Idioms as Code

from Jim Nielsen’s Blog [alt+shift+b] in programming

a year ago
This is silly. I wrote code depicting common idioms. You read the code and try to guess the idiom. Answers are below the code (and, for clients viewing in supported readers, appear upside down like a children’s book). pen > sword >>> true The pen is mightier than the...

Large language models are a sustaining innovation for Siri

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

a year ago
Many people assume that large language models (LLMs) will disrupt existing consumer voice assistants. Compared to Siri, while today’s ChatGPT is largely unable to complete real-world tasks like hailing an Uber, it’s far better than Siri at understanding and generating language,...

PS4 Download UI with Pure CSS

from Making software better without sacrificing user experience. [alt+shift+b] in programming

over a year ago
PS4 Download UI with Pure CSS 2021-06-20 Overall, I'm fairly impressed with the user interface design of Sony's PS4 system OS. It's minimal and keeps the content front and center. Even with it's sometimes spotty performance hiccups, I've come to enjoy interacting with it. One of...

Let's Bring Spacer GIFs Back!

from Josh Comeau's blog [alt+shift+b] in programming

over a year ago
The 90s web gave us many delightful things: web rings, guestbooks, “under construction” animations, and spacer GIFs. In this article, we'll see how I use a Spacer component to solve common layout problems, and why it's often a great tool for the job in the modern web.

Familiar Lines of Nostalgic Proportions

from somenice [alt+shift+b] in programming

a year ago
A mixed tape was once a personal show of expression. An arrangement of songs purposefully set to invoke an emotion. Happy, sad, psych-up workouts, breakups, love making… all depends. Spending time to record a deliberate mix of songs in order for someone else was devotion. When...

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!
