For a while now, I’ve been fascinated by Z3 and by SMT solving more broadly. While on pat leave recently, I was reminded of the existence of regular-expression crossword puzzles, and allowed myself to get nerdsniped by writing a Z3-backed solver. I expected to spend perhaps an afternoon cranking out...

The Universal Cup held its Stage 2: Paris during the Oct 6 - Oct 12 week (problems, results, top 5 on the left). This was one of the very rare occassions where the winner seemingly was not a veteran team, but a team THU1 consisting of university students. They were already ahead of the usual suspect...

Managing dynamically changing directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) with constraints in Postgres enables robust tracking of relationships that evolve over time. At traconiq, this pattern is central to how we manage our vehicle fleet, where trucks and trailers attach and detach constantly, and where data ca...

Polyhedral optimization is a tool used in compilers for optimizing loop nests. While the major compilers that use this implement polyhedral optimizations from scratch,1 there is a generally-applicable open source C library called the Integer Set Library (ISL) that implements the core algorithms used...

PHP’s parse_url was not compliant with RFC 3986 (generic, permissive URIs) or WHATWG URL (browser-style URLs), leading to inconsistent behavior, interoperability problems with tools like cURL, and subtle security issues such as parsing confusion.

They often said it was death threats from evolutionary biologists that had first driven the two of them...

Warp’s latest release includes full UI zoom, one of our most requested features ever. We sat down with founding engineer and Team Lead Aloke to talk about why it took so long, what finally clicked, and how a couple of flights (and Warp’s agentic coding features) led to one of Warp’s most satisfying ...

As I continue to reflect on arenas and lifetimes in C++, I realized that dealing with destructors is not so onerous. In fact, it does not even impact my established arena usage! That is, implicit RAII-style deallocation at scope termination, which works even in plain old C. With a small change we ca...
