It didn't say GPL. There was a long section describing code of certain kind, which was a long-winded description for the rules of copyleft, and then a reference to that type (call it X) which may not be fed into MSVC. Like I said this

Is it purely header files and this is commonplace at game studios that use C++? Edit: What I mean is that the implementation of C++ classes seems to be in header files and I'm wondering if this is a common way to do things at game stud

If you read the Visual Studio EULA, which I did when the first Visual Studio .Net version came out, it described in a long and complicated text a certain type of software which you aren't allowed to compile with it. I don't know i

If John hasn't changed and Oculus is true to their intention of why and how they brought him onboard (or how the public has been told), I sure hope John's voice would be instrumental in resolving this debacle quickly.

That's the problem. If Windows was more like Linux or BSD, you could take the good parts and omit the bad parts. They're doing genuinely good and - for mainstream desktop systems - innovative stuff in the kernel and surrounding su

The same happened in Germany where the BND (German NSA) destroyed evidence, most likely because of obligations to allies like NSA. Then the state safety agency (Staatsschutz), something like the secret service to uphold the constitution, de

Targeting musl works out of the box with the musl toolchain and once you have a musl build you can build another ghc with that one with musl as the host. I haven't tried building a statically linked musl ghc, and I honestly don't

I can't say I remember a building in Western Europe where traffic signs were mounted on buildings. In cities it's either on or at the edge of sidewalks.

I've read the lyrics and don't have the cultural background to get everything. I couldn't find anything racist in it and don't think it was supposed to. Is that correct? I'm asking because you mentioned it in this c

One example: 3.2.8, the second code box about hsc2hs. HTML of the same section is fine. There must be a way to fix this in the pipeline. I mean, you cannot find each and all and try to manually adjust the text.

The new Sphinx based documentation has many code sample boxes where the content overflows and the rectange is smaller than the text which doesn't fit into the rendered HTML/PDF. Is this a common issue with Sphinx?

Actually there are people who are looking exactly for items like that to buy. For them the price is more important than anything else. It wouldn't be many, that's true, but it would cover the costs and make a profit.

But it's more useful to the ecosystem as an unmaintained code dump than being kept closed. If there's interest, someone will pick it up partially or fork it. In the worst unmaintained, unused case, it's still potentially valu

Gratuitous use of background videos, large JS, large CSS, many fonts, and so on degraded the desktop web performance as well. It's not a mobile-only problem. Compare scrolling on HN with scrolling on a random startup page and consider

Re Gmail: the bug is that they replaced the browser text box edit control with their homegrown JavaScript solution which does not work at all. Copy/Past, scrolling, and many other features are broken with it. On top of that, you cannot

I have to use Gmail in static HTML mode so that it doesn't try to reinvent and fail at a text edit control for composing a mail. GitHub has been, like Twitter, grabbing more key bindings that existed before in a web browser like Ctrl-K

I can understand why the author interfaced with the Gtk API and also why they thought Gtk3 is the right version, but Gtk3 - even at 3.20 - is full of regressions, slow-downs and major themeing obstacles and breakage. Therefore, I wish Qt wo

But that's not what I'm suggesting. We can begin by actually reviving browser user style sheets and having a well known and respected sets of names will allow for appropriate styling on the client.

It's not just security, the other half is usability. The way popular web sites work is that they change stuff around regularly only to make it look different but change the behavior as well. This breaks stuff like existing functionalit

Of course you're right, and I didn't mention CSS but thought of it as another utilitarian piece. I agree that the most complex parts are HTML+CSS+JS+DOM+GFX, but some parts cannot be reasonably disabled without breaking it complet

Fonts are different in that they're not as crucial to the content as images. You cannot replace an image with an alternative text form while retaining the content, but you can display the content completely with WOFF missing.
