Très intéressante lecture.
La section "DESIGNING FEMALE CHARACTERS" donne de chouettes conseils pratiques.
Quelques extraits:
Often it is not a serious problem if gamers don't quite understand their character's mindset or fudge the details on behavior. It is just a game, and rarely will a real Mafia hitman or elven wizard be watching and criticizing the level of realism.
But when playing a character (or NPC) of a different gender/ethnic background than yourself, the line between poetic license and offensive stereotyping thins, especially if someone of that gender/ethnicity (or someone who is dating one) is sitting right across the table.While it is pleasant for gaming publications to assume players and gamemasters lack flaws, playing in many campaigns quickly proves otherwise, and it is individuals' behaviors which are responsible for shaping and eventually changing the gaming community.
A disturbingly large number of male players we have seen make female characters in these two stereotypes [a "Complete Slut" or a "Total Bitch"] -- inhumanly beautiful babes who sleep with anyone to get their way or obnoxious, whiny or cruel "ice queens."
Women don't think of femininity as different or strange, any more than men think it's odd to be male [...]. When growing up [...], you assume everyone is just like you. Most self-confident little girls growing up in modern America see that they can do anything boys can [..] If anything, women seem superior to men. (Of course, not everyone has a lot of self-confidence.)
A 45-year-old woman who calls her mother every day is considered to have a good relationship with her. A 45-year-old man who calls his mother every day is considered "tied to her apron strings.
As hard as this might be to hear, often the problem is not that the women don't like games, but that women don't like gamers.
As one long-time female gamer confessed to us recently, "even though everyone in my present game are really nice to me, I never feel included in their jokes. When they try to include me, it ends up feeling like they're doing me a favor rather than accepting me as an equal participant."
On my personnal server, I used to send myself alerts by email using the handy standard mail command.
However, recently it appeared that my server became categorized as "spammer" by some online service providers,
due to the alerts frequency (a little bit more than one per day).
Hence, I got …

This whole story is really sad, and a blow to the open source community.
The whole thing was brought to court in Texas : https://dockets.justia.com/docket/texas/txndce/4:2016cv00110/269823
Steven Jungels last words on this project : https://github.com/transcode-open/apt-cyg/blob/master/status.md
Interestingly, it was never even mentioned on the Cygwin mailing list:
https://sourceware.org/cgi-bin/search.cgi?cmd=Search!&fmt=long&form=extended&GroupBySite=no&m=all&ps=10&q=%22apt-cyg%22&sp=1&su=title&sy=1&type=&ul=/ml/%25&wf=2221&wm=wrd&s=DRP
Btw, I did not know that Cygwin was now founded by Red Hat.
There is a little bit of interesting history of the project on Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cygwin
Commits are still regularly made on the project:

Ces dernières 24h, j'ai eu cette lubie stupide de vouloir utiliser l'API Tickets Restaurant. Une API qui n'est pas documentée. Dont le site est en ASP.NET (beurk). Qui a une app officielle android.
Ahah !
Bref, j'ai tenté de reverse-engineer un APK alors que je n'ai même pas de smartphone …
Plusieurs solutions:
- L’API C de CPython. Y’en a qu’ont essayé, ils ont eu des problèmes…
En utilisant cette méthode, vous aurez accès à tout l’interpréteur Python et vous pourrez tout faire… mais à quel prix ?
Je ne vous recommande pas cette approche, je me suis cassé les dents pendant 4 mois dessus avec un succès mitigé.- Cython est une bonne solution mais plus orienté sur l’optimisation de code.
- CFFI: le saint Graal, alléluia!
Il y a trois moyens d’utiliser CFFI, comprenez bien cela car c’est la partie tricky:
- Le mode ABI/Inline
- Le mode API/Out-of-line
- Le mode ABI/Out-of-line

Le week-end dernier, j'ai participé à ma première Global Game Jam, à Nantes. Dans cet article, je vais vous présenter comment elle s'est déroulée, et faire le point sur ce qui a plus ou moins bien marché pour notre projet, The King Must Know, dont voici l'écran d'accueil :
J'avais déjà …

"Devs should be able to run entire env locally. Anything else is just a sign of bad tooling"
"pre-production testing is a best effort verification of a small subset of the guarantees of a system and often can prove to be grossly insufficient for long running systems with protean traffic patterns"
"The writing and running of tests is not a goal in and of itself — EVER. We do it to get some benefit for our team, or the business"
"there are coverage based fuzzers like afl as well as tools like the address sanitizer, thread sanitizer, memory sanitizer, undefined behavior sanitizer and the leak sanitizer to name a few."
"This was but one example of a system that didn’t stand much to benefit from integration testing and where monitoring has worked much better."
While developing a new project is like rolling on a green field for you, maintaining it is a potential dark twisted nightmare for someone else. Here's a list of guidelines we've found, written and gathered that (we think) works really well with most JavaScript projects here at hive. If you want to share a best practice, or think one of these guidelines should be removed, feel free to share it with us.

Le GDPR (ou RGPD en français) est le nouveau règlement européen en matière de protection des données personnelles. Pas d’inquiétude, je ne vais pas faire de présentation complète du sujet! C’est indigeste et je ne suis pas coutumier des gros dossiers. Il s’agit d’un article de vulgarisation, il y a des raccourcis et des approximations, l’objectif est de donner un aperçu grossier de ce que la GDPR implique.
