В одно окно смотрели двое.
Один увидел дождь и грязь,
Другой — листвы зеленой вязь,
Весну и небо голубое.
В одно окно смотрели двое.

Some good and bad choices here. Worth a look.
WebKit browser with proper extensions. Best of both worlds! Gotta try when I get back to my MacBook.
Spend time on things that are enjoyable or important, ideally both
BlueMap is a program that reads your Minecraft world files and generates not only a map, but also 3D-models of the whole surface.
With the web-app you then can look at those in your browser and basically view the world as if you were ingame!
Or just look at it from far away to get an overview.
Why do this, you might ask? Well the above board reason is that it allows Microsoft to tune and modify the system call layer at will, improving performance and adding features without being forced to provide backwards compatibility application binary interfaces (or "ABI's" for short). The more nefarious reasoning is that it allows Microsoft applications to cheat, and call directly into the undocumented Win32 subsystem system call interface to provide services that competing applications cannot. Several Microsoft applications were subsequently discovered to be doing just that of course.
This article is part of the series Understanding ActivityPub, which takes a look at the ActivityPub protocol through the lens of real-world examples. The protocol exchanges are taken from ActivityPub.Academy, a modified Mastodon instance that shows ActivityPub messages in real time (see the announcement post).
Apart from that I rely very much on how browsers present my site, from the default font and size to the paragraph distance and the emoji set used. HTML was actually made to be responsive. It's a reflowing format that theoretically works on any screen size. But of course that won't be the case when there's things like sidebars or banners and stuff. And there pretty much always is.
Ken describes how he injected a virus into a compiler. Not only did his compiler know it was compiling the login function and inject a backdoor, but it also knew when it was compiling itself and injected the backdoor generator into the compiler it was creating. The source code for the compiler thereafter contains no evidence of either virus.
Unit tests are not a panacea. End-to-end tests are often much more useful. Some things cannot be tested at all. Think before testing.
UPD 2025. The author migrated to some weird proprietary blogging platform and broke the link. Why?
И, кстати, самое интересное начинается, когда возникает вопрос о том, что понимать под "эффективностью"? Что лучше: иметь сто рук или уметь хорошо пользоваться только двумя? Вопрос далеко не праздный, поскольку количественное увеличение разрядности ещё не означает автоматическое увеличение производительности. Например, чем плотнее код, тем лучше он кэшируется и тем быстрее работает. Поэтому, например, ARM имеет thumb mode. И поэтому же уже упомянутые мной компиляторы удалось вместить в 512 байт, а попробуйте сделать то же с 64-битным кодом.
