Combining a projector with a touchscreen and Android. Sounds like a bad idea until you see the person cooking while scrolling through a recipe on the counter.

Yes besides I would drop all of them. I've been mulling over lately how tired I am of dealing with their behavior: Spying on me, Removing features I need, Dropping support for hardware I use, Anti-user defaults, User lock-in schemes, I

Well as long as you can still install Linux on a server or hobby board there will be some vestige of general purpose computing.

This work pretty well on my phone. Like the touch controls almost make it convenient to play without a gamepad. They just need to fix the issue of the browser highjacking touch inputs and add fullscreen support.

Just want to point out that's there is a really old issue for this: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=113111 It's been assigned to some unknown person since 2015. Though I'm

Question for those of you who are game programmers. Is the message passing of erlang slower than shared memory threads in c++?

Not only do people in tech misuse the term but they put way too much weight on innovation. Every company innovates. Innovation is not a synonym for revolution. No one buys innovation. NES was just a box to play Mario. Wii was just a box to

It's important to understand that some business decisions aren't based off of money. Sometimes they are based on the emotions of the people working at the company. Like a TV network cancelling a series with good ratings because an

Actually I have a old phone right now that I've factory reset and have no Google account set up on. I've still managed to install a few APKs I've downloaded via Chrome (for Android). One time I had to download one with my lap

I'd like a small Editor that had autocomplete/follow function etc. for C++. So far Qt Creator is fine but it's hit or miss to get those features working right on each system and it's missing a call tree. Plus, it's

Like you said it's dead. Hypotheticals don't matter here only real tools we can use today.

Java doesn't support compiling C/C++ to their runtime. So that's not really comparable to this.

Emscripten is a cross-compiler tool chain. This is a back end for a compiler. Currently Emscripten uses a fork of Clang/LLVM called fastcomp with a ASM.js backend. This is a fork of GCC/Binutils with a WebAssembly and ASM.js backe

Also it only works for Samsung and Apple. As they are the only ones who actually profit from phones.

That makes a lot of sense. I believe JavaScript already has the same limitation.

Wear 2 is a step in the right direction. With a keyboard and support for standalone features like calling and texting (using build in LTE) and Google Play. Still it would be nice to completely remove the requirement to pair with a phone at

I can't wait to read flohofwoe's thoughts on WebGPU.

by bobajeff 10y ago
Oh. I didn't know that.

by bobajeff 10y ago
This brings another question. Would it be better given the likely use cases for WebGPU to be designed as a WebAssembly only API?
808.
by bobajeff 10y ago
Thanks that helps me understand better. I'd like to see a more detailed comparison of WebGPU/Metal/Vulkan in terms of their level of abstractions.
809.
by bobajeff 10y ago
So if it higher level than Vulkan where does it fit in with WebGL? I mean can't you pretty much already use low level GPU tech like Vertex Buffers and Shaders already?

by bobajeff 10y ago
You misunderstand. I wasn't asking what it's called. I was asking if the idea here is a Vulkan like API for the web.
