Accessibility would be my immediate thought, although I'm not massively experienced in terms of GUI programming, so I could be off the mark here. With something like SDL2, I would have to interface with each operating system's acc

UK state schools absolutely suck. My experience mirrors that of the author in a lot of ways. I will say though, some of the content of this article appears outdated, and the author doesn't seem to have checked to see if their memory li

Somewhat confused by the naming choice here. Naming your company after something as fundamental as base64 encoding seems to inevitably lead to confusion down the line.

Honest question: Could you point to some examples of Wikipedia's "hideous" left-wing bias? Not trying to catch you out, I've just personally always been surprised by how neutral Wikipedia's political articles tend t

Thanks for the response. I can appreciate the difficulties you must be facing in organising something of this scale, and I'm impressed by how you're handling it so far. That said, would you be able to clarify how many spaces there

This is definitely interesting, but I feel it's already somewhat lacking in terms of transparency, which is obviously fundamental to the success of a worker co-op. From FAQ 3, the event is "free", but on closer inspection, wh

Just want to echo this. I've been using Bitwarden for about a year now, and a few months ago, my mum (not technologically literate) had her email hacked. Getting her set up with Bitwarden & teaching her how to use it was one of the

Wow, these look great! Does anyone know of any similar resources for mechanics, specifically the Hamiltonian & Lagrangian formulations? I've had a bit of trouble finding good resources online to supplement my mechanics modules at u

Just for a different perspective, I grew up in a very low income household, and the Pi was the only computer I was able to convince my mum to get me as an early teenager. "Cheap" is relative, and I disagree that the Pi wasn'

I definitely agree that's possible, but then they go over what a terminal is and what the "ls" command means, and how case-sensitivity and using commas in the correct places are important when programming, which strike me as

It's a fairly controversial pick amongst the C community, and it is a full book, but the first few chapters of 'Learn C the Hard Way' by Zed Shaw are (imo) a great resource to get started with the language, and also point you

This is a very strange "getting started" guide to C, and I'm not sure who the intended audience could possibly be. The tone at the start really does seem to be aimed at "absolute beginners" ("[...] programs mus

Hey, could you point me to where the political leader you're referring to has actually called for punishing opposition supporters? The tweets she actually wrote only explicitly ask for archiving things people have posted publicly, no
