Stefan Zweifel shares how he reorganized his dotfiles into a minimal setup, split private config into a separate repo, and streamlined setup and Brewfile syncing with a few small scripts. Read more

My husband runs a pop-up bakery called Molta, and he needed a website. Nothing fancy: who he is, what he bakes, where to find us, etc. For a site this small, the obvious move is to pay for a Squarespace site (or something similar), click a few templates together, and be done in an afternoon. […] The...

Look at the past history of this blog. There are many blog posts about programming with AI, a few of them date back to January 2024 (like this: https://antirez.com/news/140). I’m a relatively well regarded programmer, after all. I don’t have the need to still be in the “loop” as a old man that seeks...

There were thousand tickets in the backlog, and I was on the trail of a weird printer issue. I had a suspect, but that wasn't enough to close the ticket. I'm Anonymous. This is my story. Whenever you hit the Print button, a request launches into the ether. “Print one copy of this file, double-sided....

Can you get Python to enforce constants? Yes, with type checking: Ruff won’t complain. Instead, type it as Final and run mypy: mypy myprog.pymyprog.py:6: error: Cannot assign to final name […] The post Python constants: Blocking reassignment with Final and mypy appeared first on LernerPython.

I feel that some vibecoded software changes somewhat randomly and unexpectedly. That made me think about Bruegel’s “The Tower of Babel” which shows an already quite chaotic depiction of the Tower of Babel. The story is usually told as one about pride and ambition and ultimately why people no longer ...

If you’re a web developer, you may find the title baffling. “Polyfills need defending? Who’s against them?!” you might ask. Two weeks ago, I’d be in the same boat. Polyfills and I go way back. I dug up a JSConf EU talk of mine from 2011 on exactly this topic. Trying not to think about how young I lo...

Learn how to close the audit gap in agentic workflows by leveraging Auth0 logs monitoring, Token Vault secure token exchanges, and CIBA approval flows.

Another six months have passed since our last development update, and the crates.io team has been busy. Here's a summary of the most notable changes and improvements made to crates.io since then. Source Code Viewer Crate pages now have a "Code" tab that lets you browse the contents of published crat...

I have been working on an app that still sits on React Native 0.77 and the old architecture. Slowly, as I was getting a grip on the new architecture, one of the first big refactors was related to the navigation. We were using JavaScript stack navigators, so the plan was to move everything over to na...

As our Raleigh office settled into its new space, we kept coming back to one question: what should we do with our entryway? There’s a big wall visible right from the elevators, which is the first thing people see when they step into Atomic Object Raleigh. We decided to bring in a local artist, Bella...

About immutable vs. constant in Python: – Immutable: The value cannot change. If you own an immutable shirt, you can’t change its color, or add/remove a button.– Constant: Once assigned, […] The post Immutable vs. constant in Python: Why constants aren’t enforced appeared first on LernerPython.

Welcome to the beginning. The end happened months ago but like many endings, sometimes they take awhile. The End Snook.ca has, for the better part of of the last 25 years, been mostly a professional outlet for me. What started out as “Technical Articles” turned into “a collection of tips, tricks, an...

I don't trust our new robot overlords at all. I also don't fully believe that agents are out there dropping production databases without some serious coercion to do so. And while I don't trust the robots, I trust myself only a trivial amount more, so my local access tends to be extremely thin. But n...

Two and a half years ago, with the invaluable support from 84codes, we re-examined the multithreading model inherited from Crystal 0.28 (preview MT). There are different ways to spread an application to multiple CPU cores. So far, preview MT proposed a simple solution, and it worked great for many c...

The path to promotion is not competence but a learnable set of parasitic "rat" behaviors, and here is the concrete skill-set that produces the climb.

Introduction and motivation Some of the projects I work on – notably V-Drum Explorer and At Your Service – use MIDI to interact with hardware devices. I use a couple of packages for this depending on the nature of the interaction, but the one I use most often is managed-midi, which currently has its...

For most of software’s history, the limit on what you could ship was your hands: how fast you could type, how much you could get built before the day ran out. Agents lifted that limit. A developer can now run several streams of work at once and get through more in an afternoon than used […] The post...
