I love to combine assertions with « restartability ». If you’re program has entered an unknown, failed state, just restart it from a known state. Even better if you can divide a co…

That’s a hn filter to avoid clickbait titles I think

It’s also an old devops trick to put some GB files on the FS of critical systems (databases, ..) when there are no way to dynamically add more space/volumes and monitoring is not t…

That’s a good point. Usually when people say to prefer composition over inheritance, that does not apply to the inheritance found in GUI, but as an alternative way to share behavio…

I did have a look at bevy ECS approach and find it very verbose and really foreign, it’s in « not rust anymore» territory. Macros are a dangerous tool in terms of long term maintai…

I almost never use inheritance beside using some kind of interfaces/traits to declare a contract. However, the only time where I’m missing code/data reuse through inheritance is wi…

No, IPO pops, and honey moon periods are common. And there are plenty of ways to manipulate the price, such as issuing a low float to a hyper hyped stock..

Feature flags are often ridiculously over engineered. Check a config, bdd value, env var to dynamically go one path or the other. That’s all, you must either have a small feature o…

Well, maybe for simple web apps, but for complex applications there is a noticeable slowdown, I am not even talking about monsters such as jira, but well optimized apps such as vs …

On complex problems with lengthy proofs, the first step that I would have done is to ask 5.5 pro in a new, unrelated, session, to be very critical, to try to find flaws in the argu…

The most interesting exchange, related to disclosure, is this one: https://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2026/05/01/3 > Nope, sorry, we are NOT allowed to notify anyone about…

Indeed, but the author left a note: > there are newer GPU-accelerated font rendering systems that use the vectors. I have not yet explored these.

That’s because React started as a small, focused library and evolved as even more than a framework, a whole ecosystem, complete with its own best practices

You just have to read his blog, it is short and he answered everything. > he used python and xelatex > https://github.com/ttmc/hello-world-ways

OpenAI definition: > a highly autonomous system that outperforms humans at most economically valuable work

Mounting Volume and dealing with FS permissions. They are many different workarounds but it’s a known pain point.

That’s very interesting, but as a counter point, it seems that the major spain blackout was partially caused by such a voltage increase that was not mitigated properly. So yes ther…

Well yes, but this is not a competing technology but a complementary one. You can use this to improve the efficiency of a regular solar panel and as a way to still produce electric…

Cars are an obvious application. Some parts get very hot, and any electricity produced without engine or fuel add to range / efficiency.

Yes I wonder if with the current trend, solar might become the real alternative, less expensive, less risky. But to be fair, you have to consider your « aside », because nuclear ha…

Sorry I didn’t mean implementing a raw http server like nginx, but just writing a backend.

Go has transparent async io and a very nice M:N threading model that makes writing http servers using epoll very simple and efficient. The ergonomics for this use case are better t…

You can can also run a detailed explain plan and with a suitable visualizer it’s trivial to see where the query fell apart. You get to see the actual data distribution this way.

K3s is light in terms of resources, but heavy in operational complexity, I’m not looking for a smaller version of kubernetes but for a simple way to run container backed services w…

Isn’t that limited to a single node? How would you configure a cluster? I’m trying to explore lightweight alternatives to kubernetes, such as docker swarm, but I think that the opt…
