A nice subset of HTML to ensure better accessibility and reduced complexity.
A good reminder that I should probably evaluate DuckDB for some of my tooling.
A good example of how much C++ improved in recent years. The problem is that we tend to stick too much to the old constructs we already know.
Like me, you find the Open Source AI Definition weak on the training data information side? You'd be right and there's a reason for it... it's probably hiding quite some open washing for the larger models. This is a good explanation of the motives and consequences.
A quick tour of the available tools to profile Spring Boot applications.
Very nice deep dive into a post-processing shader to create a painted scene effect.
This is a good view of what you're getting into with the "rewrite it in Rust" knee-jerk reaction.
Good explanation on how the agile movement scaled down about design over time in its literature. It's probably its biggest failure. The good thing is that the pendulum is starting to swing in the other direction a bit (that's probably why Beck is now working on a book series on software design).
Time management and timezones are definitely complicated. In a way it's culture colliding with computers and localisation... it can't be simple.
I definitely like the approach of having vectorisation in the RDBMS directly. This is one less moving part, less complexity at the application level to synchronize everything together. In this case it's a Postgres extension.
This is definitely getting there in terms of performance and usability. The mobile clients seem mature enough, just need the desktop clients to catch up before this becomes really something I'd feel confident enough to recommend and push for.
Yet another Git option I missed. This is definitely useful, I'll try it out.
Nice initiative from the OSI. It is timely, such a definition was surely needed. The data information part seems fairly weak though... for sure you could make a system which doesn't respect the four freedoms that way.
Interesting, there's now an official tool to replicate sqlite databases. It's still early days, we'll see which features it'll get.
Another excellent piece from Kent Beck, he's right that the real differentiator in our profession is about digging deep on topics, seeing them through even if that's on the side. Curiosity is a key trait.
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.
