Prior art on systems that attempt to keep documentation up to date, or flag potential stale docs? | Lobsters

Occasionally when working on underdocumented legacy code, I have daydreamed about a system that makes it hard for docs (readmes, code comments, anything) to get stale. The idea being that teams might write more down if we knew it would stay useful. I propose that commits that change some code should not get accepted unless the author also either updates any documentation that describes...

I used to work at a company that underwent a Return to Office (RTO) transition. For context, I hadn’t worked in a true office setting since long before the pandemic, and I was unprepared for how much I would come to despise being back in the office. The phsycal presence for me wasn’t just a shift in environment - it...

While SQLite provides a certain number of date functions, I wanted something more. So I've created sqlean-time — a high-precision date/time extension with a structured API and a rich set of functions.Note. Adding extensions to SQLite is a breeze. Download a file, run one database command — and you are good to go.Con...

Criticizing software is easy, yet the C++ and C standard libraries have withstood the test of time admirably. Nevertheless, they are not perfect. Especially the <string>, <string_view>, and <string.h> headers. The first two alone bring in over 20,000 lines of code, slowing the compilation of every translation unit b...

I’ve been writing Go pretty casually for years – the backends for all of my playgrounds (nginx, dns, memory, more DNS) are written in Go, but many of those projects are just a few hundred lines and I don’t come back to those codebases much. I thought I more or less understood the basics of the language, but this wee...

Code discussions contain relevant information. Isn’t it a shame that we keep these in the centralized GitHub/GitLab servers, far away from our decentralized Git code? As soon as we move provider, we’ll lose all old discussions! And how do you ever find the pull requests back from 5 years ago? Symfony has implemented...

I’ve been interested in the idea of Rust for a couple years now. Type safe, memory safe, and an emphasis on correctness. What’s not to love? The percentage of errors I encounter while working on Apollo (a Python app) that could have been caught by the Rust compiler is quite high (I won’t claim 100%, but pretty close...
