Great post on devirtualisation for C++ in GCC, with some interesting comments on warning usability: http://t.co/PL6ksVOGXS
Interesting talk exploring bottom-up vs greedy inlining in LLVM: http://t.co/KwG0bhkZP5 (GCC uses greedy inlining to great effect)
cider-debug is a very nice debugger for clojure, but it actually *improves* on edebug by including minibuffer hints! http://t.co/Vb4cS4Xm67
Yet more nifty optimisations landing in LLVM: indirect call promotion when call profiles are available http://t.co/osw1rvWD8w
Extraordinary tale of reverse engineering, where the authors even create their own language to avoid plagiarism! http://t.co/8zrqF1QwwX
Pharo 4.0 is out! http://t.co/wiR188mJAI Pharo is extraordinary and underappreciated in equal measure.
Delighted to see that jQuery 3.0 will have standards-compliant Promises: https://github.com/jquery/jquery/pull/1996
Extending Emacs Lisp with Erlang's concurrent programming mode: paper: http://t.co/1vfqB4z2hT code: https://github.com/massemanet/distel Cool!
"I consider it hideous how well afl-fuzz works [...] essentially sed-level magic on compiler-generated assembly" http://t.co/7T9KxFbNQP :)
CSON is an interesting alternative to JSON, using coffeescript. Comments! https://github.com/bevry/cson (especially if you're already using cs)
It's remarkable that the JS output by emscripten has comparable file size to native code! http://t.co/hzGLFOxJjb

No Sane Compiler Would Optimize Atomics https://github.com/jfbastien/papers/blob/master/source/N4455.rst [cue evil laugh]
LLVM's libfuzzer is catching both interesting bugs and issues like exponential performance! Nifty. http://t.co/OYJyVrBek2
The React team is moving from Gulp to Broccoli: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1QZxArgMwidgCrAbuSikcB2iBxkffH6w0YB0C1qCsuH0/preview?pli=1&sle=true -- the JS ecosystem moves so fast! (I'm still on Grunt.)
Devops Reactions beautifully summarising yak shaving: http://t.co/a0d6wwYB7o
I ported a project today from npm+bower to entirely npm. It works really well! Bower fetches from VCS, but npm has 'proper' file uploads.
I'm biting the bullet and moving to jQuery 2 for some projects. I feel a vague sense of guilt.
A Synthetic Theory Of Monitoring: http://t.co/omCnqcfQqd Effectively choosing, collecting and viewing the right metrics is hard.
