How modern browsers work
Note: For those eager to dive deep into how browsers work, an excellent resource is Browser Engineering by Pavel Panchekha and Chris Harrelson (available at browser.engineering). Please do check it out. This article is an overview of how browsers work. Web developers often treat the browser as a black box that magically transforms HTML, CSS, and JavaScript into interactive web applications. In tru

CUPID: for joyful coding
What started as lighthearted iconoclasm, poking at the bear of SOLID, has developed into something more concrete and tangible. If I do not think the SOLID principles are useful these days, then what would I replace them with? Can any set of principles hold for all software? What do we even mean by principles? I believe that there are properties or characteristics of software that make it a joy to

Testing a new encrypted messaging app's extraordinary claims
How I accidentally breached a nonexistent database and found every private key in a 'state-of-the-art' encrypted messenger called Converso I recently heard this ad on a podcast: I use the Converso app for privacy because I care about privacy, and because other messaging apps that tell you they're all about privacy look like the NSA next to Converso. With Converso, you've got end-to-end encryption,
Since I was unable to travel for a couple of years during the pandemic, I decided to take my new-found time and really lean into Rust. After writing over 100k lines of Rust code, I think I am starting to get a feel for the language and like every cranky engineer I have developed opinions and because this is the Internet I’m going to share them. The reason I learned Rust was to flesh out parts of t

The Go Programming Language and Environment – Communications of the ACM
Go is a programming language created at Google in late 2007 and released as open source in November 2009. Since then, it has operated as a public project, with contributions from thousands of individuals and dozens of companies. Go has become a popular language for building cloud infrastructure: Docker, a Linux container manager, and Kubernetes, a container deployment system, are core cloud techno
Before diving into some of the recent developments at Evernote, let’s quickly address the elephant in the room (well, the other one). The past seven months or so have been full of change, leading some users to express their uncertainty about our long-term intentions for Evernote. To be clear: Bending Spoons took the reins to help Evernote thrive once again, not as a way to make a quick buck. Our l

A few times a week, someone asks on the #gui-and-ui channel on the Rust Discord, “what is the best UI toolkit for my application?” Unfortunately there is still no clear answer to this question. Generally the top contenders are egui, Iced, and Druid, with Slint looking promising as well, but web-based approaches such as Tauri are also gaining some momentum, and of course there’s always the temptati

How Netflix Really Uses Java
Transcript Bakker: I'm going to talk about how Netflix is really using Java. You probably know that Netflix is really just about RxJava microservices, with Hystrix and Spring Cloud. Really, Chaos Monkeys are just running the show. I'm only half getting here because a few years ago, this was actually mostly true, maybe except the Chaos Monkeys. This stack was something that we were building on in t
Reading the excellent article by JeanHeyd Meneide on how broken string encoding in C/C++ is made me realise that Unicode is a topic that is often overlooked by a large number of developers. In my experience, there’s a lot of confusion and wrong expectations on what Unicode is, and what best practices to follow when dealing with strings that may contain characters outside of the ASCII range. This a
This article is a translation, the original version is available here. I started using the OCaml language regularly around 2012, and since then, my interest and enthusiasm for this language have only grown. It has become my preferred choice for almost all my personal projects, and it has also influenced my professional choices. Since 2014, I have been actively participating in public conferences d
Exactly ten years ago today, we published "Why We Created Julia", introducing the Julia project to the world. At this point, we have moved well past the ambitious goals set out in the original blog post. Julia is now used by hundreds of thousands of people. It is taught at hundreds of universities and entire companies are being formed that build their software stacks on Julia. From personalized me
Adopting Wide Event-style instrumentation has been one of the highest-leverage changes I've made in my engineering career. The feedback loop on all my changes tightened and debugging systems became so much easier. Systems that were scary to work on suddenly seemed a lot more manageable. Lately there have been a lot of good blog posts on what "Wide Events" mean and why they are important. Here are

10 Things Software Developers Should Learn about Learning – Communications of the ACM
The dashed box on the left contains exactly the same information as the awkward textual description in the dashed box on the right. But if a developer only received one of the two to create an SQL database, they are likely to find the diagram easier than the text. We say that the text here has a higher extraneous cognitive load. When faced with a task that seems beyond a person’s abilities, it is
Type Parameters Proposal
Ian Lance Taylor Robert Griesemer August 20, 2021 StatusThis is the design for adding generic programming using type parameters to the Go language. This design has been proposed and accepted as a future language change. We currently expect that this change will be available in the Go 1.18 release in early 2022. AbstractWe suggest extending the Go language to add optional type parameters to type an

Introduction: Density Is King (With a Tiny VM) I've previously come to the conclusion that there's little reason for using bytecode in the modern world, except in order to get more compact code, for which it can be very effective. So, what kind of a bytecode engine will give you more compact code? Suppose I want a bytecode interpreter for a very small programming environment, specifically to minim
Technology Trends for 2024
This has been a strange year. While we like to talk about how fast technology moves, internet time, and all that, in reality the last major new idea in software architecture was microservices, which dates to roughly 2015. Before that, cloud computing itself took off in roughly 2010 (AWS was founded in 2006); and Agile goes back to 2000 (the Agile Manifesto dates back to 2001, Extreme Programming t
No matter what ranking system you look at, whether the TIOBE Index, the Popularity of Programming Language Index, RedMonk’s bi-annual language rankings, or GitHub’s yearly State of the Octoverse, Java has been sitting among the top three languages since shortly after its launch in 1995. To listen to the general scuttlebutt of the developer crowd over time, however, you might think that Java was in

C interpreters are a common language implementation technique and the basis for the reference implementations of languages such as Lua, Ruby, and Python. Unfortunately, C interpreters are slow, especially compared to language implementations powered by JIT compilers. In this post I’m going to show that it is possible to take C interpreters and, by changing a tiny proportion of code, automatically

Motivation Ever since TJ said “Personalized Development Environment,” the phrase latched onto me like a cobweb in a mineshaft. A Personalized Development Environment (PDE) describes an ideal setup that is tailored to your needs and preferences – it lies between a bare-bone text editor and a full-fledged IDE. It is a place where you can be productive, efficient, and comfortable. It is a place that
A new version of the GraphQL specification has been released: the October 2021 Edition. This new release comes over three years after the previous one (from June 2018) and involved 35 contributors who produced nearly 100 changes. You might think that, coming after three years of work, there will be major new features in the spec. Checking the changelog, though, we can see that most of the changes
As Elixir's Machine Learning (ML) ecosystem grows, many Elixir enthusiasts who wish to adopt the new machine learning libraries in their projects are stuck at a crossroads of wanting to move away from their existing ML stack (typically Python) while not having a clear path of how to do so.
