Both VS Code and Eclipse are open-source, so that's fine. Android Studio was also Eclipse with the serial numbers filed off, for example, before they switched to IDEA.

Hey, this is fantastic! Thanks!

Or just a few cents! Possibly that will only last until war in Taiwan, though, or until it becomes impossible to find anything but counterfeits.

Yeah, this is the Wheel of Reincarnation, but wasn't it Sutherland who wrote that up? And Myer? And in 01968? https://www2.cs.arizona.edu/~cscheid/reading/myer-sutherland...

I think that text is somewhat misleading because it leads people to believe that ordered dithering is not a kind of dithering, and also because the noise in general descriptions of dithering is not equivalent to changes in the threshold m

These are absolutely amazing, thank you! I had wondered whether something like this was possible because I have this 1-bit-deep screen here, and now I'm delighted to see that it is. I'm just not sure if my machine has enough CPU

Floyd–Steinberg is pretty great when your palette has reasonably-close colors.

This is common functionality in graphics software, but there isn't such a thing as "the best possible dithered image using the provided palette"; there are unavoidable tradeoffs between sharpness and color precision, so diffe

Error-diffusion dithering or dithering with a precomputed blue-noise or white-noise pattern are also deterministic. One standard point of view is that what introduces noise is quantization, in the sense that the quantized image has an unwan

I think that Fil-C, unlike normal C allocators, could use a copying GC instead of a tracing GC, because it isn't exposing the machine pointers to user code. But I don't know if it does. Copying GCs often suffer from high memory

Joe and Erich loved brown people. But, yes, targeting is a huge amplifier of the coercive force of violence.

They're trained how to kill them, and not to do so without orders.

You seem to be suggesting that code that crashes in Fil-C will often run successfully in YOLO-C, but that doesn't seem to be the case from Pizlo's LFS exercise. He's had to modify a few things, but not much. Generally, UB i

I don't know any 13-year-olds, but I hear that a lot of them do play Minetest.

Yes, it's a big problem, and what you're seeing is only the beginning.

Community can go a long way towards compensating for worse technology, yeah.

What's ironic about it? That's like saying it's ironic for soldiers to fire their guns while in a trench. They're doing things unto others that they would not have done unto them.

Walter Bright did, although maybe C++ has gotten enough bigger since then that your statement has become true.

"Filthy" is already extremely memorable.

Excellent! But probably open-source implementations will also continue to improve.

It's much less appealing because it's much harder to mod.

That's a function of what software you have running on it.

I like it too.

That's an excellent idea!

I already had KiCad installed, so I uninstalled it to see how long it would take. It took me 51 seconds to clone the repo and reinstall KiCad. I thought this wasn't too bad. But the joke was on me — when I tried to open the PCB file,

A lot of people seem to be spending huge chunks of cash on enormous monitors, dual monitors, curved monitors, etc., and the appeal of that is mostly that it gets you a little bit closer to wearing a head-mounted display.

It sounds like you might be looking for Minetest/Luanti.
