I had a plumber over the other day. I was worried that my water service line might be leaking. There was a wet patch in the yard and I noticed that one of my sink’s water pressure seemed to be lower than usual. If the line had a pinhole leak in it, it could easily…

rust is not about memory safety
#article
#rust
|
most of rust discussions nowadays revolve around memory safety, and how it is safer than C / C++ / zig / go / whatever language is being trashed on twitter that day. while yes, that is true - not that the bar for most of these is particularly high - what I think is the main point of the language is always glossed over: correctness.

Rethinking Window Management – Space and Meaning
#article
#unix
|
Window management is one of those areas I’m fascinated with because even after 50 years, nobody’s fully cracked it yet. Ever since the dawn of time we’ve relied on the window metaphor as the primary way of multitasking on the desktop. In this metaphor, each app can spawn one or more rectangular windows, which are stacked by most recently used, and moved or resized manually.

Scattered ChatGPT thoughts ⁑ Wesley’s Notebook
#article
#llm
|
I started trying to write something about ChatGPT and “AI” for my other blog, but it made me to sad and annoyed to be able to write something good, so I’m just going to dump some stuff here. It’s legitimately terrifying to me how many people seem to be comfortable conflating language ability with intelligence or sentience. It’s terrifying to me that so many people don’t seem to notice that they’re doing that, and don’t seem to be able to think critically about it when it’s pointed out to them.

Optimizing SQLite for servers
#article
#sqlite
|
SQLite is often misconceived as a "toy database", only good for mobile applications and embedded systems because it's default configuration is optimized for embedded use cases, so most people trying it will encounter poor performances and the dreaded SQLITE_BUSY error. But what if I told you that by tuning a few knobs, you can configure SQLite to reach ~8,300 writes / s and ~168,000 read / s concurrently, with 0 errors, on a ~40€ / m commodity virtual server with 4 vCPUs (details and code in the appendix).
