> Sony's Naughty Dog game studio has created just such a large project, actually a framework for creating projects. Roughly speaking, Sony's Racket-based architecture provides languages for describing scenes, transitions between scenes, scores for scenes, and more. Domain specialists use the languages to describe aspects of the game. The Racket implementation composes these domain-specific programs, then compiles them into dynamically linked libraries for a C-based game engine

The article is not specifically about Naughty Dog, it's about #Racket as a catalyst of Language-Oriented Programming.

Camilo Aguilar on the rsync algorithm
http://paperswelove.org/2017/video/camilo-aguilar-rsync-algorithm/
These days, mobile phones are packed with multi core CPUs and even GPUs. Despite these advances in hardware, internet connections in most parts of the world are still surprisingly slow and unreliable. This creates a challenge: how can files be efficiently transferred between computers over a low-bandwidth, high latency network connection?
David Ashby on SHA256
http://paperswelove.org/2017/video/david-ashby-shamwow/
While most of us use hash functions on a daily basis, few people can say that they truly understand what’s actually going on when they call SHA2("hello world"). Even fewer can say they’ve bothered to implement the function themselves, considering every introduction to cryptography starts off with a big warning saying to never, ever implement cryptographic primitives and just use vetted libraries due to the security implications.
Jessie Frazelle on SCONE: Secure Linux Containers with Intel SGX
http://paperswelove.org/2017/video/jessie-frazelle-scone-secure-linux-containers-with-intel-sgx/
In 2016, the SCONE paper was written and presented at the USENIX Symposium on Operating Systems Design and Implementation. It outlined how to use Intel Secure Enclaves to guard containers against attack. Containers are built on the kernel primitives cgroups and namespaces with additional LSM (Linux Security Module) layers on top, such as AppArmor, SELinux, and seccomp.
