My guess would be so that they could make use of a single code base.

It seems that peak native Windows dev tools were Delphi 7 and VB6. It's a tragedy that something at least as good as VB6 is not still developed and supported by Microsoft.

With restrictions of course.

I'm hoping to soon start beta testing of a similar SaaS. Just wanted to say that you and your business are a huge inspiration for me.

I had a very similar path starting with dBASE III Plus. As you say the productivity it (xBASE/FoxPro/Clipper) offered was remarkable. One of the tools that I really wish I had was a FoxPro/Clipper compiler that took a subset

Absolutely correct! We've lost a lot along the way.

Kudos to you! Looks very nice and well thought out. I was working on a native Windows tool for data exploration of SQLite but I shelved it. If you don't mind my asking -- what language and toolkit do you use? I can certainly see a lot

I'm building a site auditing tool with a pluggable metrics pipeline. It's implemented in Java using Javalin for API, OkHttp for fetching, and jsoup for parsing. I'm experimenting with an event sink model for metrics aggregati

That could be a lot of fun to play with, especially if it has PowerVM.

Very cool! What compilers and interpreters are available? I know that rexx wasn't available at the time that the open source vm/370 was released. Has the community found a way to add rexx?

Interesting! I never imagined that would be a thing. Thought that zerks were only for grease.

I made the clarification because the comment I replied to mentioned Android, iOS, and macOS. There are many who used Delphi before FMX appeared and I thought it would be helpful to point out that VCL only makes Windows executables.

Yes, you can build cross-platform GUI apps with Delphi. However, that requires using Firemonkey (FMX). If you build a GUI app using VCL on Delphi, it's limited to Windows. If you build an app with Lazarus and LCL, you CAN have it work

"A lot of code can be pessimized by golfing instruction counts" Can you explain what this phrase means?

by dardeaup 9mo ago
Sounds nice! I could see where that could be simultaneously rewarding and frustrating. Best of luck to you.

This was the first thought that occurred to me too when I saw this post.

I would be more inclined to use it if it didn't have punctuation within the name.

That only works for really small holes.

I've been holding off on Zig because it hasn't reached 1.0 milestone, but I'm starting to think that it might be time to start digging in. Is Ziglings kept up with language changes being made in Zig? It would be very frustrat

What I tried to say (perhaps not successfully) was that core Ceph knows nothing about S3. One gets S3 endpoint capability from the radosgw which is not a required component in a ceph cluster.

by dardeaup 10mo ago
"Ceph is fundamentally already RADOS at its core (fully compatible with S3 API.)" Yes, Ceph is RADOS at its core. However, RADOS != S3. Ceph provides an S3 compatible backend with the RADOS Gateway (RGW).

Ceph has multiple daemons that would need to be running: monitor, manager, OSD (1 per storage device), and RADOS Gateway (RGW). If you only had a single storage device it would still be 4 daemons.

by dardeaup 10mo ago
Ceph is awesome for software defined storage where you have multiple storage nodes and multiple storage devices on each. It's way too heavy and resource intensive for a single machine with loopback devices.

I've done some preliminary testing with garage and I was pleasantly surprised. It worked as expected and didn't run into any gotchas.

by dardeaup 10mo ago
Hopefully no one is shocked or surprised.

Agreed. I'd say it goes much deeper than that in the case of FreeBSD though. It's just an ideological thing that can't be changed.

Type safety as a benefit of SQLite? For me type safety is a negative of SQLite. Being able to store a different type that what the column is declared to store is a bug (not a feature). I also find the lack of DATE and DATETIME/TIMESTAM

Does IUP have a table control? I looked at the IUP website and didn't see one.
