It's been a while that I started to consider the test pyramid as fairly limiting for our thinking about tests. The dimensions proposed here give a more comprehensive model to reason about.

Fascinating story about the little known Cantor big mistake. This also shows once more, that even though we like to put people on pedestals and look for a "lone genius" or a "hero", discoveries are always a process of several minds playing of each other.

There is indeed a path for better support for WebAssembly on the Web platform. Let's just hope it doesn't take a decade to get there.

There's something I find fascinating about dithering somehow. Here are more algorithms and approach to compare side by side.

Yes we do need to talk more about them. They are ugly... but they are awesome! (in a scary way)

One more example that it should be used for NLP tasks, not knowledge related tasks. The model makers are consuming so much data indiscriminately that they can't easily fine comb everything to remove the poisoned information.

Since these ports are becoming more and more pervasive, it's nice to see a replaceable and repairable option on the market.

Interesting approach to provide more fairness to client requests.

Clearly the author is angry and he has every right to be. By closing platforms and fighting against tinkering, the big tech companies try to kill of the power user and hacker cultures. By letting this happen we all loose as a society.

An interesting resource, good way to match problems to algorithms and data structures.

Looks like a neat little lua based game engine for simple 2D.

The OpenClaw instances running around are really a security hazard...

Interesting food for thought about the information ecosystem we live in. It's been distorted by the constant stream of content, so it's very hard to find the good journalism within the noise.

This planned giant data center by Meta shows how the big players are grabbing land to satisfy their hubris. So much waste all around.

There's clearly a regulation gap for satellites. We've been putting way too many of them in orbit the past decade and it's currently going to accelerate. This jeopardizes the night sky, astronomy and the possibility of space exploration. Clearly we're making the wrong choices here.

Interesting point, there are indeed different types of "debt" in the systems we build. It likely help to be more precise about their nature, and indeed assisted coding might help grow a particular kind of debt.

Looks like a good tool when you need to search for stuff in codebases.

A good reminder that on modern hardware read-write locks are rarely the solution despite the documentation claims.

Looks like a neat little tool in the Mac ecosystem. It seems to make sandboxing easy despite a couple of caveats.

Really fun thought experiment. What if we need truly unique IDs at universe scale? Several options are explored.
