  1. This was a really nice episode by #computerphile. Earlier I knew only about race conditions. Now I know what sequential consistency and how to reason about race conditions.

  6. Great video by #computerphile on how #passkey works. But the necessity of this video is kind of the problem.

    youtube.com/watch?v=xYfiOnufBSk

    My main confusion with passkeys are the different varieties & restrictions placed depending on where you try to log in. Even if you really want to make it work, it's SO frustrating for #Bitwarden to tell me "sorry this website does not support passkeys with Bitwarden". There's probably a good technical reason (different #WebAuthn versions, discoverability, ...) - but as a user, I don't want to have to deal with that, I just want it to work. Passwords just work

  7. PocketID here, passkeys there, OIDC all around

    I’ve been talking a lot about moving all of my services’ authentication over to PocketID, a passkey only IDP

    I think it’s important to understand what we run on our homelab/homeprod, and @computerphile just happened to have a video explaining how the whole thing works

    Greatly laid out and illustrated, as always :)

  10. Very nice, simple and tangible musical analogy (well, it's a bit more than an analogy actually) for serial data transmission in this #computerphile video:

  11. Because it came up again today and according to xkcd.com/1053/ some of you probably don‘t know it yet:

  17. More on #DeepSeek from #Computerphile: youtube.com/watch?v=gY4Z-9QlZ6

    I'm still unsure on how "open source" the DeepSeek model is but I certainly prefer any steps on making these things reproducible rather than hidden behind someone's proprietary #api and server farm. My main takeaway is it is exciting to have stuff that can run on consumer hardware and didn't have to boil a small ocean to train it. #llm #genai

  18. #computerphile does their year end retrospective with a montage of interviewees’ least favorite programming language. No surprise on the front runners.

    #include <stdio.h>
    #include <string.h>

    int main() {
    char bucketList[10][100];
    int count = 0;

    strcpy(bucketList[count++], "Meet Brian Kernighan and Professor Brailsford to talk about C, Unix, and computer history");

    strcpy(bucketList[count++], "Give a talk about Go, PHP, Linux or C");

    ...

    for (int i = 0; i < count; i++) {
    printf("%d. %s\n", i + 1, bucketList[i]);
    }

    return 0;
    }

  21. @ryanc like Tom Scott said - praise the giants before you and thank them for time/zone library - use unixtimestamp and retranslate back as you prefer - here the video that never get old*

  22. Un peu technique et en anglais, mais j'ai bien aimé cette vidéo de #Computerphile qui explore l'hypothèse (papier scientifique à l'appui) selon laquelle l' #IA pourrait bientôt atteindre un plateau en terme de performances --contrairement à l'idée (très complaisante et pas du tout étayée) d'une progression linéaire illimitée, voire exponentielle.

  23. Kernelless kernel programming with #eBPF

    considering its #computerphile I anticipate they will say a thing or two about what eBPF is, and then go tangent off into something entirely related for 20 minutes and call it a day, but lets see
