I work at a public library. People who want to use AI seem to have no trouble doing so. People who don't want to use AI have a harder time. I crowdsourced and then finalized this document "How to disable or avoid intrusive AI" and then gave it a short URL: notoai.org Please pass along if it's useful
⚠️ Promise.all() makes your code sensitive to destructuring order 🆕 Promise.allKeyed() is IMHO a better alternative in many cases I've been using my "combine-promise" lib for that, and can finally deprecate it soon
Rob Palmer@robpalmer.bsky.social · last wk.ECMAScript excitement 😉 Congrats to my coworker @ashley-c.bsky.social at TechAtBloomberg on advancing Await Dictionary to Stage 3 at TC39 🎉 Promise.all returns positional results as an array. Promise.allKeyed allows named results inside an object 👍 github.com/tc39/proposa...
i want to do a little ✨ ama about atproto ✨ in this thread. no question is too simple if you’ve been curious about atproto but don’t know much (anything?) about it, ask any question and i’ll try to explain it in my own words. (+ would love to hear from friends who aren’t very active on bsky)

🎉 Announcing Calepin 🎉 A new tool to create computational notebooks and static websites, built on Typst. Write code and prose directly in your .typ files, then publish them as documents or as a full website. vincentarelbundock.github.io/calepin/ 1/6 🧵 #Rstats #Pydata #Typst
🤯️ Programmers are **cooked**: A cracked researcher called Grace Hopper release a report on 🤖️ automatic programming called ✨️flow-matic✨️, some quotes below 👇️
The new @code release supports BYOK without a GitHub sign-in, making it easier to use your own language models or run workflows using local models like Ollama. Check out what’s new:

Happy Pythagore day 24/7/25. (works in the US too). The next will be 24/10/26 and that's it for this century.
MEDIA RELEASE: Israel’s ongoing attacks on starving Gazans “As Jews, we cannot watch Palestinians starved, concentrated into zones to be shot with impunity, and not remember our own history. The Australian government must urgently act.”
A nanoneedle patch enables painless, non-invasive collection of molecular data from tissues, offering a potential alternative to traditional biopsies for real-time disease monitoring and diagnosis.
Nanoneedle patch offers painless alternative to traditional cancer biopsies
A patch containing tens of millions of microscopic nanoneedles could soon replace traditional biopsies, scientists have found.

Our book is about building a compiler for a toy, compile-to-Wasm language. At some point, we starting wondering…what's the smallest possible WebAssembly compiler? Could you make one that fits in tweet? 🤔 The answer is yes! wasmgroundup.com/blog/wasm-c...
A WebAssembly compiler that fits in a tweet
Starting with a 192-byte one-liner that implements a Reverse Polish Notation arithmetic compiler, we'll work backward to transform it into readable JavaScript by removing one code golf trick at a time

I couldn't find any good games for my password manager. So I made one. 1Crossword connects to your 1Password vault and generates a crossword entirely out of your passwords! The crosswords are fun, simple, and great for sharing on social media when you finish. Enjoy!
What does it mean for something to be Turing complete? I answer this question, and more, through a series of fully interactive Turing machine simulations! Play, pause, step forwards and backwards, and even write your own Turing machine programs in my latest blog post. samwho.dev/turing-machi...
a fun read "Can a biologist fix a radio?" a great piece on how research is made. The first 3 paragraphs are priceless ! www.cell.com/cancer-cell/...
Can a biologist fix a radio?—Or, what I learned while studying apoptosis
As a freshly minted Assistant Professor, I feared that everything in my field would be discovered before I even had a chance to set up my laboratory. Indeed, the field of apoptosis, which I had recently joined, was developing at a mind-boggling speed. Components of the previously mysterious process were being discovered almost weekly, frequent scientific meetings had little overlap in their contents, and it seemed that every issue of Cell, Nature, or Science had to have at least one paper on apoptosis. My fear led me to seek advice from David Papermaster (currently at the University of Connecticut), who I knew to be a person with pronounced common sense and extensive experience. David listened to my outpouring of primal fear and explained why I should not worry.

When I first heard about quantum error correction I thought it was the most boring subject in the world. It turns out to be one of the most interesting subjects in the world. My judgment isn’t always that great. ⚛️
John Preskill@preskill.bsky.social · 2y agoCongratulations to all who contributed to the advances in quantum error correction recognized by the Physics World Breakthrough of the Year. physicsworld.com/a/two-advanc...
THIS IS HUGE! Researchers at TAU and the University of Lisbon have developed a groundbreaking nano-vaccine against COVID-19, delivered via nasal spray WITHOUT requiring cold storage. Preclincial studies show the vaccine was effective against ALL major SARS-CoV-2 variants. Let’s talk about that! 🧪🧵⬇️
Poor man's audit log for Postgres tables. Pure SQL, no Elixir required. Time-to-shelf: 1 minute. Run the final part for each table you want to audit. Use Postico as the UI. gist.github.com/mxgrn/9900c2...
Claimed solution of the Moving Sofa Problem (rather, claiming proof that the 1992 conjectured solution is correct). This is not the most important math problem, but it is a Math Problem Non-Mathematicians Can Understand. arxiv.org/abs/2411.19826
can I code fast? no. but can I code well? also no. but does my code work? alas, no
I'm a 3 time conference organizer and I'm interested in giving my attendees the best experience possible. With talks it's about inspiring, motivating, educating, and entertaining. Who wouldn't want to hear how @tldraw.com works from an engineer who works on it?
