Perpetual futures (perps) in crypto allow for high-leverage trading, simplifying exchanges' business of blowing out losing traders. However, this comes with risks, including automatic deleveraging (ADL) and potential losses for exchanges and market makers.
The 65XX series CPU has 105 extra opcodes that are not part of the standard 6502 instruction set, which can be used to perform various operations such as combining multiple instructions or accessing registers in unique ways. However, some of these opcodes have complex and variable behavior, and their operation may depend on the specific machine or circumstances, making them difficult to use reliably.
The author emphasizes the importance of defensive programming in Rust, where the compiler is used to enforce rules and prevent bugs from occurring in the first place. By following specific patterns and best practices, developers can write more robust and maintainable code that is less prone to errors and easier to understand.
A company had significant technical debt due to outdated code and lack of unit tests. A project to port Windows-only modules to Linux only addressed symptoms, not the underlying people problems that created the debt.
To ensure exactly-once processing in distributed systems, consumers can use idempotency keys to identify and ignore duplicate messages. The choice of idempotency key depends on the system's requirements, with UUIDs suitable for low-volume systems and monotonically increasing sequences or log-based approaches more suitable for high-volume systems.
The user is asking for the smallest CSS code to print the Fizz Buzz sequence. They provide a four-line CSS solution but mention that it can likely be further minimized.

Our world relies heavily on the sea with 80% of goods traded worldwide moving by ship, and accurate tide charts are a crucial tool for mariners. Scientists like Lord Kelvin developed complex machines to predict tides in the 1870s, building on theories by ancient Greeks, Isaac Newton, and Pierre-Simon Laplace.
Multithreading library provides robust concurrency primitives like thread-pool architecture, Mutexes, Read-Write Locks, and Condition Variables for JavaScript. It abstracts away WebWorkers complexities, allowing developers to write multi-threaded code.
The user created a hobby project called Time Waster Pro, a browser extension that serves random small websites to users, allowing them to upvote or downvote content. The goal is to provide a simple, ad-free experience that promotes discovery of niche content.
The author chose Zig for Lightpanda due to its simplicity and performance, preferring it over C++ and Rust for the project's specific needs. They appreciate Zig's explicit memory management, comptime metaprogramming, and C interoperability, which fit well with the project's requirements.
A massive deal between OpenAI and Samsung and SK Hynix for 40% of the world's DRAM supply has caused a 156% price increase in RAM, leaving the market unprepared and scrambling to secure inventory.

A California judge has tentatively sided with Software Freedom Conservancy in its GPL case against Vizio over SmartCast TVs, pending a final outcome. The case involves Vizio's failure to provide source code for Linux and other software licensed under GPL and LGPL.
Large LLMs are unnecessary for tasks with tightly-scoped inputs, such as SQL autocomplete or structured extraction, which require only a small context window. Smaller models with 15M parameters can be sufficient for specific tasks, making inference more efficient and cost-effective.
Base64 is a binary-to-text scheme converting binary data into safe ASCII strings using a 64-character alphabet with browsers using Uint8Array.toBase64() and Uint8Array.fromBase64() functions. Browsers' base64 performance varies with Chromium-based browsers having faster encoding speeds and Safari having faster decoding speeds.
Usually I’m the one interviewing people about electrification on the Heat Pumped Podcast. Recently, I got to flip roles a bit as a guest on Less Talk, More Action. I was stoked to get the invite - I loved their interview with Panama Bartholomy from Building Decarbonization Coalition, who is ever the optimist reminding us that we ARE making progress electrifying. Joel and Owen peppered me with ...
