Reverse engineering Märklin train track geometry. Can anyone confirm that it’s based on a 5/6 mm unit? I have no idea why that would be the case but it makes all the lengths integer and rounds to the catalogue numbers.

Me: Huh, interesting that go gzip generates larger files than normal gzip.
*one hour later*
Opus: That’s because it doesn’t emit 3-byte matches. Here’s the original source and a histogram I got from a gzipped file.

Highly recommended reading if you’re interested in processor architecture.
My only concern: it spends a lot of words on the easy stuff and then glosses over the advanced stuff.
Nice! It’s a great first chapter, and I learned something.
Here is the first chapter of a book I was writing on @bazelbuild. It talks about my motivation and journey in understanding how bazel can be valuable to me
The book won’t get finished, but I’m happy that I’m able to share the work that was done for it 😅

I worked at Google for over 10 years and my experience was, fortunately, different. It’s a big company and different parts have very different cultures.
"Google has 175,000+ capable and well-compensated employees who get very little done."

There's a lot of microservices hate, but there are also terrible balls of yarn. It reminds me that many orgs are not good at engineering.
