The vision I had in my head was of a 3D model slowly spinning, but what would it be a 3D model of? What's recognizable a...

This, however, is the first post in a series. But I only have two ideas for posts, and one seems like a bad...

Just after I published the previous article on bubble sort, I stumbled over another account claiming bubble sort is somehow more robust than better algorithms (emphasis mine):1 I should clarify that I generally agree with the author’s sentiment.

Fri, Aug 30, 2024 Sandboxing and memory safety are generally considered two orthogonal, and therefore complementary, approaches to improving security.

Sorry for the click-baity title, I was trying very hard to get my proposal accepted :) I was told by several members of the audience that the testing story is the most interesting part, which you can easily seek to in the progress bar. The testing part is...
