Correctness and composability bugs in the Julia ecosystem (2022)

Why I no longer recommend Julia For many years I used the Julia programming language for transforming, cleaning, analyzing, and visualizing data, doing statistics, and performing simulations. I published a handful of open-source packages for things like signed distance fields, nearest-neighbor search, and Turing patterns (among others), made visual explanations of Julia concepts like broadcasting and arrays, and used Julia to make the generative art on my business cards.

Managing Dotfiles with Make

news.ycombinator.com Matheus Afonso Martins Moreira 2025-10-03 13:15:26

Managing dotfiles with Make Make is an old tool, an assembly language of sorts for build systems. Many have tried to replace it. Many have tried to reinvent it. Most people prefer to avoid it if at all possible. So why use it to manage dotfiles of all things? There's at least one good reason to do this: make is ubiquitous. Pretty much every machine that has ever compiled software will have a copy of this thing. Using make as a dotfile management tool eliminates the need to install yet another

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-10-10 23:37:26

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority TL;DR Google Maps has updated its public transit navigation to allow full map access during trips. Users can now search, browse, and reroute without cancelling or restarting their current journey. Plus, new walking directions feature includes pedestrian incident reporting like crashes or slowdowns. Google Maps walking and transit guidance has been pretty abysmal for years now.

European policymakers finally plan to fix the cookie banner headache they created

Why it matters: More than a decade ago, Europe rewrote internet rules which effectively forced the entire internet to adopt stricter rules on cookie consent by amending the ePrivacy Directive. Since 2009, from big tech giants, to small personal blogs, and virtually any internet-based organization had to display a "cookie banner" to first-time visitors. Collectively, European users spend an estimated 575 hours every year clicking through those pesky prompts. The European Commission is preparing

Broadcom’s prohibitive VMware prices create a learning “barrier,” IT pro says

When the COVID-19 pandemic forced kids to stay home, educators flocked to VMware, and thousands of school districts adopted virtualization. The technology became a solution for distance learning during the pandemic and after, when events such as bad weather and illness can prevent children from physically attending school.

Scarlet turns Shakespeare into an animated fantasy epic

Well, I was wrong, and I did manage to make it to one last day at the Toronto International Film Festival. One of the movies I wanted to see the most this year was Scarlet, the latest from Mamoru Hosoda, whose most recent film was the metaverse fairy tale Belle. Whereas that film was a reimagining of Beauty and the Beast, Scarlet is a twist on Hamlet that’s full of bold, creative ideas. I mostly enjoyed it, but unfortunately it’s saddled with an ending that doesn’t really fit. I also managed to
