You can have comments if you add a preprocessor (such as cpp) to your build pipeline. Also, I don't think json is that bad for quick software utities, if you're already using it for data interchange, there are parsers for every la

The whole Android ecosystem seems so immensely bloated and convoluted. A repository size of >80GB just to build an embedded OS? Memory requirements are also huge. The divergence from mainline linux, creating a new HAL interface, so much

I think recaptcha and captcha in general are very overused today, as they cause way too much inconvenience for the user. Why discriminate against robots so much? What's so wrong about crawling or using automated tools? With today&#x27

Hopefully, this will be humanity's last problem of this kind. Or, now that I think of it, hopefully it won't be.

I imagine there are some overheads (payment processing, taxes, accounting etc?) that make donations below $5 less useful.

Now, I would estimate the chances of this being your issue somewhere below 20%. But for me, there was a time when coding was a joy, I was completely in the flow writing efficient code, tweaking data structures to squeak out more performance

Yuck, their device sports a i.mx6 Cortex-A9 SoC, which has great software support (it's what Bunny used in the novena platform), but we're now in the age of ubiquitous and cheap AArch64 devices. Long story short, the imx6 is reall

Funny how the website only highlights the advantages of wood as a material, and plays down its disadvantages. Namely, a stiffer, more rigid frame is more efficient. I personally loved how my aluminium road bike rode, more so than steel, par
