Very cute webbed site

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.

A long dismissive text about how kids, and people in general, don't know how to “use computers”. Overall, the author is right, they really don't know, but instead of approaching the topic on how to make computing more accessible, he takes pride in his knowledge (that most people lack), and tells the folks what to do (along the lines of forcing your children to learn programming).

He also mentions how Microsoft lobbied the idea of Microsoft Office being computing itself to British schools. Well, it's the same in Russia, and not just in school. For many, using MS Office is the most important skill. I never understood that. It's a very niche tool, no?! And it's very hard to use, I still only know the very basics of office suites.

Mysteries to revel in.

Plenty of books and blogs will tell you how to develop your functional programming skills or teach you algorithms. But if you’re already pretty good at that stuff, you might be better off trying to become a more virtuous human being: more in control of your emotions, more able to hold your nerve in times of crisis, and humbler about the institutional power your technical knowledge grants you.

Бывает, придёшь в кафе, там всякие круассаны и пирожные лежат красиво. Поразглядывал, выбрал, обращаешься к девушке. А она такая: «Вам с собой?» Нет, здесь. «Садитесь, к вам подойдет официант».

How about we measure the amount of times programmers touch the lines. Instead of counting the number of lines we’ll count how many times they were actually modified—we can get this information from Git (or any other SCM). The more you touch that part of the aircraft—the more effort you spent on it, right?

I called it Hits-of-Code (HoC) and created a small tool to help us calculate this number in just one line.

What a nice idea! I installed this program and ran it on Betula and Mycorrhiza codebases. For Betula it's 26350 HoC, for Mycorrhiza it's 137208 HoC. Yeah, Betula is still comparatively young! Hey, what about Mycomarkup? 23443. Oh wow, just a little less than Betula. I expected a small number.

Макс на Луне. Одна из моих любимых поинт-н-клик игр. С милой анимацией и озвучкой на нескольких языках.

Также есть и другие части, но эта мне нравится особенно.

Thanks to generics, there are some interesting new ways to program in Go. This article explains how we can use functional programming techniques like Map, Filter, and Reduce, and what kind of problems they might help us to solve.

Функции должны быть чистыми, чтобы по ним работал индекс

PRQL is a modern language for transforming data

Интересная замена SQL. Запросы для аналитики данных станет писать намного проще. Не думаю, что для чего-то другого этот проект подойдёт. Условный CRUD проще написать, используя именно SQL запросы, здесь PRQL излишен.
