The most honest answer is that studios can't extend the software without violating the GPL. Maya is outrageously extensible in a variety of ways and really set the standard for being "open" in this way. A lot of the big studi

My comment was in reference to using native toolkits from a language other than C++ and not the status of using native toolkits in general. <friendly-joke>I have a hard time believing that you've been using native UI toolkits usi

The trouble though comes about once you have to start working with a UI library. It's a mess and a half unless you use C++. I'd like to try using Elm, or Purescript for UI work using atom-shell or nw.js. That opens almost the same

Been super happy with my Galago UltraPro as well. Only reason I haven't tried FreeBSD on it yet is because of the Haswellian chipset within

This has been what I've been worried about during all of this. I'm not entirely sure why Germany has to be "damned if they do and damned if they don't". It's as if people forget that the country has had to lear

My limited understanding is that this help came with a lot of stipulations as to how the money was to be used and these stipulations were enormously unpopular. Personally, I can find some understanding of both sides to this. On one hand, if

This is my first thought every time I see a Buddha used as a charming icon for something.

Virtual desktops are so amazingly useful that it's hard to imagine why a tiling WM wouldn't adopt them.

TMUX is a transferable implementation of terminal session and "tab" organization. It's also scriptable if you aren't happy with some aspect of it's default presentation or interaction. For me, that is enormously val

Using two monitors on Linux and running XMonad changed the game for me. Very organized, productive and efficient interactions with the system grew organically out of it. Even though I tend to use KDE (and KWin) these days on a laptop, that

I close the browser tab immediately when an ad starts or hit the back button on my phone. I'd love to be able to support content creators without subjecting my mind to advertisements. Hopefully they find a solution to the issues you&#x

Bob Ross was a national treasure who dedicated his life to helping others see that it is wonderful to make or create for the sake of it. Anyone I've met who thinks he's a joke have been illustrators who hadn't yet come to ter

I started hacking together a plugin based on sbt-purescript. I could make a repo on github if you're interested in working together. My biggest stumbling blocks are that I don't know much about working with Dart and I've neve

I noticed that ARM binaries aren't yet provided. Does this just mean they haven't gotten around to it yet or that ARM isn't suitable for production at this time? I'd really like to experiment with SBCL on the beaglebone.

This just makes me reconsider spending any time with it at this point.

The only shame with Qt and C++ is the difficulty of providing bindings for other languages. It's just such an immense set of libraries to wrap by hand. You also have to duplicate the work of moc.

There is actually a great deal of C++ in libGDX.

For me it's about not paying for ads and being able to watch an episode on my schedule. I'd rather pay the same for the 20 shows I actually watch and see them without commercial interruption after I've put the kids to bed,

I understand your point but the goal here is to get a better Blender and hopefully a successful demonstration of a new production model. These are the artifacts that tie into the world and hopefully that would mean you would see more entert

I was an early backer as well. The controller really ruined the whole thing for me. After all the hype it was such a let down. I lost faith in anything else they could provide even though I do enjoy a couple games on the system.

This is precisely why I haven't purchased several otherwise very nice looking Linux laptops.
