How would this work on 2 or 3 monitors. Asking this, since any serious content creator tool end up using windows across monitors, and there you need good docking support. Qt has some, but not all the way there, like Visual Studio has (but t

If I'm not mistaken, there were plenty of text protobuf files internally used for a lot of things, and much much less anything less (okay, xml was prevalent for our team, maybe due to being java-inclined). Even seen examples of text pr

Several times in my software engineering career, I've experienced cases where super-optimizing a system leads to later removing the optimzation due to critical bugs found much later (threading, racing conditions, producing invalid data

good thing to have in an FFI system is ability from one language to call another from callback, and back and forth (if it need to). I believe Dart allows for that. That to be said, stack walking is going to be painful to decode (probably),

imgui has special applications, but it's becoming ready for more general use - especially in game tools where you want densely packed content over 3D render (or not even).

Flutter has been trimming down, to ~15-20mb on my windows, but does not rely on any outside webtech. Another good example is Dear imgui, it's even smaller, and portable almost anywhere... And plenty of other examples...

I get it that this metric sounds to be the only good one, but lockdowns surely have minimized certain other deaths (car accidents, etc.). Thoughts? (Haven't read the links, or articles, so it might be mentioned there)

Same thing in Bulgaria. One good side of "communism" was free modeling clubs for kids like me, so we've got rocket modelling (made 2, even 3 phase rockets while 3rd-4th grade), plane modelling (balsa wood, rice paper, etc.) -

But mainly for that reason, I would like to keep as much as backward compatibility, and if I have need to add a field, I can do it without changing some other function. (If need to, I'll add it in both places). Hard to tell really, for

I dunno. I'm simply recalling what I remember as best-practices by memory, could've been wrong about some of them, but for my own protobufs that I use I keep the same practice.
