Obviously you want detailed documentation too, and examples are great for quickly grasping bigger concepts and how to integrate into other systems. In my experience the best solution are both, where examples all have hyperlinks to the actua

While not related to the topic exactly, the blur under the translucent header was so distracting I had trouble reading the article. Usually I can overlook stuff like this; I can't explain why it bothered me so much.

In my opinion, this is one of the more overlooked side effects of the covid pandemic: stretching resources in hospitals leads to lower quality care for everyone.

A hobby audio and text analysis application I've written, with no specific concern for low level performance other than algorithmically, runs 4x as fast in .net10 vs .net8. Pretty much every optimization discussed here applies to that

Considering anything that transpiled to ES5 would have to use var anyway, I'm curious why this was done in the source itself and not as a plugin/build step.

The Bojack example shows that it's not just reduced bandwidth; in some cases you can get higher quality with their AV1 encodes. Additionally if you are thinking of average bitrate, that's ignoring variable bitrates (and the extens

I use this same approach to explain indexes to database novices; it usually helps a lot, especially with how the leaf nodes / included indexes work as well (using that info instead of or in addition to rowid/primary key as the las

Yeah DirectX ended up being a giant headache but there were times in its history where it was the easiest api to use and very high performance. DirectX came about because the alternatives at the time were, frankly, awful.

It's actually really neat. Normally a lambda would just be a function but if it gets cast to an Expression then you get the AST at runtime. Entity Framework analyzes these at runtime to generate the SQL and logic/mapping etc. You

This is unrelated to the JavaScript challenge this post is about, and a very specific technology for video streaming. SABR means "server-side adaptive bitrate" and is a bespoke video streaming protocol that Google is moving toward

I was surprised they went with Deno instead of Node, but since Deno has a readily available single-exe distribution that removes a lot of potential pain. This was pretty much just a matter of time, though; the original interpreter in Python

The lambda is converted into an Expression, basically a syntax tree, which is then analyzed to see what is accessed.

I certainly do appreciate that the file format internals are so well documented here. It really reveals a lot of information about the inner workings of sqlite itself. I highly recommend reading it; I actually saved a copy for a rainy day s
