Inside CPython's Clever Use of Bloom Filters for Efficient String Processing

Tailwind is great. Y'all love to overcomplicate things. I hope this helps you keep them nice and simple#tailwindcss #webdevelopment ALL MY VIDEOS ARE POSTED ...

By all accounts, TypeScript has been a big success for Microsoft. I've seen loads of people sparkle with joy from dousing JavaScript with explicit types that can be checked by a compiler. But I've never been a fan. Not after giving it five minutes, not after giving it five years. So it's with great pleasure that I can announce...

A novel way to reverse Javascript minification using LLMs.

Visual Studio Code for the Mac, once known as Mono Develop then Xamarin Studio, is being shut down by Microsoft. Visual Studio for Mac will continued to be supported with bug fixes and Apple platform updates for one more year.

How to stick with them, and why you should start them in the first place. A chat with Vic Vijayakumar.

Does anyone know of a document store than can run in memory like HsqlDB or configured to run on little resources (similar to postgres)?...

Over the years, I've seen a lot of confusion about JavaScript function invocation. In particular, a lot of people have complained that the semantics of this in function invocations is confusing. In my opinion, a lot of this confusion is cleared up by understanding the core function invocation primitive, and

Their development Scalene, an open-source tool for dramatically speeding up the programming language Python, circumvents hardware issues limiting computer processing speeds. A team of computer scientists at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, led by Emery Berger, recently unveiled a prize-wi

I use a bit weird development setup. Since VisualD, the official plugin for VS adding D language support, does not have dub support (which D's official package manager, and without it a lot of things get very hard to do, like dependency management), I have to use VSCode as my main code editor, build my code in command line, then...

Software is complicated. Machine learning, microservice architectures, message queues... every few months there's another revolutionary idea to consider, another framework to learn. And underneath so many of these amazing ideas and abstractions is text....

Adding abstraction to your code always feels like the right thing to do. But when you add abstraction, you add coupling which can often undermine the value of the abstraction.

I've been using emacs since 2010. I use doom emacs now, but I have written my own overcomplicated config at one point in the past. I've grown used to it, but sometimes when emacs chokes on some input due to its single threaded nature I have time to wonder if there's something better for me out there....

Supposedly, it was only supposed to happen with high-precision trackpads, but it happens to all my devices. I do however have a graphic tablet and an old PS/2 keyboard connected to my motherboard, but all devices cause such issues on my PC at least. I tried my best to follow MS documentations as closely as possible, so unless...

This is the full story of the vulnerability we have discovered within Visual Studio Code (VS Code) concerning the handling of secure token storage. While designed for isolated storage for each extension, this vulnerability presents a high-risk “Token Stealing” attack. A malicious extension could expose third-party...
