Been away from React from two years and this stuff is all-new to me. Maybe I'll wait another few years for it to settle down before looking again...

With your expectations firmly set to "silent film era," Nosferatu is very entertaining and goes by remarkably quick. What helps is there's so much to look at in nearly every frame, you're rarely bored visually. The other

Wish I could say I was rushing back but other podcasts have filled in during the 2 years they've been gone. That's just my personal experience, though.

My layman's take is that it seems very similar to Log4j's vulnerability, but I don't really know for sure.

As someone who recently began producing 2D animation, it seems like 2D has only gotten more rare and expensive as 3D/CG animation continues to proliferate. But could be a "grass is always greener" thing.

Good. If Lego won't evolve, they'll die. I'm glad Lego is still around and thriving, as that didn't always seem like it would be the case (from my personal experience as a kid).

I opted to upgrade to Fedora instead. Honestly. I've been pretty happy. Whatever remaining faith I had in MS's stewardship of Windows was lost with 11. Which is a shame, because over the years I generally preferred them to Apple -

Hello World in GTK[0] and Qt[1] is simpler than the OP's experience. Gnome includes Gnome Builder[2] in most distributions, which makes it incredibly easy to start making Gnome/GTK apps. Developers can also leverage Flatpak and Fl

When there's 1,000 happy customers and 1 unhappy one, what's the incentive to fix anything? Not being facetious, just pointing out the depressing nature of our reality. :/

I don't disagree with this comment, but it's worth noting Chrome was already rising to dominance as a desktop browser before Android/mobile internet usage became a significant factor. Somehow even with Microsoft promoting IE

I used it from 2012-2015 on my main machine, and now after a mix of Windows, macOS and Chrome OS, I'm back to Fedora as of this week. I enjoy Fedora but I really like Gnome. It was also the only real option for me given Ubuntu's c

This has annoyed me going back to Silverlight. They really just don't care users have to install extra things to get your program working. First-party toolkit stuff like this should be built into the OS.
