This is why native menus feel so much better. Prediction cone / safe triangle — the invisible area that stops submenus from closing when you move diagonally. props @sorenblank

A French engineer who lives quietly in Paris has spent 30 years writing software that the entire internet now runs on without knowing his name. He wrote the code that streams every YouTube video, every Netflix show, every TikTok clip. He wrote the code that runs the virtual servers underneath AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure. He calculated more digits of pi than anyone in history. He has no Twitter. He has no marketing. He just keeps shipping. His name is Fabrice Bellard. Here is the story, because almost nobody outside the systems programming world knows what one man has built. Fabrice was born in 1972 in Grenoble, France. He studied at École Polytechnique, the top French engineering school. He never went to Silicon Valley. He never built a startup empire. He just wrote code. In 2000 he started a project called FFmpeg, an open-source multimedia framework for encoding, decoding, and streaming video. He was 28. The project did one thing nobody else had done well. It handled every video and audio format that existed, in one library, on every operating system. He led it himself for years. Today FFmpeg is the invisible engine of the internet. YouTube uses it. Netflix uses it. VLC uses it. Chrome and Firefox use parts of it. Every Android phone, every iPhone, every smart TV, every video editing tool you have ever touched runs FFmpeg somewhere underneath. If you have watched a video on a screen in the last 20 years, Fabrice's code processed it. He was not done. In 2003 he started QEMU, a machine emulator and virtualizer. He wrote it solo until version 0.7.1 in 2005. QEMU lets you run any operating system on any other operating system. It became the foundation of modern virtualization. KVM, the Linux kernel hypervisor, runs on top of QEMU. Every major cloud provider, AWS, Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure, IBM Cloud, runs virtual machines on infrastructure built around it. The Quick Emulator is the most cited piece of cloud infrastructure code on Earth. He kept going. In 2001 he won the International Obfuscated C Code Contest with a small C compiler that grew into TCC, the Tiny C Compiler. TCC can compile and boot a Linux kernel from source in under 15 seconds. In 2004 he calculated the most digits of pi ever computed at the time, using a personal desktop computer and an algorithm he derived himself called Bellard's formula. In 2011 he wrote a complete PC emulator in pure JavaScript that runs Linux in your browser, a project called JSLinux that engineers still cannot believe is real. In 2019 he released QuickJS, a small but complete JavaScript engine that fits where V8 cannot. In 2021 he released NNCP, a neural network based lossless data compressor that immediately took the lead on the Large Text Compression Benchmark. Then he turned his attention to large language models. He built TextSynth Server, a web server with a REST API for running LLMs locally. He released ts_zip and ts_sms, compression utilities that use language models to compress text and short messages at ratios traditional algorithms cannot reach. He released TSAC, a very low bitrate audio compression system. In December 2025 he released Micro QuickJS, a new JavaScript engine for microcontrollers, separate from QuickJS, designed for environments with almost no memory. Fabrice co-founded a telecom company called Amarisoft in 2012, where he serves as CTO. Amarisoft builds 4G and 5G base station software used by carriers and labs around the world. He has been running it for over a decade while continuing to ship personal projects from his own home page at bellard dot org He has no Twitter. He has no Instagram. He gives almost no interviews. His personal website is a flat list of projects with no styling, no fonts, no marketing copy. Just titles and links. A quiet French engineer who never moved to Silicon Valley wrote the code that quietly runs the internet. He is still shipping.

Accessibility Tip 💡 Start using 'rem' unit in CSS, It scales automatically based on user browser preferences unlike fixed units like 'px'.

Using CSS mask-image you can truncate texts with a smooth fade effect. It looks clean and it's a great alternative to text ellipsis. .text-container { overflow: hidden; white-space: nowrap; -webkit-mask-image: linear-gradient( to right, black 50%, transparent); mask-image: linear-gradient( to right, black 50%, transparent); } } If you found this one useful, follow for more! ❤️

Netflix, Wikipedia, Airbnb, Dropbox ~ all run on the same web server. One quiet Russian engineer wrote it alone. For free. 🤯 Meet Igor Sysoev 🇷🇺 > Russian software engineer. Born 1970 in Soviet Kazakhstan. > Failed his first university entrance exam. > Joined Rambler in 2000 as a system administrator. > 2002 ~ started writing a new web server in his free time. Alone. > Goal: handle 10,000 simultaneous users on one machine ~ a problem Apache (the dominant web server at the time) couldn't solve. > 2004 ~ released nginx publicly. Free. Open source. > Zero marketing. Zero PR. Just the code. > 2008 ~ nginx was serving 500 million requests per day at Rambler. > 2011 ~ founded Nginx Inc. with co-founder Maxim Konovalov. > 2013 ~ Netflix scaled its streaming CDN to 40 Gbps per server using nginx. > 2019 ~ F5 acquired the company for $670 million. > December 2019 ~ Russian police raided his Moscow office over a fake copyright claim. > The Russian tech community publicly defended him. Charges were dropped.🚀 > 2021 ~ nginx overtook Apache as the #1 web server on Earth. > 2022 ~ left F5 quietly. No farewell tour. No book deal. > Today nginx powers Netflix, Wikipedia, Airbnb, Dropbox, Cloudflare, WordPress. > 33% of every website on Earth runs on his code. Apache trails at 26%. Microsoft's IIS isn't even close. > Still 100% open-source. Still free. One man wrote it alone, in his free time, for free. He never sought publicity. He never asked for credit. A third of every website on Earth still runs on his work. Webserver GOAT. 🐐
