A developer experience and quality control measure I take on programs I’m building, even small ones, is always to write at least one test.
I’m pretty excited about the start of the semester. This semester is going to be crazy busy. Not only am I teaching five classes for the first five weeks of the semester, but I have a ton of little (and not so little) projects coming at me from conference papers (and travel), to Digital Press books, to grants, and...
By Ayeza Areej On 28 February 2026, Iran launched Operation True Promise-4, a wave of ballistic missiles and drones into Israeli airspace. The strikes were launched in response to US and Israeli attacks on Iranian territory and saturated some of the world’s most heavily defended airspace, making successful...
Chases are all over the place in spy movies, but the second car chase in Ronin is one of the best on film. It’s a BMW and a Peugeot through the streets of Paris. It’s very realistic (except maybe for a weird amount of sparks). There’s no musical soundtrack for most of it, just more than seven full minutes screaming...

While the original circa 2004 Benelli M2 was a linear development of the M1/Super 90 line of semi-automatic shotguns, which were first introduced in 1986, the line has always used the Inertia style recoil-operation system as its heart. There have been few complaints about the classic Benelli M2 Tactical that we have...

Creating a subset of Go that translates to C (which I named Solod) was never my end goal. I liked writing C code with Go, but without the standard library it felt pretty limited. So the next logical step was to port Go's stdlib. At some point I decided to make as many packages as possible freestanding — independent...
