Very interesting blog. NASCAR picked and uses NATS to transmit the large amount of real-time telemetry data generated by the new NextGen cars both directly at the track to the teams and broadcasters, and over to the cloud.

★ Just published a new episode of Cup o' Go: 📚 So many Go books, so little time! Plus upcoming security releases, GopherCon ⚡ lightning talks, and interview with Donia Chaiehloudj. Listen: share.transistor.fm/s/2c894a80

I just bumped into jless.io and I’m loving it! It’s the JSON and YAML previewer which does everything I ever wanted from one and it’s written in Rust. You can even do `pbpaste | jless`. Vim fans are going to really like this one. Nice work CodeIsTheEnd!

I couldn't get my shit together to finish this for last week's #CodePenChallenge , but at least here it is now.

Small non-intersecting spheres randomly distributed on the surface of a big sphere.

With lighting, shadows, reflection and possibility of changing theme. All pure CSS!

Hey Weaveworks not sure what phone number database you bought, but cold calling people out of the blue to sell them Kubernetes stuff is seriously not cool. Cut it out!

Terry Tao and I spoke over coffee for like two hours yesterday, in part about diversity in how people think about math. We both agreed that people who hit these walls early mostly don't learn the way of thinking about math that works for them. It's an educational failure

Srsly, @ibm?

Here it is: NASA Webb Telescope’s one-year anniversary image. Called Rho Ophiuchi, this area shows about 50 young stars in a cocoon of gas and dust. At 390 light-years away, it's the closest star-forming region to Earth: go.nasa.gov/3rqX8Tl

Webb continues to #UnfoldTheUniverse .

It’s been *forever* since my last Physics Twitter Thread 😳.

But today I ran into a beautiful artistic physics demo in my hometown that inspired me to write a few lines.

I’m sure you’ve all seen these massive floating granite balls. How do they work?

One practice I've followed consistently for most of my career as a software engineer is 'never submit the first draft'. I take whatever time I need to write code, re-read it a few times over, refine until the intention is clear and I can explain it well...

Zed A. Shaw, Writer The root of this issue is this long standing Windows-only request: github.com/BurntSushi/rip…

Thanks for giving ripgrep a try. Now that you're a former user, I'll certainly enjoy you not shitting on my work now.

Are you struggling to fill a post-doc position in #bioinformatics ? We are like that post-doc you never had! We do analysis, we implement pipelines, we mentor your trainees to become better bioinformatics scientists.

#academicresearch #academiclife #research

👨‍🔬 Did you hire a bioinformatician, but can't mentor and help them solve the problems?

👩‍💻 Are you the only bioinfo in-🏠and you have no one to ask for advice?

🚀 We provide #bioinformatics mentorship, with 1:1s, help with analysis, methods and interpretation of the results.

Zed A. Shaw, Writer Benthos looks really cool. Had to do all this stuff ad-hoc at Black Brane—handling streaming correctly is fundamental to distributed cloud apps and services, and I needed real-time high fidelity bit-streaming—and now there’s a whole YAML-configurable library for it! Amazing.

Stumbled onto this Benthos project which seems to be a kind of routing swiss army knife:

benthos.dev/cookbooks/cust…

It's able to route from various APIs, data sources, and formats while doing transformations on the data. Config is really simple YAML.
