Haskell Problems For a New Decade It has been a decade since I started writing Haskell, and I look back on all the projects that I cut my teeth on back in the early part of this decade and realise how far the language and tooling have come. Back then Haskell was really barely usable outside of the few people who would “go dark” for months to learn it or those lucky enough to study under researcher

More than 4 years have passed since the initial introduction of Vue 3. Many discussions over several RFCs and a lot of influence from other modern frameworks including React and Svelte have shaped Vue to become probably the most powerful and well-rounded framework out there, capable of progressively supporting applications of any scale and architecture. Sounds exciting, right? Well, the truth is f
NSA urges orgs to use memory-safe programming languages
C/C++ on the bench, as US snoop HQ puts its trust in Rust, C#, Go, Java, Ruby, Swift The NSA has released guidance encouraging organizations to shift programming languages from the likes of C and C++ to memory-safe alternatives – namely C#, Rust, Go, Java, Ruby or Swift. "NSA recommends that organizations use memory safe languages when possible and bolster protection through code-hardening defense
Twitter, cut in half
“Elon Musk holding a chainsaw,” Stable Diffusion I. The Snap The email went out at 5:21 PT PT on Thursday. For a full week, Twitter employees had waited in hopes of hearing something directly from their new owner. Instead, they had heard only from Elon Musk’s intermediaries, and even then usually not directly. Managers would share some strange new edict — print out your code; scratch that, now shr
A decision that arises over and over when designing concurrent programs is whether to represent program state in control flow or as data. This post is about what that decision means and how to approach it. Done well, taking program state stored in data and storing it instead in control flow can make programs much clearer and more maintainable than they otherwise would be. Before saying much more,

Sass just launched a major new feature you might recognize from other languages: a module system. This is a big step forward for @import. one of the most-used Sass-features. While the current @import rule allows you to pull in third-party packages, and split your Sass into manageable “partials,” it has a few limitations: @import is also a CSS feature, and the differences can be confusing If you @i
10/19/2023 Flappy Bird Implemented in Typescript types The ultimate type-level trickery I wrote a 2D flappy bird game, purely in Typescript types: Yes you heard that right, this game is written entirely in Typescript type annotations, which—if you didn’t know—are Turing complete. So how the hell am I runnning it in the browser and rendering the game in Typescript types? The basic rundown is that I
Safari 17.4 adds vertical writing mode support for form control elements across macOS, iOS, iPadOS, and visionOS. Setting written text vertically is commonly observed in East Asian languages. For example, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean (CJK) may be written vertically and read top-to-bottom, flowing in lines from right to left. Similarly, Traditional Mongolian is a vertical script that flows in line
In these dark times, we are all in sore need of good news. Thankfully, I can report some: Emacs has defeated vi in the Editor Wars! Some people, laughably, believe that vi is more popular than Emacs. Fortunately, these fools are completely wrong, and it is easily proven. Here’s how. Take out an iPhone and get it set up with a Bluetooth keyboard. Open a web browser and start typing in the address b
Today with the release of Docker Desktop 3.0.0, we’re launching several major improvements to the way we distribute Docker Desktop.

We will also download the update in the background so that all you need to do to benefit from it is to r

We’ve just open-sourced Solid Queue, a new backend for Active Job that we use in HEY to run about 1/3 of our roughly 18 million jobs per day. We’ll be moving more jobs in the coming days until we run HEY exclusively using Solid Queue. Besides regular job enqueuing and processing, Solid Queue supports delayed jobs, concurrency controls, pausing queues, numeric priorities per job, and priorities by
Understanding and Decoding a JPEG Image using Python July 14, 2020 Hi everyone! 👋 Today we are going to understand the JPEG compression algorithm. One thing a lot of people don’t know is that JPEG is not a format but rather an algorithm. The JPEG images you see are mostly in the JFIF format (JPEG File Interchange Format) that internally uses the JPEG compression algorithm. By the end of this arti

Months ago, when I heard that the legendary JS1k game jam would not be continuing, I talked it over with some other devs and decided to help fill the void we would host a 2k game jam on itch called 2kPlus Jam. The primary goal of this comp was to create a game that fits entirely in a 2 kilobyte zip file. That is incredibly small, for point of reference a 3.5 floppy disk could hold over 700 of thes

More than 10 years ago, GitHub.com started out like many other web applications of that time—built on Ruby on Rails, with a single MySQL database to store most of its data. Ov

Rust is awesome, for certain things. But think twice before picking it up for a startup that needs to move fast. All of the art for this post was generated using DALL-E.I hesitated writing this post, because I don’t want to start, or get into, a holy war over programming languages. (Just to get the flame bait out of the way, Visual Basic is the best language ever!) But I’ve had a number of people
Polyfill is a popular tool for enhancing browser capabilities. Many users access it by linking to the polyfill.io service, which has recently changed ownership to a new party. In order to ensure that everyone can maintain reliable and trusted access to Polyfill features, we have identified a few alternatives: First, Fastly is offering polyfill-fastly.net and polyfill-fastly.io as a free, drop-in r
A recent article on WebAssembly Garbage Collection (WasmGC) explains at a high level how the Garbage Collection (GC) proposal aims to better support GC languages in Wasm, which is very important given their popularity. In this article, we will get into the technical details of how GC languages such as Java, Kotlin, Dart, Python, and C# can be ported to Wasm. There are in fact two main approaches:

And while this upgrade meant that we had futureproofed our codebase and could

The existing specifications that provide the ability to update DOM update after an initial render are limited. Frameworks can walk the DOM or query for nodes, and use JavaScript APIs to imperatively update attributes, text content, and other JavaScript properties of these nodes. However, the framework code that initially locates DOM that will need to be updated and repeatedly updates that DOM has
