Why bother when you can simply rebrand Chromium?

#2: To be fair it is reasonably easy to make a cc_static_library_binary-ish rule which merges all transitive .a-s (just generate an ar script and call archiver). But I have to admit that I spent non-trivial time on maintaining our "CRO

Yeah, it totally makes sense. It just shows that people are not paranoid enough to give up their usual performant OS and invest in OpenBSD :)

Having gone through this twice, I'd say it is not that difficult, but could take reasonably huge effort. On par with turning your crufty CMakeLists to be so called "Modern CMake" (whatever that means). But, why? Bazel is very

OpenBSD developers do not need high performance, so naturally OpenBSD and its components are usually just not optimized for performance. One famous case: About 15 years ago, someone made a patchset called HPN-SSH [1] for OpenSSH because: &g

In short, a stable ABI is a must for portable (and backward-compatible) binaries. It does not matter where the stable ABI is. It is fine to have a stable userspace ABI only if you control the userspace. (e.g. Windows)

Always on for VMs with the emulator shared filesystem attached. That's... a weird way for coding a feature flag, but I guess it "just works".

Feel free to ignore me. But let me explain: VSCode does not work at all for me without the "Remote SSH" extension. And the "Remote SSH" extension is proprietary and DRM-ed to be not work with the open source code. I don&

The thing is, linting your code is usually the IDE's job, but it kinda requires access to various stuff used for build, which is why the "push build to remote" model sometimes does not work or behave weirdly. For example, if

We are. These extensions have light DRM and they only work on the original VSCode release, which you paid with telemetry for.

Register as a one-man team and play. Just don't expect that you may qualify for the finals (unless you are geohot). Remember to read all challenges and feel free to skip a challenge if you get stuck. Though the news got posted a week l

No. The most likely reason in your case is the build system of the library you want to build uses some mix of POSIX shell script and GNU Make, which is ... hard to get right on Windows. It's not C/C++ specific, through installing

Writing to arbitrary file descriptor (because, well, a fd is just an integer, right?) is safe Rust. So, no.

npm lock file is platform-dependent, so people are reluctant to check it in.
