Software Requirements Specification (SRS) – Case Study 1
https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/1p2cx2s/software_requirements_specification_srs_case/

<!-- SC_OFF -->I just published a lecture about Software Requirements Specifications (SRS), using as an example the SRS of my Cloud-Based Multi-Service Platform for Smart Event Management case study project, which I host as a public repository in GitHub. There's a link to the SRS document and to the repository in the video denoscription. In this video I talk about functional requirements, non-funcional requirements, technical requirements, security, testing and architecture in the context of the case study software project. The goal is to share insights of how a Software Requirements Specification looks like in the real word, its application and importance on software development projects. <!-- SC_ON --> submitted by /u/ZoePsomi (https://www.reddit.com/user/ZoePsomi)

https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/1p2r971/introducing_zelixos_a_modern_fast_and_clean_linux/

<!-- SC_OFF -->Hello everyone, I’d like to share a project I’ve been working on for some time now: ZelixOS, an Ubuntu Linux distribution designed to be fast, modern, and reliable for both new users and advanced Linux enthusiasts. ZelixOS is built on top of a stable Ubuntu LTS foundation, using the apt package manager, while providing a clean and optimized KDE Plasma desktop experience. Key Features 1. Clean and Modern KDE Plasma Experience
A minimal, polished, and responsive Plasma setup optimized for everyday use. 2. Improved Performance
Background services and startup processes are carefully optimized to reduce RAM usage and improve boot times. 3. Custom Zelix Applications
The system includes several tools developed specifically for ZelixOS: Zelix Welcome Zelix Cleaner Zelix Backup Zelix Essentials Zelix Helper 4. Ubuntu LTS Reliability
Strong hardware compatibility, large software repositories, and long-term stability. 5. Easy Installation
Uses Calamares for a user-friendly and straightforward installation process. Who Is ZelixOS For? KDE Plasma users Beginners transitioning to Linux Students and developers Anyone who wants a lightweight, stable, and clean desktop Those who like Ubuntu but want a more refined, performance-tuned experience Download & More Information You can find the download links, source code, and documentation here:
Github Page (https://github.com/lanierc/zelixos) r/ZelixOS (https://www.reddit.com/user/Minsir/) Website (https://lanierc.github.io/zelixos/) Feedback Welcome If you give ZelixOS a try, I’d be very happy to hear your impressions, suggestions, or bug reports.
Community feedback plays an important role in shaping the project. <!-- SC_ON --> submitted by /u/Minsir (https://www.reddit.com/user/Minsir)

A Technical Insight About Modern Compilation
https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/1p2x8ex/a_technical_insight_about_modern_compilation/

<!-- SC_OFF -->Within the past several years, I have been intrigued by the aggressive code optimization of high-level code into surprisingly efficient machine instructions by modern compilers. The part of it that most interests me is that even small refactors such as eliminating dead code or preventing dead air type transformations can produce huge effects on the assembly output. It serves as a nice reminder that though modern languages are abstract, the reasoning of compilers about code has much more practical use, particularly in troubleshooting code performance bottlenecks. <!-- SC_ON --> submitted by /u/Prize-Tomorrow-5249 (https://www.reddit.com/user/Prize-Tomorrow-5249)
