from Home on Erik Bernhardsson [alt+shift+b] in technology

With conversation threading (which almost everyone has enabled), Gmail was trimming the bottom of the emails we send with our new app because they were too similar to the other emails in the conversation thread. They’re similar because that’s just the link to get back into the...

Finding null JSON values in Postgres

from Applied Cartography [alt+shift+b] in technology

11 months ago
Postgres' JSONB functionality is fast and useful but when I find myself dropping down from the Django ORM into SQL to do weird things, the syntax strikes me as confusing and arcane. As such, when I need to do esoteric things it takes me longer time than I'd like, and in hopes...

Enumerating and analyzing 40+ non-V8 JavaScript implementations

from Notes on software development [alt+shift+b] in technology

over a year ago
V8 is, I'm sure, the most used implementation of JavaScript today. Used in Chrome, (and by extension) Microsoft Edge, Node.js, etc. Safari's JavaScriptCore and Firefox's SpiderMonkey are also contenders for extremely mainstream implementations. But what else is out there? What if...

On git and usability

from Posts on Made of Bugs [alt+shift+b] in technology

I’ve been helping a number of people get started working with git over the last couple of weeks, as Ksplice has brought on some new interns, and we’ve had to get them up to speed on our internal git repositories. (As you might expect from a bunch of kernel hackers, we use git for...

The Experimental Games

from Jonas Hietala [alt+shift+b] in technology

over a year ago
It’s been nine months since I started doing Experimental Games and I think it’s time to evaluate and maybe go in a new direction. At first I had been stuck for ages with my never-ending projects and I had literally nothing to show for all my coding. Well now things have changed a...

API Security in Action handed over to production

from Neil Madden [alt+shift+b] in technology

over a year ago
After a flurry of last-minute corrections and updates in response to review feedback, my book has now been handed over to Manning’s production team. That means a few weeks of copy editing and graphics polish, then indexing and typesetting to produce the final version around...

I find that ai can help significantly with doing plumbing, but it has no problems with connecting the pipes wrong. I need to double and triple check the updated code - or fix the resulting errors when I don’t do that. thih9 on Hacker News I’ve been skeptical of the AI craze...

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!
