Server side Live Activities guide

from Christian Selig [alt+shift+b] in technology

9 months ago

Regex substitution with unicode in Haskell

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

over a year ago
While remaking the site I noticed my automatic embedding of bare youtube links sometimes didn’t work. The culprit was unicode in the document which the regex library couldn’t handle. Apparently while this would be supported by default by almost all modern languages it’s not the...

Paytm says to me that it’s PoS feature didn’t have a security risk

from Abishek Muthian [alt+shift+b] in technology

Paytm- Alibaba backed India’s leading mobile payment wallet saw a 1000 % growth in the amount of money added to its wallet during India’s demonetisation. I must acknowledge that digital wallets like Paytm, Ola money etc. did help in easing the pains of demonetisation for those...

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!
