So I'm glad this is being done, but the "attack surface" that's being resolved sounds like a bit of a joke... "Alice, a system administrator who contributes to a Linux distribution, is building her binaries on serve

Decentraleyes is fantastic. Makes the internet way more usable from China. But I guess my point was that if Apple crammed a first-party-only system down our throats and 20-30% of the population was forced into this new paradigm - then that

I think it'd be nice to have a browser option where it simply won't load content from outside of the current domain. Though at the moment that would break a lot of the web, it'd be a much more neutral solution. To me what&#x2

I see the limitation.. but I must be missing some subtle distinction b/c isn't Flutter doing essentially the same thing under the hood? "The engine’s C/C++ code is compiled with Android’s NDK, and any Dart code is AOT-c

I mean, if you're gunna use C++ libraries, is there a reason not to just make the whole app in C++ (like with Qt/QML)? Seems adding a new language/toolchain to the mix is a recipe for headaches. That's a genuine question

Does anyone have insight into what they're been working on recently at Github? I feel like the user experience hasn't changed/improved in the last couple of years at all. It feels to me like there is a lot of low hanging frui

I don't quite get what issue you had with Hunter, thought if you actively try to not learn the standard tool - CMake, then you're gunna have problems... It works flawlessly for me. I literally clone a repo, give it the correspondi

Anyone have a Mobi for this?

I wrote up a little thing about all the alternatives https://geokon-gh.github.io/hunterintro.html . Tldr: Hunter is by far the best options and makes CMake painless. It also solves some multiple-dependency and toolchain iss

I've only done a bit of GPU kernel writing, but I always found it very .. unergonomic. Its like they mashed C to work in a context it wasn't meant for. Which is understandable since you want to encourage adoption, but I'd gue

that's nice it hooks back into your system. I might just have to try it :)

So they will run on X11 that's from Debian stable? Will for example Emacs read your .Xresources from your home directory? I've been eyeing this setup with Guix but I have some concerns. If I install a newer version of GCC through

Thanks for making that btw - what's the Clojure scene like in China?

I haven't found a place that explains the big picture and how everything fits together. Is there a good resource to learn clojurescript for someone who's never done web programming and without having to learn JS? I'm learning

It's been a few years since I've had to do it - but back then I just used the Visual Studio disassembly. You can get something similar (but more messy) with objdump. Godbolt seems like a good solution now-a-days, but you still nee

It's always kinda humbling to see how much performance is still left on the table in some base/core libraries everyone uses. It'd be nice to have seen what the compiler output is in comparison - and explore if there is a way

Gotcha. After reading a bit more it sounds like WASM isn't supposed to really be the common target for all "web-languages". ie. Javascript won't be compiling to WASM any time soon. It's just a parallel mechanism to

The tools for working with WASM are here: https://github.com/WebAssembly/wabt The compiler/converters are here: https://github.com/WebAssembly/binaryen Maybe someone who knows more could help

How's the interplay btw GodotScript and C++? (and the several other scripting options they give you) I've played a bit with Unreal, so I'm not very qualified to have opinions, but I really like how the system is mostly a C++

I'd like something so I can use the web from China (without a VPN) . Right now a lot of the common JS/fonts/etc from Google break - and webpages go wonky. Is there a way to preload a cache?

right, so things that are not part of the language, not crossplatform and not crosscompiler. That's called fighting the language in my book :) I'm not saying you can't get C++ to output the assembly you want - it just sucks t

by geokon 9y ago
Being a C++ dev, I think you're on-point about the reason people still choose C++ but my suspicion is that it part truth, part group-think and it won't really hold out. I could be totally wrong, but have you had to optimize a tigh

Thanks for clearing it up for me. So the pipeline is there but it's stateless... that sounds cool and I guess I really need to try it out. Using OGL a bit it definitely has this weird archaic feeling with all its state. I found it kind
925.
by geokon 9y ago
Have you done anything with OpenCL? Because what a lot of people describe kinda sounds like OpenCL where there isn't really much global state or a predefined pipeline. On a high level you're just sending kernels to be executed on

Thanks for getting back to me and thanks for your amazing work. Seems POCL doesn't support a few things: http://portablecl.org/docs/html/features.html I'll need to dig around a bit more. The OpenCL driv

(comments on your previous posts are closed, so I'll ask here) Does ClojureCL work with POCL[0]? I ask b/c ARM seems to have abandoned OpenCL-on-CPU with NEON, but it can still be done using POCL[1]. I've gotta say, ClojureCL

Feels like Emacs would be perfect for e-ink since by default it doesn't really do any scrolling or "dynamic"/moving-across-screen stuff
