ubsan definitely has some warnings due to a few "technically UB" patterns used as optimizations in Qt as they are known-working on every target platform under the sun, but yeah, no crashes :) I'm only using this configuration

by jcelerier 9mo ago
eh, I daily-drive a -fsanitize=address -fsanitize=undefined build of Qt and actual memory bugs are almost never a thing - I think the only time I had some were in tooling executables such as qmllint, but not in the framework itself. Most of

If it depends on espeak NG code, the complete product is 100% GPL. That said, if you are able to change the code to take off the espeak dependency then the rest would revert to non-GPL (or even if it's a build time option that you can

But here we're talking about not being able to notice whether calc.exe opens in less than 300 milliseconds, not how fast we can react to it opening? It's the same thing with audio latency (and extremely infuriating when you'r

by jcelerier 9mo ago
yeah no. Ask musicians using computers - 50 milliseconds of latency between sound and movement is generally considered unplayable, 20 milliseconds is tough, below 10ms usually is where people start being unable to tell.

I mean, I don't want to disable upnp. The whole point of it is to not have to do forward manually. So my question is : if I want automatic port forwarding, and given that apparently UPNP is bad for some reasons that I don't know,

Conversely, I much prefer lowest latency at the cost tearing; when I'm forced to use windows I generally disabled the compositor there too whenever i could (I certainly don't use one under Linux and that's one of my reasons f

this is just not true. I just tried with one of my binaries which is 3.2G unstripped, and 150MB-ish stripped. Unstripped takes 23 seconds until the window shows up, stripped takes ~a second

For making music as much as I love the free audio ecosystem there's some very unique audio plugins with specific sounds that will never be ported. Thankfully bridging with wine works fairly well nowadays.

Linux didn't aim to be an OS in the consumer sense (it is entirely an OS in an academic sense - in scientific literature OS == kernel, nothing else).The "consumer" OS is GNU/Linux or Android/Linux.

by jcelerier 9mo ago
yes and that's what I'm saying, I find it crazy to not split the debug info out. At least on my machine it really makes a noticeable difference of load time if I load a binary which is ~2GB with debug info in or the same binary wh

What's wild to me is not using -gsplit-dwarf to have separate debug info and "normal-sized" binaries

What are you targetting? for instance all ESP32 now support GCC15 which has support for #embed. AVR also has GCC 15 toolchains for months, as well as ARM which also allows you to target STM32 and Nordic nRF stuff.

this is much older ; Joseph Fourier was already using "i" and "j" for indices in the 1800s. See page 209: https://www.google.ca/books/edition/OEuvres_de_Fourier_Th%C3...

One man's not-blocky-garbage is another's insufferable hell. Even at 4k I find YouTube quality to be just awful with artefacts everywhere.
