Definitely this. It's a good reminder of the boy scout rule. It's fine to clean up as you go and when you find the opportunity.
A good way to see the basics of computer vision. This gives all the building blocks needed.
Nice explanation of the very early steps leading to the kernel loading.
A good reminder that you don't always need a full blown forge.
A good introduction at the early steps when a process is started. Covers what happens in the kernel, the ELF interpreter and your language runtime before the main function is called.
Indeed, WebDAV is too easily overlooked nowadays although it's a respectable protocol with general availability. It's likely available somewhere in what you already use.
An interesting set of principles for code reviews.
I'm happy to see I'm actually very much aligned with one of the "Attention Is All You Need" co-authors. The current industry trend of "just scale the transformer architecture" is indeed stifling innovation and actual research. That said I find ironic that he talks about freedom to explore... well this is what public labs used to be about, but we decided to drastically reduce their funding and replace that with competition between startups. It's no surprise we have very myopic views on problems.
Interesting notes about borrow checking in Rust. Looks like it does a good job exploring the whole space of issues one can encounter with potential solutions.
Interested in how dithering works? All the algorithms you will ever need are probably on this list.
A long paper which explains what can be expressed with concepts in C++.
This is a very valid question. The most likely answer is somewhat cruel though.
Indeed it feels like the Rust community has a cultural problem around abstractions. In a way it feels similar to the one Java developed years ago. This can bring lots of complexity and obfuscation you don't want in your project.
If it fails for everyone then it's not a bad choice on your part, right?
Bunch of random script ideas. Some I don't see the point of for me, some are neat and seem useful.
It was around two years ago, but maybe a good idea to revisit it with the recent AWS outage?
Interesting historical look at how and why modal editing appeared.
Some food for thought about the use of bounded contexts in Domain Driven Design.
I like the approach. Indeed what matters is to have visibility, don't weaponize measurement otherwise the trust will falter.
Looks like an interesting alternative to pulling a full blown ETL for pushing data to ElasticSearch.
