Publishing Pepys

news.ycombinator.com Kate Loveman 2026-03-10 18:21:06

Two hundred years ago this month, Samuel Pepys’s diary was published to great acclaim. Readers of the first edition in 1825 relished Pepys’s ‘honest’ observations and ‘private anecdotes’. While writing his journal in the 1660s, Pepys had worked hard to keep it secret. He knew he was placing his livelihood at risk by recording seditious criticisms of his superiors, along with details of his own bribe-taking and sexually explicit accounts of his ‘amours’. There was much that, when writing, he did

The original LZEXE (A.K.A. Kosinski) compressor source code has been released

Last year, I discovered that the Kosinski compression format is actually LZEXE, which was used for compressing DOS executables back in the 90s and the late 80s. Its developer catalogues three versions on his website: v0.90, v0.91, and v0.91e. While only binaries of v0.91 and v0.91e can be found on the website, v0.90 can be found mirrored on various other websites.

Rust CLIs with Clap

Types Define Interfaces Types are important. In fact, I'd guess that the expressive type system in rust is the single biggest reason why so many developers love the language. Types allow us to have a contract between parts of the system about our data and how to interact with it. All programming languages have the concept of types, but these exist along several dimensions. Strongly typed vs weakly typed as well as static vs dynamic typing.

As The Guardian reports, the company's Robotaxi rollout has been a massive bust — due, in at least in part, to Musk's long-ago bet against the light detection and ranging sensors known as lidar, which are hardware that allow cars to "sense" their surroundings far more sensitively than the visual cameras that Tesla is instead using as the inputs for itse self-driving software.
