Super cool project. Justine Tunney released the `pledge` cli [1] a couple years ago that does the same thing, wrapping Landlock. [1]: https://justine.lol/pledge/

Thank god we've never seen videos of Tesla cars exploding or catching fire. Clearly American batteries are superior.

Really excited about this SoC. A great review [1] by ThePhawx shows how it performs at various TDPs. At 15W it's on par with the 8840U, but from 20W on it blows it out of the water (capable of running Cyberpunk at 720p without upscalin

The iPad mini is a second-class product in Apple's lineup. It rarely gets updated, and if you use one you will see how poorly UI is scaled. I was really hyped up and really wanted one, but after using one I gave up on the idea. The 60

APE binaries usually come with an option to "assimilate": once downloaded, you can choose to only keep the stuff relevant to the platform you're currently using. Best of both worlds.

I wonder if it's because they're young and all the "Sigma, Alpha and Beta" memes led them to believe Alpha is better than Beta so it should come after. That would be really intersting.

Exactly this. I also expected the app to have the shell UI downloaded locally and only fill it with fetched data, but the slow load times and blank pages make me think it really just is a browser. Somehow worse than your typical Electron ap

As an alternative to ICU, there is suckless's libgrapheme ( https://libs.suckless.org/libgrapheme/ ) which is more than a 100x smaller and provides full Unicode compatibility.

The point is not the specific language, but the approach. The split from Serenity OS (and its "C++ only, no external dependencies" approach) made Ladybird a lot more attractive for both funding and potential contributors.

Very cool, but man pulling 900+ dependencies to build and run this thing feels awful. The NPM culture is out of control.

They have ALWAYS been very visible. They may have changed just like the cost of the VPS or whatever infrastructure you rent may change. I'm not arguing that serverless platforms have fair pricing—I don't think they do—but I'm

The rationale is explained in this README [1], but it basically boils down to transitive dependencies and the amount of checks the compiler has to do. From linked README: "If we `#include <string>` for the LLVM libcxx header cont
