MonoGame is a rather shallow abstraction over DX9/10 era APIs, I don't think it's fair to say it "takes care" of much beyond wrapping some platform dependent code. The content pipeline in particular ranges from pain

Most of those screens below 1080 aren't old monitors, they're budget laptop screens, specially 1366x768.

Reminds me of a mistake in Spanish in a TomTom device I have around: "AP" stands for autopista (motorway) but it reads "AP" aloud as apartado postal (PO box).

Except these kind of guides have been available for over 15 years. Maybe now it'll be harder to find the genuine ones, though.

Oh, right, on the readme! That's so weird, because it kinda contradicts the "general conditions for use" document. I guess they mean the source code is ok to use but you must alter the design first? The UK's doesn't

This is wrong, the GPLv3 only requires installation information for "User Products" (as defined in the license) which the manufacturer can update even if the user can't. Most medical equipment isn't User Products and can

Oh that I fully agree; sorry, I was only thinking cookies. I too have got Android devices with built-in crapware that ask for permissions and ad tracking again and again because I keep tapping "no". Chinese brands are the worst at

LLM inference takes up some scarce GPU time and many people are trying to use free entrypoints to build services instead of the intended paid APIs, so I understand why those services want to put limits on usage. Programming playgrounds howe

The risk is not "I don't have a license because public domain doesn't exist", the risk is "the rights I have are revokable on a whim because they haven't properly waived their right to do so". SQLite has a

It certainly does in Spain. We even extended it to videogames, although I don't know how much that achieves when so many games are barely playable before the first few patches, have much of their content released in future updates and

AFAIK the vast majority of ML training/inference on the GPU runs on CUDA, and has done so for many years, while other vendor-specific GPU backends are slowly gaining support. It doesn't help that AMD's equivalent open toolcha

How is this significantly different from n-1 streams coming from a single peer/server connection? Isn't that simply what it takes to have a group video call?

Yes it can be, with the viewport meta tag. I've also seen some web apps, mostly maps, whose CSS or JS tries to resist browser zoom in ways that break the layout or make them unusable. Plus, overriding the zoom gestures makes it really

by debugnik 3y ago
No, they benefit from overriding the pinch gesture or the scroll wheel. Browser zoom shouldn't need to be a casualty for those features to work, it ought to stay available in some form.

I know, inherited from OCaml. I was talking more about which metaphors to push for instead, rather than any actual data structure.

Well, most people learn about variables [1] before variables [2], so I find it funny that you think of the mutable ones as English. Mutable variables are better explained as slots or cells, I think. Both OCaml and Rust have a concept of ref
