising... It's bound to become another channel for advertisements to try to cover the costs of running it all.
