Nucleic also makes Kiwi one of the fastest Cassowary Constraint implementations. It is very useful for implementing custom GUIs as it can make building internal component layouts and general layout systems fairly straightforward and it’s ve

I have not been able to get excited about WASM due to the poor memory management situation. It’s been years since the MVP and we are still in limbo about freeing memory. A great issue documenting a lot of the pain points around this is her

I'm working on a native wrapper for SWT with GraalVM. The resulting library with base SWT is about 18M, which is fairly large, but definitely workable. I have successfully used the wrapper from C and Zig as a proof of concept. The mai

I know in parts of the US there are community colleges starting to offer Bachelor's Degrees. I wonder how much that will add to the cost of those schools. Hopefully it will lower the barrier of entry for thousands of students. Also I a

As far as I am aware the water content reducing flavor is a myth. For fruits and vegtables it comes down to ripening and temperature control. The majority of fruit we purchase from the super market is picked far before it's rip and is

The performance is bad across Linux and Windows. Digital foundry did a decent review on it[1]. In certain areas a friend's rig with an 11th gen i7 and rtx 3070 is dipping down to mid 30 fps in certain areas on Windows 10 with "hi

Has anyone tried mold[1] with Free Pascal yet? FPC compiles insanely fast, but larger projects can still get caught up with the linker. [1] https://github.com/rui314/mold/tree/v1.0.0

I really enjoy the color scheme of their site. As some work arounds though, the site works well with reader mode in Safari and Firefox. Also check out Dark Reader by Alexander Shutau for Firefox. That may help alleviate some eye pain. htt

I second this. A good onboarding process is a patient one. It should involve lots of mentorship and paired programming. Agile shops can easily onboard people during an active sprint. Then they pair with others, QA other tickets, and sit in

I agree, in fact I wish there was one more layer that separated layout from styling. Keep padding, but tear out flex box, grid, margin, etc and have a VFL like language instead. Too be fair flex box and grid are pretty good. I just wish I d

Yes, but it's very rare now a days. I live in JVM land and there are quite a few native JNA libraries that I have run into issues with. One example is vlcj [1] I just ran into yesterday. I have yet to dig deeply into the issue just

That line also annoyed me. I think this person has a lot more self reflection to do about their insecurities. I am glad he has begun to recognize there are some issues and I hope he is able to continue to improve himself.

I'm not sure Pascal entirely lost due to just C. Borland's Turbo Pascal was quite popular and was broadly used in the mid 80s. Apple even used their own Object Pascal variant through-out the 80s. Pascal was primarily used for ap
