I was thinking the same thing so I dived in the example. And now I understand why there wasn't a code snippet in the README: even a minimal app seems to requires multiple files in many subdirectories. I guess java stays Java, even when

So, that's not really IPFS support in cURL. It is just a support for IPFS' urls as it actually consists in rewriting them to use a HTTP gateway, which will actually do all the IPFS work. I understand that implementing the IPFS p

How do TUI software like nano or tmux that support mouse input behave under Wayland? Do mouse inputs work as they should? Has someone here who's using Wayland give it a try? I have no idea how ncurses (I guess) interacts with the mouse

Is there a way to do the reverse, i.e., seeing the computer screen on an Android device? Specifically I would love a way to use my Android device as a remote controller for PDF presentation. For now I can do this with KDE Connect but the re

A single transaction for the whole user session? That seems a bad idea. Also I'm not sure you can do transactions during another transaction, and I need them for other purpose, i.e., for what they were designed to do (doing changes in

When an application loads a document, for example if the document is formally a list of things (imagine a very simple TODO app), the usual approach is to have this data represented (modeled) as an actual list in your program, like a Python

Yes, I am aware of that, and you are right about this in general. In my particular case however, it is preferable to loose some work in the rare cases were a crash occurs than to have a copy of the file in some place that the users are not

I'm currently working on an application where I use SQLite as the file format. I want to keep a usual workflow for users where you can make edit to your document and it only changes the file when you save it. So to open a file I copy i

I also immediately thought of jslinux but it's actually not the same thing: it's not Linux compiled to wasm running directly in the browser, it is a hardware emulator in JS and Linux (and a few other OSs actually) running on the e

Nice job! I was expecting the usual "I made a window manager in JS" type of web OS, but this is an actual OS as in a kernel + userland programs that can run on it. It seems that the file system is systematically queried over HTTP

Thanks for sharing this very interesting link (I actually knew it would be good before clicking simply because of the domain name)! If this sort of internal view of git interests you, I strongly suggest reading the "DIY Git in Python&q

Can anybody add context on why this is newsworthy? The linked email isn't very informative. Is there an awaited new feature in 6.5 that makes this email (which is not even an actual announcement of the release) noteworthy?

Not only. Just like when actually coding to implement a given specification you find yourself refining the specification and discovering edge cases that weren't taken into account etc., when you actually start writing for other you nee

I always write SQL code directly, but that's mostly because I actually enjoy writing SQL queries :).
