Generic interfaces

Generic interfaces Axel Wagner 7 July 2025 There is an idea that is not obvious until you hear about it for the first time: as interfaces are types themselves, they too can have type parameters.

The Sounds of a Dying Glacier Might Make You Cry

From trippy mushroom synths to the stressed-out "pops" of thirsty plants, recording the music of nature has long resulted in soundscapes both fascinating and moving.
