No Index GroupBy Optimization
Dolt and Doltgres were using a secondary index for GROUP BY queries even when a full table scan would be faster. By analyzing EXPLAIN output and flame graphs, the team discovered that when a filter selects more than ~50% of rows, the secondary index lookup overhead outweighs its benefits. They added heuristics to the query coster: secondary indexes are only preferred when they select few…

Substack writers, you need a website
Writers who rely on Substack as their primary digital home are making a strategic mistake. Substack and similar platforms are distribution tools, not permanent homes — when you build on someone else's platform, you're a tenant, not an owner. The POSSE model (Publish on your Own Site, Syndicate Elsewhere) offers a better approach: publish first to a domain you own and control, then…

The Disappearing Senior: AI and Entry Level Jobs
AI is eliminating entry-level developer work, but there's a less-discussed second effect: senior engineers are quietly losing their skills by only approving AI-generated output rather than doing the work themselves. The 'reasoning muscle' atrophies when judgment is never exercised. Meanwhile, no new seniors are being produced because the junior work that used to forge …

How I Learned to Structure React Projects Around Change, Not Folders
Technical folder structures (components, hooks, services, utils) make React repos easy to browse but hard to change, because a single feature's logic is scattered across unrelated directories. The key insight is organizing code around ownership of change rather than file type. This means colocating a feature's components, state, validation, API call…

Locally great, globally drifting
An evaluation of AI-generated frontend code in a real product reveals a recurring pattern: AI performs well in isolated, localized contexts but struggles to maintain consistency at the system level. The post argues that AI should be used as a candidate generator and validator rather than as the final decision-maker in code review.

Showing the 12 most recent of 23 posts we hold for @computer_science_and_programming. View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999. Unmarked counts are exact. Text is reproduced from the public post preview and truncated for length.
