I usually write code every day but right now I don't have anything important to do. I started writing a graphical text editor / IDE as i wanted to do some GUI stuff, which I never did. But my heart is not in it, so i just randomly

Standard library often has access to low level code that the user space does not. Hence why it must be the most performant code there is. Period. As for the maps, there is no reason why swiss maps must be used for every key type. Optimising

STD is built on goroutines whereas these performance networking libraries are built on a main reactor loop. Hence the need for refactoring, not just tweaking. Something like http/v2 and net/v2. I know gnet had(has?) issues wit imp

Seems pointless. Go should focus on refactoring core libraries, especially net and http, for performance because nbio, gnet and others are kicking its ass. And that is sad, as third party libraries should never perform better than standard

as i said, nictoine is a non-factor. as for caffeine, i quit multiple times. once the headaches are gone, which takes a week or two, followed by another week, or few, of feeling lethargic, it is back to normal(ie. give it a month altogether

with js canvas, i am surprised "flash" has not made a comeback ages ago. maybe it is not flash itself but the concept that it represents that we have passed over already.

i am making a text editor/ide in Go and i too switched from raylib to sdl. it's likely one of the best graphics layers out there.

Microsoft lives off of what Oracle, RedHat, HP or even IBM live off - commercial support. To large corporations, having someone to blame and who can vouch for or guarantee fulfilment of signed contracts means more than anything else, becaus

PS: There is AnduinOS made by former(?) windows developer that is made to look like windows and make the transition smooth. So if looks and familiarity are what you're after the most, it might be good distro to start with.

There are three linux families that you should be concern with: 1. Debian 2. Fedora 3. Arch Debian is very stable but often lacks newer packages and changes. You have to wait for the new stuff sometimes quite a long time. Fedora is stable a

Exactly - how can a html page need to be trimmed to 250 KB??? That is insane. Something is not right with this article.

I chose markdown as main format for gethly.com but i needed to extend it with various features/widgets. This is where I found its limitations because i essentially ended up doing the same pattern with ::: block pattern, which you can s

On desktop, unknown OS cannot be anything else but Linux, so that's 20% altogether(16%+4%). But that does not matter. The shift has started last year when W10 support ended and due to how bad W11 is and it is just getting stronger and

Any text editor that requires you to learn to use it is not worth your time.

Most of this HW is at the end of its life. It's not about time but usage. And data centers use the HW to the limit.

You keep hoping things won't get too bad, but they will. You just keep delaying the inevitable. So it's better to switch now to get the initial hurdles of such a big change over with as soon as possible. It's not easy, gettin
