By the time you got done writing device drivers, etc. you would just have another OS. https://xkcd.com/927/ Also “without OS overhead” - things sitting in memory don’t necessary detract from performance, but not having

I’m not sure why the API wouldn’t implement Write for connection so you could do: connection.write_all(data) Where data could be an argument that impls ToOwned or Into so that it would either use the object you pass in (if by value

Doesn’t D require a GC to achieve the safety guarantees that Rust provides without one, and many third-party libraries require this GC? Just looking over a comparison between them on Reddit.

Hey, some of us enjoy putting buttons on a page (UI/UX) ;). However, I have to agree somewhat with the assertion that software is getting more specialized. When I started out, the advice I repeatedly got was not to worry about what pro

That tracks latency, but not throughput. Sure, a programmer may get a given ticket out the door 2x faster, but they may create 3x as much technical debt that winds up being addressed as separate tickets. That's a useful skill if you ne

I can sort of buy this. In Gravity things are probably a lot more robust than they actually should be, but collisions with debris or other objects tend to be immediately fatal for the vehicles involved. Debris at high velocity goes straight

I tried to use wxWidgets awhile back and gave up. It was a mess. Macros everywhere.

For the core and majority of the library, yes, but some specific features (eg Charts) have been released as commercial-only.

At least as of Qt 5, the main drivers were static linking, liability, and not having to say you’re using Qt, iirc.

The best pulse ox I’ve found is the O2Ring. It’s more comfortable than any other pulse ox I’ve used, it samples at a high rate and produces absolutely gorgeous output. The downsides: I don’t believe it integrates with OSCAR, and it’s a whop

How did you verify that it “fixed your apnea”? A CPAP does not require mouth breathing. Nasal pillows require you to breathe through your nose. If necessary they shut your mouth with a chin strap. A piece of 3m tape sounds dangerous for som

I love the idea of Nix, but it is pragmatically unusable in practice. I installed it on my work laptop running OS X, and doing anything with it would often lead to searching through obscure gitlab or forum posts. The core commands are unint
