A very precious philosopher from the 20th century. Her texts are still very precious and resonate today. In this piece it's focusing about tech relevant excerpts, she had plenty to say about today's politics as well.
This is definitely true. As long as web frontends are dominated by large frameworks, the web will always have subpar experience on mobile. And the solution isn't going to come from the mobile providers too happy to gatekeep their app store.
Definitely an interesting tool. GitHub Actions workflow aren't easy to setup while ensuring they're secure, having a tool analyzing them for issues can only help.
It's nice to see the standard still moves. Some of the additions are definitely welcome.
Interesting progress on safe type casting in Rust. This should bring nice zero copy parsing of binary data in some cases.
Indeed, those are fundamental traits to make sure you learn and make progress on your journey.
Ever wondered how to simulate 3D from 2D based primitives? Here is a nice experiment explaining how to approach it.
Looks like a very interesting Python library to build interactive 3d visualizations.
This is accurate in my opinion. Engineering and product teams need to properly negotiate, otherwise quality will suffer.
Nice technique for automating the verification of SSH host keys. It'd be nice to see wider adoption.
A nice list of the techniques used to render shadows in games.
Interesting guidelines idea to help teams manage the priorities themselves. It's written in the context of a product manager but I think it is lightweight and generic enough to apply in other contexts.
This is what you get by making bots spewing text based on statistics without a proper knowledge base behind it.
I very much agree with this. The relationship between developers and their frameworks is rarely healthy. I think the author misses an important advice though: read the code of your frameworks. When stuck invest sometime stepping into the frameworks with the debugger. Developers too often treat those as a black box.
A very useful but indeed little known feature of Firefox bookmarks.
More marketing announcement than real research paper. Still it's nice to see smaller models being optimized to run on mobile devices. This will get interesting when it's all local first and coupled to symbolic approaches.
uv keeps showing promise to make development easier. It makes everything very much self contained.
Good reminder that /tmp has many security flaws built in.
Definitely a sound advice. You don't want to be confused when debugging something because it looks too much like a variable or a property name.
Definitely the most important skill to develop. Especially in our profession.
