The contents of that post have not been relevant for decades. I would recommend giving Free Pascal a whirl if you haven't. FPC can even compile to JavaScript and it works with WebGL https://github.com/genericptr/Pa

It's going to be a lot better thanks to proton. I cannot stress enough how well proton works. And if you have games that are not on steam take a look at Lutris. Lutris has worked wonders managing my Wine versions for online games suc

This is an artifact of not allowing 32-bit applications on Catalina. It seems silly to blame Valve over this. Have you considered setting up bootcamp for gaming? Otherwise you can pick up fairly cheap refurbished laptops off eBay or amazon.

It's interesting I just started learning Racket and I can already whole heartedly endorse it. The language is incredibly well documented and has a lot of image manipulation tools you can get started with right away. This is great for

I fooled around with a Spark java, j2html, and Bulma css web app for a prototype back in 2017 (2018?) and it killed me how nice it was. The only tooling I needed was Intellij and the app started in milliseconds along with supporting hot rel

As an alternative that still relies on REST instead of web sockets is intercooler.js. It's a nice little framework for annotating html to give it more power. This little library seemed to have some buzz at the time it was first releas

I stumbled upon this looking into BGFX[1]. I've been looking for an abstraction layer over Vulkan and Metal and it has come down to BGFX and Diligent Engine[2]. Diligent is still a bit lower level than I'd like, so I started poki

Nearly all code regardless of advanced features can run into severe maintenance issues when domain knowledge is lost. Solving problems should not start with gate keeping features, but promoting better documentation.

I don't agree with this line of thinking. This implies that after a certain period of time, you will have the insight to know these things are bad. If you don't agree, then are you just a bad programmer? If I have a differing opin

Unfortunately you get this with students at every school. Many are just there to skate by and get a degree. The OP could also just know the material already and had no issue being able to pass as quickly as possible. This is something that

I'm glad to see others attending WGU. I worked in the industry for a little while, but I couldn't take web dev any longer and decided to go back to school. I've enjoyed the CS program quite a bit, especially the self-pacing.

JavaFX was split out from the JRE and is now its own package[1]. It very much "happened" and there are plenty[2] of people using it. If you are looking to build a fully themed app similar to a web app Swing or JavaFX are definite

I haven't found the Layout system to be lacking or too difficult to deal with. My only issue with it is how verbose it feels sometimes. The operation of layout and layoutData can be a bit confusing. You can always roll your own layou

A super simple test on Ubuntu I did back in November got me a 14mb executable consuming about 23mb of ram and about 38mb once the app was full screened. I'm pretty happy with the size considering the smallest runtime I can get with jl

I'm a big fan of using plain SWT[1] without JFace. In fact GTK4 support is already being work on! I tend to see a lot of developers think of Eclipse Platform UI/JFace[2] when they see SWT. Eclipse Platform UI is Eclipse's a

Something that has boggled my mind everytime I tried out Freepascal is its link time. This is something that I feel tends to get glanced over in Nim or D circles. Both advertise fast compilation, and they do compile quickly, but my experie

Start time is not a great measure of overall performance. Also you are comparing two very different types of applications. A text editor that can be extended vs a platform application is the same argument we've been having about vim v
