I was tired of struggling to find again links to software engineering articles and things to follow I found interesting so I gathered them here: gist.github.com/vineus/06c97…
I will try to keep the list short with only links I often send to other engineers

J'ai fait un outil web open source, Flamap, qui utilise les données des satellites (Copernicus EFFIS et NASA FIRMS) pour afficher l'évolution des incendies en Gironde et dans les Landes.
Il est disponible ici ⬇️

In 2019, a month after I had joined Shopify, I sent this note to my team. I called it "say the thing" and I think it has stood the test of time well.

Most expensive gaming console I own. Game selection is pretty limited due to the poor resolution. They went overkill on ethernet connectivity but forgot about other ports, I can't even plug in my gamepad. But it has RGB. 9/10

Last January, I noticed something peculiar in my 2yo’s bedroom that - after a year of obsessive reporting - led me to a profound cosmic revelation about what’s even possible in our universe. A 🧵.

The "Ship of Theseus" article has been edited 1792 times since it was created in July of 2003. At present, 0% of the phrases in the original article (seen below) remain.

French train passenger uses his national health card to make himself a foie gras and baguette sandwich.
What a country.
Pendant ce temps, sur le TER Bourgogne de @SNCFVoyageurs, un voyageur décide de couper son foie gras avec sa carte vitale. Merci la France 🥰

some people who make programming easier
(who am I missing?)
ALT some people who make programming easier: - the loud newbie - the grumpy old timer - the bug chronicler - the documentarian - the “today I learned..." - the “I’ve read the entire internet" - the tool builder - the question answerer

The key realization to being a great software engineering manager is when you see your job is to show leadership everywhere your team needs help to succeed, _except_ in the areas of software engineering itself, where you need to step back and let the engineers lead.

J'ai passé quelques jours à bricoler LegiGPT.
C'est 148k articles avec ChatGPT. Tous les Codes.
L'idée est de savoir s'il possible de discuter avec la loi? Et bien oui, ça marche.

Facebook uses the concept of adaptative LIFO for queues:
- They use FIFO order under normal conditions
- They switch over to LIFO order under high load
The rationale? By keeping FIFO order under high load, users may have already abandoned their request.
Therefore, processing the first-in request means spending resources on a request that is less likely to benefit the user than a request that has just arrived.
It keeps the fairness of FIFO and the practicality of LIFO. Fairly smart 👌
