In computer science, approximate string matching is the technique of finding strings that match a pattern approximately. The problem of approximate string matching is typically divided into two sub-problems: finding approximate substring matches inside a given string and finding dictionary strings that match the pattern approximately.

Like the relationships that we build within them, our platforms should yield satisfaction precisely because they’re non-trivial; they demand effort, which is another way of saying they require engagement with the world.

What Urbit should feel like to an everyday user

Urbit is a decentralized personal server platform based on functional programming in a peer-to-peer network. The Urbit platform was created by neoreactionary political blogger Curtis Yarvin. The first code release was in 2010. The Urbit network was launched in 2013. The first user version was launched in April 2020.

An unexpected journey for AT&T with it's own low power processor

Telecoms giant AT&T once had giant computing ambitions. Its Bell Labs research arm invented the transistor and developed the C programming language and the Unix operating system. As the owner o…

From their first introduction in 2005, the debate between adopting a microservices architecture, a monolithic service architecture, or a hybrid between the two, has become one of the least-reversible decisions that most engineering organizations make. Even migrating to a different database technology is generally a less expensive change than moving from monolith to microservices or from microservices to monolith. The industry has in many ways gone full circle on that debate, from most hyperscalers in the 2010s partaking in a multi-year monolith to microservices migration, to Kelsey Hightower’s iconic tweet on the perils of distributed monoliths:

In this article we look at how sound is represented digitally. We also look at some simple code to generate audio in javascript.

OAuth 2.1 specification has been planned. Let's explore the key differences between OAuth 2.0 and OAuth 2.1 and how they were adopted in Logto.

Alonzo Church was an American mathematician, computer scientist, logician, and philosopher who made major contributions to mathematical logic and the foundations of theoretical computer science. He is best known for the lambda calculus, the Church–Turing thesis, proving the unsolvability of the Entscheidungsproblem, the Frege–Church ontology, and the Church–Rosser theorem. Alongside his doctoral student Alan Turing, Church is considered one of the founders of computer science.

In mathematics and computer science, the Entscheidungsproblem (German for 'decision problem'; .mw-parser-output .IPA-label-small{font-size:85%}.mw-parser-output .references .IPA-label-small,.mw-parser-output .infobox .IPA-label-small,.mw-parser-output .navbox .IPA-label-small{font-size:100%}pronounced [ɛntˈʃaɪ̯dʊŋspʁoˌbleːm]) is a challenge posed by David Hilbert and Wilhelm Ackermann in 1928.[1] It asks for an algorithm that considers an inputted statement and answers "yes" or "no" according to whether it is universally valid, i.e., valid in every structure.

A Turing machine is a mathematical model of computation describing an abstract machine that manipulates symbols on a strip of tape according to a table of rules. Despite the model's simplicity, it is capable of implementing any computer algorithm.

I want to provide a smooth experience to my site visitors, so I work on accessibility and ensure it works without JavaScript enabled. I care about page load time because some pages contain large illustrations, so I minify my HTML. But one thing makes turning my blog light as a feather a pain in the ass.

Erlang as a real-time platform for multitasking uses Preemptive Scheduling. The responsibility of an Erlang scheduler is selecting a process and executing based on priority, time slice or reduction bases. Erlang processes are scheduled on a reduction count basis. One reduction is roughly equivalent to a function call.

Have you ever found yourself tangled in the complexity of building a processing pipeline, wrestling with how to correctly design a pipeline…

How does Linux move from an awake machine to a hibernating one? How does it then manage to restore all state? These questions led me to read way too much C in trying to figure out how this particular hardware/software boundary is navigated.
