That's a pretty crappy way to detect it seems, it thinks I'm in some city almost a thousand miles away, no VPN, purely direct connection,...

I think what they were referencing with that is that the kernel hardware interface is unstable, it changes literally every version, which is why you went to upstream it so you don't have to keep it up yourself after that.

To be frank, Google Sheets came installed on my phone, don't think it's ever been opened though... Easy way to inflate numbers there.

As someone with extremely similar experience to thomashabets2 over my life, but less go and more rust, please allow me to compare go's Interfaces to rusts dyn Traits, both of which are implemented pretty much identically under the hood

My extended family are also the traditional "white trash", and yes they do indeed think this same way.

A general bevy scripting crate has already been in the works, they were waiting on various things like be y reflect and other such features to be able to work properly and so forth. In other words it's already planned and there's

Indeed, I personally find Rust to be very nice for rapid prototyping, incremental recompilation is usually a second or two even in my giant projects (mold helps on the linking step but that's less of a rust thing anyway), and I'm

CMEs in Java are a constant thorn to many Java programmers as a lifetime violation bug. Hell even NPEs are too for that matter, lol.

You can do it without HKTs with an effects system, which you can think of as another kind of generics that causes the function to be sliced in different ways depending on how it's called. There is movement in Rust to try to do this, b

LibGDX is not so much a Java game engine as it is just a set of helper utilities and little libraries for building a game or engine out of. It is actually surprisingly efficient on the JVM, any inefficiencies will be built on higher levels

I don't think this is accurate as Windows 10 and Windows 11 have edge built in, as WebView2, which is used for some internal Microsoft programs now as well, and older windows systems are not supported in any way by Microsoft themselves

Specifically Tauri uses web views that are based on Chrome or Safari on systems, and only if they don't exist by default will it package it, which somehow still ends up smaller than electron. But on Mac and Windows it is tiny, and on

When initializing a GPU context you can specify whether you want the most efficient device, the fastest device, etc, for a GUI app then you would want to pick the most efficient, which is a single flag to pass in, or supply options and let

Rust actually has a library with very good flutter integration, it does require using dart for the actual flutter part though, but it works well together.

Rust may give a subset of file system functionality that all general file systems should in theory support in the front interface, but you can access platform specific functionality by asking for the extended interface, which you put inside

Honestly curious, but of all the things I've heard people say about QT it could never be about poor performance, it's generally consistently regarded as the fastest complete GUI toolkit out. Even more so because the Linux desktop

More likely, I would wager that they were just overwriting the instructions to draw with new instructions that just inline everything so it didn't need to fetch out to anything.

Things like the borrower checker helps manage all resources, a GC only manages memory.

What are you referencing on that page that is memory and safe, the program panicking when attempting to access invalid memory is one of the safety features, it means you have a programming error that you need to correct and it is bailing ri

Playing a bit of devil's advocate, erlang is more reliable with more nodes by its design because it is expecting hardware to fail, and when that hardware does fail it migrates the functionality that was running on it to another node.

As a developer however, nvidia's closed source drivers are buggy as hell. The amount of issues and times they break the spec is astounding and a constant annoyance. AMD and Intel via the open Mesa drivers are blissful in comparison,

Loving it, but it's very slow on refresh on Linux over ssh as well. Looks like it's doing full screen refreshes on every change instead of just using delta's that tui apps should be doing.
