Generally I'm a fan of and use Magnet; but this looks cool and is worth remembering if I ever want to try something else out.

Terminal Emulators Battle Royale – Unicode Edition!
Terminal Emulators Battle Royale – Unicode Edition!

It turns out that Unicode support in Terminals is a lot more difficult than it first appears. A quick overview of special support for Unicode characters in Terminals:

  • "Wide" or "Fullwidth" characters, particularly for East Asian languages and emojis, are codepoints that occupy two cells in a terminal instead of one.
  • "Zero" width combining characters used in languages such as Arabic, Hebrew, or Hindi do not occupy any cells themselves; instead, they modify the previous character.
  • "Zero Width Joiner" (ZWJ U+200D) reduces and combines many codepoints into a single emoji. This is similar to combining, but encoded in a completely different way.
  • "Variation Selector-16" (VS-16 U+FE0F) is a special character that, for specific "Narrow" emojis consuming one cell, causes them to become "Wide", consuming two cells.

Mozilla 2023 Annual Report: CEO pay skyrockets, while Firefox Marketshare nosedives
Mozilla 2023 Annual Report: CEO pay skyrockets, while Firefox Marketshare nosedives

The Mozilla Foundation has released their latest annual report -- covering the time up through December of 2022 (Mozilla's reporting always lags by one year) -- and something peculiar leaps out of the data:

  • The compensation of the Mozilla CEO has skyrocketed (by millions)
  • While the Mozilla revenue drops
  • And the Firefox Marketshare takes a nosedive
  • While, at first, this seems ridiculously lopsided... perhaps it actually makes sense.

How We Executed A Critical Supply Chain Attack On Pytorch
How We Executed A Critical Supply Chain Attack On Pytorch

"Four months ago, Adnan Khan and I exploited a critical CI/CD vulnerability in PyTorch, one of the world’s leading ML platforms. Used by titans like Google, Meta, Boeing, and Lockheed Martin, PyTorch is a major target for hackers and nation-states alike.

Thankfully, we exploited this vulnerability before the bad guys.

Here is how we did it."

While I think the idea of metric time is pretty bad, I think this is a really nice site that illustrates the idea.
