Interesting. Is there a similar micro- or nano- web framework like this but in C?

Engineers are under more pressure to cut costs than make things long lasting. Imagine if businesses were in control of evolution.

It doesn't seem like it would take much to make Earth inhabitable for us humans. Like if we wanted to we can do it pretty quickly using primitive methods. It's a very delicate system and we're completely reliant on it. So it

I like Fluxbox, it's really simple and doesn't get in your way.

Why do you think it's not rare? Something can be predictable and rare.

This seems like great news. Managing software through one distro supported interface is less mental burden on me, the user. For developers, it's more work, I get that.

I'm not usually the one that first sees resumes. It is true I have the luxury of seeing pre-screened candidates. I don't know what the filter criteria are but I've seen candidates with worse things than employment gaps. I mos

I've never been a hiring manager but I've interviewed maybe a couple dozen engineers over the years, of all experience levels. I've never once considered an employment gap in and of itself a deal breaker. Sometimes I've

These are all low end devices at this point. Lattice seems to be the number one low end FPGA vendor now. At least in the US. https://www.latticesemi.com/ Keeping an eye on Gowin and Efinix as well. https://www.go

This statement got me thinking. How do you mean? I wonder if you're thinking what I'm thinking.

In terms of foundations and principles Haiku OS is more of a coherent platform that anything on the Linux desktop attests to be at the moment. In terms practicality, hardware support and a size of software ecosystem it is still very minor c

I don't believe Framework's products are comparable to MNT's Reform. The Framework is mass produced. The Reform isn't, as far as I can tell. But there are other major differences, of course. The framework is designed to

How did you find working on this outside of a class context? What did you do when you got stuck or had questions?

There is no competition. I'm not an economist but a monopoly is not a free market in my view.

Oops, I mean't I DON'T understand the benfits of Flatpacks. Why do I need multiple ways to do the same thing? Do I have to worry about conflicts between Flatpaks and distro packages?

Looks like there's a new edition in the works to cover C23. That could be useful indeed.

As a user, I understand the benefit of Flatpak/Flathub or Snaps. I like doing 'apt install whatever' or 'apt remove whatever'.

This is amazing. I have some broken blinds I've been putting off fixing because I was afraid of what a time sink it would be.

Maybe they care more about breaking library code than user code? Not saying I agree but maybe that explains some of their decisions. I don't know if changing the realloc() NULL behavior to undefined necessarily breaks code. It definite
