Whatever you do, don’t buy a Google Pixel Watch right now

Kaitlyn Cimino / Android Authority I’ve spent nearly a year touting the Pixel Watch 3 as the best smartwatch for Wear OS shoppers, so if you’re thinking about picking one up, trust me when I say, I get it. Google’s smartwatches have made major strides in just a few short years, and with the third generation, the company delivered a more refined, more capable, and more comfortable wearable than either of its predecessors. For most people, it’s the best Wear OS watch available. It packs a powerfu

The History of the Schwartzian Transform The history of the Schwartzian Transform is fascinating, full of intrigue, competing philosophies, and cross-language reluctant cooperation. The Schwartzian Transform is the name applied to a particular implementation of a cached-key sorting algorithm. The first public appearance is probably Randal Schwartz’s Usenet post on December 16, 1994 in response to Ken Brown’s request for help: I’m having trouble sorting on the *last* word of the last field in
