Why so many people use ~/bin/? What’s wrong with ~/.local/bin?

Competing with each other would be trying to one-up each other feature-wise, whereas what I have witnessed was things like discussing trade-offs made in different languages and jug…

I haven’t tried C3 myself, but I happened to interact a lot with Christopher Lerno, Ginger Bill and multiple Zig maintainers before. Was great to learn that C3, Odin and Zig weren’…

This is such a mediocre article. It provides plenty of valid reasons to consider avoiding UUID in databases, however, it doesn’t say what should be used should one want primary key…

I switched to Helix a year ago and I’m very happy about it. I used to spend way too much of my free time configuring my editor and now that I can’t do that I use my free time to ac…

How did Waymo do this? As far as I know, replacing drivers with an AI was the goal of ever-money-losing Uber and Lyft, however, Waymo managed to get to this much sooner while havin…

It’s really sad that antitez and other people involved with Redis have to deal with all that backlash and what’s even more sad is that people are going for Valkey now. All this bre…
