Detectors can clearly identify the exact issues. So, what are those issues here? We know, but we don't want to tell our cash-paying customers.

It was written in the AGENTS.md, but Claude only read CLAUDE.md. That is how the man-vs-machine war started.

I work on the IUP fork, where I have and support the Qt driver, which works with both Qt5 and Qt6, and I only need a couple of checks to make it work on both. I often check if I broke the Qt5 build; nope, all good there, hard to break. For

I am working on the IUP fork (UI toolkit) , with many new drivers/backends and features, and, of course, I added Haiku because it looks and performs so well, it works differently from what I used to see, making it even more interesting

My first association when someone mentions Matrox is MPlayer and mga_vid kernel module. I had G200, and hardware YUV acceleration worked perfectly. Direct access to hardware from MPlayer, it worked very nice, in console with `-vo mga` and i

I heard this repeated many times. You can create closed-source Qt apps without paying any money. You cannot statically link, though; you must obey the LGPL license; that is all. And yes, you cannot use commercial modules, but that is kinda

Sure, you need to wrap it in C, but there is also `cfltk` that is maintained and used in Rust bindings. Btw., the difference in memory usage is huge with GTK4. FLTK hello world is ~10M, GTK3 is ~15M, GTK4 is 40M! With Cairo rendering, it&#x

Nice, I just use lxqt-openssh-askpass, but I am on X11. A lighter alternative (for single-text input) would be FLTK. Version 1.4 is really nice, with Wayland support, and they even draw custom window decorations on GNOME. Both Cairo and FLT

Why not fix all the issues with private jets and yachts first? Why don't they use regular public transportation as we all do? Instead, let's bash poor Clanker, who reviews kernel code.

Well, AI or not, it is interesting to see Swift and Flutter without Dart. But is SNI Tray there? I see something in the top-right corner of that panel, but I'm not sure what it is.

Yes, and you need an army of people to "wrap" WebKit just like that. E.g., the WebKit port on Haiku, of course, is not in good shape because it has more code than the whole of their OS. EFL once had a WebBrowser control/compo

I would like to see a similar project that fixes Wayland. Like, can someone vibe-code window positioning, add SSD to GNOME (damage was already done, but still), and add the ability to send events so you can automate and drive the app offscr

On my device, bars grow as I scroll. I want your feature, being able to just scroll the static page without elements jumping around.

I did something similar with `go bind`, a library used on both desktop and Android, they simply exchanged JSON, though not on millions of devices. However, today I have a nice cross-platform UI library with native controls, based on IUP, wh

Who enables CGO just for DNS resolution? That is not a thing for a long time, you just reminded me of that. Sure, if you have some complex config instead of a simple default, you would want to use libc and getaddrinfo, that is on you. What

So, "security" strikes again. Windows shell not be moved, pointers shell not be clicked, but you can move the mouse if you want to.

What about wp_pointer_warp_v1? That should be supported in some compositors. But not sure how to actually "send" the click event. I often try a session with Labwc/LxQt instead of my Openbox/LxQt, and while there is progr

I am guessing wp_pointer_warp_v1 in Wayland, but not sure if all compositors support that. And that is just for moving the cursor. Can we "send" a wl_pointer click like that?

I have a nice setup on my Linux for iOS apps. I compiled the OSXCross toolchain, and also copied iPhoneOS.sdk and iPhoneSimulator.sdk from the macOS VM. With some wrappers, I can compile iOS apps (Obj-C) on my Linux machine, sign them with

100% of the employers I worked for (one employee) never did that switch. The license did not affect us; we had nothing to do with AWS and the like, so we just continued using Redis like before. We already had our RPM builds, so whatever cou

What does "scale"even mean in UI context? 10 or 100 controls in app makes difference how exactly? Retained apps redraw when needed, they are idle most of the times. How redrawing every frame helps to scale?

Disaster. Well, I read stories about Rust and how there isn't much in the stdlib, but this is just too much. How many dependencies are there, on average, in other projects? I guess I am spoiled with Go.

But this is also just silly. The maintainer here did nothing (just a little chat here and there), but is sure that only optimizations are missing for this to be production-ready. How so, based on what exactly?

Does alacritty have, and/or work on a library that is reusable in other projects? If not, there is that to start.

How about something like this https://github.com/gen2brain/iup-go ? Still not released, but I plan to clean all todos in the next few weeks.
