https://cstack.github.io/db_tutorial/ I found this blog to be quite interesting because it deals with something I don't really spend time thinking about: the internals of a database engine. It's fascinating t

You do have a point, adding exceptions to C++ does impact the language in many ways. They must be used responsibly: being able to jump to a completely different point of the program at any time is dangerous. However, exceptions do simplify

An interesting point raised by this paper is that when a program requires pervasive modifications (e.g. checking the error code returned by C functions), adding a new concept to the language (e.g. C++ exceptions) can systematically make the

I'm sure you've all heard Haskell programmers say that if their code compiles, you can be sure the program is correct. I'd found that hard to believe until I tried building something in Haskell: the type system lets you descr

Open/Closed would still conceptually act as properties, but by promoting them to types you enforce the property at compile time rather than runtime. Note that they are not used on their own, but to describe a `Connection`. This lets yo

Sure, you could likely compile a Haskell program to an embedded architecture, but Haskell is a garbage collected language. Allocating memory takes a long, nondeterministic amount of time on a microcontroller. And microcontroller are often u

I've been writing a lot of Haskell recently. I had to switch to embedded C and the difference between the two was striking. The C program I was editing compiled, but failed to do anything useful. To fix that, I had to reorder the state

What I like about the book is that it presents many ways of incorporating deep work into your life: from long, focused sabbaticals (e.g. writers living and working in a cabin to complete important work) to frequently dedicating a small par

This article makes me think about the disdain some people might have against the 'liberal elite', and according to the article political correctness does seem to be a trait of that particular class. I think the key is to understan
