against /tmp

from Tony Finch's blog [alt+shift+b] in programming

8 months ago
I commented on Lobsters that /tmp is usually a bad idea, which caused some surprise. I suppose /tmp security bugs were common in the 1990s when I was learning Unix, but they are pretty rare now so I can see why less grizzled hackers might not be familiar with the problems. I...

Optimize for bio cores first, silicon cores second

A big part of the reason that companies are going ga-ga over AI right now is the promise that it might materially lower their payroll for programmers. If a company currently needs 10 programmers to do a job, each have a cost of $200,000/year, then that's a $2m/year problem. If AI...

I love useRef, but it lacks the lazy initializer functionality found in other hooks (useState / useReducer / useMemo). useRef({ x: 0, y: 0 }) creates an object { x: 0, y: 0 } on every render, but only uses it when mounting — it subsequent renders it's thrown away. With useState,...

Why you can't meditate

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!
