I always enjoy an opportunity to post this ~ Alphonse Bertillon, pioneer of the front-&-profile criminal mugshot, did some practice runs with his nephew, a notoriously hardened criminal, aged 2. His crime? 'Nibbling pears' (Silver albumen print, 1893 MoMA)

I was asked about bring-your-own-key for @jetbrains.com AI more than once... blog.jetbrains.com/ai/2025/11/b...

I like how you can use emojis to zoom in on a pig 🐖 🐷 🐽

Damn, it is hard to believe, but Java compiles the `switch` over the `String` values by using the runtime-provided `hashCode()` impl. Meaning it is not possible to change the `String.hashCode` impl w/o recompiling all the Java programs.

We are getting closer to the release of Resharper 2025.3 , so I ran some performance tests to see how much we improved compared to 2025.2. For this iteration, I focused my effort mainly on the huge Datadog.Trace solution, available on the DataDog/dd-trace-dotnet repository. Results below 👇

Yay. Priceless. The right column at the right time. And a gleefully English two fingers to the haters.

Well Apple photos is very smart. A little too smart. It recognises that this is a gig photo, and knows it’s at the O2 Institute and can therefore work out who this is! Sadly, it thinks it’s the O2 Institute 3, and so thinks this is Amanda McCoy. Close, but no cigar (this is Pop Will Eat Itself)
