"A key reason behind Amex's adoption of WebAssembly is that WebAssembly demonstrated superior performance metrics compared to containers." Wasm faster than containers? I guess they…

It would be nice if python would show types in the documentation. Not only do I need that all the time, it would show python was taking type safety serious. For example, knowing th…

Download the executable? That's not safe. Even if your intentions are good, you're teaching bad security habits.

This happened to me Tuesday September 28th 2001 at 3:30pm. I know because I never rewrote the complicated e-paper code that I lost when my SD card died without a backup :(

I was looking for this too, "site:airgradient.com calibrate" brings a lot of results, so it seems like they support it, but I haven't dug in yet.

I switched to java from c in the mid 90's. I remember thinking how ridiculously wasteful it was to allocate an array on classes one at at time rather than as a block of memory. I t…

Break-point debuggers take too long in most environments (with a few exceptions). I use linters, compilers and type checkers as my first line of defense. Next, logging and unit tes…

It seems to me that they would now do studies to find out what increases or decreases nucleotide production in cells. If, for example, you found out that capsaicin in chilli pepper…

I once had to write a program for a class didn't have access to a compiler. I wrote it all in notepad and double checked everything more thoroughly than I ever would have done othe…

This quitting is completely forced in government work. Every few years the project will be turned over to an entire new group of programmers and system admins at a lower price. The…

The simplest explanation I've heard of attachment theory is kids should be attached to parents securely enough that they are comfortable transferring that attachment to friends and…

That's been my experience working with JIRA the past few months. Bug after bug and always a bug report with someone begging for a fix and being ignored.
