Will this mean they yet again throw away their component library for Shopify apps and make everyone migrate AGAIN?

The article says LibreOffice is almost 20 years old. Well, before it was LibreOffice it was OpenOffice in 2000 and before it was OpenOffice it was StarOffice and StarWriter originates in 1985. So you could say it (or the Writer component) i

Even before I read this blog post only the way he behaved on The Standup made me suspicious, raised some red flags.

I'm so disappointed that The Standup was platforming him.

I'm not really against such special symbols, only if they are too much, like in Perl. ~ and @ weren't replaced by anything with ::, though, ~Foo is Box<Foo> and @Foo is Rc<Foo> (or is it Arc<Foo>?). :: to access

Early Rust had ~ and @ references.

What's the public transport of software development? Where can I get good train service here?

Out of the things you mentioned I think the following make totally sense to be included in a language runtime like this: JavaScript runtime (obviously), package manager, test runner for unit tests, bundler, JSX, SQLite bindings, formatter,

Just looked it up, that Apple license is indeed approved as open source/free software by the FSF and OSI!

I don't condemn the protocol. I specifically mention the buggy implementation. I say that I use X11 because KDE's Wayland implementation is so buggy. I want to use KDE. KDE was perfect for me before Wayland. I don't criticize

by panzi 28d ago
Yeah, but it works under KDE+X11. Wayland it the thing that changes. I think KDE has it's own Wayland implementation? kwin_wayland is what is broken, probably. Why they broke it when porting it from X11 I don't know. But the effec

None of that matters if you don't have a HDR monitor, only have one monitor, and when absolute basics of window management are somehow broken under KDE Wayland. Why that even has anything to do with Wayland I don't know. I just kn

by panzi 28d ago
Yeah, I still use KDE with X11 because they somehow messed up their window management with Wayland. My problems aren't even about rendering or any those features, but for some reason kwin_wayland's window management is very buggy.

No other language that does what? Have out parameters? Many have that, even Pascal.

.env is another "simple" format that turns out to be actually a whole family of languages where each handles corner cases differently. And usually implementations quietly do nonsense on malformed input. Some even have command inje

The setup cost is basically zero anyway. Add apt repo, apt-get install the correct version. Easy to run different versions at the same time too. Upgrading is annoying.

It's something! I propose that the first 4 of those characters should in English be called Blinky, Pinky, Inky, and Clyde.

Interesting. I guess there are no well working normalization functions as there are for the different code points that can make umlauts (äöü)?

by panzi 1mo ago
Is anyone using these characters now for anything? No youth language or online slang using it?

What's wrong with using the title attribute for accessibility?

Also it's a different story intranationally for those of us who live in countries with much more restrictive/no fair use. Are you geolocking your software to the USA?

Yeah, or people/websites calling short looping MPEG4 videos (even with audio) GIFs.

Things that I noticed when I had a look at it: Atom supports multiple authors, RSS doesn't. Some say just separate them with commas, but readers don't understand that and it's all broken. Also Atom supports archive links for

Not just when it reproduces code. Since fair use doesn't exist like that in a lot of countries the question is if the training itself is a violation. Are there e.g. EU or Japanese rulings on that?

by panzi 2mo ago
Yes, and JavaScript itself is JITed. I used interpreted here as a shorthand for interpreted and/or JIT compiled at runtime.

I love the discoverability of blender in the sense that I can hit space and start typing the name of the thing I want to do and run it from there while it shows me in what menu I could find it and what shortcut to use. And next space it rem

Either it is only accepting a subset of TypeScript, or it is still interpreting the parts that don't have enough types. Given other comments here it sounds like the later.
