Mostly not, but the formats and limited available tooling is designed to dovetail with existing offerings. Adoption is extremely low despite fairly easy implementation of most features.

Also the Mozilla originated Fluent project for localization is another example of a stand out approach. It would be interesting to see how localization fits with the Ladybird browser project as a whole. Making use of a custom implementati

That isn't the plan. For this to work new versions have to be aggressively adopted. This is about accepting that using an open source project means adopting that code. If you had an internal library with bug fixes available then the

Alternatively, if you rely on some code then download a specific version and check it before using it. Report any problems found. This makes usage robust and supports open source support and development.

Documentation and comments mostly. Project goals, methods, status, reference documents explaining all components in detail. When developing try whenever possible to lead by writing tests that demonstrate a feature is actually working. Wh

Strange how aesthetics consistently get the highest priority for architectural decisions. My understanding is the biggest real criticism of five over one designs is that as built most of the wood is not wood as most understand it, but vari

IDEs can be useful, but can also weaken developers. People get used to the IDE keeping track of bloated, overly complex interfaces. Autocompletion also leads to a style of development where every term must be defined before it can be used

Hard to find a link with all the noise, but there was a big employer in Singapore that studied work from home well before COVID and started to switch to remote work because it made employees so much more productive. Yet this piece casually

What happiness is to different people can vary wildly and may ultimately be rather shallow. Satisfaction is often easier, more practical, more rewarding, and less fragile than happiness.

That is the shape of housing market corrections. Housing prices are sticky because of a range of financial and emotional reasons. Because of this prices hardly ever crash outright. What happens instead are periods of price stagnation whi

That is not a good comparison. NeXT was far more than "a BSD". It was a whole bunch of frameworks, development tools, applications, and a hardened team that had already ported to several other architectures. BeOS was still most
