This week has been about AI, BPMN, a sed alternative, bullshit as a social practice and smart pointers in Rust.

# Intuitive find & replace CLI (sed alternative)

A tool to replace sed. It offers less backslashes and more familiar regular expressions.

# Playing the Bullshit Game: How Empty and Misleading Communication Takes Over Organizations

A paper that argues that bullshit is a social practice.

# AI - the no bullshit approach

An article analysing the landscape of constructing computer programs and what are the shortcomings of the current hybrid approaches.

# Crust of Rust: Smart Pointers and Interior Mutability (video)

A video on the differences of different smart pointers in Rust such as Cell, RefCell and Rc.

# Math to code

An interactive tutorial to learn NumPy.

# BPMN Modeler

A tool to create flow diagrams in BPMN based on bpmn-js

The tutorial from the same people is much more palatable than the OMG specification.
