The Junk Drawer

Everything in this section has so far resisted categorization.

Maybe we'll find a place for it later.

Stuff to Tinker With

I'd like to look further into some of these items.

• Idris 2 and its github repo
• JavaScript murmur3 hashing at deno.land, including links to some other vanilla JS impls.
• RedoxOS is a Unix-like Operating System written in Rust, aiming to bring the innovations of Rust to a modern microkernel and full set of applications.
• Dev Fonts preview page
• Sparkfun: How to Use a Multimeter

Articles

• Jason Williams: A possible new backend for rust, which provides faster compile times. How buggy would it be to switch back and forth between Cranelift for dev and LLVM for release?
• Adi Polak: Bite-sized intro to Spark
• João H. Capucho: A nice introduction to Kafka
• Jess Frazelle: Power to the People, an analysis of power usage in data centers.

Papers

• On the Measure of Intelligence.
