Need to make a realtime collaboration application? This might come in handy.
Interesting preprint review. Not sure I got it all in depth, will definitely need to revisit it at some point.
Some improvements coming in SQLite transactions. Here are some early tests.
Three good advices on writing automated tests. This is necessary but not sufficient though.
Where are the limitations of using SQLite in production for web applications? Here is a good list.
Definitely this. C++ isn't going away anytime soon. Rewrites won't be worth it in important cases, so improving the safety of the language matters.
A bit long and a couple of mistakes when pointing out the flaws of story points. Still, it's definitely a worthwhile read. Quite a lot of the criticism of story points is warranted and the proposed approach based on queue theory is welcome. This is stuff you can find in Kanban like approaches and mature XP.
Django doesn't always generate the migration you'd expect. Read them before going to production. Also it's fine to adjust them.
Or examples of the collapse of a shared reality. This has nothing to do with "social" media anymore. Very nice investigation in any case.
This is indeed a problem. Somehow it became much harder to attract younger developers.
Quite a few good lessons in there. Again it's more about social skills than technical skills.
You'd expect Mozilla to know better. This is disappointing, they're no living up to their responsibility.
Interesting approach to building a new code review system. I somehow doubt it'll get traction unfortunately but it has nice ideas baked in.
A paper listing patterns to reduce latency as much as possible. There are lesser known tricks in there.
Nice little reference of what can be done with std::filesystem.
Looks like an interesting library to build portable GPU compute workloads. Cleverly tries to leverage WebGPU.
Funny experiment at drawing parallels between engineering leadership and how you should behave when hiking in nature. This works surprisingly well.
We keep finding floppies in use at surprising places. There's clearly lot of inertia for technologies getting replaced.
I'm rarely on the side of a Goldman Sachs... Still this paper seems to be spot on. The equation between the costs (financial and ecological) and the value we get out of generative AI isn't balanced at all. Also, since it is stuck on trying to improve mostly on model scale and amount of data it is doomed to plateau in its current form.
Wow! This is a really bad data breach. Apparently related to the recent data theft on the Snowflake end.
