Programming

Hi all, I'm relatively new to this instance but reading through the instance docs I found:

Found it interesting.

inb4 hope it’s ok to advertise new communities here, thx!

I am an iOS Application Developer.

I wrote a proof of concept that allows the user to sign up to a service using their matrix ID e.g @user:server.test. The user then receives an activation link in an encrypted room from the service. It worked quite easily and within 2 days of fumbling around with the matrix SDK in python and FastAPI, here we are.

Dead simple CI - http://deadsimpleci.sparrowhub.io/ could be thought as an extension to any modern CI system - GitHub/Gitea/Gitlab/Firgejo/you name it , adding to default pipeline mechanism (usually based on yaml) the convenient for programmers use of general programming languages, it uses web hooks and commit statues API to report results back to native CI

from the excellent readwrite blog, covering OSINT and the tools needed for it

This is an older blog post I came across while reading this related one on syntax highlighting:

Hello everybody!

I know JavaScript is a very special boi but c’mon, you’re embarrassing me in front of the wizards.

We recently wrote about Torvalds’ atypically subtle and nuanced position on the use of LLM bots in coding. It seems that the reasons have suddenly become a little clearer.

Rosetta Code is a programming chrestomathy site. The idea is to present solutions to the same task in as many different languages as possible, to demonstrate how languages are similar and different, and to aid a person with a grounding in one approach to a problem in learning another. Rosetta Code currently has 1,339 tasks, 397 draft tasks, and is aware of 984 languages, though we do not (and cannot) have solutions to every task in every language.

I’ve been building a bytecode VM in Rust and recently implemented NaN boxing for value representation. Sharing here for anyone interested.

This science fiction / comedy / completely serious talk traces the history of JavaScript, and programming in general, from 1995 until 2035. It’s not pro- or anti-JavaScript; the language’s flaws are discussed frankly, but its ultimate impact on the industry is tremendously positive.

Double TAP is lightweight testing framework where users write black box tests as rules checking output from tested “boxes”. Boxes could be anything from http client, web server to messages in syslog. This universal approach allows to test anything with just dropping text rules describing system behavior in black box manner.

A strongly typed programming language. Interpreted and compiled. Performance in the ballpark of C. Memory-safe since decades. I feel embarrased to admit that I had been totally unaware of Seed7 until mere two months ago.

To put C++’s growth in context:

If you just want the library https://codeberg.org/janantos/brow6el

Matches my own experience when working on software where quality matters, like large and long-running scientific projects: Even if there are tight time constraints, you won’t sacrifice quality, because that would make you slower.
