VernamVeil: A Fresh Take on Function-Based Encryption

I've open-sourced VernamVeil, an experimental cipher written in pure Python, designed for developers curious about cryptography’s inner workings. It’s only about 200 lines of Python code with no external dependencies other than standard Python libraries. VernamVeil was built as a learning exercise by someone outside the cryptography field. If you happen to be a cryptography expert, I would deeply appreciate any...

That's How We've Always Done Things Around Here

We do this in software way more than we think: We inherit a process or a rule and keep following it, without questioning why it exists in the first place. It’s like that old story: Someone cuts off the turkey tail before cooking, just because that's how their grandma did it. (spoiler alert, grandma’s pan was just too small.) Some examples of "turkey tails" I've seen: Following tedious dev processes nobody understands...

I love Raylib CS!

Huge respect to the people behind the C# port of Raylib! I have been using the original C version since day one but lately I have been playing around with this port just for fun. Completely out of nostalgia I ended up recreating one of those good old Flash β€œelement” sandbox games too with it nothing really fancy just a little side project. Anyway the thing is that port is really worth checking out like if you work with...

Visualization of runtime execution with the code β€” does it help or clutter?

While building my JS framework TargetJS, I added a feature that shows runtime execution alongside all the code examples such as display which methods are running and how variables are transitioning to their target values: https://targetjs.io/docs https://targetjs.io/docs/declarative.html I’m wondering: Does this make the framework more engaging to explore, or does it add visual clutter? As they say, one picture is...

Bitbucket code search that doesn't suck

Lots of devs we've talked to mentioned that they hate Bitbucket's built-in code search: - No support for regex, or filtering by project/repos - Clunk legacy UI, no way to navigate within results easily My friend and I have been spoiled by amazing code searching tooling at Google and Microsoft. We wanted to bring this code search experience to everyone, so we built Sourcebot. Sourcebot is an open source code search tool...

SQL Server Index Optimization Strategies: Best Practices with Ola Hallengren’s Scripts

Index maintenance is a critical component of database administration as it helps ensure the ongoing efficiency and performance of a Structured Query Language (SQL) Server environment. Over time, as data is added, updated, and deleted, index fragmentation can occur, where the logical and physical ordering of index pages becomes misaligned. This fragmentation can lead to increased disk I/O, decreased query performance,...

I had actually never needed to implement any of them, as my user base was usually modest. This...
