The VTech Socratic method
We’ve had a lot of fun with VTech’s computers in the past on this blog. Usually, they’re relatively spartan computers with limited functionality, but they did make something very interesting in the late 80s. The Socrates is their hybrid video game console/computer design from 1988, and today we’ll start tearing into it. ↫ Leaded Solder web log Now we’re in for the good stuff. A weird educational computer/game console/toy thing from the late ’80s, by VTech. I have a massive soft s … ⌘ Read more
Torvalds states the obvious: file systems should be case-sensitive
Apparently, the Bcachefs people are having problems with case-folding, and Linus Torvalds himself is not happy about it. Torvalds holds the only right opinion in this matter, which is that filesystems should obviously be case-sensitive. Case-insensitive names are horribly wrong, and you shouldn’t have done them at all. The problem wasn’t the lack of testing, the problem was implementing it in the fir … ⌘ Read more

Hlas študentov znie cez hranice
Už pol roka trvajúce protesty v Srbsku, ktoré vedú najmä študenti a stredoškoláci, sú výnimočným prejavom ich odhodlanosti. V čase, keď je spoločnosť paralyzovaná apatiou, strachom či cynizmom, sa mladí ľudia rozhodli neklesnúť na duchu. Ich protest nie je len reakciou na konkrétnu udalosť či nespravodlivosť – je to volanie po systémovej zmene. Volanie po dôstojnosti, pravde a spravodlivosti. Po skupine približne osemdesiatich študentov, ktorí nedávno n … ⌘ Read more

Another war story: the hardest bug I ever debugged
I recently stumbled on Jacob Voytko’s Google Docs bug story and it reminded me of the weirdest bug I ever chased.
It started with a user reporting their webcam was rotated by 90° — but only sometimes. This turned into a wild hunt across browsers, OS quirks, WebRTC, and even HTTP redirects.
