Oh, so that's why JetBrains data thing is called DataLore. TIL

Eli5: Haskell type classes are not classes (like Java or PHP classes); they are comparable to Rust traits -- which are different from PHP traits which are comparable to Java/C# int…

Works on all my servers. This is terrifying.

Microsoft started as a programming language company (MS-BASIC) and they never stopped delivering serious quality software there. VB (classic), for all its flaws, was an amazing RAD…

Off-topic, but this ongoing trend of brands getting TLDs is really starting to infuriate me. It's not what TLDs are for! Sony is a Japanese company, so it should use sony.com or so…

Well-written post. Very interesting, especially the interactive widgets.

57 is 3 times 19. The standard divisibility rule for 3, 6 and 9 in base 10 is to sum the digits until you only have one left and check if it's one of those. Here, 5+7=12, 1+2=3, so…

For anyone wondering, NonNull (along with other "constrained" types like NonZero integers) uses internal compiler attributes ( https://doc.rust-lang.org/src/core/ptr/non_null.rs.ht…

About 90 millions rods vs 6 millions cones. Sometimes I'm surprised we can even see detail at all. Though it certainly helps that they're not uniformly distributed; most cones are …

There is a very real risk of political candidates committing political fraud, getting elected thanks to it, and putting pressure on the judiciary branch to lower their chances of g…

Had a lot of fun making the animations for this one.

As I understand it, the moment you're processing someone's personally identifiable information, you're in the red zone, GDPR-wise. The users consented to publish their info on Blue…

Yeah, but that doesn't solve the data privacy problem. Not that I care, I'd love to be able to do all sorts of stuff with scraped datasets.

Very nice. Modern GPUs really are fast as drawing points. It's pretty similar to a project I've been working on for the past year, scraping Facebook instead of BlueSky (which is a …
