Reduce Your Testcases with Bugpoint and Custom Scripts https://blog.llvm.org/2015/11/reduce-your-testcases-with-bugpoint-and.html (incredible tool for automatically reducing LLVMIR testcases)

I like the concept of truthiness, but it's hard switching between languages. Python, JS and elisp all have different opinions on.
NVidia is essentially open sourcing their Fortran compiler! https://www.llnl.gov/news/nnsa-national-labs-team-nvidia-develop-open-source-fortran-compiler-technology (LLVM may be weak copyleft but people contribute back)
Quitting to command loop in Elisp https://oremacs.com/2015/07/16/callback-quit/ (essentially a GOTO with stack replacement!)
Nifty elisp snippets for treating byte compile warnings as errors on Travis:
Emacs command of the day: github-clone. From https://github.com/dgtized/github-clone.el, clone and fork without leaving the comfort of Emacs!
Automated performance tracking of LLVM-generated code https://llvm.org/devmtg/2015-10/slides/Beyls-AutomatedPerformanceTrackingOfLlvmGeneratedCode.pdf (has cute idea of hashing compiler output to measure churn)
How was Powershell intended to compare with bash, from the original developer:
Since the Netflix API shut down, I don't take APIs for granted. Delighted to learn that eBay's API is pretty featureful.
I'm very impressed that an ag.el user took the time to attach a video to their GitHub issue!
Most macros I write are `def-foo' (declarative) or `with-foo' (setup then tidying). This gives predictable semantics: important with macros.
I don't read enough code. I skimmed a few GB emulators today and saw some great approaches to structure. The nicest:
In the DOM, no one will hear you scream https://www.slideshare.net/x00mario/in-the-dom-no-one-will-hear-you-scream (argues that perfect server-side XSS protection is impossible!)
A Pixel Is Not a Little Square! https://alvyray.com/Memos/CG/Microsoft/6_pixel.pdf (more relevant in this age of high DPI screens)
