AFNetworking seems to still have too much in the way for my taste, but maybe i'm missing something. Couple of questions: If i want to generate url requests, i have to use a serializer class. For me, it seems like overkill to have a sta

Still too complicated. IMO none these libraries should hide NSMutableURLRequest. A lot of their functionality can and should just be exposed as category extensions to NSMutableURLRequest and a bag of utility functions. We should expose comp

Agreed, application-level tab support is a short term win. I wouldn't want to use a browser without them, but i would rather it was all a well thought out part of my main interface.

So if you write core software for an architecture without privsep you must not call it a kernel?

by nwg 12y ago
It's a statically linked program, real memory, diskless system, kernel-mode-only kernel without too much fluff in the video i/o abstraction.

Things get even more exciting when you want to push that submodule commit afterwards to fix things, only to find out that someone sneaked in a commit in the meantime! Now you’ll have to create a new commit on the top-level project to point

I set a one hour timer on my phone. The agreement with myself is that i will not stand up, not open a browser for something unrelated, not go to the bathroom, not speak to anyone, not listen to anyone, not do anything but focus on the one t

My hobby OS is x86_64 only, straight C. It's GPLv3. I wrote it with the intention of writing a tutorial, partly because of this void, but still have not written the tutorial :) https://github.com/nwg/nanos x86_64

Does soylent contain actual soy or not? If not is it still going to affect estrogen like soy? What are the actual facts on excess soy (or anything in its makeup that's included in soylent) and estrogen? What are any hormonal changes th

I feel like i have to read period-ridden marketing in a really dramatic way. In my head. And if i'm not doing that, then i just have ideas. Separated.

There was something similar to this about two weeks ago here, with vars and lambdas in c99. It was less of a full blown language and more just functions and preprocessor definitions to be used in C. I am having trouble finding it now. Does

Does anyone know, or can anyone speculate on exactly how the "heterogenous payloads" are specified?
