One of my favourite lines is "In theory, there is no difference between theory and praxis. In praxis, there is". Prepare for a sporadically updated series of Theory & Praxis tweets

One day you wake up and Chrissie Hynde is singing “in the middle of the road” and suddenly the song is about you

Same here. But… I think our generation has the advantage of having learned on simpler as in „constrained by technology“ systems which over the years implicitly leads to the bottom up composition Chad mentions in the thread. New people just see complexity at first contact
After almost 30 years developing software, I'm coming to a realization that's probably been way too long coming: when I encounter something new that seems way too complicated to understand, it's probably not really that deep.

Aaron Patterson: “I think we should reconsider the common wisdom that “rewriting our Ruby in C” is the ideal path to performance optimization, and take a serious look at “rewriting our C in Ruby” instead.” https://t.co/NzY0VmCWzX

YJIT’s ability to improve performance by adapting to run-time behavior can increase the speed of our code in a way that dropping down to C can’t. As such, I think we should reconsider the common...

It's now possible to block ChatGPT's crawler on any website you control. Added the block: it's a no-brainer. Why? ChatGPT cites no sources. It's a one-way relationship where OpenAI takes what is published on the internet, and then doesn't give a single reference or link back.

Lest we forget #Pylos
Last week, a boat carrying migrants and asylum seekers sank off the coast of Greece. Over 500 are presumed dead. Neither @Frontex nor the @HCoastGuard intervened in a safe and timely way, despite the boat being obviously unseaworthy, overcrowded and in distress.

It wasn't until I'd *taught* algorithms a few times that I finally understood why sorting is in the CS curriculum. Unfortunately, most curricula don't explain this! It is NOT because sorting is an important algorithm to learn to implement...
As a 41 year-old software developer do you know how many times I've had to manually implement QuickSort? Zero. Maybe we should test for more useful skills like taking a slow SQL query and optimizing it.

Κυβερνοεπίθεση από χάκερς στη Τράπεζα Θεμάτων και όλοι μιλούν για DDOS επίθεση. Ήταν DDOS ή οφείλεται σε ελλιπή μέτρα ασφάλειας;

Τις τελευταίες 48 ώρες, οι "κυβερνοεπιθέσεις" σε ελληνικούς "στόχους". Στα βαθιά μεσάνυχτα κάτι πήγε να γίνει... Αυτά από cloudflare, γιατί netscout και akamai βασικά δίνουν ένα στρογγυλό κουλούρι.

Το σημαντικό ερώτημα ειναι ένα: Εαν η επίθεση ήταν high traffic volume DDoS (μιλάνε για 200.000ευρώ + εκατομύρια bots) δεν θα είχε αποτυπωθεί στις σχετικές υπηρεσίες καταγραφής DDoS επιθέσεων (CloudflareRadar) ή εστω στα διαγράμματα του GRNET? #τραπεζα_θεματων
