How well do you know the 700 plus named colours? No penalties, no ads, no tracking, just guess the colour name. Feedback welcome.

jonhohle, thanks. Do you know of examples of when milliseconds are part of the session tokens or accounts being created has been exploited?

There might also be a chance you can have your webserver included in the techempower benchmarks for their next round. Their code is submitted by experts and open-source: https://gi…

Congratulations! This is really great. I am going to try it. In your benchmarks, consider adding actix which is also in Rust but considerably faster than rust axum according to: ht…

I am not a doctor - I just write code... I remember being up in arms about weird stuff in my food when I first heard about it but now I think about the wellbeing of the animals whi…

If you use wikipedia and you think they would be reliable if they were poor service, you are living a lie.

Before NLP-powered text search, it was difficult to handle synonyms or text records with different languages. This demo is a note-taking app that can accommodate 16 languages for s…

I'm glad someone else is saying it: AGI will emerge from sexbots.

I have not given transformers enough attention... but my impression is that this is still storing entities in the weights of the neural network instead of in a database where the c…

This doesn't account for synonyms. I'd rather use a document embedding search.

90M requests daily from India? I wonder if KaiOS is checking whether it's got internet access.

I'll take that as a compliment! Thanks.

I like microframeworks because they do one thing well and they don't in the way - like a library. When I use batteries-included frameworks, I end up not using a lot of what they of…

Dollar cost averaging means you aren't trying to time the market.

I used to be a stock broker. But right now I am not your stock broker. This is not advice. Great fundamental wisdom is that you can't (consistently) time the market but you should …

Cool idea for an add-on! I've noticed that I feel better about giving feedback to uncompensated developers using "this is great and" instead of "this is great but." It could make o…

My best advice for you is to write modular functions that can be tested separately rather than integrated stuff that can't be disentangled. A unit test should test the functionalit…

A reminder for us all: No matter how much faster your hardware, you can still write slower code

https://lwn.net/Articles/775238/ Dave Doyle and Dylan O'Mahony did something pretty amazing related too with websockets for Bose.

This is still super interesting, two years later but does anyone have an update? Susheel Aroskar, a Netflix engineer, did a talk about push notifications https://www.infoq.com/pres…

Yes and the bait and switch from business for flowers? And K-means??? Why not HDBSCAN?
