This is excessively beautiful, both the website and the library's UI. But I have to ask: what's the rationale on dedicating such an elaborate and gorgeous website for just a library? Are you hoping to get hired for web design? Are

Even more evidence of how versatile that French phrase is. There's just so many acceptable meanings to it, and every one of them points to the same conclusion: bounds enable art.

It's so memorable, probably why it stick in my memory: how can you have a canvas without a wall? The wall is the canvas. Yet the wall simultaneously constrains the canvas, thus allowing it to become the canvas, to become worthy

Have you considered using AWS WorkMail? Very easy to set up, even helps you with MX/DKIM/DMARC/SPF if you use Route53, and only $4/month/user I believe. Granted, you won't get anywhere near Google's level

Are you sure? I thought it was Renoir or Batut, or Bresson, or perhaps Watteau, who, when asked for his most useful advice to a new artist, famously uttered this short and mysterious phrase. Could have sworn LaBeouf quoted it in an intervie

I don't know any project which uses the 2D canvas. It's horribly inefficient except for the most trivial use-cases (basically demos). Any serious web graphics uses WebGL and shaders.

I explained my point wrong. The author claims forking is impractical except when it's a last resort. My point is that it's not needed except when the need also creates the community.

The article is technically right, but only because the author misses the point. Yes, one or two persons can't maintain a fork of a giant project for long. But when you have a project with enough problems that there are thoughts of fork

Could you clarify an example of the ramifications? I tried looking through the C2Y standard draft to figure it out, but it's too complicated for me.

Tangent, but fantastic website. Honestly it was a pleasure just to read it and click around on it. I'm not sure if the design and idea was your own or part of some Jekyll theme, but the execution is just fantastic. Couldn't find

It's true. And technically many of them can afford takeout when it's too hard. But there's something healing about someone, whether family or friends, actually doing the act of helping in this way. It's a sort of trans

Smoe of these are definitely nice-to-haves*, but when you're evaluating a C++ alternative, there are higher priority features to research first. How are the build times? What does its package system(s) look like, and how populated are

It might be the language he is looking for, but it might not, and more likely than not is not. D is one of those odd languages which most likely ought to have gotten a lot more popular than it did, but for one reason or another, never quite

Side note, but I did not realize how unoriginal Warcraft was, until looking at these. Medieval RTS games have a special place in my heart. But I'm almost convinced it's because of nothing but pure nostalgia, being the first RTS I

That last part is exactly why I charge $999/hour. I'll offer a specific solution that takes me a week of full time work (14 hours each day -- I'm focused) for about $10k, which is roughly $150/hour if you want to calcula
