It’s annoyingly-difficult to advocate for users from a technology standpoint in 2025. Defaults are usually slanted for the benefit of service providers.
As an example: it took me WAY too long to figure out how to turn off link rewriting in emails we’re sending with AWS Simple Email Service. I had to find it in two different places before we could send URLs we actually asked it to send (instead of bouncing them through their tracking service). The default was invasive and hard to change…

One of the things that I think has always been a benefit of C is that old code has generally continued to work with new code due to how conservative language changes have been. I think C23 is going to cause some pain though, and since GCC now defaults to the C23 standard that's kind of important.
For 50 years everyone has been defining their own boolean types in C due to the language not having that facility built in. Now we get 'bool', 'true' and 'false' a…

Folks using PHP don't relize how good we have it for things like "a nice datetime built-in" and "reasonably secure defaults on password generation and randomness."
And the three things I mentioned above have been around since 2006, 2013, and 2015, respectively.

Revisiting Sampling Strategies for Molecular Generation
Sampling strategies in diffusion models are critical to molecular generation yet remain relatively underexplored. In this work, we investigate a broad spectrum of sampling methods beyond conventional defaults and reveal that sampling choice substantially affects molecular generation performance. In particular, we identify a maximally stochastic sampling (StoMax), a simple yet underexplored strategy, as consistently outperforming default sampling methods for generative models DDPM and BFN. Our f…
