The best problem-solving writing in software engineering — databases, performance, security, frontend and distributed systems, in one feed.
How can we create products and experiences that don’t cause harm to the planet and to the people who use them? What do we need to consider to make more sustainable design decisions and reduce the carbon footprint of our websites? In this post, we compiled valuable resources that will get you familiar with the principles of sustainable design.
I use the draw.io desktop app to make diagrams for my website. I run it on an actual desktop, like Windows or macOS, but the asset pipeline that converts .drawio files, to .pdf , to .svg , and then to .svg again (but smaller) runs on Linux. So I have a Rust program somewhere that opens headless chromium, and loads just the HTML/JS/CSS part of draw.io I need to render my diagrams, and then use Chro
Developer experience (DevEx) is a key theme when it comes to transforming businesses with GitHub.
In of this series, we introduced the within-unit peeking problem that we call the “peeking problem 2.0”. We showed that moving from single to multiple observations per unit in analyses of experiments introduces new challenges and pitfalls with regards to sequential testing. We discussed the importance of being clear about the distinctions between measurement, metric, estimand, and estimator, and w
At Spotify, we’re constantly improving our data infrastructure, which means we can get feedback on experiments earlier and earlier. To allow for early feedback in a risk-managed manner, we use sequential tests to monitor regressions in the experiments. However, when moving toward smaller and smaller time windows, we’re faced with multiple measurements per unit in our analysis, which is known as lo
Game Bytes is our monthly series taking a peek at the world of gamedev on GitHub—featuring game engine updates, game jam details, open source games, mods, maps, and more. Game on!

We are building an experimental AI co-pilot for product strategy and generative ideation called “Boba”. Along the way, we’ve learned some useful lessons on how to build these kinds of applications, which we’ve formulated in terms of patterns. These patterns allow an application to help the user interact more effectively with a Large-Language Model (LLM), orchestrating prompts to gain better result
GitHub Enterprise Server 3.9 is now generally available. Organizations can now take advantage of more features that enable deeper collaboration, greater observability and faster workflows.
Meta is transferring its IP for Evenstar, a program to accelerate the adoption of open RAN technologies, to the Open Compute Project (OCP). Meta will contribute Evenstar’s radio unit design to OCP, giving the telecom industry its first open, white box radio unit solution. The TIP Open RAN community will leverage the Evenstar radio unit […]
The design process is messy. You might be following a structured approach, but too often, it takes a life of its own. And before you know it, you are designing in chaos, with last-minute changes and missed deadlines. So, what’s the “perfect” design process?
