    The reason novelty matters for mathematics is that they strictly deduplicate all claims. If someone claim they proved something that we already knew was solved, than that wouldn't …

    There's something unnerving about this blog post. Paraphrasing: "The world's top security researches and AI labs are pouring all their VC money into finding as many security issues…

    Here's a free, fact-packed, breakdown on both smoking and "snus" in Sweden: https://www.folkhalsomyndigheten.se/the-public-health-agency... Numbers are from 2024, but smoking was a…

    I somehow find the concept of a general time series model strange. How can the same model predict egg prices in Italy, and global inflation in a reliable way? And how would you eve…

    "Simply put: It’s a big mess, and no off-the-shelf accounting software does what I need. So after years of pain, I finally sat down last week and started to build my own. It took m…

    Doesn't matter which one. All of them can do things like this now, given a good enough feedback loop. Which your problem has.

    Added features since initial release: - Bleach-like sanitization feature built in and enabled by default - Transforms API for simple HTML mutations - Rewamped docs - Playground pow…

    I see that the blog post is mentioning not finding the web100k dataset, it's here: https://github.com/EmilStenstrom/web100k

    As the author, it's a stretch to say that JustHTML is a port of html5ever. While you're right that this was part of the initial prompt, the code is very different, which is typical…

    To see the actual errors, just paste your HTML here and see: https://emilstenstrom.github.io/justhtml/playground/ - any parsing errors show up below the input box. Some tags do req…

    Data driven test suites are really good for building trust in a library. Both the html5lib-tests suite and my recent xss-bench are examples of this!

    The reason for this was to be able to build trust in the new sanitization features of my other project: https://friendlybit.com/python/justhtml-sanitization/

    Thanks for flagging this. Found multiple errors that are now fixed: - The quoted test comes from justhtml-tests, a custom test suite added to make sure all parts of the algorithm a…

    I've checked the numbers for html5lib, and they are correct. They are skipping a load of tests for many different reasons, one being that namespacing of svg/math fragments are not …

    Excellent feedback. I'll have a look at the running of html5lib tests again.

    Hi! The expected errors are not standardized enough for it to make sense to enable --check-errors by default. If you look at the readme, you'll see that the only thing they're chec…

    I think the reason this was an evening project for Simon is based on both the code and the tests and conjunction. Removing one of them would at least 10x the effort is my guess.

    The other way around works as well! ”Get me to 100% test coverage using only integration tests” is a fun prompt!

    My feeling is that my code depends more on the html5lib-tests work than on html5ever. While inspired by, I think the macro-based Rust code is different enough from the source so th…

    Another interesting experiment is to start from the html5lib-tests suite directly, instead of JustHTML. Worth another experiment?
