Go and get your voice heard! This is important matter, especially if you're interested in Free Software.
This is an interesting way to frame where the effort should be spent in code reviews.
The biology of trees is just fascinating. And there's so much we still don't know about it.
Interesting point... What to do when there's no good option in the application runtime for the needed graphics drivers and kernel combination?
More interesting design ideas in uv. Didn't know about the dashmap crate they're using here it looks like a nice one too.
Wondering what's on the mind of people working on an hyperscaler? This podcast and its transcript gives good insights.
Indeed, the terminology has been greatly confused. I think I'll die on this particular hill though. I think it's important to name things properly. That said the trick of going through a verb might just work?
Looks like an interesting framework for embedded projects.
This is a very nice satire website about the problems in our industry. Want to work in a resume driven context? Here is how!
Good questions to consider to gauge how you work. Can improve the organisation if you really get to the bottom of it.
An odd but interesting article. When a journalist randomly discovers that his wife is the best Tetris player in the world.
OK maybe a longer piece than it should be. Still the idea is interesting. Clearly you want to mind the O(n) coupling in this context.
Functional programming is made scary due to its jargon. But it doesn't have to be this way.
Github is definitely entrenched by now. Students and beginners hardly look for projects outside of it. Sad state of affair.
Interesting short article. Shows the use of DORA metrics and process behavior charts. This is a good way to test hypothesis and see the impact of processes changes or introduction of new practices. It needs to be done over time and be patient of course.
Email encryption is indeed still an open issue. There's no fix in sight for it. It's mostly a lack of political will though, so none of the big players are going to change anything.
Error handling is still not a properly solved problem in my opinion. At least the Rust community discusses the topic quite a bit. This is good inspiration for other ecosystems as well I think.
This looks like an interesting way to frame problems. It can give an idea of how likely they can be tackled with LLMs. It also shows that the architecture and the complexity greatly matter.
A very comprehensive view of Python memory consumption and the speed of common operations. Some of the numbers are higher than I expected.
This piece is (unsurprisingly) biased. Still there's some truth there. C++ is here to stay, like it or not. The safety issues are overblown and are getting addressed. Now where the article is lacking is that the language has other issues. Also, will profiles ever become a real thing?
