> Zenroom is programmable in the no-code English-like language Zencode. Isn't that just code? Where do people draw the line between no-code and code?

100M+ lines of code isn't a hyperbole for some codebases, though. google3 is estimated at about 2 billion lines of code, for example. Maybe it was hyperbole. But if it was it wasn't obvious to me, unfortunately.

It’s a reasonable question but I doubt it. We weren’t affluent at all and I worked my butt off for everything. And that’s good, because I agree that if things are too easy it turns into a curse.

Reading the FAQ it doesn't seem to bad. The Indie license allows you to run it simultaneously on 2 machines and the Studio license increases that to 4. You can transfer installations to new computers (or the same computer if doing a re

I've never heard of Typical but the fact they didn't repeat protobuf's sin regarding varint encoding (or use leb128 encoding...) makes me very interested! Thank you for sharing, I'm going to have to give it a spin.

The FFmpeg culture is… very different. It’s hard to explain. But one hard requirement they had is that they did not want to give someone else control over their infrastructure. And it had to be open source. Only self hosting options were co

It fulfills the same role as C and C++'s void type. I don't think most systems programmers care about type theorist bikeshedding about purity with formal theory. A ton of people coming to Zig are going to be coming from C and C++.

This is a better link: https://gamersnexus.net/gpus/nvidia-selling-lies-rtx-5070-fo... It's about the RTX 5070 but the criticisms still hold for the RTX 5050 since Nvidia is still doing the same shenanigans.
