I'm very curious about the performance gains from using Vulkan instead of OpenGL. How would this compare performance wise to nanoVG?

The app looks very nice. Which UI toolkit does it use?

For me it's hard to describe but I get a feeling of knowing how the other person feels from a face to face meeting. Keep in mind, this only works for people I know well and in person (close coworkers, girlfriend, etc.). I still get thi

I wish they made the trackpad smaller. They used to have (T420 and older) a smaller trackpad and a wonderful 7 row keyboard but they've since switched to a 6 row keyboard to have a bigger trackpad. That means I'm stuck on the T420

I had my hopes on mirasol[1] but they seem to have given up on the technology due to low yields. Imagine a laptop with this technology. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h1xEuR2mLh8

I couldn't agree more. I'm a full time Linux user and have recently switched to AMD because of their awesome open source support. My new system is the most responsive and stable Linux experience I've ever had. I just recently

There is nothing wrong with the syntax itself. Its simply that it's usually preferable to allocate variables on the stack. To do this, you would do: int var_a = 5; and use &var_a when you want to acess that variable as a pointer wi

Mirasol [1] was very promising in this regard. A reflective, bystable display is also one of my dreams. [1] http://www.the-ebook-reader.com/mirasol.html

I'm using Void Linux which uses runit. Systemd is fine but runit works just as well. Void Linux has a bunch of other nice things (musl, xbps, build system, etc.). It would be a shame to overlook this fine distribution.

Magit is my one of my favorite Emacs packages. It's not entirely intuitive at first but once you get the hang of it, it streamlines the git workflow to a very pleasant interaction. I highly recommend that anyone using Emacs and git giv

We run Gitlab in an LXD container with an Omnibus install. Everything works pretty well but those issues were caused by regressions in updates. There were new updates fixing those regressions within a few days but it still caused us quite a

I also really like Gitlab but the self-hosted instance I manage broke twice in the last month due to faulty updates :-/. First, the automatic notification e-mails stopped working until I did another upgrade. A later update broke issue

That work sounds really cool. Is it publicly available?

libOSTree is a great solution for this. The updates are based on crypto (sha256) can be atomic and allow for rollbacks. Yocto's meta-updater provides an easy to deploy integration of libOSTree. Even Qt has an OSTree layer.

I used redshift successfully for a time. It worked rather well but I don't know the current state (eg does it support wayland)

I can't recommend this book enough with a simple upvote. Awesome book!

I have a Yoga 2 Pro and a T420s (when the Ts still had nice keyboards). The T420s is a much more enjoyable machine for development work. This is mostly due to the screen being matte. This reflectivity of the screen affects me much more than

I really look forward to being able to compile WASM to native machine code. With a default link to an SDL canvas library, it would become something like a universal runtime for most media applications. You run that in a sandbox and you pret

That is exactly right. I'm a software engineer in Quebec. I have a degree in software engineering from an engineering school. I even have the option to have a license at which point I could call myself a profesionnal engineer. This is

I think there is also a huge benifit for OEMs: it would reduce the cost of developping a Ryzen system. If you're Asus and you want to make a Ryzen motherboard, you have to write or license a BIOS. If Ryzen supports coreboot, this is so

I've been using qutebrowser lately and I'm really liking it. It takes the whole vim thing even further than simple extensions.

I really liked TS-100 but it refreshed the screen 60 times a second even when nothing was changing which made my laptop really hot (my normal text editors don't do that ;D). I think they used unity which probably limited their optimiza

I had this exact same issue for two seperate updates (they didn't like a dual boot - same fix as yours). This is what convinced me to finally uninstall windows.

This is also the biggest pain point for me. I had it running on Ubuntu and didn't like the 'we ship nginx' philosophy so tried to install it on arch. After fixing a few obscure problems, I went with GOGS and it installed flaw

I could also be argued that education is the best way to keep them safe. Unfortunatly, most people (myself included) don't like to hear that what they are doing is retarded.

Why not coreboot?

I believe that they use many small motors instead of a big one because quadcopter like planes are controlled by changing blade speed and that bigger blades have much more inertia which limits the speed at which the rotation can bee acceler

It can easily be done by declaring a prototype of B: // file: A.h class B; class A { B* _b; }; // file: B.h class B { A* _a; };
