Today we would like to share how we test concurrency primitives in Kotlin Coroutines. Many of our users are delighted with the experience of using coroutines to write asynchronous code. This does not
This blog post discusses a few alternative Rust-language memory models. I hope that this discussion is of value to the Rust community, but in the end, it is their language, so it is also their choice of memory model. This discussion takes the Rust fearless-concurrency viewpoint, tempered by…

The Clojure Core team recently released a new Clojure library, tools.build , that is a culmination of thought around batteries-included build support for Clojure projects. I won’t go into detail around the history and contents of the library in this post because much of that is found elsewhere, including the…
Recently I’ve been rambling about the amazing improvements which will land with C++20 support in our toolchains. For those who haven’t had a look at those yet, I recommend checking out the summary in the following recent blog post: C++20: An Introduction. The Update We’ve All Been Waiting For? .
Go 1.17 is making TLS configuration easier and safer by automating TLS cipher suite preference ordering.
Collabora reverse-engineers Mali G78 instruction set and releases documentation, disassembler, and assembler for its
The select part is actually fine. But for updates, especially for complex updates, it could be pretty verbose and far from being ergonomic. What would you say to this syntax instead?
Just a normal day reversing linked lists on the whiteboard.
In a world with tools like NPM that are supposed to make websites fast why have they gotten so slow?
The code for this post is at my Github repository: github.com/arxanas/detect-recruiter-spam. However, I have not included my pre-trained model, since it cont...
Without psychological safety, respect, and trust, none of the following is possible. The way we work, the work we do, and the organizations within which we work are all part of a connected system. You cannot change anything without changing everything. You cannot improve a system by tinkering with the parts. Process…
The switch true pattern isn't well known but it is incredibly useful. It's not a JavaScript specific pattern, but I use it in almost every single project.
For a while, I blocked the Tailwind keyword on Twitter. I was a bit mad that @tailwindcss and author Adam blocked me on Twitter after I wrote a bit of criticism that got popular.
Recently, we have been working on getting a large JavaScript game to run on game consoles. To make that happen, we made use of ChowJS, our ahead-of-time JavaScript compiler and runtime which can target game consoles.
A sparse matrix is a matrix that has a value of 0 for most elements. If the ratio of N umber of N on- Z ero ( NNZ ) elements to the size is less than 0.5, the matrix is sparse. While this is the mathematical definition, I will be using the term sparse for matrices with only NNZ elements and dense for matrices with all…
PostgreSQL always allowed, by default, any user to connect to any database, and create new tables (and views, and so on) in “public" schema. The one that is created by default.
Actionable steps on how to improve your Postgres database performance.
