New Release! Unethical Software Engineering: Dark Patterns by Cesare Pautasso

In the world of unethical software engineering, not every line of code is written with good intentions.

Remembering John Conway's FRACTRAN, a ridiculous, yet surprisingly deep language https://lobste.rs/s/gmrmdj #programming

At some point, type safety is indistinguishable from template metaprogramming.

Just barely fitting a full wi-fi stack on the nRF9151 https://danielmangum.com/posts/nrf9151-wifi-station/ #embedded #embeddedsystems #mcu #programming

asdf to manage development dependencies is kinda weak compared to nix. That's too bad because the promise was appealing

I really hate the term "vibe coding" - particularly because there is an assumption that it's easy to get usable and bug-free code out of an LLM. I use it as a tool to bounce ideas off of and spend most of my time telling it how wrong it is. Occasionally, you get some great results in a much faster way. It's definitely not plug and play - or a substitute for experience.

TeXMe received over 9 million hits in March 2025. That's amazing, but also baffling! Who exactly is loading TeXMe, and from where, that it racks up millions of hits?

By the way, TeXMe is a tiny tool to write self-rendering, distributable LaTeX (MathJax flavour) + Markdown HTML documents. Check it out here: https://github.com/susam/texme

Zentrox has a new Readme and logo: https://github.com/Wervice/zentrox?tab=readme-ov-file
What do you think?

(yes, I know these are only slight adjustments)
