On designing finger-friendly interactions

Datasette is a tool for exploring and publishing data. It helps people take data of any shape, analyze and explore it, and publish it as an interactive website and accompanying API.

Platypus is a developer tool that creates native Mac applications from command line scripts such as shell scripts or Python, Perl, Ruby, Tcl, JavaScript and PHP programs. This is done by wrapping the script in a macOS application bundle along with an app binary that runs the script.

I've written a number of little scripts over the years, many of which I use every day. Here's a little collection.

The safest and most reliable way to deal with feature flags is to hardcode them

This is the first result to break the O(m+ n log n) time bound of Dijkstra’s algorithm on sparse graphs, showing that Dijkstra’s algorithm is not optimal for SSSP.

Крупные технологические компании производят гораздо больше выбросов углерода, чем предполагают в своих отчетах об устойчивом развитии.

Они активно лоббируют переписывание правил о том, как рассчитываются выбросы, чтобы показать чистый ноль на бумаге, но не на практике.

If you actively use Stack Overflow as a coding instrument, your reputation will be lofty; if you don't use it, you're not really a professional software engineer.

A source-control branching model, where developers collaborate on code in a single branch called ‘trunk’ *,
resist any pressure to create other long-lived development branches by employing documented techniques. They
therefore avoid merge hell, do not break the build, and live happily ever after.

The most complete list on the web about cars, bikes, trucks and other vehicles seen in movies and series, image captures and information about them.

Functions that are part of your project’s source code but can never be
reached in any execution are called “dead code”, and they exert a drag
on codebase maintenance efforts.
Today we’re pleased to share a tool named deadcode to help you identify them.

Просто напоминаю про прекраснейший блокировщик рекламы, который не только — внезапно — скрывает рекламу от любимого пользователя, но и старательно засерает статистику рекламным площадкам ("все кликают ВСЁ"), сводя на нет самый смысл персонифицированной слежки.

Различная статистика по ОСМ

Симулятор печатной машинки. Советую потыкаться и осознать, как было больно раньше стирать буквы, но как просто ставить диакритические знаки любым символам.
