Plenty of (third-party) imports specifically reference "*.js" files so no, this doesn't work.

> either naming your file `.mjs` But why? This makes it much harder to ensure that identical code works in browser and nodejs, to the point where I sometimes just can't use nodejs. And I don't use package.json, so having to nam

About 50k die each year while the total number of people that survived after onset of symptoms can be counted on two hands. "Basically if you get it you die" is a quite good description. The vaccine is more a way to ensure you don

I've never been able to do anything meaningful in GIMP, but Krita is relatively nice to use. It's much more intuitive than GIMP, and even things you have to look up and learn are easier to get used to and remember, because the UI

https://github.com/tc39/proposal-do-expressions Allows you to contain temporary variables to where they are needed, rather than having them remain active through the remainder of the current scope. You could do that wi

What are your thoughts on the do expressions proposal? Cause I think they'd be awesome for cleaner scoping of temporary variables.

ArXiv is great. I encourage anyone to submit their work there in addition to submitting to a peer-reviewed venue. Thankfully, they're compatible with overleaf nowadays. There was a time when arxiv didn't accept stuff from overleaf

WebGPU is essentially a mobile-phone graphics API, as it focuses support towards the lowest common denominator (both in hardware, and the underlying graphics APIs). Similarly to WebGL before, it will always be half a decade to decade behind

The mean is something you can easily compute progressively and with trivial resources. Median and percentiles, on the other hand, can be super expensive and potentially unsuitable for some real-time applications, since you need to maintain

Second one is way easier to read, even though it's verbose on purpose.

Matrix/Element's UX is abysmal, it's not a viable alternative to anything. I continue to get 4 popups (two of them modal) every time I login, and I have to login every time I open it because it doesn't remember logins. A

GIMP's use interface is the reason I switched to Krita. Nothing ever worked as expected in GIMP.

I'm not doing anything. Same thing happens on Firefox on one PC, and chrome on another. But only for Element, all other web pages have no issue with persistent logins.
134.
by mschuetz 5y ago
Ok, it's actually 4 popups, 2 of which are modal: - "Verify login" (now always skipping this one because I need to do it every single time I login, and I need to login every time I visit the page) - "Are you sure?"

Any other website with login manages to remember my login. Not sure what causes it, but it's not fun.

And buggy. Element/Matrix is the worst chat app I have to use on a semi-regular basis. I have to click away three modal popups during every single login, and it doesn't remember logins so I have to login every time I visit the pag

In my case, it did involved reading binary files from ArrayBuffers where some attributes were stored as int64. I've been using DataView to read BigInt64s and then used those frequently. Was terribly slow. I've then reverted to alt

That's google and it's to be expected because many of the largest companies have a strict no GPL policy, naturally including AGPL. Doesn't mean tens of smaller startups won't use AGPL licensed software for their SaaS ser

Mainly talks about linking AGPL projects. What about just "using" AGPL projects? Like you'd use a precompiled ffmpeg, cat, grep, etc. without ever touching the source.
