SIMD programming in pure Rust
I've recently tasted AMD Zen 5 CPUs (AWS' m8a instances) and... Whooaaa. Even before talking about GPUs and NPUs, the next 5 years of CPUs will be very exciting! For

What's the largest software project AI can complete on its own?
MirrorCode is Epoch AI's benchmark for long-horizon coding: AI can reimplement entire programs end-to-end, with no access to the original source code.

A curmudgeon tries a language server
I write code roughly the same way I did ten years ago 1 1 Well, this was true when I started drafting this article. I have since adopted robots to do much more of the actual typing of code, unless it’s a project where (a) I care about code quality, or (b) I try to learn something. : I make edits in my text editor, I…

Handling secrets (somewhat) securely in shells
Sometimes, you need to deal with secrets in an interactive shell. Say, for example, you want to do things with the API of a GitLab instance for which you require authentication:

Gödel, Escher, Elisp: The Beauty of Macros
If you are an Emacs user with a keen eye, you will have noticed that in Emacs Lisp, code is data. After all, 'Lisp' is shorthand for 'List Processing'. One of E...

Any application that can be written in a system language, eventually will be
Atwood's Law predicted JavaScript's dominance through accessibility. A new corollary is emerging: system languages will win through operational efficiency and AI-assisted development.

Why are coding agents so dumb?
Models are getting better and better, while the agents that drive them languish.

AI made coding more enjoyable
To me, one of the most annoying parts of software engineering is writing code that doesn’t require thinking. It’s just a typing exercise, and that’s boring.

JEP 544: Ahead-of-Time Code Compilation
Improve startup and warmup time by making optimized native code for an application instantly available when the HotSpot Java Virtual Machine starts. Achieve this by compiling application code to native code in a training run, storing the native code in the AOT cache for use in subsequent production runs. If the…

Contracts in Nix
The Nix language lacks a good type system . There are already several configuration languages that provide static and even gradual typing (see, e.g., Cue , Dhall , or Nickel ), but none offer the ability to easily annotate legacy Nix code with types.

Why are good developers so wary of agentic development?
Good developers’ caution about agentic development comes from knowing that built isn’t the same as working in production.

Redefining Go Functions
I once wrote a Perl subroutine that would memoize the subroutine that called it. That much was useful, but then it inserted a copy of itself into the caller, so that its callers would be memoized too. A well-placed call to aggressively_memoize could back-propagate to the whole codebase, spreading functional purity…
