Linux Desktop is starting to smell a lot like Android now judging by how vertically integrated it is becoming. With the push for a permissively-licensed (MIT, BSD etc.) userland and concentration of developers within a small group of compan

Digging further, this has been shown before in 2020: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23337091 The author mentions in the thread that he eventually plans to have a proper license for it and needs to figure out the licen

I'm surprised no one has noticed this yet.

That assumes there is pride they have to bother to keep.

Now that I think about it, and I don't know if this exists yet, but APL would probably very much benefit from having a Scratch-like or Factorio-like visual editor paired with a touch interface. You would drag and drop symbols, and long

APL suffers from the same apparent problems as Perl: They have friction coming from an unconventional syntax that's hard to understand without knowing the language beforehand, and when faced with competition, people went with the path

>Godot locks you into the Godot way of doing things. MonoGame is a thin cross-platform abstraction over platform APIs for sprite rendering, audio playback, input, and font, leaving you to build your game engine yourself however you like.

Uh, is having Aurora Store as a signatory a good idea? It's literally a Google Play Store bypassing tool.

Honestly, this sounds like a future headache that would otherwise go unnoticed unless the programmer is dealing with porting or binding over source code meant for older Windows systems to Zig (or supporting older systems in general). Eventu

Wouldn't that be just QR codes (and equivalents)? I suppose 3D printers can be used to etch/print them onto a durable material and then have it read back using the measuring tools you mention, but at that point I think you would b

I haven't really looked into this, but is it possible to make GTK4 apps look liek standard GTK2/GTK3 applications? It feels like every single modern GTK app I've encountered has that modern Rounded-Material look to them and i

`archive.ph` doesn't seem to work on paywalled Medium articles. Not trying to point fingers or make a comment on the value of the article's content, but it's worth noting that 7 links from this Medium account have been submit

I really hope Google doesn't pick this out (and similar events) as further justification for getting rid of APK-based installation.

I skimmed through it. Note that this book was written right before Tinder launched (2012), which might have skewed the demographic data points found in this edition (2010). Although dating apps have definitely existed before then, that (and

Why doesn't Zig attract the same sort of lukewarm response that Rust does from parts of communities?

Another aside - I do end up spending a lot of time working on the presentation of a thing like trying to polish things like user interfaces, vector or raster graphics, typesetting, CSS and other visual-ish stuff. It's something I'

I'm not sure if I understand correctly about "thinking in concrete English sentences or words" as other comments have mentioned, so here's a description of what happens to me: I can visualize things in my mind, and it&#x

I feel like articles like these almost always leave out the people who want these questions to be answered: * "Why would I want to network with people?" * "I don't feel like engaging with anyone." * "I don&#x27
