a fun game to play is reading about world war 2 concepts involving 18 buildings of people across 9 towns and then thinking about what trivial modern datastructure replaces 90% of the literally built infrastructure

ClojureDart has a new join-with function which has accelerated datastructure support. What is it useful for? Some examples 👇🧵

You have a file named `part_detection.py`. It's got a class named `PartDetector` and a supporting datastructure for holding the result - do you call it `PartDetectionResult` or just `Result`? What kind of freak are you? I need to know.

Union Find / Disjoint Set Union has to be the coolest datastructure right? There's something inexplicably nice about it

Today in "Silly Rust Tricks": What if you want your data structure to be "generic over async/not async?"

The idea is to have `DataStructure` and `DataStructure`.

This only works for some shapes of data structures, but is a Fun Trick, IMO.

Looking to visualize distributions clearly and effectively? The ggdensity package enhances ggplot2 in R by simplifying the creation of appealing density plots.

Example taken from the official package website: jamesotto852.github.io/ggdensity/

This was a fun and challenging feature to build, so happy it's finally rolling out!

If you wanna read a bit about how I built the backend for it, check out this blog post - jazco.dev/2024/04/20/r...

Roaring Bitmaps are a really neat datastructure and have a lot of uses in large-scale systems :)

wrote a datastructure, then wrote a post about it instead of the code i said i was going to write in the first place

it's about concurrent data structures if you're into that

No, just increased usage. Redis is an in-memory datastructure server. It needed a bigger box

The "right" datastructure for human ancestry is the... Ancestral Recombination Graph ... not PCA of anything (there is definitely *not* a linear orthogonal space of how humans relate to each other). In some sense everything is an approximation to the ARG.

the datastructure was already very good, but because I needed thread-safety and support for concurrent reads, decided to make it a new module instead and bring the idea to make the architecture more cache-friendly (flat+binary search vs. rbtree)

Roaring bitmaps are super cool, if you want to learn a bit more about how bitmaps can be used for graph data and how Roaring Bitmaps come in handy, check out this blog post ^. I hope to do some more writing about them soon cause it's definitely my new favorite datastructure after bloom filters.

somehow… it’s connected to the hyperloglog cardinality estimator. when i stub out its serialization/deserialization wrappers it stops crashing. i cannot express how much this makes no sense. but more importantly i cannot explain how deep a betrayal this is from my fave datastructure.

Working on overhauling the fireworks system we use at #stageflight, trying to make it easier to program effects for @windyote.bsky.social to make beautiful shows. This is the current progress on the programmer, very barebones but the underlying DMX Datastructure system is there. Info in comments
