Internet Explorer has turned 10.

"We do so much with our browsers today that we take for granted, but do you remember the first time you bought something over the Internet? What about the first time you checked your bank balance, the first time you booked concert tickets, or the first time you were pointed to an URL instead of a .EXE file to install an application?"

Internet Explorer has turned 10.

Happy Birthday IE!

Uncle Bob vs. Grady Booch: Rethinking Code Reviews in the Age of AI

Image
In response to a question about the feasibility of effective code reviews for large (e.g., 500-line) AI-generated PRs like those from Claude, especially when reviewers lack deep codebase familiarity in new projects or fast-paced environments, Uncle Bob Martin and Grady Booch have contrasting views Uncle Bob Martin advocates metrics-based oversight (test coverage, complexity, dependencies) and higher-level management over line-by-line AI code review, while Grady Booch stresses manual verification for vulnerabilities, dead code, and performance factors. Uncle Bob Martin : " I don’t review code written by agents . I measure things like test coverage, dependency structure, cyclomatic complexity, module sizes, mutation testing, etc.  Much can be inferred about the quality of the code from those metrics. The code itself I leave to the AI.  Humans are slow at code. To get productivity we humans need to disengage from code and manage from a higher level." Grady Booch : "Unlike B...

Compact Business PCs Explained: Dell OptiPlex, Intel NUC and Lenovo ThinkCentre Tiny Desktops Compared

Image
For many people, a desktop computer conjures up images of a large tower sitting under a desk. Yet over the past decade, manufacturers such as Dell, Intel, ASUS, and Lenovo have shown that a capable desktop doesn't have to be much larger than a paperback book. Compact business desktops—including the Dell OptiPlex Micro , Intel NUC (now ASUS NUC ) , and Lenovo ThinkCentre Tiny series such as the M700 Tiny —typically occupy just around one litre of volume , earning them the nickname "1L PCs." Despite their small size, these machines often include desktop-class Intel Core processors, support up to 32–64 GB of RAM (depending on the model), NVMe SSD storage, Gigabit Ethernet, Wi-Fi, and the ability to drive multiple monitors. Many consume only 10–30 watts during typical office work, making them significantly more energy efficient than traditional desktop towers. Originally designed for enterprise environments where desk space and manageability were important, these systems ...
