> Again, that's not what research shows. Type checking bugs are most definitely not the most common ones and typing doesn't really help with runtime bugs unless it's a strongly typed language. Can you point to that researc

But this doesn't happen in native UIs. I think this is because JS event handlers are asynchronous and not running within native event loop.

Is there any way to reduce lag between pointer and draggable? I once tried throttling updates via requestAnimationFrame but it didn't help much. Perhaps movement prediction?

The problem is structs and function signatures of standard APIs can have differences for each os/version combination.

Abstract over them meaning writing wrappers by hand?

The maps themself aren't any better in my neighborhood (or rather the the places on the map). I tried contributing once but OpenStreeMap ux and data model/tagging taxonomy is a convoluted mess too.

But can it generate bindings for multiple abi variants? This would seem extremely complicated to automate.

Yes, should've clarified I was talking about Android.

Doesn't even scroll properly (no acceleration). The UX of all open source mapping apps suck really bad, not even most basic interactions are done right.

On the other hand C/C++ APIs only truly exist in textual format. Without going through C you don't have access to type definitions (you have to redeclare them in Java) or macros (sometimes not even impossible). Structure layout mi

Most browsers are mobile so that won't work :) I was hoping there is some technical explanation how the compilation step works (especially what do they do to event handlers) but their documentation is very light on details.

Where did you find this information?

Perhaps simple language and lack of abstractions lead to less code reuse so you can more easily tell where a particular error is coming from without context (less possible code paths).

Isn't libarchive streaming only which would suck for exploring large zip/7z archives?

What's the license on the data? Needs grid view and export/api.

Ages ago XFS had a rather nasty behavior in case of power failure - any files opened for write would be deleted after restart. From what I remember this was by design. Has this changed?

I believe it's different because the law about trespassing doesn't say anything about effective locks or other methods of denying access. AFAIK it would be illegal to enter even if there was no door at all. I don't think the

Wouldn't huge pages and readahead make number of page faults and context switches potentially smaller than with read()?

Many filesystems, ext4 included, support inlining of small files directly in filesystem metadata to avoid such waste.

The detail error from example is pretty awful and missing any useful detail. Is it the limitation of the jsonschema library?

Looking at the OP comment before it was flagged, someone just did `s/slave/n****r/g` on the codebase. BTW It's pretty ridiculous that American censorship makes it impossible to even call out and criticize racism like in

Is there any work to make records actually usable out of the box? Things like copying or creating derived records are a huge pain (or slight pain with code generators) while other languages have solved this long ago (even JS and C#).
