The web has a superpower: permission-less link sharing. I send you a link and as long as you have an agent, i.e. a browser (or a mere HTTP client), you can access the content at that link. This ability to create and disseminate links is almost radical against the backdrop of...

Speeding up code with vectorization

from Kevin Chen [alt+shift+b] in programming

over a year ago
I’ve been writing a lot of math code with latency requirements these days. When I talk to people about my problems, they usually suggest multithreading and general-purpose GPU computing. These both have downsides. Multithreading might not be the best option in systems that...

Ban std::string

from Krzysztof Kowalczyk blog [alt+shift+b] in programming

2 weeks ago
The use of std::string should be banned in C++ code bases. I’m sure this statement sounds like heresy and you want to burn me at stake. But is it really controversial? Java, C#, Go, JavaScript, Python, Ruby, PHP: they all have immutable strings that are basically 2 machine words:...

Benchmarking.

Many of the most important questions for running an organization don’t have clear answers. In most engineering organizations, both the teams working on infrastructure and the teams working on product feel they are undersized. It’s also true that most individuals feel they are...

Proving that every program halts

One of the best known hard problems in computer science is the halting problem. In fact, it's widely thought[1] that you cannot write a program that will, for any arbitrary program as input, tell you correctly whether or not it will terminate. This is written from the framing of...

When Google killed Google Reader, the bloggosphere took a severe hit and the content quality went down because there weren't enough readers to justify the effort it takes to maintain a high quality blog.

What's left is a decaying wasteland of blogs, most abandoned, a lot are now SEO spam, and 99% are not worth reading. BoredReading is a way to read the remaining great blogs that survived the ice age.

To add your favorite blog, please suggest it here! I get emails every day which helps me maintain a high quality selection of blogs!
