I always have an eerie felling when something like that has a dependency on 3rd party presence. Q&A section doesn't explain what happens when the subscription is no longer active, but the app is still installed. What happens when t

The absence of free offering is not a bug in this case, it's a feature.

Nope, it wasn't solved in UWP days, neither it's solved today. To satisfy my interest, I've tried creating WinUI app (aka UWP/WinRT) in Visual Studio 2026. And this is what I've got on the first app launch after com

My favorite example of that was when WinRT app .exe files could not be launched from the command line. Only via some Windows Store voodoo dance with approvals, signatures and "security" that made WinRT for developers essentially a

That was indeed a pain point, but not anymore after CSS flex layout became available some 10 years ago. It's not worse than WPF for sure. It's even better than WPF because you have access to tons of UI components and toolkits that

This has already happened de-facto. Optimize it properly, and the whole problem disappears.

The UI strategy of the future may very well be HTML. It's widespread, standardized, sufficiently performant, and pretty rich. What's still missing is deeper integration with native OS concepts and programming languages other than

Cursor works better for me than Claude Code. In my opinion, Claude intelligence is too narrow. Good luck explaining all the details to Claude, it tends to ignore them anyway. Like a middle-level SWE, it's too stubborn to appreciate the

Everybody says that bots put websites down, while marketing oriented folks start practicing AO (agent optimization) - to make their offerings even more available and penetrating. Good luck banning yourself from the future.

JS runtimes are fatty, so embedding one instantly adds at least 30-50 Mb of RAM usage. Imagine that you do this for just for a specific function (JSON processing) and your total RAM budget for a whole pod is around 256 Mb. No doubt, this ap

I presume that it's a difference between Windows OS editions. I turned it off too, but it wasn't as easy as one click, I had to use Group Policies to decrapify the adjacent aspects of the system. Group policies are not available i

No worries, this is just how manipulative relationships work: they always aim for unidirectional communication. You're obliged to consume the most important news from the most important entity on the planet Earth (Microsoft/Facebo

Sometimes you just have to run native software. In my case, that means macOS build agents using Xcode and Apple toolchains which are only available on macOS. It's not a pleasure to run them in a mutable environment where everything ha

While we have `sandbox-exec` in macOS, we still don't have a proper Docker for macOS. Instead, the current Docker runs on macOS as a Linux VM which is useful but only as a Linux machine goes. Having real macOS Docker would solve the pr

Go is just one language, while Dockerfile gives you access to the whole universe with myriads of tools and options from early 1970s and up to the future. I don't know how you can compare or even "replace" Docker with Go; they

There is no question that for-profit social network projects will end up as Twitter did. The only question is when. Ideally, the comment system should be either self-hosted or more fediverse-like. The rest is a temporary compromise that wil

I find this article profoundly insightful. On a side note, the text reminds me the good old days of internet, where everybody shared useful information without strings attached. No attention seeking, no ads, no emotional drama. Just spot on

It's not the truth. It's an observation, one of many. It does not look neat, it looks horrible. However, I am ok to give it a deeper nuanced appreciation than to just negate it right off the bat.
