The Ethics of Web Performance

Tim Kadlec

One question I’ve seen posed a few times in the past several months is whether performance really is a moral or ethical concern, or if that’s all heavy-handed exaggeration. It’s a fair question, I suppose. Advocates of any technique or technology can be a bit heavy-handed when it suits them if they’re not being careful–myself included.

Implementing U2F Authentication With Hardware Keys Using Node.js and Vue.js

The Polyglot Developer

Not too long ago I had written a tutorial titled, U2F Authentication with a YubiKey Using Node.js and jQuery , which demonstrated how to use hardware keys as a means of universal two-factor (U2F) authentication. However, I had left some things to be desired in that previous post. For example, the previous tutorial did not use proper session management with Express.js and it used jQuery, which is neat, but by no means is as popular as some of the other web frameworks that currently exist.

Create Custom Shortcodes To Embed Content In Hugo Posts And Pages

The Polyglot Developer

I’ve mentioned this numerous times before, but The Polyglot Developer is powered by Hugo which is a static site generator that takes Markdown and converts it to HTML. While Markdown is easy to use and can accomplish quite a bit, the syntax doesn’t accomplish everything that you’d hope to accomplish when it comes to a website. For example audio and video aren’t a thing in Markdown while it is in HTML.

Agile: Optimise for velocity over predictability

Abhishek Tiwari

When it comes to agile estimation, quite often agile teams spend a big chunk of their time in heavyweight processes like detailed story point estimation to improve the predictability or accuracy of their estimates. In other words, agile teams invest more time in estimation to reduce that variance (i.e. time estimated vs. time taken) which otherwise can be used to create features and add business value.

Can AI Help Build Software?

Professor Beekums

I’m pretty skeptical of AI replacing humans anytime soon, but there is no denying that AI is capable of things that humans aren’t. Computers are unmatched in their ability to run brute force calculations. Theoretically, a human could perform Google’s PageRank algorithm. Yet, it would take a human millions of times more time than a computer to do so and the monotony would result in human error.
