** 2006-10-31: The default prefix used to be "sqlite_". But then ** Mcafee started using SQLite in their anti-virus product and it ** started putting files with the "sqlite" name in the c:/temp folder. ** This annoyed many windows users. Those users would then do a ** Google search for "sqlite", find the telephone numbers of the ** developers and call to wake them up at night and complain. ** For this reason, the default name prefix is changed to be "sqlite" ** spelled backwards. So the temp files are still identified, but ** anybody smart enough to figure out the code is also likely smart ** enough to know that calling the developer will not help get rid ** of the file. */ #ifndef SQLITE_TEMP_FILE_PREFIX # define SQLITE_TEMP_FILE_PREFIX "etilqs_" #endif

Here is an insane piece of lore inside SQLite's source code

I am researching VACUUM and I was studying their code. In VACUUM, SQLite creates a temp file prefixed with `etilqs_`

Here is why:

Austin Systems Programming A meetup for curious low-level engineers in Austin, TX. We meet in-person monthly.

Austin Systems is meeting again on Wednesday night! See austinsystems.org for details. We're doing lightning talks, so prepare to speak or listen to a bunch of interesting 10 minute talks!

Welp, I got laid off. RIP futurewei OSS rust team.

If you know anyone hiring systems engineers lmk.

Did you happen to write about the 2d constraint solver (from last year’s talk) somewhere? I would love to time travel.

All day my brains been screaming at me that it wants bread covered in olive oil

I just released my video about the engine (and game) I've been working on.

The engine is based on dynamic SDFs, and the video describes how it works and what it makes possible.

Link in the reply!

This is my first YouTube video and it took forever - please repost!

It's always great to chat with other folks who deal with all the ways that atoms and bits interact. @sunshowers.io ​and @oxide.computer have thought longer and harder about these problems than most, here they are in conversation with our infrastructure lead, Justin Moore.

Just read the Tom Wojcik piece, and went down the references rabbithole.
I'd love to hear what you find that works.
It's an incredibly important time to think about the shift deeply, and I'm glad that so many of folks out there are doing just that.

Having structure has been helpful, been spending more time writing my thoughts in RFDs.
Outside of work, I've scheduled deliberate practice hours. Working on side-projects that I care about without letting Claude take the wheel, just to force myself to think harder. And some CodeCrafters exercises.

This was an excellent read.
Sanderson's talk was poignant, so much so that I started writing down my own thoughts about how I feel about the current trajectory of software.
Since Opus 4.5 I've found myself get lazier, eyes glaze over as the diffs roll by. "looks about right", accept ↵

it's not you I promise, it's just how bsky compression handles videos for now. hopefully they'll enable 60 fps videos eventually. the best way to add videos currently is via vimeo at the moment

I think the bsky video downsampling is making the motion blur less apparent

this was so seamless OMG!
