I personally just switched to using push descriptors everywhere. On desktops, the real world limits are high enough that it end up working out fine and you get a nice immediate mode API like OpenGL.

Back when I was on Android, there used to be a launcher by Nokia called Z Launcher. The idea was simple: the home screen could only show the six apps. However, you could draw a letter on the home screen with your finger, and it would be rec

I didn't know there was a schism in Racket. Is this about the CS vs BC backend? I thought that was water under the bridge.

I always wonder why SQLite didn't expose a programmatic way for creating a query (as opposed to parsing SQL statements). Given that it was designed to be embedded, it seems to me that it would have made far more sense to provide an API

Why is 'Differences between Collabora Office and Collabora Office Classic' document gated behind a email-wall? Nothing but enshittification. https://www.collaboraonline.com/case-studies/differences-bet...

Is there a SLIME-equivalent to achieve REPL driven programming for applications with s7 embedded in them?

What is the revenue model for Tangled? This is why ATProto stuff worries me, the AppView is expensive to host and no one has created a paid service yet to achieve sustainability.

Mine was also managed by Fastmail. And no one else has ever had a problem with it (including Apple when I added it after signing up).

I had a similar issue when I first brought my iPad. Turns out, Apple doesn't like custom domains for emails. So, I had to make an Apple account with a Gmail account, then remove the Gmail account and add my email address with the custo

Yeah, the downvotes were expected. Developers do not like being called out for the miserly and self-destructive bunch that we are. I was building an advance IDE for C and gave up when I realised that no one would buy it because "lol vi

I agree. When people bemoan the death of lisp machines and RAD and whatnot, remember that we deserve it. We do not want to invest in good tools and treat "Worse is Better" as some twisted virtue, and then wonder why everything suc

Which server was the most compliant? I have been using Radicale for a while, but would like to know if that is not a good choice.

It seems that most research effort goes into better dtoa, and not enough in a better atod. There are probably a dozen dtoa algorithms now, and (I think?) two for atod. Anyone know why?

Can the metadata feature be used to ergonomically emulate HTML attributes? It's not clear from the docs, and the spec doesn't seem to document the feature at all.

SDL GPU doesn't properly support Android anyways due to driver issues, and I doubt anyone's playing games on enterprise workstations.
106.
by HexDecOctBin 11mo ago
SDL GPU is extremely disappointing in that it follows the Vulkan 1.0 model of static pipelines and rigid workflows. Using Vulkan 1.3 with a few extensions is actually far more ergonomic beyond a basic "Hello, World" than using SDL

Well, with the death of Xbox and release of raddebugger, maybe supporting VS/MSVC just isn't that important anymore. Good riddance.
108.
by HexDecOctBin 11mo ago
The article clearly states that the code only works on GCC and Clang, which leaves MSVC. Not sure how the question was random.

by HexDecOctBin 11mo ago
Any hopes that MSVC will add C23 support before 2040?

1. Is there any plans for native mobile apps? 2. Which data sources (banks, UPI wallets, etc.) are supported as import source?

This is disappointing. I can write the networking parts in Rust and the rest of the program in C, but apparently can't do the same with Fil-C.
112.
by HexDecOctBin 11mo ago
Can a program be written only partially in Fil-C? That is to say, can we link regular C and Fil+C object files in a single executable?
113.
by HexDecOctBin 11mo ago
Not for me. Maybe some misconfiguration on my part then.

Hard to parse the networking jargon, but does this enable offline connections? If I have two devices on my local LAN (both connected to a Tailnet) and my home internet goes, currently the devices disconnect from each other. I have been look

Yes, I agree. Which is why you should convince your politicians to forget about puny worthless India and focus all their antagonism towards the great mighty China only. Thank you.
