Filesystem fetishization at its finest. Not only is /etc poorly structured (just like portions of the registry are), it also suffers from lack of uniform format for the data. But hey, registry is bad because it's bad.

Just use some modern source port (and preferably hi res status bar mod).

They aren't just passing by. There's an ongoing fight for the control over this terrain. And, in the unlikely event of Russian troops retreating, I wouldn't put past Russia bombing it.

Unsurprisingly the majority of comments here focus on "how to prevent my free dependencies from breaking" instead of "can we have a systemic way of supporting developers that maintain critical software".

Both-Sides-Ism is such a tiresome stance. Yes, PO fucked up on their way out but that in no way justifies PiS actions, not does it even explain them. They'd dismantle democracy with or without PO's unlawful judgment. It's dis

This doesn't scale though, and OpenBSD - as much as I love it - is a clear example of that. Compare Theo who remains abrasive at times, and Linus, who realized that project the size of Linux cannot be handled with complete disregard fo

There are always types of events that are not suitable for public discourse (pretty much any form of harassment or abuse, where victims are still subject to pressure or were yet unable to process what happened falls into this category). I h

Other tools can do that too. The thing that keeps me on VS is muscle memory. And I'm fine with that. But that doesn't mean that there's no entire different world out there that's viable. :)

Accessibility of that blog is absolutely abysmal. I read the post thinking "cool, too bad you have no contributor list easily available" but the problem is that links are no-underline white, just like the text itself.

At the very least a bespoke engine will deal with state management, data loading and saving, audio, gameplay systems and probably AI. I'd even argue that these are more of a focus in indie games than rendering is.
13.
by DominikD 5y ago
That's not the point. You've got code responsible for audio, asset loading and streaming (which tends to be ad-hoc in "engines" that focus on rendering), UI, state loading and saving, visibility query DB, nav meshes, and

Sounds very much like the ideas around attentive user interfaces.

This text starts with the wrong (and outdated) assumption that animals are owned. If your motivation is to OWN an animal, then sure, I'm totally against it. Especially if you shop for a dog or a cat that looks good in your surroundings

In female cats and dogs neutering eliminates the risk of pyomyxia. The risk in females that have never gave birth is extremely high and consequences of delayed action when it happens are fatal (not to mention that cost of surgery may be pro

It does reduce territorial tendencies in feral cats. Not sure about other animals and living conditions.

I wonder what the future holds now that Project Trident (Void-based Linux distro that came with Lumina as a default DE) has reached its end.

This rings true for a lot of discussions online: technically correct, but irrelevant in context. :|

Could people not spam github threads with "congrats on getting on HN"? This is so obnoxious.

It means both "copy" and "lance" (as in: weapon used for jousting), hence the logo.

It's by far the best open source vector editor out there. Whatever that means varies from person to person. I don't do vectors for publishing so CMYK support is never on my mind. But other people do and if and how this works in In

Vector images are nothing like bitmap images. You can't take bucket fill and use it like you would in Paint. What you did, it seems, is you used a bucket fill on a group of objects, setting their fill to the same color. For what it doe
