What a load of rubbish. Is this generated by AI? Sure reads like slop...

The real deal is Obj-C++ - now there is a powerful combo xD For example, we used template wrappers around NSArray for static type checking and "smart pointers" to avoid manual release/retain calls all over the place, which wa

And there goes my trust in Firefox out the window... Safari seems to be the only decent, privacy-focused browser left on the market. Until the Ladybird arrives.

Some Russian closed-source music player... While it's a cool concept, I am far too paranoid to actually install it.

While true, it is often ignored that combined EU does possess a huge, highly advanced and well trained military force. So more than that I'd hope EU can then put its squabbling aside and respong in unison to any military provocation as

Not quite as small. Combined EU has the largest economy in the world, is by far the wealthiest region on the planet, possesses a huge & advanced military force and despite decline still has pretty substantial manufacturing capacity. (on

I wish whole of EU would declare in unison support for Taiwan. Wonder if China would kick out every single EU nation embassy then?

so much for their much hyped Safety and Security and Privacy ... Hypocrites. The whole Industry.

I feel like Go lost its chance by being way too slow to innovate. From my circle of people who I remember were extremely excited about Go when it first came out - no one really uses it anymore. In our circle it has become a "meh"

I have fond memories of ExtJS until version 4 was released. I used to be huge advocate of extjs at our company, but I remember feeling horror and dismay seeing how down hill it went with 4.0. Communication with the community, their pricing

Neat, but horrid naming for everything. Why does namespace need explicit "cpp_" prefix? Why do classes inside "cpp_redis" namespace still have "redis_" prefix? I would prefer simple "redis::client" so

If I had a language that could do a cool microsite in just few lines of my language code I'd be pretty proud of it too.

This is lunacy. It will break compatibility with nearly all software out there. From games to productivity apps. Like the stuff I actually use a PC for.

Competition yes, but I'd prefer from AMD rather than a different CPU architecture.

Frankly this is to be expected when "developers" working on these projects tend to be script kiddies more concerned with UX/design rather than solid architecture engineering. When backends are thrown together as an afterthoug

There are other differences to consider: such as deterministic destruction with reference counting.

I think services like firebase are a very scary thing. Too much dependence on one vendor, too much black box magic, too much logic that is beyond control. And services like this contribute to general dumbing down of software developers. We&

"looks constantly good" is debatable. I find that it looks generic and web like. It has none or very little native look & feel to it. Coupled with being slow, resource hungry long loading times ...

While I consider web-tech in native a cancer I can't help, but agree. There is no good cross platform native UI library today. Few that are are stuck in 90s metaphor or poorly designed. Which I think is partly the reason why html-css-j

Atom and VSCode despite all the hype are subpar editors. Slow and resource hungry. Maybe suitable for script kiddies of today ... Slack is by no means a good sample of solid engineering. Spotify last I checked was native app written in c++.

Slow, sluggish, resource hungry and looks alien everywhere. Yeah right. Progress ... If there is one thing its done is lower standard for native applications everywhere.

Agreed. This hysteria is getting tiresome. I think Apple should simply get rid of investors and go private. I think its big enough and has enough cash to do just that.

That's the main idea of wxWidgets - it doesn't have its own GUI backend (wxUniversal really doesn't count) but uses other native frameworks such as win32, cocoa gtk and now QT too. So it will probably look nice and native in

30% less fuel means smaller, lighter rockets. Compound cost savings over all.

so how is this different from say TypeScript?

we are talking out of the box experience. One could make the same comment about os-x: it is possible to customise icons, change look & feel of the UI etc. to make it look the way you like it :D
