probably gets better with use but having to remember not to put a loop as the last statement of a function, because it would make it return an array of the last statement of the loop body, caught me off guard enough times to get annoying. e

You can definitely use ReleaseSafe, you can also switch modes during compilation. so you can call '@setRuntimeSafety(false)' at the start of a scope to disable runtime safety for performance critical sections.

while we're wishing for impossible things i'd also love if the consent dialogs were an actual standard. if sites could describe a list of what they needed consent for and the browser supplied the actual dialog, so i could just con

You can get a good quality SLA printer for $200-300, and you can buy FDM printers for tens of thousands of dollars. Just depends on what audience they're targeting.

From what I've seen that's kind of overselling it, his own family hasn't claimed that he said that, an anonymous person who claimed to be a friend of his did. But I may have missed any further developments to actually verify

Back around 2002 at least there were some products, ABCpdf is one I used a lot, which ran Internet Explorer on the server to generate PDFs from HTML. Worked pretty well from what I recall.

the phone is likely linked to an apple account. seems reasonable that if the components are approved for a specific phone and that phone is linked to an icloud account, that account could permit a swap?

I've had some luck with Hyprland (after following https://wiki.hyprland.org/Nvidia/ ) but it does take some hacks, and I'd imagine results will vary.

For me, Rusts SQLx has been a good option for this. Write plain SQL with a macro and have it verified against a dev database at build time, optionally to a typed anonymous struct to match your query results. The performance isn't incre

There is https://ziglang.org/documentation/master/std but it's not always been correct, and the descriptions are lacking. The new one should hopefully fix that. Personally I've never had an issue reading

I had the exact same experience commenting on that Tom Sparks video, so my guess is that you're right about the echo chamber.

It's true the NES has 2 KiB built-in RAM, but a cartridge can provide its own RAM. Some of the later cartridges (MMC5 for example) supported up to 128 KiB of extended RAM. There's not really any limit to how far you could push tha

Not so sure about any real IDEs, lldb has worked fine for the (fairly small) zig programs I've worked on and the "CodeLLDB" vscode extension worked. Of course with the move from LLVM i assume lldb will stop working, and vscod

I would say in something like speedrunning there is tons of information that only exists in discord pinned threads etc., and in the combined heads of community members. To those who care about that hobby a lot of very useful information wou

So the analysis was of UA, but they noted that GA4 may not fix the issues: "We have received several questions about whether, hypothetically speaking, we would move towards a different conclusion with Google Analytics 4. The Norwegian

There was Narwhal, which was on Rhino and had a package manager (CommonJS as well.) But it got overtaken by Node pretty quickly.

They did use the original source, the All Stars source is included in the recent leaks of Nintendo software.. You can see a lot of the original code and see what they changed. It seemed when I glanced at it that the SNES developers used a d

Yeah on original NES/SNES controllers the rocker physically prevented this. I was mostly referring to some third party controllers like say the 'hitbox' which go through an input cleaner before sending it to the system. The w

This is generally handled by an input cleaner, either in the controller itself if you hook it up to an original system, or via an emulator if you're using one. In the case of SMB1 L+R is disallowed (and it does give some in game time a

I believe the idea is if you wanted a client built with C# Winforms, wxWidgets, JS+HTML or anything else they could all run against the same backend server.. So it'd be more flexible than Electron in that you wouldn't need to use

I also have a virtualbox Win95 that I only use for Mordor! It had a great mindless grind sort of appeal.. and the music still gets itself stuck in my head.
