Demystifying Fourier analysis

I've started learning about spectrum analysis a long time ago at university, but failed to gain a true insight in how it works under the hood. For me, it was just some magical math formulas I had to memorize and know about. I knew the theory but it didn't really "click".

A few years ago I wanted to do some audio programming and play around with analyzing sound. That's how I got interested into building an intuition on how the Fourier transform "actually" works.

Rust: building a CRUD REST API

What I want to achieve is to build a CRUD application for an items table. And in the end, compare the performance with an equivalent application built in PHP (lumen).

All you need to know about hyphenation in CSS

Automatic hyphenation on the web has been possible since 2011 and is now broadly supported. Safari, Firefox and Internet Explorer 9 upwards support automatic hyphenation, as does Chrome on Android and MacOS (but not yet on Windows or Linux).

After accidentally crash-landing in 2022, time-traveling fighter pilot Adam Reed teams up with his 12-year-old self for a mission to save the future.

In the evening I watched The Adam Project. I liked the movie and give it a 7 out of 10.
