If you have a database that supports SQLMED, you can probably already query outward table data without loading/serialising between formats. You can even optionally generate an index on some systems. MariaDB has the Connect Engine, Post

I just now tried again and it works. Maybe it was just bandwidth or they fixed something. Both?

On Edge and Safari it's just an interface over a black screen. For a video game to reach a wider audience, should this not be a little more compatible with us boring old vanilla users?

The best follow ups by far were Avid Matador and Discreet Combustion. Avid bundled Matador (and FXTree) into Softimage, which Autodesk later absorbed and killed off. Discreet were also assimilated by Autodesk, and Combustion was later kille

I don’t think it’s a coincidence that after reading BASIC article on the currently front page; I went and downloaded freepascal. I will give Lazarus a go later on if I get into pascal again.

MariaDB and PostgreSQL. Amazing software that is open source for us to dive in and play with. FoundationDB was a recent treat.

I am genuinely curious, how much ops is hand written in just plain old bash or simple scripts?

I use sbcl and chezscheme on windows 10. My editor of choice is Sublime Text with the SublimeRepl and Parinfer plugins.

Something similar existed years ago with ME10 running on HPUX. Many similar things existed. Workflows centrally hosted, on site, with terminals or workstation clients. Literally many engineers could work on a single drawing or design and in

It feels so inhuman. Like everything google, there are no names, no faces, no citations. Just walls of information and puzzles. Khanacademy has gone a similar direction; they have removed the human element from learning and are not hiding t

I started to work as a teenager around 2001; my bedroom was an Amiga and SGI graveyard. It got quite hot in there.

Tons of pushback. But at the end of the day, the people who moan don't manage the databases. I stick with that is available in centos+EPEL, which includes sbcl, and use ODBC for most of my work. The common tooling for open source datab

Just like Erlang, my favourite feature of picolisp is the built-in database format: https://software-lab.de/doc/ref.html#dbase Discloure: I am a DBA. And a Lisp addict. The database tutorial: https://softwar

My 2 cents from the trenches back in 2004 and the LAMP stacks boomed; replication. It’s really really super simple. And the binlog format is open! The commercial and open source options at the time, were painful to scale. Go ask an amazon e

I have fond memories of playing with 6.0 Alpha and the Falcon engine. And my favourite feature, the "BACKUP" command. Shame.

It's the same story for Doom 3 engine / id-tech4. The most active fork I think is still Dhewm3, which includes some modern useful changes for compiling. * https://github.com/id-Software/DOOM-3 * https:/

Will there be another kickstarter in the future for Windows 11? EDIT: From the KS page, "A Word to Mac Users" This does not lead me to believe it's going to be something like an SDL2 port but a one off port. I hope I can be p

Nobody was specific but the cycles renderer and the compositor+editor were mentioned a lot.

Before they went bust, some folks at Rhythm 'N Hues publicly talked about using it. It has pockets of usage at ILM, there are lots of software pockets though in these big design firms. Not all bitmap and vector tools are Adobe. Unreal

That's just dandy. Show me software that uses it. This is 2005 all over again. You make that deal. You talk to that support. You prove me wrong, please do! The better support, debuggers, and feature requests will come from the native A

Apple doesn't count? did you RTFA? It's all about apple and proprietary graphics API's. Apple Metal launched in 2014. Sony and Nintendo and NEVER used OpenGL for anything extensive. Sony talked the talk around 2005 and 2006 w

Apple, Nintendo, Microsoft, and Sony have great API's that are not opengl or vulkan. I am not saying opengl or vulkan is bad.

It's not just Apple. This is what everyone forgets. It's Microsoft, Apple, Sony and Nintendo. Every big vendor and platform for 3D games and software, has their own graphics API which work better and faster than OpenGL and Vulkan.

I am always bitterly disappointed in HN's views and understanding of graphic API's. HN, what I largely assume is a community of programmers. Not Khronos idealists. The OpenGL dream died long ago. I think we can thank CAD and GPU v
