I was tired of struggling to find again links to software engineering articles and things to follow I found interesting so I gathered them here: gist.github.com/vineus/06c97… I will try to keep the list short with only links I often send to other engineers

J'ai fait un outil web open source, Flamap, qui utilise les données des satellites (Copernicus EFFIS et NASA FIRMS) pour afficher l'évolution des incendies en Gironde et dans les Landes. Il est disponible ici ⬇️ flamap.fr/?carte

In 2019, a month after I had joined Shopify, I sent this note to my team. I called it "say the thing" and I think it has stood the test of time well.

J'ai passé quelques jours à bricoler LegiGPT. C'est 148k articles avec ChatGPT. Tous les Codes. L'idée est de savoir s'il possible de discuter avec la loi? Et bien oui, ça marche. legigpt.fr

Facebook uses the concept of adaptative LIFO for queues: - They use FIFO order under normal conditions - They switch over to LIFO order under high load The rationale?

It keeps the fairness of FIFO and the practicality of LIFO. Fairly smart 👌 dl.acm.org/doi/pdf/10.1145/2…
