A new header-only C++20 library leverages native coroutines to provide Go-style channels and waitgroups. Designed for high-performance I/O, coco eliminates callback hell while maintaining zero-cost abstraction.

The ACM's History of Programming Languages (HOPL) conferences offer a rare retrospective on pivotal languages that shaped computing. By examining the languages featured in HOPL II (1993), III (2007), and IV (2021), this analysis reveals enduring trends and seismic shifts in software development priorities.

The Pheix project has achieved its first stable Release to Manufacturing (RTM) version, marking a significant milestone after multiple beta and release candidate iterations. This production-ready release signals maturity for the Raku-based framework following community contributions showcased in Raku Advent calendars and conference presentations since 2020.

Despite rapid hardware advancements, software often crawls due to overlooked inefficiencies in build systems, OS behaviors, and I/O handling. This article dissects surprising slowdowns—from configuration overhead to antivirus interference—and offers actionable insights for developers to reclaim speed. Understanding these pitfalls can transform sluggish workflows into efficient powerhouses.

A developer's grueling battle with a memory bug unveiled debuggers as immersive laboratories for mastering low-level programming. This epiphany led to creating a tool that transforms debugging into structured learning, emphasizing hands-on experimentation over theoretical study for systems concepts on Apple Silicon.

A developer retests top coding LLMs after 12 months to evaluate progress in generating complex Swift/SwiftUI applications. While frontier models show significant improvement in handling audio synthesis and UI integration, fundamental reliability issues and outdated coding patterns persist across the board.
