I don't know if it's still true in 2021 but it used to be kind of difficult to valgrind C and C++ code that linked with OpenSSL since it did some tricks that confused valgrind. You would usually have to recompile OpenSSL with a sp

This is really sad and I can't imagine going through that. I think we've also heard time and time again that HR is not out to protect you but rather the company. I understand that this is this person's first job but they shou

Well, people are working actively on Chrome and Firefox, and people are building new browsers on top of webkit often enough. If you mean an alternative browser not based on the 3 major rendering engines, well that one is not really surprisi

I guess by being on Debian I haven't noticed yet how bad its gotten. I do agree with you. Maybe it's time to migrate to IceWM 2.0.

Following the license should not be considered a "shitty thing to do". In fact, it's a perfectly reasonable thing to do.

Still no chromium update. It should just be removed if there is no interest in updating the browser.

Most of my tablets run Android and seem locked down and unable to run some alternative Linux desktop environment. These are mostly slower arm based machines that I think would be difficult to load a clean Linux onto them. I'd love to b

This is me too and sometimes I feel like the language is going in two directions. The academic / scholar path where people show off unreadable C++ like this and the business path where professionals that use a subset of the language (m

If you are targeting Linux with a professional GUI application your only options in 2020 are GTK or Qt (or toolkits that are built on top of those like wxWidgets). The other options lack manpower or features. In 2020 you need HiDPI support,

This article is a bit click-baity. It's more about busting myths by a particular C++ programmer against rust. Anyway for a truth (well maybe it is a myth?) that we can't bust yet... Rust is simply not available on all platforms th

I think what squarefoot is looking for is lightweight (tiny?) C apps that have limited abstraction layers. For example, Gtk+, which is pure C, is no longer considered lightweight. It was with Gtk+ 1.2 because GTK was just a small wrapper ar
