I've been using GIMP since at least middle school. I learned about color, layers, opacity, paths, etc all from GIMP. It has always been free, available, and it doesn't change too fast. I have used photoshop for advanced feature

I am getting so burnt out on the condescending 'old guard'. I have no time for graybeard curmudgeons. OP linked two websites as bad examples... and they both totally work, so what? "You can even run into serious security flaw

I may be talking out of my ass, as I've never used it, but this is my impression of most smalltalk environments, that they just expose objects and functions, not files. For example: https://pharo.org/features.html un

For what language? Because I use VSCode for C (microsoft's C/C++ plugin with intellisense) and Typescript (built-in) and it works pretty dang great.

And who would keep the data centers running? The invisible hand of the market? Labor does stuff.

I'm hopeful that Deno can be just that runtime. Since its a single binary, its trivial to install and script for. TBH, I don't have any technical reasons for JS/TS over python besides that I have coworkers that have never h

I've done pretty much the same thing with idle games. They make me really obsessive. I edit a save file or inject some javascript in the console once I've decided to quit. Once I have infinite resources, I can see how shallow th

I'd say that roland drum machines and bass synths would be up there, especially in the past 30 years.

If they were available for purchase to non-developers, how would that be early availability? That would just be a release.

$100 is nowhere near enough, but you estimate it at $105 with a $25 parking fee?

FWIW, lots of web devs here. Thats why this is in the guidelines: Please don't complain about website formatting, back-button breakage, and similar annoyances. They're too common to be interesting. Exception: when the author is p

That whole exchange is very different than what I have seen. Its actually alarming how reasonable he sounds in this clip. Believe me, I think he was an awful president, and I voted against him twice, but this is what I wish my liberal pee

Baseless Anecdote: I once met a man that claimed he took acid more often than that in the 70s. He said he would get intravenous B vitamin supplements to trip more often. not really arguing anything, I just found his story fascinating.

I have used this, and have recommended it vehemently to people who I thought it could help. It has a very specific target demographic, in my mind. If you are a developer, and you need to bash out a full design, this tool provides excellent

If Boeing was socialized, that'd be one thing. Boeing paid $11.7 Billion dollars in stock buybacks in the two years preceding this fiasco. All the money they ever needed was already there. Instead, they spent the money inflating execu

You should check out Rocksmith. Its guitar hero with real guitar, pretty cool stuff. I don't see how a scrolling format like guitar hero would fit the slow refresh rate of an e-ink display, but perhaps you imagine something different

It might seem ridiculous to section off the entire world with armed guards and determine who can go where based on the lottery of birth.

The numbers already exist and have existed. It is their job to be journalists, convey a comprehensible narrative from facts. Also keep in mind that is the opinion section. I doubt the author would object to changes in tax structure, etc.

I am really digging the code. Clean, modern, vanilla js! The amount of polish in this game is very appreciated! I see that the assets were made in blender. I hadn't thought to use pixel-art textures with low-poly in that way. It lo

I find it really naive to treat science like some kind of objective methodology that can output unbiased data. Its complete fantasy. "Science" is much more of a set of institutions and social regard for those institutions than an

Ebay has seller reviews, and I know who the seller actually is. More importantly, ebay doesn't mix the inventory of every seller. I buy everything I can on AliExpress now, because if I'm gonna get chinese knock-offs, they should
